I had the honor and pleasure to be invited to the Access² Fashion & Journalism event, which was held on February 22nd in London. As a guest speaker on the journalism panel, I talked about my passion in writing about beauty and my last four years as a blogger. I also offered some advice to those who would like to become bloggers and on-line journalists.
The event was organized by Elevation Networks, and, specifically, its GIFTED Campaign, one of whose aims is to help Arts and Fashion students gain an insight into the field through those in the relevant industries.
One of the things that impressed me the most is the enthusiasm of all the participating students, who were keen to ask questions and talk to the speakers, and I certainly hope they were able to benefit from the event.

Over the years, I have tried quite a few cleansing oils (and variations of them, such as Clinique’s Take The Day Off Cleansing Balm) from both Japanese and western brands. Overall, except Boots’ Botanics Essential Oil Wash Off Cleanser (which was discontinued), I have not come across a cleansing oil from a western brand that is as good as any of the better ones from Japanese brands.
Launched last month, Melting Cleansing Gel from Elemis is yet another variation of an emulsifying cleansing oil (although it is marketed as a morning/evening cleanser, not a makeup remover).
