NEW Clinique Mineral Sunscreen for Face and Body

Exciting! Mother MANFACE has used Clinique Sunscreens since the dawn of time (probably since they were created) and I’ve used them intermittently.

Pores become blocked, radiance is lost and spots/blemishes can start to appear. Around once every 6 weeks I come down to London for a…

Clinique Dramatically Different Moisturizing Cream for Drier Skin Types

This is quite a short review because there’s not an enormous amount to say.

Top 5 Ultra-Lightweight Summer Hydrators for every pocket

I don’t know about you, but summer plays havoc with my skin and my normal skin care regimes seem to bounce off my skin as if it’s a titanium shield. Nothing sinks in and everything congests. If you’re experiencing this too, you’re not alone. An increase in humidity, sun exposure and heat causes the skin…
