I like to think I am a bit of a whiz when it comes to styling my hair.
At times I can be a little OTT, but I like it to sit with bounce, shine and the perfect wave, is that not too much to ask? (I warned you I am over the top). I am lucky to have an incredible hairdresser, and I have pretty much copied (sorry Marie) all of her A-grade styling tips, which allows me to master great hair at home.

All of you know I am a big fan of active skincare – I have been raving about (here and here) its benefits for years, but I also have some other tips for glowing skin to share with you, and that’s the importance of peels, lasers, and intensive exfoliation treatments. These deeper treatments are how you actively fix your skin problems (be it pigmentation, acne, bumpy skin, uneven skin tone or fine lines, etc.) and work alongside all the good work you do with active skincare. It’s the finishing touch that really makes your skin sing.

The lipstick shade I choose to wear each day is just as important as the clothes I wear. I am a girl that has always been lipstick obsessed (in my handbag you will find 10 different shades at any time because I need them all right?) and wearing certain colours changes my mood instantly.

The first thing on my mind in the morning is coffee, and the cup that my home coffee machine spits out just doesn’t cut it. So that means I need to get out of the door quickly. As much as I love my makeup (on the weekends I go all out). During the week, it’s all about getting it done as quick as I can so I can tackle the work day. One beauty product that I must wear every day is mascara. I am not fussy with foundation, bronzer or even blush, but I need that little black lacquer coated on my lashes or else I don’t feel like me. I have long lashes, but they are annoyingly straight, so I am always on the hunt for a great mascara. I have tried all the expensive brands that promise the world, but they just don’t cut it, especially with their high price tag.
The crisp weather is well and truly here. I shouldn’t complain, as these chilly days are the perfect excuse for curling up on the couch and watching my favourite TV shows (hello, Game Of Thrones). It also allows me to layer up with my favourite winter warmers. Leather, tan and grey on grey have been on repeat.
The weather combined with my hectic work and social schedule does play havoc on my skin. It’s super dry, flaky, and rough combined with my usual oily patches around my T-zone. Yep, it’s not a pretty site.
