I’ve noticed that as I grow up (read: age horribly), my skin issues and skincare routine have changed as well. Other than getting rid of blackheads, I never used to be that fussed about pore size, or the appearance of pores – there are quite a few products out there that can be used to minimise or hide the look of pores, so I never really gave it a second thought.
However, things change and the other week, I found myself looking at those awful nose pore strips that were so popular c.2006 – you know, the ones that look like giant plasters, except they shrink like concrete onto your nose and essentially feel like they’re ripping off the top layer of your skin. Could I really put myself through that again?

Porefessional Skin With Benefit Instant WipeOut Mask & Matte Rescue Gel
Last week it was an unveiling of the GOSH Copenhagen SS16 beauty buys but which are the makeup must-haves and which should be left on the shelf? Let's take a closer look..
Inspired by the moody greys, raw nature and nordic heritage, the new GOSH Copenhagen collection is full of cool colours and wearable shades. But does the quality match up? I've not bought GOSH makeup before, so I was really interested to see what it was like.

GOSH Copenhagen New SS16 Makeup Launch!
Hello Team! A bit of a busy week for me - my new job is going great but it's quite a change of pace with a much, much earlier start! Thankfully these longer summer hours have made it a lot easier because it looks like it's 3pm outside when it's actually 8pm. Brilliant.
Of course, with longer summer hours comes longer sun exposure and whilst that's great for my Vitamin D intake, it means more damage to my skin and..... ACCELERATED AGEING. Duh duh duhhhhh.
I know you KNOW that SPF is important but let's be honest, we think of SPF and think sticky, heavy, pasty cream. I don't want that on my skin - it'll take years to dry and my skin will be all tacky and shiny right?
Wrong. My friends - let me introduce you to the SPF products of today. These products are light, they're velvet smooth, they now even come in different textures and different formats for any purpose and any part of your body!
Before you start wondering 'what parts of my body would i need to use SPF on?' - just keep reading and all will be revealed...

Summer Skincare: My Top SPF Products!
London Fashion Week. A glittering of flashbulbs lights up London. Reams and reams of makeup used in one day. Hair straightened, curled and straightened again. A million outfits worn and discarded ....and that's just my bedroom!
LFW is a hive of activity, and I'm a fan of always being prepared for anything. Who knows, you could blag a last minute invite to a show or after-party - anything could happen!
So what do I arm myself with during the week? These are my top five products to see your Fashion Week face through any activity.
Clockwise from top left.

London Fashion Week: Top 5 Products For Your LFW Look
There's always that one elusive product that you've been meaning to try for aaages but you somehow never get round to.
Everytime you remember and go to the shop, it's out of stock. Then you see an advert on TV or hear someone talking about it - so you head to your nearest beauty dealer and wait... the shop doesn't sell it.

For me, that annoyingly unobtainable product was this. The Nivea Daily Essentials Express Hydration Primer.
I've been meaning to buy this for 6 months now and I couldn't find it anywhere which is a lot to say for someone who passes four Boots and a Superdrug every day - twice (yes, I am sooo strong, I know)
Before I bought this Hydration Primer, I didn't really use primer every day. It's an extra step to my routine, it makes my skin feel a bit clogged and most of the time, I just couldn't be bothered!
I know you know the feeling..
