With the resurgence of 2000s fashion trends, the smokey eye has become a timeless staple in many people's makeup routines. And who better to look to for inspiration than Posh Spice herself?

While I'm no perfume expert and tend to stick to my tried-and-true favourites, I've recently started exploring new fragrances. One affordable addition to my collection has been garnering compliments every time I wear it - and it's not just me who's a fan.

If one thing grinds my gears, it's the constant need to reapply lipstick after every little thing: sipping a drink, eating a meal, smooching your other half, and so on. Plus, you must always keep your lipstick within reach for those necessary touch-ups throughout the day. While this might not be a big deal on certain occasions, like a night out, it can be quite bothersome when relying on your favourite lippy for all-day wear.That's why I've been loyal to one particular lipstick since I was 13 - it simply doesn't budge, lasting from morning till night.

If there's one beauty product that you can guarantee I'm going to try as soon as a new one launches, it's mascara. Despite the current trend loved by the likes of Molly-Mae Hague for going mascara-free, as I've got fairly small eyes and fair lashes, I wear a couple of coats of mascara almost every day – and the best ones have the power to make me look (I think) and feel loads better.

The Love Island ladies certainly know their way around a makeup bag, and this year's All Stars contestants are no exception.

Despite being a beauty editor for over 12 years, I must confess that new lip product launches rarely get my pulse racing (unless it's a plain, untinted balm promising to cure dry lips for good). While I occasionally opt for a clear gloss, I steer clear of lipstick, lip liners or even tinted lip balms as I genuinely believe I look better without them.

Being a blonde bombshell isn't all sunshine and rainbows, especially when your over-processed ends start to break, your highlights demand constant touch-ups, and your beautiful creamy hue turns rusty at the first hint of sun.These are just some of the reasons why 2025 is witnessing a shift from full-on highlights and scalp bleaching to more manageable shades like 'teddy bear' blonde or bronde.This teddy shade, a lighter and friendlier transition from the 'mushroom' brunette made famous by Hailey Bieber in 2024, is the ideal choice for those who crave a touch of blonde brightness but also want to embrace their natural base tones. Siobhan Haug, colour specialist and co-founder of London's Haug House, explains: "It's really for blondes worrying about their brightness," She adds, "Whether it's due to the condition of their hair or the upkeep it takes, a bright blonde isn't workable for everyone in the long term.

Everyone who knows me knows I typically have at least four perfumes in my bag.To say I'm obsessed feels like an understatement, with my personal home collection seemingly ever growing.

If you're struggling to get a good night's sleep, establishing a soothing pre-bed routine can be a game-changer.
