Sexy, no? When Mr AMR saw me open the Urban Decay Naked 2 Palette, he actually commented on it. Mr AMR: “That’s a nicely designed palette, isn’t it?” Me: “Yes, and look ...
Google has decided to remove the “GFC” function from all non-blogger sites. As I’m completely self-hosted, that means A Model Recommends will no longer have GFC, so approxima...
I have just finished my Lavera Rose Garden Bath Oil and can say, categorically, that it’s brilliant. You need very little to scent a large bath and the 100ml bottle costs just £8.95! A definite...
I have another discount code from the lovely people at Cult Beauty – very useful as there are a couple of products exclusive to them that I’m posting about this week! (If you’re cu...
I just love this Klorane makeup remover. They discontinued it last year, or so I thought, but here it is again and thank GOD for that! It’s so soothing and gentle and it does a pretty nice job ...
I jest, of course; ’tis only me. And beautiful Charlotte from the Dior press office. I’d just like to make it clear, though, that we are both available to shoot the next campaign if we...
Chanel’s ‘June’ nail polish from the Spring 2012 collection is absolutely gorgeous – I’m obsessed with this creamy apricot shade! Last year I bought a cardigan and a top...
Just quickly, a couple of cute scents for Spring – I’ve been meaning to post these up for a while! 1) Vivienne Westwood’s Cheeky Alice, from £32 at Debenhams.com. This is a fresher,...
Twitter followers will know that I went on a whirlwind trip to Paris last week – it was amazing! I stayed at the Plaza Athénée and had an absolute ball! More to come on that later, I’m w...
There were lots of requests for information on the makeup I was wearing in the ‘Dozen Red Roses‘ video, so I recreated the look. It’s a very (very) simple daytime ensemble with glow...
I often get asked about what my “all-time favourites” are, and I suppose that at some point I should really make a video about it. The problem is that there are always new readers coming ...
This is one of my favourite new masks – it’s a real ‘doer’ that actually shows results! Some masks, I feel, are just glorified moisturisers; a mask should be a concentrated s...
Sunday Tittle Tattle (noun?): everything from the week that I have forgotten to post about, in easy brunch-sized chunks… 1) I went to Paris this week for the launch of twelve new Dior Addict li...
I have been meaning to mention this for a while: be careful when using regular cellulite creams last thing at night. I find that they really keep me awake and then I sleep badly! It took me ages to r...
I can’t wait for you to see Polaroid’s new Heritage Collection when it comes out at the end of this month! To celebrate their 75 year anniversary, Polaroid have recreated some of their mo...
OK, listen. I’ll admit right now that I thought this idea was a bit stupid; it’s kind of a YouTube obsession. People show viewers their ‘collections’ of makeup and how they st...
You know how I love a multipurpose balm – I’ve reviewed quite a few on here now. They’re great for chapped skin, chapped lips, little scrapes and bruises, scabby elbows and knees, w...
My latest ‘big tick’ mascara is Dior’s “New Look” – I will be putting it into a video very soon, but if you want to see the effect after just one coat, have a qui...
Remember the Illuminating Powder Gelée from AW11 that everyone went ker-azy over? (If you need reminding, see this post and video here: Modern Mercury Illuminator) Well, it’s back! Estée Lauder...
Having a new kitten means that I am diddling about with gross things more often. Litter tray, poop scoop, smelly cat food. (Nobody tells you just how stinky cat food is, do they?) Obviously I wash m...
When Liz Earle launched their Botanical Shine range of hair products last year I was instantly a fan. The shampoo left my scalp and hair really clean without stripping it with harsh chemicals, so it ...
Mr AMR has banned me from talking about Mr Bear too much. He doesn’t want all the attention going to the kitten’s head – he doesn’t want a celebrity cat. It’s just too m...
Boots have an amazing one litre version of the Soap & Glory Righteous Body Butter at the moment. It’s £25, which is a nice bulk-buy saving, but it’s limited edition so if you’re...
I’ve been very slack with my monthly beauty Round-Ups, sorry! Twitter followers will know that I’ve been in bed for a week (over a week, actually, now) with a bad chest infection, but I s...
I just want to put it out there that I LOVE the Satsuma Shimmer lip balm from The Body Shop. It reminds me of being a teenager, when we all used to rock up to lessons with our little pots of Body Sho...
Obviously it was a “working lunch”. Obviously. Whenever I get together with @legslonglength, as she is known on Twitter, we do nothing but work. Ahem. Ruth (@legslonglength) and I have be...
In a way, I wish that I had never discovered Sisley. You may remember how I was introduced to the brand (that fateful day in the Maldives) you may not - here’s the little tale: How I Met Sisl...
I was lucky enough to be interviewed for Teen Vogue in America just before Christmas, and the Q&A session has just been published! The accompanying images are rather random (and I sent so many lo...
My apple earphone rant continues… The wonderful SiGod (until now anonymous reader but SO glad he popped his head above the parapet! I assume he’s a he….SiGod are you a he?) has put ...
I have gone a little bit AHA crazy recently. After the Liquid Gold success story, I wanted to try out some other exfoliants and see how they compared. (For those of you didn’t follow my little...
