    The Decline of the Well Put Together Lady

    I'm not sure if this trend has grown outside of the UK yet but this Xmas 'Onsies' were all the rage where I live- and not just for loungewear- the ones in the fashion mags were 'Lusekofte OnePieces' ($229)- which are designer knitted one-peices with a Fairilse pattern, worn with Uggs- worn...

    Weird info I came across... Marilyn and Liz

    Hi Straycat I think it was a terrible reaction! My skin is normally very resiliant- i can use harsh scrubs and acids and i have a Clarisonic which I use with the deep pore brush head on the max setting with no probs. I know my skin does respond badly to damage- I get dry patches and...

    Your beauty mistakes

    Wearing very cool silver/ grey/ blue/ violet shades against my blue-grey eyes- just sucks all the life out of my eyes. Burgundy and plums suit me much better and make my eyes sparkle. I also discovered that Pinky Lilac/ sugarplum purple don't look loud but really makes my eyes appear blue.

    Weird info I came across... Marilyn and Liz

    So .....I did it. Did it give me a glowing complexion? Did it give me clearer pores? Did it give me a smoother base for foundation? No, no,no. It gave me a face full of pimples (with no initial look of bright clear skin-in fact no difference at all), then a day or two later all the...

    Finding the Palest Foundation

    Its not full coverage no, more semi- full. If you applied it really thickly it'd probably turn chalky. i returned most of the stuff actually. The concealer and powder were horric, as was the blush. I would buy the 001 foundation again but only as a mixer. I have the Barry M white foudation at...

    Best beauty decision you've made?

    Pardon me for jumping in. The Clarisonic is a sonic facebrush. It vibrates and shskes debris out of your pores. It is quite expensive and there are cheaper versions around but they are not sonic- they just have a rotating brush. I have the regular Clarisonic version (there is a travel sized one...

    Best beauty decision you've made?

    My latest beauty 'discovery' is that although I use a really nice cream cleanser & toner to remove my make-up at night,I really need to wash my face too (I uase my clarisonic and Clarins face wash). I have combination skin with tiny pores- so any small amount of grease blocks my pores on my...

    Bobby-pin storage

    I wish that the lady who owned my house before me had stored her pins properly. I have a 1930's house which was owned by the same couple since it was built. They didn't do much to it since the 30's (so we had a LOT of work to do)... ..... but one of the biggest pains was that evrytime we...

    Finding the Palest Foundation

    Review of Dainty Doll Line: Foundation: Texture- sheer but creamy. Very nice to use.Can be chalky on dry skin though, escpially the lighter shades. 01 extra light- nearly white, slight pinky tinge. Like Illamsqua 105- but better texture. 02 light- about NC10, very yellow toned 03...

    Finding the Palest Foundation

    I have given up on MAC- the undertones are either very yellow or very peachy and I need a rose pink undertone. But..... I think I've found my perfect foundation. On a day -to day- basis I wear True match C1 mixed with a little Dainty Doll in 001 (almost white) and for evening I have Dainty...

    Not trying to be cute, but...

    I was just complaining about this today. I am 5 foot nothing tall with round eyes and mouth and button nose- all my life I have been referred to as that dreaded word 'cute' and faced with being called 'adorable'. I have just been saying today that even in the Goth club i frequented years ago...

    Do you see a time when you stop wearing vintage?

    I can't see it for me. It just fits and wears so well. I'm still transitioning from my old Goth/ Industrial style and have days when I want to go to clubs more deiselpunk and wear red eyeshadow- but overall my lookis more classic and I think always will be. Plus- I'll be in fashion again soon...

    Dita Von Teese

    Funnily enough I saw a photo shoot with her the other day with distinctly visible blonde roots- oops! Also I never realised how big her shoulders were in comparrison to her hips, suffice to say it was not a good photoshoot- but then she is allowed an off-day.
