At this time of year when there are more late nights (and sometimes early starts!) than usual, plus consuming food and drinks that we might ordinarily keep to a minimum, our skin can tell tales on us. Between dark circles, puffy eyes, dehydration, our skin will let us know when it isn't happy. I think we all want to look our best during the holidays so take a look my my product recommendations for plump and hydrated skin!
The festive season has well and truly begun and while I can't say that I will be partying hard this Christmas, I will definitely be wearing a bit of sparkle on my eyes over the next week or two! For irresistible twinkly eyes, you can't beat Charlotte Tilbury Pop Shots! I have four shades and want to tell you why you need one in your life...
I don't know about you but my skin has really suffered since the temperature plummeted. I am used to the skin on my face getting much drier in winter but this year, my skin all over my body became so dry that it was scratchy and uncomfortable. I knew that I had to do something about it and didn't want to spend a fortune buying lots of products so I went through some old empties posts and reviews and decided on my top three products. My skin is much better now - not as scaly, thankfully and my self tan is back to applying evenly and not catching on my skin as it had been.
I haven't done any gift guides this year but if I had, these two fragrances from Parfums De Marly would have been included. I first got Delina in the summer of last year after hearing so many great things about it, and being a fragrance addict, I knew that I needed it in my life! I fell in love and am now on my third bottle. Then for Christmas last year, I received Valaya and fell in love with that too. Either of these fragrances would make a gorgeous Christmas gift so I thought I'd share my thoughts on them with you today...
Over the last few weeks and months I've made some great new discoveries. The products aren't necessarily new to the market but new to me and I'm pretty sure that they'll be repurchases in the future. Given that I'm a beauty addict, I feel that it takes a lot for new products to impress me these days but these six really have. Read on to find out why......
Westman Atelier is a brand that I've been curious to explore for a while but the products are pricey and when you have so much makeup, it's sometimes hard to justify buying more products when they are expensive and you don't really know if you'll like them. I like to see reviews from people who I think have similar taste to me and so I waited. Then Jodie did a review of the highlighter stick in the shade Brulée and it looked stunning on her so that immediately went onto my wishlist. A little while later, she shared a link to the Christmas gift set of a duo of highlighter sticks, which are not full size but also not the same price as the full sizes, so I bit the bullet and bought it and want to share my thoughts with you today.
