Did I just go and do that thing where I disappear for a couple of months without warning? Rhetoric question, you don't have to answer that. But apologies - honestly, I don't know where the past two months went? I have a couple of projects in the making, and hopefully, I'll be able to share them with you guys soon. But in the...

As someone who first had horrible acne and then started wearing evidence of sleepless nights under their eyes, concealer is an essential part of my makeup collection. I've lost count of the concealers I've tried over the years and I don't think I've gotten around to finding my perfect concealer. But I've stuck to these concealers for a while now and I'm able...

Hi, remember me? I'm Daphne. I used to post regularly on this blog and then I just...sorta, kinda, disappeared. Okay fine, I really disappeared. Like a douchy ex, or that chocolate cake you weren't supposed to eat but you were really hungry....Anywho. Welcome to the daffnee.com, the next era of this blog. You know how this works - I'm going to try and...
