## Charlotte’s Beautifying Eye Trends Kit 



#### £71 | Charlotte Tilbury 



 

When it comes to great eye palettes and shadows, Charlotte Tilbury is hard to beat. This new one is full of soft neutrals that are universally flattering and easy to layer up or tone down for both day and night. There’s another set of shades available – think lilacs and deeper tones, but this is my new go-to for its wearability.

## Complexion Duo Brush 



#### £17 | Sculpted By Aimee 



 

Few brushes come close to my beloved IT Cosmetics Heavenly Luxe but this one is up there – and slightly more affordable. Double-ended, it works best for foundation and concealer and gets into all those little nooks and crannies – around the nose and eye area – for a flawless complexion.

*Available at* [SCULPTEDBYAIMEE.CO.UK](https://www.awin1.com/cread.php?awinmid=49249&awinaffid=69421&platform=dl&ued=https%3A%2F%2Fsculptedbyaimee.co.uk%2Fproducts%2Fcomplexion-brush)

## Eyes To Kill Classico 



#### £33 | Armani Beauty 



 

Newly formulated for better longevity, this mascara ticks all the boxes for me. It has a slight dome in the centre of the wand that gets right into your lash line, while the fine, thin bristles grab every little lash – even at the inner and outer corners – for even definition. There’s zero smudging with this one either and I love how jet-black it is.

*Available at* [ARMANIBEAUTY.CO.UK](https://www.awin1.com/cread.php?awinmid=15731&awinaffid=69421&platform=dl&ued=https%3A%2F%2Fwww.armanibeauty.co.uk%2Fmakeup%2Feyes%2Fmascara%2Feyes-to-kill-classico-mascara%2FAP11304.html)

## Liftactiv Collagen Specialist 16 Bonding Serum 



#### £43 | Vichy 



 

It’s been a while since a serum has really impressed me, but Vichy’s latest is full of science-backed ingredients that have definitely had an impact on my skin. Hefty marketing claims aside – it promises to improve the appearance of 16 signs of ageing – it has given my bumpy, uneven skin better texture, glow and suppleness. The best bit is how much brighter my normally sensitive and dull complexion looks. Plus, it’s thin and lightweight, mixing nicely with everything else in my routine.

## Purity Excel XTRA 60 Second Tan Remover 



#### £29.95 | Rose &amp; Caramel 



 

Don’t be fooled by the basic packaging, this remover is incredible. It tackles streaks, tan disasters and uneven patches in minutes – you just rub a small amount onto the offending area and watch the colour even out. It’s full of gentle exfoliants, but also fruit hydrators that prevent you from causing any aggravation or redness. Seeing how swiftly removes dead skin cells, I recommend it for angry ingrown hairs too.

## Milk Eau De Parfum 



#### £135 | Commodity 



 

I love a fragrance that conjures up the scent of freshly washed skin and sheets. This matches that with – as the name suggests – a creamy, milky dry down that is so addictive. It’s comforting and musky, but unlike other skin scents, this one really lingers , which makes it great for nights out.

*Available at* [COMMODITYFRAGRANCES.CO.UK](https://www.awin1.com/cread.php?awinmid=26827&awinaffid=69421&platform=dl&ued=https%3A%2F%2Fcommodityfragrances.co.uk%2Fproducts%2Fmilk-personal)

## Multi-Active Delivery Essence 



#### Coming Soon | The Ordinary 



 

The new toner is so refreshing. Full of anti-reddening niacinamide, it’s been a godsend for any inflammation, while zinc and glycerin have both kept breakouts and dryness at bay. A little swiped over skin leaves it feeling soft and ready for any other treatments you then apply – like serums and masks. You’ll be hard pushed to find a better or more reasonably priced essence than this.

## Orphéon Eau De Parfum 



#### £160 | Diptyque 



 

Who doesn’t love Diptyque’s Orphéon? An icon in the fragrance world, it’s now available in this limited-edition, slightly larger bottle. Warming, powdery and reminiscent of a vintage bar of soap, it balances leathery notes with fresh berries and musky tonka bean. There’s something so luxe about this scent, but it never overpowers the wearer, nor does it feel cloying. It’s the one I reach for when I need some comfort.

## Nourishing Brow Oil 



#### £27 | Blink Brow Bar London 



 

I’m on a bit of a brow journey at the moment and this is my new go-to for taming my newly threaded arches. It gives them a glossy, laminated and full effect without making them too spiky. I’ve also noticed tiny new hairs since using it, which is said to be down to the natural and organic oils inside. I love that it’s gentle enough to use on lashes too, helping to strengthen and condition them when they feel brittle.

## Phantom Volumising Glossy Balms 



#### £36 | Hourglass 



 

I could write an entire ode to the Hourglass Glossy Balms – specifically the shade ‘Slip’ which I’d say is the best neutral pink available. But there are some new tones to get excited about – out of ‘Wander,’ ‘Secret,’ ‘Invite,’ and ‘True Red’, the latter is my favourite. It brightens teeth, lifts your entire complexion and isn’t too pillar-box red, meaning you can get away with it in the daytime too. For those yet to try them, they provide all the longevity of a lipstick but with the comfort of a glossy balm.

## Japanese Camellia Body Oil Blend 



#### £46 | Elemis 



 

Stretchmarks and dryness are no match for this silky, lightweight oil. Pregnant and expanding by the day, I’ve been experimenting with body oils that *don’t* cause my eczema to flare up but *do* hydrate flaky skin and keep it feeling supple and elastic. I swear by this. Not only is it a joy to apply, but it really does keep my body looking that bit smoother and more toned. Will it continue? Who can say, but for now it’s my go-to. A little bit splashed into the bath is a real treat, too.

*Available at* [ELEMIS.COM](https://prf.hn/click/camref:1011lfgLy/destination:https%3A%2F%2Fuk.elemis.com%2Fjapanese-camellia-body-oil.html)
