Giorgio Armani Lip Magnet
It’s a very good day when a menagerie of Giorgio Armani’s latest lipwear lands on your doorstep. Even better is the fact they’re all wearable shades. Someone gets me! The Lip Magnet* is a liquid lip colour that dries to a matte finish. Matte! You know how much I love matte. One coat gives immense…

NYX Cosmetics Ombré Blush
NYX Cosmetics has come a long way since its humble beginnings. Now it takes pride displayed proudly in Boots and Selfridges – high quality make-up accessible and affordable to all. I’ve seen the ripples of excitement the nude Lingerie matte liquid lipsticks have caused though they haven’t done much for me. What has got my…

Illamasqua: Dusk
Illamasqua’s latest capsule collection celebrates the art of Middle Eastern make-up. Launching exclusively in Selfridges tomorrow in time for Eid-ul-Fitr (the feast which follows the end of Ramadan), Dusk* is a flattering ensemble to recreate the visual beauty of Arabic make-up. I am fascinated by Arabic make-up – it’s so simple yet expressive, dramatic and breath-taking. Dusk brings to life the art…

RMK Cleansing Balm
RMK is a luxurious Japanese brand of skincare and cosmetics, one that is understandably popular but alien to the likes of me (especially the make-up).

Dove True Tone
Hello, ladies! Today I have something for you that may be to your liking. It is a problem I personally can relate to and I know my fellow Asian sisters will echo these concerns. I’m talking about dark marks on the underarms. It is an ongoing problem, it causes frustration and in a way, affects self-confidence…

His ‘n her fragrances by Reiss
When I heard global fashion house Reiss were bringing out their own fragrance, I sort of had my expectations sewn up. I hardly pay attention to fashion stores selling their own branded perfumes because they are poor (and sometimes terrible) imitations of what the big designers do best. Well, have you had a sniff at…

Illamasqua: The Sacred Hour
I’m not going to beat around the bush with this post but unless you live under a rock, you might know Illamasqua has a new collection, The Sacred Hour. It drops exclusively in all Selfridges stores across the country tomorrow before it’s rolled out nationwide on 19th August and *squeal*, it’s one you will be…
