Paradise found - in Soho...



Don’t be deceived by the bird-of-paradise eyeshadow this model was wearing when Beauty Bible dropped by Bourjois’s autumn preview event at the Sanctum Hotel (Soho’s new ‘party’ hotel, where nobody minds if you stay up all night playing music in your room, because that’s the whole idea). We saw lots to love in the rooftop suite invaded by Bourjois for the day, including a flattering new shade of Ombre Stretch - Sarah’s favourite eyeshadow - in Taupe Froid. But what really got us excited was the launch of Bourjois’s cleansing range - including a dual-phase Express Eye Make-up Remover which is one of the very few on the planet that hasn’t irritated Jo’s so-sensitive eyes, and which removes every last atom - EVERY LAST ATOM! - of mascara, with no rubbing. All the cleansers are fabulous - and all under a fiver. Now that’s beautiful.
