TagCheap Skincare: The Inkey List
There is no denying that I love my luxury skincare and I’m sure I always will. But I do keep trying affordable stuff on the side: partly because of the blog, partly because I think in some categories there isn’t much point in spending outrageous amounts and ..
Drunk Elephant Brand Overview Part 1
If you follow skincare news as obsessively as I do, you already know that Drunk Elephant is launching at Cult Beauty and Space NK on 3 October. From then on, this amusingly named skincare line will be easily accessible for people in Europe (and beyond, but i..
4 Literally and Metaphorically Green Skincare Products
If you’ve been here before, you know I’m not fond of this trendy talk of horrible ‘chemicals’ and ‘toxins’ in products. Everything is made of chemical compounds and no, we are not putting toxins on our face (unless they mean that everything can be toxic in h..
Warm Weather Skincare Routine
As the heatwave continues (it’s going to be 37 degrees in Brussels today), I have been contemplating my skincare routine. I fully understand when people do not want to put anything on their skin in this heat and if you can get away with cleansing, a hydratin..

It’s an interesting time to talk about Glossier, as they are facing the first bumps in the road (at least in public) that has otherwise been very fast and smooth. I believe Solution is the first product they have launched that has created some serious backla..
The Balm I Like Better Than May Lindstrom’s Blue Cocoon
With the exception of some Glossier stuff (of which more in coming days), I have bought no skincare since I returned from Australia in the beginning of the year. This has not been too difficult, as I own enough skincare for a small Korean town. It’s also alw..

Brand Alert: Su:m37, Korean Luxury Beauty
This is a quick and very niche post, but in case you are travelling to Asia in the near future or are just obsessed with Korean skincare, I have to tell you this. I totally could not live with myself if you’d miss out on Su:m37 purely because I was too lazy ..
