18 Affordable Beauty Products That Are Just as Good as These Expensive Ones
I’m incredibly lucky that I get sent some of the most premium beauty products on the market to try out as part of my job. From £205 moisturisers to £109 facial steamers, I’ve had the chance to test some of the most luxurious formulations and beauty tools in the UK to find out what’s worth the hype. But does expensive always equal best? In a word, no. Despite having access to extravagant products and high-end beauty brands, I’ve found that there are tons of affordable options that rival their more expensive counterparts. In fact, there are plenty even the most experienced beauty editors would struggle to differentiate between once applied to the skin. So whether you’re trying to stick to a budget or you just don’t want to spend excessively on a pricier co...

I Have Expensive Taste, But These Affordable Beauty Treats Are So Luxe
‘Tis the season for festivities. The party season is here, our calendars are being booked up and the temperature has well and truly dropped. However, as much as I love this time of year, it can be a busy one. The end of the year can be hectic as we scramble to wrap everything up (both literally and figuratively), and if you’re anything like me, your calendar is jam-packed with socialising. As an introvert, I like to carve out time to recharge in between work and festivities, and that’s where my love of beauty and self-care rituals comes into play. Taking time to treat ourselves is essential for our well-being, and this time of year, you can really go all-out on the indulgence. With the sun virtually disappearing by 4 p.m., now is the ideal time to hunker down in the eveni...

The Surprising Shoe Trend Celebrities Still Wear To The Airport
If there’s one thing I’ve learnt this year, it’s that ‘airport style’ is most definitely a thing. Traditionally, long-haul dressing was all about comfort but nowadays our favourite celebs know that a stylish travel outfit can be just as impactful as a red carpet look. And while you might not be jetting off to the same destinations or events as the celeb pack, it doesn’t mean you can’t still dress to impress on your next flight (or even train journey!). When it comes to nailing travelling in style, there are few things that celebrities always seem to rely on, like a large tote bag, sunglasses, great denim and easy layers. But you might be surprised to know that chic celebrity airport looks also always feature an unpredictable footwear choice: Heels. From h...

Katie Holmes Wore the Winter Accessory That Makes Every Outfit Look Expensive
Katie Holmes is a pro at putting together casual, comfortable outfits that look great with trainers. And in the late autumn and winter, it’s important to also protect yourself from the chill while walking around outdoors. This week, she showed how it’s done with her chic, low-key outfit. Holmes paired a long, oversized black coat with a white T-shirt, baggy jeans, trainers, and the accessory that’s the subject of this piece: a camel scarf. We’d waxed poetic time and time again about the expensive-looking touch the colour camel has, and that never changes. It retains its popularity for a reason, and the beauty of a cosy scarf is that it adds that luxe look to even the most casual winter outfits on a daily basis. Yes, you can get away with wea...

The Perfumers Behind These Luxe Scents Also Made These Affordable Fragrances
Affordable makeup and skincare brands are easy to find, and these days utilise the same ingredients and formulas as luxury brands, but when it comes to shopping for fragrance on a budget, it can be hard to know where to start. If you’re anything like me then the term ‘cheap perfume’ probably makes you think of overly-sweet, watered-down scents that don’t exactly scream luxury. However, finding great-smelling fragrances (without breaking the bank) is getting much easier, and there are actually some real gems to be found from high street brands such as Zara and & Other Stories. So which affordable perfumes actually smell as good as their more expensive counterparts? One way to find out is to take a look at the perfumers behind your favourite luxury fragrances, because chances a...
8 Investment Pieces You’ll Never Regret Buying In the Sales
What makes an item truly worth it? Well, I’ve considered plenty of factors. Of course, you want to get a great deal, because there’s nothing better than exclaiming “I got it on sale” when someone asks where your clothes are from. But at a time when we’re all looking to shop more considerately, for the planet and for our pockets, there’s a few things to keep in mind. Firstly, does it have longevity?

There’s plenty of reliable investments, such as a classic camel coat, that will work hard in your wardrobe for years to come. Secondly, is the quality worth the ...
