Sunday afternoon shopping on the Kings Road
Hmmm, I was just wondering as I wrote that title why it is that when someone refers to the Kings Road in Chelsea they don't just call it Kings Road.

Make-up brushes – what are they all for? Can’t I just use my fingers?
OK. So I feel like a bit of a fraud. All this time I've been blogging and telling you what I think about about make-up and skin care products. I've only been using one brush for my make-up.
