How can you go wrong with gray on your nails? Answer: you can’t. No matter what your skin tone is – gray is the way forward. I’m currently building a collection of every ashen colour I could get my piano fingers on.

Currently I’m rocking OPI’s You Don’t Know Jacques on my toes…

And OPI’s French Quarter For Your Thoughts on my fingas…

Get some.

Remove | Supprimer

I have found a makeup remover that surpasses all others. FINALLY!

Behold! Salma Hayek’s Nuance Dual Phase Makeup Remover exclusively at CVS.

This stuff is MAGIC, unlike the shitty picture…the best one I could find.

It removes, literally, everything. [Even stuff you'd need a power sander for.] Waterproof eyeliner and mascara? Off. Red stained lips from last night’s debacherous extravaganza? Gone.

Smells light and calming. Leaves skin hydrated and supple. The packaging is absolutely perfect – none of the product goes to waste because of it’s ergonomically designed bottle tip, plus you don’t need much to take off a lot. Trust.

It won’t make your eyes turn red of filmy. You won’t break out in hives and neither will your catdoggerbil hybrid. Oh, and the ingredients are so awesome you can, probably, eat/drink them even if you’re gluten free!

Cucumber, rosewater, chamomile & lavender extracts nurture and soothe the delicate eye area. Mimosa, blue agave, camapu & prickly pear extracts soothe, hydrate and firm skin. Glycerin, a lightweight moisturizer, softens and hydrates skin and lips. Ophthalmologist tested. Dermatologist tested. Not tested on animals. Fragrance free. Hypoallergenic. Gluten free.

Go get yours now! I promise you won’t be disappointed.

Stay, Valentine! | Tenez, la Saint-Valentin!

Today’s the day that many of you will get f̶u̶c̶k̶e̶d̶ laid, cry or indulge in stuffing of the a̶n̶a̶l̶ oral cavity. Sounds like a typical Tuesday for some of you, doesn’t it?

Either way, which ever cavity you prefer you get stuffed in or produce liquid out of, you’ll need waterproof/long-lasting tools to still look pretty  i̶n̶ ̶t̶h̶e̶ ̶m̶o̶r̶n̶i̶n̶g̶ at the finish line.

Hands down, Stila Stay All Day Waterproof Liquid and Smudge Stick Waterproof liners are the bee’s knees. The liquid is so waterproof – you’ll need a Brillo pad to scrub it off. And the smudge stick won’t tug the skin like the other creepy perpetrators. L̶e̶a̶v̶e̶ ̶t̶h̶e̶ ̶t̶u̶g̶g̶i̶n̶g̶ ̶f̶o̶r̶ ̶u̶n̶d̶e̶r̶ ̶t̶h̶e̶ ̶t̶a̶b̶l̶e̶.̶

Lancome Definicils High Definition Waterproof mascara won’t budge even if you h̶a̶v̶e̶ ̶a̶ ̶g̶a̶g̶ ̶r̶e̶f̶l̶e̶x̶ get dumped on this special day by your one and only true love or you’re just, plain hormonal. Si triste.

Yummy NARS lipstick will moisturize whilst attaching it’s sexy, bad self to your lippers. Feel free to g̶i̶v̶e̶ ̶h̶e̶a̶d̶ ̶v̶i̶g̶o̶r̶o̶u̶s̶l̶y̶ eat what ever you like and test the staying power for yourself. Try these sexy shades: Afghan Red, Heat Wave, Jungle Red and Manhunt.

What am I doing today? Same thing I do every day – WORKING. I get my sexin’ on holiday or not. Pfft.

Some behind the scenes action for you, my pretties!

Back in December I worked on a campaign for the GLOW Spa at the Tropicana shot by the, ever so talented and lovely, Tommy Chung. Styled by Toye Adedipe.

I’m told this baby will be played on all the in-room televisions. (Blush.)

Excited to share the images with you when they’re released… xo

Lia is a Gemini | Lia est un Gémeaux

At the end of the summer, there was a lovely short escape to the desert of Palm Springs with my beloved, our beloved friends Shelli and Chris and some really hot models.

One of them was a foxy, blonde pixie named Lia.
