The Selfie Brush: Genius or Ridiculous?

Whether you like it or not, everywhere you turn people are taking selfies, celebs, your mates and even your mum and dad.  Living in London I see endless people taking selfies outside famous stores, with celebrities and even on the tube (weird).   I however struggle to get a decent selfie! I am always gurning like my Gran after chewing on some tough meat with her dentures or I am looking anywhere but the camera, so anything that can help me perfect the technique and get something half decent is more than worth a go right?

Well, let me introduce you to the selfie-brush, yes you did read that correctly. This brush has been designed to give you picture perfect hair in every shot and as you can see it is one of those neat little multi-tasking tools in that it also doubles up as a case for your phone, has a mirror and can be used to brush your hair! It might surprise you that this Selfie brush is:

  • The perfect social media tool. Look good on Facebook Instagram & Twitter
  • The handle extends your reach to get the best possible angle for Selfies
  • Paddle brush gives professional results
  • Easy to find in pocket book
  • Offers superior phone protection
  • Ability to text or make a phone call with phone in brush






As you can see, it is very much the normal hairbrush with the inclusion of a mirror and somewhere for you phone.  The brush itself works really well on my hair and ive used it more in that respect than I have for taking selfies.

Whether I would buy one for myself or not is another matter, I like that it is quirky, does what it says it will do and is easy to use, im just not the selfie obsessed person who could get the most out of it, my god daughter however has already hinted that she loves it and could possibly need it asap - so it might just find itself a loving owner!  The brush costs £16.99 and is suitable for the iPhone 5 and 5s.


Is the selfie-brush something you would use? Is it genius or ridiculous?

Pebble Grey LED Make-Up Mirror

In my dream home where I have my dressing room with a walk-in wardrobe and a Alex drawers as far as the eye can see, I also want a vanity unit with my very own Hollywood Mirror with Lights, until then, it is a dream on my Pinterest board.  When contacted by the lovely Emma from Pebble Grey about reviewing a compact LED Cosmetic Mirror, I literally jumped at the chance.  Trying to do my make-up in a morning when it is still dark has been a total nightmare, I either wait until I get to work or do what little damage I can so I don't leave the house looking totally ridiculous and orange.

When the package arrived I was blown away by how stunning and beautiful the packaging is even before I had seen the mirror.  Nestled inside this beautiful box which has the pebble grey logo clearly visible, is a black velvet bag, again with the pebble grey logo clearly visible. Inside that bag is this LED Cosmetic Mirror:

As you can see, this is every bit as lovely as you would be expecting to see given the introduction with such beautiful packaging.  In a pebble grey colour is the actual mirror and once opened there are 6 LED lights on the top mirror which make using the bottom mirror an absolute breeze, even the trickiest of jobs like plucking those unruly eyebrows is straightforward, as is applying your make-up. It is also the perfect size for sitting in the palm of your hand, even for someone like me who has small hands.

What I also love about this mirror is that because it comes with an accompanying velvet bag to keep it safe, I can carry it around in my handbag or in my make-up bag and because it is so light, it doesn't weigh your bag down.

For more information or to purchase one of these mirrors, you can find everything you need to know on the main website.
