  • Leighton Denny: International Collection

    A couple of weeks ago, I popped into see the new spring/summer collection from Leighton Denny.  The new polishes usher in the season with vibrant, carnival shades flattering for all skin tones. There is also a nude shade for those a little shy. Housed in the slick Leighton Denny square bottles with the nail expert’s name…

  • A face-lift for John Lewis’s new beauty hall

    Yesterday Helen and I were taken on a personal tour of John Lewis’s multi-million pound new beauty hall at their flagship store on Oxford Street and what an experience it turned out to be. Costing over £7 million to revamp and a whopping 18,000 square feet of retail space, if heaven is all bright white…

  • My Leighton Denny Collection

    I thought I’d use this quiet time between Christmas and New Year to show you some more of the polishes I have swatched by brand. This is a massive undertaking, and yes, I am quite possibly insane but I’ve been enjoying it so far (even if my cuticles haven’t). So, today,  I have my Leighton…

  • Leighton Denny Glamour Puss

    Here’s a slightly odd thing. I’m often called glamorous by my friends and I don’t really get why. Must be all the make-up and nail varnish. Perhaps I am channelling Joan Collins circa 1985. I don’t mind, after all, there are far worse things to be called, but it seems to be a constant thing.…

  • Leighton Denny Chocoholic

    I’m doing a detox at the moment.

I’ve been a bit remiss about reviewing Leighton Denny polishes on here really, haven’t I? I…

  • Leighton Denny Brief Encounter

    A little while ago I went on a bit of a Leighton Denny spree. Deciding I didn’t have enough in my collection was straightforward enough, but choosing which ones to buy was the tricky thing. I’m not entirely sure why I bought this one – I must have been on a neutrals kick – but…

  • Leighton Denny Up In The Air

    This post has been a really long time in the making. Just before Christmas 2009, I clocked Leighton Denny’s Elementals collection and loved them. But at the time, I was reluctant to spend the best part of £10 on a brand I didn’t really know a lot about. I know people rave about Leighton Denny…
