Kiss goodbye to dry, dehydrated lips this winter with Bobbi Brown’s delightful Extra Plump Lip Serum.

This luxurious, deeply conditioning serum delivers instant, long lasting hydration and shine to visibly plump, soften and smooth the appearance of fine lines.

 

 

Presented in a chic, transparent, rectangular tube with an elegant, embossed silver lid, you can see the soft pink hue of the serum captured inside, inviting you to drench your lips in its nourishing, comforting veil.

Enriched with a plethora of skin loving ingredients, the formula boasts a blend of six botanical oils including avocado oil, olive oil, jojoba oil and babassu oil along with deeply nourishing cocoa seed butter to offer superior hydration.

 

 

Powered by Bobbi Brown’s exclusive Extra Plump Complex, it also contains powerhouse collagen-supporting actives and hydration additives to soften, hydrate and plump a lacklustre pout both immediately and over time.

Remove the lid to reveal the super soft applicator and you’ll notice that the serum features a subtle hint of colour to help enhance the natural beauty of your lips, making it perfect as a treatment to be worn alone or over the top of your chosen lipstick.

 

 

Thick and rich yet completely silky and soft without a hint of greasiness or stickiness, the formula glides across your lips, quenching as it goes creating the sensation of supple, comfortable lips.

The subtle colour helps to breathe life back into your lips while offering a barely-noticeable effect and the delicate sheen reflects the light to create the illusion of a fuller pout.

 

 

If you love the intensity of a lip balm paired with the enhancing powers of a plumper and the sheen of a gloss, then this little gem is definitely for you as it succeeds in delivering each of these elements.

The unique emollient balm texture offers immediate, long lasting hydration to parched skin.

Offering impressive sun protection (SPF 25) to prevent premature ageing, the decadent balm is enriched with a peptide called Argireline to help lift and firm deflated, tired skin.

Perfect for normal to oily skin, you have an incredible choice of over 40 different shades to choose from, allowing you to match the product to your skin tone so easy!

 My shade (in winter when I'm paler than pale) happens to be warm Ivory.

Offering medium to full coverage, this silky foundation offers up to 16 hours of weightless, matte coverage.

I was slightly skeptical of a lightweight foundation that boasts such a high level of coverage, but you needent be concerned- this bad boy delivers on all its promises. 

As an oily skinned gal I will nine times out of ten opt for a matte or Demi-matte finish to try and help combat the dreaded shine, however sometimes with matte foundations your skin can end up looking flat and un-natural.

Not so here. 

This miracle worker delivers a multidimensional matte finish that can hide a multitude of sins while offering a comfortable, breathable, and weightless sensation.

Created through a high speed, cold fusion process, the fluid is silky, light and weightless in texture. 

The formula melts onto your skin to create a flawless second skin, concealing redness, discolouration and blemishes as it goes.

Infused with Glycerine, it helps to provide hydration deep into your skin offering a hit of moisture to prep and plump your skin. 

Marine Sugar Cane and natural mineral powders then help to control your oily complexion throughout the day, creating a balanced, beautiful finish.

What's more, the formula contains true-to-skin pigments that help to reflect the light, enhancing your skin's natural undertones and contours, providing a completely natural yet radiant looking appearance. 

Sweat and humidity restaurant, the foundation doesn't crack, streak or fade throughout the day and unlike some foundation, it wont oxidise meaning it retains its true colour. 

In tests, an impressive 96% of participants agreed that the foundation immediately left their skin looking shine-free, while 93% felt it immediately minimised the look of pores. 

I can vouch for this as this is also my experience.

It is perfect as it conceals flaws without clogging my skin and leaving it feeling heavy. 

In fact, it doesn't feel like you're wearing a foundation at all. 

It's just gorgeous.

Finally we have the beautiful Highlighting Powder in Radiance Collection: Pink Glow (£36.50).

This luxurious, pearl-infused rosy illuminator offers an ultra-reflective Formula for a multi-dimensional, lit-from-within luminosity.

Lightweight, super silky and highly pigmented, the powder offers an impressive colour pay off with just a single swipe.

Offering a melt-into-your-skin, buttery consistency it is easy to build and blend to allow you to create your own customised look and finish. 

Rich and velvety, like the foundation it too offers a second skin sensation, sitting comfortably on your skin offering long wear.

Housed in a sleek, chic compact complete with a mirror for on-the-go application, it imparts a healthy, natural looking rosy glow to lift a dull complexion.

It effortlessly breathes life into your skin with a subtle sparkle to create a natural-looking glow. 

It is so versatile too it can be used anywhere you want to add a touch of radiance, beit on your cheeks, cheekbones, brow bones and even your décolleté.
