Matte or glow? Two new foundation favourites



Burberry-Fresh-Glow-Fluid-foundation

This has been a big year for foundation launches but I still haven’t found a match for my holy grail Myface Mymix which is down to its final squirt.

Close though is Burberry’s Fresh Glow Luminous Fluid foundation (£35). Can I be honest? I wasn’t entirely convinced by Burberry’s beauty ambitions at first, so I tested this with lowish expectations.

My own Shiseido Secrets include an old product and a new one. I love using Shiseido face wipes. At £16.50, Shisedo Pureness Refreshing Cleansing Sheets (to give them their full name) are an irregular indulgence but they do the best job if you’re a lazy make-up taker-offer. Buy it HERE.

And my new discovery is the Shiseido Sheer And Perfect Compact (£29), a light powder foundation. Deep Ochre (no 80) is my perfect colour match with just the right amount of yellow. (more…)

Buy it now: Bobbi Brown’s Perfect Nudes



Bobbi-Brown-Smokey-Nudes-Creamy-Matte-Lip-Colour

Bobbi Brown is the undisputed queen of nudes. Her shades and textures are second to none – I’ve always relied on her flattering lipsticks since way back in the 90s when she practically invented the no-make-up-make-up look.

This month it’s all about great textures to flatter natural-looking eyes, lips and face. (more…)
