Check out the new additions to my beauty collection that I have instantly fallen in love with...
This week I have been trying out a lot of new products and I have instantly fallen in love with quite a few, first up is a fragrance, I have been looking for a summer time scent ever since the weather improved, I wanted something fresh and long lasting so I picked up the Hugo Boss Orange Sunset Eau De Toilette from Boots, the fragrance has a base of creamy sandalwood combined with vanilla with feminine notes of rose and fresh notes of bergamot and mandarin. It is a very distinct scent, and one that lasts all day. Another beautifully smelling product I have been loving is the Korres Fig shower gel, this lathers up really well and unlike other body washes I have tried the scent of the freshly cut figs can be smelt for ages after washing. The Korres Lip Butter in Pomegranate has also made my list, it has been keeping my lips in great condition with its super moisturizing properties, It is also slightly coloured so recently this has been my go to lip product, I also love wearing this over the top of my Bourjois Rouge Edition Velvet Lipstick for a more wearable everyday look.
Skincare wise I have completely overhauled my routine, more on that later, but I thought I would mention the Eucerin Dermo Purifyer Cleanser*, this is specially formulated for blemish prone or oily skin, now touch wood my blemishes are ok at the moment but I do get oily during the day so I thought this would be great to try. You apply this to wet skin and massage into the skin in circular motions removing make up and excess sebum, since using this I have found myself powdering a lot less and the anti bacterial properties in the cleanser mean I am less likely to get blemishes, so a big thumbs up from me!
A new foundation now and this is one I have been constantly wearing since purchasing it, the Revlon Colourstay for oily/combination skin is perfect for long days when you need your foundation to last, for my perfect shade I have been mixing 'Early Tan' and 'Sand Beige' the two combined create my base. The finish is matte but not cakey and it feels lightweight at the same time as being medium to full coverage. Last but not least is the No.7 Instant Radiance Bronzing Highlighter, I read a lot of great reviews for the Radiance Highlighter so when I saw No.7 had released a bronzing version I knew I needed it in my collection. This looks stunning swept across the cheekbones for a bronzed goddess look, but I have also been loving using this as a contour, the shade is definitely dark enough to create a shadow and the shimmer adds a little glow to the skin.
What are some of your new favourites? Have you tried anything recently and instantly fallen in love?
*this product was sent to me for review, this in no way effects my opinion.
