This episode is all about my favourite makeup items that I use when I just can’t be bothered. They’re the perfect multi-use products for those days when your hormones have you wondering if you want to stay married, or the kids have got you hiding in the bathroom for five minutes to compose yourself. These 6 products all have multi-tasking qualities to make makeup easy and quick to apply so you can get on with the rest of your day. If you use any of these, let me know in the DMs @beautymepodcast on Instagram and if you hear me talking about a specific product that you’ve also tried, but think y ..read more

It’s another 5-minute review although it’s definitely a bit longer today as the product I’m talking about is Glossier’s G Suit Soft Touch Lip Créme. In these short episodes I tell you what the product is, what the brand says about it and break down the packaging, the smell and feel, and give it a mark out of 5 based on whether it matches the claims on the website and how it performed for me. For consistency, when it comes to the ingredients part I will use incidecoder.com, a website specifically created for ingredient advice. I’d love to know if you’ve tried Glossier G Suit or if there’s anoth ..read more
