Models Own Beetlejuice Polishes get a Summer Makeover

After the phenomenal sell-out success of the Models Own Beetlejuice range, growing demands for a S/S update have been answered with these three brand new shades.

The three  Beetlejuice polishes are inspired by the colours of a hot summer haze, mimicking a mirage of complex colour-shifting shades to produce these shimmering duo chrome colours.

Manuka Doctor Purified Bee Venom & Millie Mackintosh

Made in Chelsea star Millie Mackintosh is going to be on Manuka Doctor’s stand at the Vitality Show on Saturday 24^th March from 10am – 1pm and to celebrate i am giving away her favourite Purified Bee Venom skincare product, the Manuka Doctor ApiClear Skin Treatment Serum and their ApiNourish Rejuvenating Face Mask.

But what is this Manuka Doctor Bee Venom stuff? 

Well....

Bee venom is loved by the likes of Victoria Beckham and Kate Middleton  (believe it or not) due to its anti-bacterial and anti-wrinkle properties.

It’s only now, that for the very first time, Manuka Doctor is able to bring Purified Bee Venom to the masses.

(That means us mere mortals)

 Manuka Doctor’s Purified Bee Venom range encourages the skin to react in a similar way to as if it had been lightly stung, increasing the amount of blood to the area therefore stimulating collagen growth and cell renewal, helping to counter wrinkle formation and reduce blemishes.

Millie’s favourite product, the ApiClear Skin Treatment Serum (£18.99) is a light weight, oil-free serum that provides relief and helps to refine the skin’s texture. It’s super hydrating properties assist with cell regeneration and help to reduce the appearance of fine lines  and scars.

The ApiNourish Rejuvenating Face Mask (£49.99) is a deep penetrating, skin renewal treatment that nurtures cell regeneration and assists with the renewal of damaged skin cells.

The antioxidant qualities of this mask supports anti-ageing by promoting cell regeneration whilst simultaneously working to reduce the appearance of fine lines and wrinkles.

Im sure Millie needn’t worry about wrinkles at her tender age, but if these products are going to give me a radiant and flawless complexion like hers, i better stock up now!

Manuka Doctor is available now from Holland & Barrett.

The PixiGLOW Tinkerbell Collection: Pixi Fairy Face Palette

Three weeks ago i received a most exciting email.

It was an invitation to a product launch and i literally cannot remember the last time i have been so excited about attending a launch.

‘’You are cordially invited to experience the magic of pixiGLOW’’

Ooooh, PixiGLOW sounds pretty cool i thought. I read on further.

‘’Inspired by Disney’s most iconic fairy, Tinkerbell’’

I felt my heart skip a beat.

Tinkerbell!!! 

She was one of my most favourite Disney characters!  Pretty, dainty, magical and mischievous!

I was a little concerned that a makeup brand like Pixi, which is synonymous with ‘fresh, natural beauty’ may betray its most fundamental elements by having a Disney inspired range as there could be the danger for the collection to be a little too juvenile, young, and pink.

I was wrong.

The limited edition PixiGlow Tinkerbell collection includes:

 Fairy Face Palette in Pixi Belle, £32

 Pirouette Pink Nail Colour

Catching Shadows Crayon in Beaming Reflection, £12

 Fairy Dust in Moonlit Luster, £10

 Magic Tink Tint in Happy Thoughts, £10

Straight on Til’ Morning Liner, £9.50

Firstly may i draw your attending to the beautiful illustrations and art work. Not overtly cutesy or girly but sophisticated And vintage-esq i immediately fell in love with it.

I have far too much to say about this collection in one post so please bare with me and allow me to begin with the magical Pixi Fairy Face Palette (£32).

Encased within an enchanting compact kit you will find 5 stunning eyeshadows, 5 cream lip colours and a 3 tone blusher complete with brushes.

The eyeshadows are all highly pigmented and are all very wearable, pretty shades which are perfect for all skintones.

Eyeshadow Swatch

 The lip creams are wonderfully moisturising and subtle in colour but can be built on to create a more powerful shade if desired.

Lip Cream Swatch

 

The blush is a gorgeous, universally wearable shade that compliments the shadows and lip colours perfectly. It also has a lovely, slightly mettalic fairy-esq shimmer to it.

Blush Swatch

Despite the Disney Fairy take on the range, as a 26 year old woman i certainly wouldn’t be embarrassed to be seen with this collection.

Its sophisticated and yet still appeals to the child within all of us that secretly wishes she was a Disney Princess or indeed, a Pixi or Fairy!

The Palette is available from Pixibeauty.co.uk and selected Boots stores now. 

Stay tuned for reviews of the other PixiGLOW products soon.
