I’m taking this week off because Dora has had a serious operation – her condition was an intestinal intusussception – and she has been very poorly indeed. It’s where the intestine telescopes back in on itself so she needed 10cm removing. She was in the animal hospital for five days …

[unpaid/sample/affiliate/ad] Clarifying Detox Shampoo looks like it’s replacing the Triple Detox Shampoo – the best detox shampoo I’ve ever used – and thankfully is proving just as efficacious. I got a great press release with this new iteration of detox from Living Proof that properly explains how the formula works. …

[unpaid/sample] It’s not often I come across a product where I just say yes without having tried it at all. But Caroline Hirons has formulated a beautifully gentle exfoliating toner that all skin types and any age skin (other than very young) will benefit from in terms of clarity and …

[unpaid/sample/affiliate/ad] e.l.f. is on a roll at the moment – these e.l.f. Pout Clout Lip Plumping Pens I think are their homage (cough) to Hourglass Phantom Volumizing Glossy Balms (£36 each). Now, I love the Phantoms but if I was buying them myself, I’d have one – just on a cost basis. …

[unpaid/sample] I’ve learned from this fragrance that angelica doesn’t smell anything like I imagined it would. Somehow, I thought of it as a sweet, cloudy note – maybe cotton-candyish, but that couldn’t be further from reality. Somehow I’m disappointed because it sounds so delicious. I’m not in the least disappointed with …

[unpaid/sample/affiliate/ad] If there is a perfect candle to bring spring into your home, it’s the new Miller Harris Scherzo candle. I love sweet florals which Scherzo has in abundance but the note that is the most charming for this time of year is the narcissus which comes through so beautifully. …

[unpaid/sample/affiliate/ad] Bobbi Brown’s new member of the Vitamin Enriched team. It’s a milky serum with smoothing and glow enhancing elements and is designed to be used under Vitamin Enriched Face Base (although, of course you can use it under whatever moisturiser you already have.
