As I remain dedicated to protective styling, this will be the first of many wig reviews. If RAY performed as good as it looked, it would have been the ultimate wig, a perfect 10. Janet Collection is the brand behind RAY, a lace wig from...

Happy Birthday Your Beauty First! Words can't express my joy and gratitude as I celebrate two years of Your Beauty First as well as the 100th post! I launched the brand two years ago but the idea at the heart of Your Beauty First was...

Yes, I am reviewing another conditioner from Garnier's Ultimate Blends range. Infused with argan and camellia oil, Garnier’s Ultimate Blends The Marvellous Transformer Conditioner is a pleasant surprise! Prior to purchasing it from Amazon (£2.00, 400ml), I had never heard of camellia oil. According to...
Simply the best, Zac Posen is my favourite fashion designer. He is consistent, never failing to deliver a phenomenal collection or a spectacular red carpet gown. His Fall 2012 RTW Collection is a great example of his unmatched talent and artistry. I have decided to...
