The EcoTools Bamboo Kabuki Finishing Brush


The EcoTools Bamboo Kabuki Brush is my new favourite 'finishing' and 'blending' brush. I use between every layer of make-up (after foundation, after concealer, after bronzer, after blusher, after powder) to ensure the makeup is completely blended and worked thoroughly into the skin. It's SO soft and light and when used with product (I use with bronzer and with blot powder) it leaves the lightest, sheerest finish The contoured bamboo handle gives you an easy grip which is an added bonus.

Suit Yourselves - Monki Tee & Topshop shorts





This Monki tee is the perfect mix of style, attitude and comfort and the tee has a laid-back look to it without being dramatically oversized and baggy. I paired it with pink high waisted topshop shorts and my favourite ASOS Amp Chelsea boots – this outfit is so casual and loose fitting I needed to avoid looking like an overgrown eight year old - hence the addition of the killer boots.

AXA PPP healthcare expert live chat on Skin Cancer - Tuesday 29th May.




That's me, on an eight hour boat trip from Koh Tao to Koh Phi Phi in Thailand. It was crowded, uncomfortable, claustrophobic and just pretty damn horrible. But that's not why I'm hiding. Oh no. The reason I'm hiding my face behind that super stylish hat is because I was so severely sunburnt that my face had erupted in painful bubbly blisters. The day before my cousin decided she was 'too far behind in the tan-off' so promptly threw down her beach towel and parked herself on the sand all.day.long - slathered from head to toe in oil.

Kim Kardashian launches Quicktrim in the UK







Earlier tonight I headed down to the stunning St Pancreas Renaissance Hotel where the equally stunning Kim Kardashian was launching QuickTrim - the weight management product that she is the face and body of. Kim donned a tight-fitting black dress with cutaway mesh panels and was sporting her signature smoky eyes paired with significantly shorter locks and I was blown away by how beautiful she looked in the flesh.

Batiste 'Wild'



I’m a die-hard Batiste fan and have been for years. There are lots of dry shampoos popping up but none compete with Batiste in terms of performance and price! I always have a few cans in my bathroom and I’ve tried nearly all of the variations and have concluded that the ‘Wild’ version is my favourite.

Thankyou AnnaLynne McCord.


When I was little I always asked why Rachel from Friends looked so perfect all the time and why didn't I look like that. My mum explained over and over again that there was a hair and makeup artist on set to fix her appearance every time so much as a hair fell out of place and that how people looked on TV 'wasn't realistic'. It took me a long, long time to realise that the images we see in the media are truly an illusion and even now I find myself sometimes feeling depressed as I flick through glossy magazines or am sat in my PJs watching an episode of The Kardashians, at the fact everyone looks goddamn picture-perfect-all-the-time.
