After last week’s column on make-up addictions, my inbox was inundated with mail. It seems every woman has a few items that cross the line in her kit from a mere like to a love. Personally I think everything you have in your make-up kit or wardrobe should be a ‘love’. Life is too short for ‘likes’.

A revolutionary new nail design product which offers an easy-to-apply, salon quality manicure in minutes is now available from a company with more than five decades of experience in the nail business.

When choosing a new scent remember that you can only smell up to three scents at a time. Brown Thomas experts say it is advisable to wait 30 seconds for the alcohol to evaporate, then you will be able to find out what the top notes of the perfume are.

Fancy putting the dark, dreary days of winter behind you? If so, a sunkissed look may be all you need to give your appearance a lift.

Just in at Brown Thomas is Irish label Laundry Room. Located on the second fashion floor, this range includes affordable, wearable, vintage inspired dresses and tops for mothers and daughters (each wearing it her own way of course). It even has a bang on trend three quarter length sleeve trench in the perfect nude colour. My favourite piece in this collection is a drapey nude sleeveless ‘going out’ top, the shape and colour would work well with most wardrobes and on most girls.

The whole point of a make-up bag is that it should act as a kind of security blanket. You hope that the make-up you applied before you left the house (or the car as the case may be) lasts all day, but if it doesn’t you are prepared for any touch ups with the arsenal in your make-up kit. An over-full or disorganised bag brimming with 20 eye shadows and six lipsticks serves no useful purpose. Lots of items could/should stay at home, like your mascara (which should never be reapplied on top of old mascara), and your bottle of foundation (all you need is a smart compact for touch ups).
