Georgina was telling me that she had been constantly recommended the Laura Mercier Translucent setting powder by a friend, however she was reluctant to buy it due to the cost, after trying her friends for the first time, she was hooked and said it was worth every penny!
This week Joanna and I visited the Professional Beauty Show in London’s ExCel where we were able to see all the latest developments in the beauty industry with over 800 brands all under one roof!
On the 11th of Feb the girls and I were lucky enough to go and visit the Burts Bees pop up shop in right around the corner form our office in Covent Garden!
When someone in our office tries a new makeup product, everyone wants to hear about it!
So, when Georgina tried the Becca Champagne pop highlighter after a friend recommended it, she was keen to tell me how good it is!
Milk Makeup has finally come to the UK!
Founded in 2016 in Milk Studios NYC and LA Milk Makeup took the US by storm with their minimal packaging and amazing products produced with clean ingredients.
On the 23rd of January I was lucky enough to join other beauty enthusiasts at the Good housekeeping Institute in London for a CEW talk and learn all about Korean cosmetics and how they are influencing the western market.
Half Korean half English Cosmetic Scientist Lorna Radford gave us an incredible insight into the up-coming trends in Korean cosmetics….
With each year, the beauty business gets bigger and bigger — and as a result, more and more exciting! In 2017, the market value for beauty and personal care reached around 14.6 billion euros. In 2018 the expected market value will be over 15 billion euros.
As a self-professed ‘Google Queen’, I am ALWAYS Googling the answers to my questions and wanted to check out what Google had to say about beauty this year.
The Best of….
Lip Balms
Keeping your lips hydrated and looking lush in winter is always a toughie. Dealing with cold temperatures, rainy days and frosty mornings can take its toll and leave lips feeling dry, chapped and in need of some TLC. Here are some of the best lip balms to help treat your lips and keep them hydrated all whilst giving you a pop of your favourite shade.
MAC STROBE CREAM
I’ve been wanting to try out MAC’s very own strobe cream for a while but never really gravitated towards the product too much, so I decided to purchase the smaller ‘travel sized’ cream for just £12.00 and immediately fell in love with it. I find myself reaching for this item more often than not.
I thought my skin would feel thick after using it however I couldn’t have been more wrong. The cream was silky and sooo smooth, it melts into the skin instantly and really does quite literally turn up the glow on those cheekbones, brows and the rest of the skin although if you are prone to an oily T zone which the majority of us are, then I would not recommend smothering this onto your forehead or chin (I made this mistake already and it was not too pretty.)
As mentioned, the consistency of the product is very smooth and silky and applies with ease and works well with just using your fingers for application, so no brushes are needed, the warmth of your fingertips is enough to work the product into the face.
At a price point of £11 this spray is affordable, which is good news because it is a great product for everyone!
This product claims to be refreshing and hydrating spritz to revitalize your complexion throughout the day and evening. Okay so I’m just going to come out and say it, I love this product!
