Skin is oily all over. Often very blemish prone and prone to blocked pores. Skin feels comfortable all the time and by midday is often very shiny in appearance.

The Anti-Blemish Serum I’ve been waiting for
This has surely been a long time coming from Clinique who’s anti-blemish skincare system is one of the most widely regarded and used out there. I have used it intermittently for almost 10 years as and when needed to deal with occasional (but severe) breakouts. The Clinique Anti-Blemish Solutions Blemish + Line Correcting Serum kills the…

NEW Clinique City Block Purifying Charcoal Clay Mask & Scrub
Well this is exciting. For anyone who lives a fast life, particularly living in a city / town surrounded by pollution, sweat and grim; this takes its toll on your skin.

L’Occitane Cedrat Fragrance and Skin Care Collection for Men
I love a L’Occitane fragrance with my all time favourite being Eau des Baux with it’s vanilla, cypress and peppery incense. They’re always so different and particularly with men’s fragrance, break the mould and go beyond the norms of traditional masculine scents. Cedrat is no exception! When you think of Cedrat you’d be forgiven for thinking this is another…

Reparative Skin Care by Twelve Beauty
When I first tried Twelve Beauty (2 years ago now) I wasn’t blown away by how it made my skin feel. Although the formulations are exquisite, at the time it was far too rich and more than my skin needed. Two birthdays and a boat-load of stress later, my skin needs more these days! I’m…
