Brighten up January with Sol De Janeiro!

Although we can see the evenings stretching a little longer already, January has been a dull and quite dreary month so to inject some life, zest and colour into my life, I've been using some gorgeous Sol De Janeiro products! The bright packaging alone is enough to put a smile on my face!

REVIEW: NARS Natural Radiant Longwear Foundation

I really didn't need another foundation and I'm supposed to be saving for my trip to New York but when I saw that Nars were releasing Natural Radiant Longwear Foundation, I simply couldn't resist! I really like Sheer Glow, however it is neither sheer nor glowy in my opinion, so I always mixed it with a small amount of Armani Luminous Silk foundation to make it work perfectly for me - therefore, I wondered if this new foundation could replace both of those and if actually it would look natural and radiant?

My Top 5 Omorovicza products

Regular readers will know that I am a skincare obsessive and they will also know that one of my favourite skincare brands is Omorovicza. I did a Brand Focus post last year (here) but because there is free shipping (including internationally) on Cult Beauty on all Omorovicza products for the month of January, I wanted to share my top five with you. If you have never tried anything from the brand before, what you need to know is that the products are not harsh in any way but they are also very effective.

REVIEW: Natasha Denona Lila Palette

Because I have green eyes, I love purple shadows but it is very difficult to find ones that tick all boxes - pigmented, don't fade when blended, long-lasting and not chalky. When I saw Natasha Denona's Lila palette, which was released last summer, I instantly wanted it but I just couldn't justify the price when I already had so many palettes. Luckily for me, I received it for Christmas and the person who gave it to my said they bought it during the Sephora sale, where they got 20% off the price so it is worth keeping your eye out for those sales that happen twice yearly as far as I'm aware because 20% certainly takes the sting out of any price tag.

January pick me up products for the face & body featuring Peter Thomas Roth, Absolute Aromas, Clarins & more!

I know that January is traditionally a month where people begin punishing diets and routines after the excesses of the festive season but that is not how I am spending this month! I'm just getting over pneumonia so, for me, it's all about taking care of myself and my body in order to recuperate. That being said, these products will help combat the effects of excesses (food and drink for some, meds and illness for me!).

REVIEW: Charlotte Tilbury Brightening Youth Glow Primer

It's pretty obvious that I'm a huge fan of Charlotte Tilbury makeup, so when I saw that she was releasing a new primer, I knew that I had to have it! I already own Wonderglow, which really does live up to the glow in its name so I was intrigued as to how different Brightening Youth Glow primer would be.
