Too Faced Lip Injection Extreme Plumped To The Max Set

 Give the gift of a beautiful full pout with Too Faced.

Say hello to the gorgeous Lip Injection Extreme Plumped to The Max Gift Set.

This limited-edition gift features three of the brands iconic travel-sized lip glosses to help deliver both instant and long-term plumping while deeply hydrating and nourishing your lips.

 

The set comprise of the Lip Injection Extreme Original, Bubblegum Yum and Strawberry Kiss.

Perfect for complimenting all skin tones, Bubblegum Yum offers a beautiful, pale pink, Strawberry Kiss packs a punch thanks to its vibrant hot pink hue and then of course there is the OG in all its transparent yet iridescent glory.

 

Retaining the same fabulously sweet and fruity fragrance, these pretty shades offer a subtle hint of colour while creating a beautiful, full pout.

Lip Injection Extreme intensifies the plumping benefits of the original gloss thanks to its medically proved blood vessel dilating technology and light-reflecting shine to moisturise and nourish while boosting your pout power.

 

Formulated with atelocollagen, marine filling spheres, antioxidant Vitamin E and nourishing avocado and jojoba oils this lightweight gloss leaves lips feeling pampered and full from first application.

Silky and light it feels more like a luxurious serum than a traditional gloss which can be heavy, sticky and gloopy.

 

Glide the soft wand across your lips and experience the light tingling sensation as it gets to work.

Unlike some plumpers which can create an intense tingling which can actually be quite uncomfortable, the Lip Injection Extreme offers a more gentle experience.

 

Within a matter of minutes, lips look and feel fuller while the moisturising and comforting feel of the gloss leaves your lips feeling smooth, soft and hydrated.

Despite its featherlight texture the gloss hugs your lips tight, meaning you won’t need re-apply every 5 minutes.

 

While Bubblegum Yum might just be my new favourite shade thanks to its soft, pretty cotton candy pink, each plumper is undeniably gorgeous in its own right.

The fab Too Faced Lip Injection Extreme Plumped To The Max Set is available now exclusively from Beauty Bay and costs £24.

KVD Beauty Everlasting Blush

 I think I may have just found my new all-time favourite blush.

Can we just take a moment to appreciate how breathtakingly stunning this KVD Beauty Everlasting Blush is.

Blush is blush, but ‘cmon, just look at this absolute beauty!

Boasting an award winning formula, this one-of-a-kind blush compact has been inspired by the high pigment, soft matte finish and long lasting durability of their Everlasting Liquid Lipstick.

 

It directly reflects the lipstick’s rose designed cap also, with the exquisite compact featuring beautiful black petals of a rose in bloom, with the blush sitting elegantly at the centre of the flower.

Available in six stunning, flattering shades, I got my mitts on Rosebud, a romantic dusty mauve-pink.

 

The blush itself is luxurious and silky in texture thanks to its micromilled formula, allowing it to blend seamlessly into your skin and features plant derived skin conditioners to leave your complexion feeling wonderfully soft to touch and never cakey.

Lightweight and velvety like the touch of a rose petal, this blush delivers some seriously long lasting wear and is transfer resistant, so once on your face, that’s where it’ll stay all day long.

Offering a natural, soft-matte finish, it breathes life back onto your complexion without hiding your natural beauty.

Thanks to its highly pigmented nature, a little goes a long way with this blush and its buildability allows you to opt for a subtle sweep of colour or a more intense pop of colour depending on your mood or desired look.

 

In a consumer study on 32 volunteers over 24 hours, 100% of users agreed it applied smoothly & seamlessly,  100% of users agreed it had a soft, velvety texture and 100% of users felt it was easy to apply.

Strong results indeed which I completely concur with!

 

You can experience the KVD Beauty Everlasting Blush for yourselves now from Boots where each blush costs £22.

Dior Diorskin Nude BB Cream Glow Skin Perfecting Beauty Balm SPF 10

 Treat your skin to a truly luxurious experience with Dior’s Diorskin Nude BB Cream Glow SkinPerfecting Beauty Balm SPF 10.

This dreamy combination of skincare and make up is at the forefront of next generation complexion enhancers.

The silky, decadent cream perfects, protects and primes your skin to perfection in one simple step.

 

 

It features a unique balance of transparency, glow, perfection and hold, concealing imperfections while imparting a natural looking radiance.

Wonderfully lightweight and soft its melting texture is enriched with natural origin skin care ingredients and it adjusts perfectly to all skin tones.

Yep, even super pasty pale like mine.

 

 

The luxurious fluid glides onto your skin, disappearing almost instantly.

Unlike many BB creams which seem to vanish when applied, you’ll be pleased to hear that you can notice a real difference with this bad boy.

It offers minimal coverage, letting your natural beauty shine through but it does succeed at evening out skin tones and brightening your complexion with a natural glow.

 

 

It hydrates without drowning your skin leaving it feeling soft and comfortable while its rosy tinted glow lifts a dull, tired complexion, breathing life back into your skin.

For oily skinned lovelies I would advise ditching your regular moisturiser in favour for this balm to avoid clogged, heavy skin.

Because it contains SPF 10 you can rest assured that your skin will be protected throughout the day and it is nourishing enough to quench your oily prone skin.

 

My only gripe is that it is quite highly scented, however it does lose its potency throughout the day, though I’m not sure there’s a need to have such a highly fragranced BB cream but I suppose as its Dior it does add an extra dimension of opulence.

Luxurious and silky, it is a really gorgeous BB cream which will lift, brighten and perfect your complexion with ease.

The Dior Diorskin Nude BB Cream Glow Skin Perfecting Beauty Balm SPF 10 is available now and costs £33.

 

 

Glow Recipe Watermelon Glow Niacinamide Dew Drops

 If you’re all about that healthy glow when it comes to makeup and skincare then you’re gonna love this little gem from Glow Recipe.

Sitting within their iconic watermelon line of products is the Watermelon Glow Niacinamide Dew Drops (£31).

Housed within the prettiest pink iridescent, tear drop shaped vessel is a beautiful lightweight serum to help create the illusion of dewy, fresh skin.

Bridging the gap between makeup and skincare, this hybrid niacinamide-infused highlighting fluid helps to visibly brighten your skin and delivers an effortless glow while helping to reduce hyperpigmentation.

Formulated without mica, glitter, or pearls, the serum imparts long lasting hydration while offering a subtle yet detectable lift to your complexion.

Suitable for all skin types including oily and acne prone, it instantly highlights your skin and is packed full of a host of skin friendly ingredients.

 

Unsurprisingly, the key element in the line-up is of course, watermelon.

Packed with protective vitamins A and C, skin-plumping amino acids, and the phytonutrient lycopene It he, it helps to moisturise, plump and soothe your skin while improving the appearance of fine lines and wrinkles.

Niacinamide (a powerful vitamin and antioxidant) gets to work evening out your skin tone by reducing hyperpigmentation and dark spots.

It also helps to minimise the appearance of pores while soothing skin and brightening dullness.

Hyaluronic Acid, the undisputed king of skincare ingredients can hold up to a thousand times its weight in water, resulting in visibly plumped skin and vitamin E rich Moringa Seed Oil helps to deeply hydrate.

The serum itself is a beautifully lightweight fluid which possesses an almost gel like texture.

 

It glides across your skin, soothing and calming as it goes.

Skin is left feeling plump, firm and deeply nourished without feeling heavy, oily or greasy.

You can use the serum as the final step of your skincare routine or directly over the top of your makeup, depending on the intensity of the glow you’re after.

 

Unlike powder highlighters or indeed some liquid ones which can look pigmented and almost glittery, these Dew Drops manage to create the illusion of naturally highlighted skin without the aid of makeup.

They create an almost invisible sheen to your skin which catches the light to perfection, lifting a dull, tired looking complexion.

You can use them all over your face or concentrate on areas more traditionally associated with highlighters such as cheekbones and brow bones etc.

Its these kind of products that I really live for; skincare/cosmetic hybrids that don’t just create a gorgeous finish but actually look after your skin simultaneously.

 

They’re particularly good as well if you’re just after a little lift, say on the school run when you don’t have time to do a full face of makeup.

Applied over the top of your skincare regime they just bring your complexion to life, giving you the illusion of looking fresh and dewy, even if you’re dog tired.

Glow Recipe’s Watermelon Glow Niacinamide Dew Drops are available now from Cult Beauty and cost £31.

Despite its richness it is not at all greasy and doesn’t weigh your skin down or feel heavy, rather it simply leaves you feeling like you’re skin has been cocooned in a wonderfully comforting invisible velvet veil.

 

Lavender Moon is just one of the brands fragrance collections and as its name may suggest, is absolutely perfect for helping you to relax and unwind of an evening to encourage a restful, peaceful nights sleep.

Wash away the day and your troubles with the beautiful Lavender Moon Body Wash (£13).

 

Featuring relaxing plant-powered aromatherapy, this deeply soothing wash cleanser takes inspiration from the principals of aromatherapy with a carefully balanced mix antioxidant-rich plant extracts like aloe vera, rose flow, chamomile and lavender.

Last but by no means least we have what is probably my favourite product that I’ve tried thus far, the Lavender Moon Body & Pillow Mist (£12).

 

I’ve been using pillow mists for years and I wouldn’t be without them now and this one is just divine.

This fabulously soothing and calming mist features a water based formula infused with Pacifica’s signature plant-powered aromatherapy blend scented with relaxing lavender, aromatic rose and soft, creamy vanilla.

 

Just before you lay your head on your pillow to sleep, lightly mist your body, pillow and sheets with this gorgeous spray and take some long, slow, deep breaths.

Focus on the feeling of calmness as you breathe in its serene aroma, allowing your stresses and troubles to melt away as you focus on some quiet mindfulness.
