Charlotte Tilbury Airbrush Flawless Blush Blur Pillow Talk Dreams Review

If there's one makeup product I can never have enough of, it's blusher! Charlotte Tilbury has recently launched the Airbrush Flawless Blush Blur and after trying a few of the original Pillow Talk blushes over the years, I was excited to see how this new formula compared.

I picked up Pillow Talk Dreams, a gorgeous deep burnt rose shade with a cooler-toned finish that's absolutely perfect for autumn and winter. And I have to say, I'm impressed!                                                                          

                 

EYFS Provision Ideas: Six Halloween Activities

EYFS Provision Ideas: Six Spooktacular Activities for Little Learners! 🎃👻

Halloween is the perfect excuse to add a little extra magic to the classroom! From pumpkins and potions to spooky spiders and colourful creations, there are so many opportunities to bring seasonal fun into provision whilst supporting children's learning and development.

This year, I wanted to create a range of Halloween-inspired activities that were simple to set up, engaging and full of opportunities for independent exploration. 

I've put together six Halloween provision ideas that focus on fine motor development, creativity, early writing skills and plenty of hands-on exploration. The best part? Most of these activities use inexpensive resources that you might already have tucked away in your classroom cupboards.

July Favourites

                                                                                                                                                                           Do you remember when YouTube favourites videos were everywhere? They were one of my favourite types of content to watch because they gave a genuine insight into the products people actually loved and reached for time and time again. It's a format I wish would make a comeback.

With that in mind, here are a few products that have earned a place in my routine this month.

L'Oréal Paris Infallible Setting Spray for Oily Skin

                                                                                                                                                                               Has L'Oréal Just Made the Best Drugstore Setting Spray?

I'll be honest – I didn't think I'd ever find a setting spray that could replace my beloved Urban Decay All Nighter. It had been a staple in my makeup bag for years and was one of those products I'd happily repurchase again and again.

But recently, something changed.

La Roche Posay Hyalu B5 for Oily Skin

  If you have oily or combination skin, hydration can feel like a skincare paradox. Use something too rich and your skin looks greasy by lunchtime — skip hydration and your skin produces even more oil to compensate.

That’s where the Hyalu B5 range from La Roche-Posay comes in. Designed to deliver deep hydration without heaviness, the Hyalu B5 Water Gel and Hyalu B5 Suractivated Serum promise plumped, smoother skin while remaining suitable for sensitive and oily skin types.

After testing both, here’s a full breakdown of what they do, how they differ, and whether they’re actually worth adding to an oily-skin routine.

Charlotte Tilbury's NEW Magic Cream

Have you heard the news? Charlotte Tilbury has given its iconic Magic Cream a serious upgrade… and honestly? I didn’t expect to love it as much as I do. I’ve always appreciated the idea behind Magic Cream — the backstage glow, the celebrity hype, the promise of instant skin revival. But (and this might be controversial), the original formula was never quite for me.

Until now.

The NEW Charlotte’s Magic Cream has officially had a facelift — and this time, I completely understand the hype.
