Fans of La Roche-Posay's Effaclar Duo rejoice: they have released a new version of their highly effective spot treatment, this time with an added SPF. Effaclar Duo+ SPF30 has the same basic formula as the original, helping to minimise the size and appearance of spots...
*This giveaway is now closed. Winners announced in a separate post shortly.* As many readers will already know, Effaclar Duo is one of my staple spot-beating products. It seems to be one of the few products that works on those horrible, deep-seated pimples that lurk...
Lengthiest post in the world alert. Do you remember when I recruited some skin care guinea pigs to test out the new Effaclar Anti-Blemish System*? Way back when the sun was shining and we weren't being relentlessly pelted with hailstones and cold rain? Well the...
I've never been a huge advocate of toners; most that I tried in my teens and early twenties left my face so dry and stripped that my skin would be completely knocked out of balance. I think that there was a real trend, then especially, for "cleanser and toner duos";...
**UPDATE: chosen testers are Harry (h.nortonshaw), frances.barcelos, bethanrabjohns, dianalloyd5 and Andrea Lutton. Thanks to everyone who left a comment, I wish I had hundreds of these sets. (I'm working on it!) Testers; you'll receive an email shortly from La...
OK, the winners of the Effaclar Duo+ samples have been randomly picked and I am listing them below with vital parts of the email addresses missing, for security reasons. If you have won then you will shortly be receiving an email directly from La Roche-Posay, so...
A new video for you here, but as it's proved to be such a popular one already I'll give you a bit of an extended blurb. The Five Beauty Products that Changed My Skin has a slightly confusing title, I suppose, because it's more about the five "types" of product that...
Did you ever play a game when you were little called Kim's Game? We used to play it at Girl Guides. It probably has loads of different names and ways to play it, but our version was this: you'd have a tray with a load of objects on (things like pens and buttons and...
Here's a list of my absolute all-time favourite beauty products. If I had to fit everything into a very small suitcase and go and live on a desert island, then this is what I'd take. This list is subject to change, but it has been exactly the same for over a year so...
I've done a little run-down of the top five skincare ranges of 2012. Now I'm talking about entire ranges here, not about individual products. If I did a top five products then the list might look a little different - this is a video about complete (or almost complete)...
There's not a Sunday Tittle Tattle every week, but there must have been a fair few this year. I think that it's definitely here to stay! It's quite useful for me to be able to relay little chunks of info and ponderings that I wouldn't otherwise find space to include -...
A favourites video with a difference this month: say hello to my Mum! Some of you may know her already from her blog, My Mum Says - if you haven't read it then do have a little look, I'll pop the link underneath the video pane. My Mum is almost as obsessed with lovely...
