New Beauty Buys

I’ve been so cut off from the world of beauty and blogging for a good long while now, and it’s been so incredibly boring!

Let’s call it job hunting and prioritising, but I’ve had a few things on my shelf for ages that I couldn’t use until I’d photographed, and well, here we finally are.

I was so indecisive about the Urban Decay x Gwen Stefani blush palette. I much prefer matte blushers, but Hush alone is the reason I caved. Aside from my huge obsession with Gwen, you know?

I’ve been to a ridiculous number of M&S stores, but most of the Rosie for Autograph Beauty is sold out. As Rosie is my makeup idol, I feel personally victimised, so please sort it out, M&S! For now, I’ve settled on this pretty brush set. The bristles are so incredibly soft and considering what a bargain this set was, £28, they feel very luxurious! I’ve never been a fan of rose gold, but I feel that might be changing.

My hair and hands have been unhappy lately, so I’m planning on immersing myself into twice weekly hair masks, and copious amounts of hand cream. I’ve never tried L’Oreal Elvive masks but this Extraordinary Oil number might be interesting.

For my paws, Hand Chemistry’s HA3: Triple Function Hydrator better do the trick, as the brand doesn’t come cheap. The good thing is, they sell travel sizes like this tube, so you can test before committing to their full-sized versions. This is the second Hand Chemistry product I’ve tried, and I sure hope I like it more than the last.

For brows, I’m loyal to Urban Decay’s Faint eyeshadow, but I’ve dropped my Basics palette so many times that I’m scared to keep using it. Anastasia Beverly Hills’ Brow Powder Duo in Ebony seems much darker than I prefer, but I’ll give it a go. It’s so tiny and cute, and hopefully shatterproof!

Lastly, and what I’m most excited about it my Trilogy Age Proof CoQ10 Booster Oil. Trilogy is one of my favourite skin care brands, so anything more of theirs I can try and I’ll surely be happy.
