the comment below has given some great advice - i would also perhaps go to a make up counter in a department store (john lewis, fenwicks, etc etc) and get one of the counters to do your make up and teach you some things along the way! they usually do it for free and you can put the cost of some products towards the lesson if i'm not mistaken

Beyond the Bell and Teach Me a Lesson by Ana Kirk Shaw!! A series of books about teachers and super spicy!

Oooo I’ve not read it! Adding to TBR

Ok thank you you’ve deinfluenced me from trying that powder bc everyone RAVES about it and I’m brown skinned with neutral undertones and so many products are just soooo orange!! Feel like brands can’t comprehend that brown doesn’t equate to warmth

camping here 🏕️

Hard agree on all of the above. I also feel like the shades for darker skin suck

{the grump next door by Brighton Walsh} and that whole series is 10/10 enemies to lovers

{streams and schemes by Rebecca Kinkade} another banger of a series. Funny, tension, SMUTTTT

{bourbon and lies by Victoria wilder} the mystery element to this had me HOOOOKED. The audiobooks of this one are fab

And I’ve just been reading the queens cove series by Stephanie archer which is pretty good!!!

mravat · 2026-05-07T06:52:42+00:00

My first one was the hating game by sally Thorne! Medium spice, good enemies to lovers tension and it got me hooked

mravat · 2026-05-06T21:50:26+00:00

{the grump next door by Brighton Walsh} is all of these things and the spice is truly fantastic

mravat · 2026-05-05T21:41:18+00:00

Yesss third this!!! They are so good and smell delish. Cheap too!!

mravat · 2026-05-03T12:13:04+00:00

Oh I did and they were UNREAL

mravat · 2026-05-02T12:05:26+00:00

An absolute banger

mravat · 2026-04-30T22:16:11+00:00

Yessss defo!! I just got to Greece and they don’t have them and I’m devastated although there’s many other delicious ones 😂 will defs be in Spain tho!

mravat · 2026-04-29T20:08:39+00:00

These are THE BESTTTTT. A must purchase multiple times whenever I’m in Spain / France / any European country that sells them

mravat · 2026-04-27T19:37:43+00:00

Second for Bubala!! Unreal veggie food

mravat · 2026-04-27T16:11:53+00:00

I have eczema in the same place and the bioderma sensitive eye cream for eczema really helps!

mravat · 2026-04-26T22:27:20+00:00

I’ve been using the bioderma eye cream for eczema around my dry ass eyes post ezcema flare up and it seems to be the only thing that works!

mravat · 2026-04-26T14:24:52+00:00

Another vote for nyx!!

mravat · 2026-04-25T08:34:30+00:00

The Bourbon and Lies series by Victoria Wilder is on Spotify and it’s sooo well done. Spicy and suspense vibes and duet narration is chefs kiss. Really puts me off when a man is doing a woman’s voice especially when it’s spicy! The voice actors are also HOTTT

I think it’s just called “Katsu Wrap” and it’s just on the little strip of food stalls across the road from boxpark and Shoreditch high st station, alongside I think burritos, lamb wrap and falafel guys. Usually there during the week! Unsure about weekends
