Kevyn Aucoin Sensual Skin Enhancer
I love it because...
it’s like adding a layer of perfect skin to your own. You can use as much or as little as you like.
Glossier Cloud Paint
I love it because...
it’s a liquid gel that gives you the most beautiful flush. The kind you get when you’ve been out in the cold or had a great night ;)
Sara Happ Dream Slip Balm
I love it because...
it gets rid of any dryness on the lips, no matter how bad. One of the best lip balms I've used!
Elf Cosmetics 18 Hit Wonders Eyeshadow
I love it because...
it’s a great palette for experimenting with. It has a good amount of neutral tones, mixed with brights. Try wetting an eyeliner brush and creating a flick with the brights.
Daniel Sandler Watercolour Liquid Blush
I love it because...
it gives you the most gorgeous, fresh cheek. Pour a tiny amount on a blusher buff and buff into the apples of the cheeks.
Amanda Harrington Face Mist
I love it because...
Amanda taught me the joy of Tantour. (Contouring with fake tan-yep, that’s a thing)!! Her products are a mix of makeup and skincare so they don’t dry the skin out like a lot of tans. Apply with her brush for best results.
Biafine Emulsion
I love it because...
it’s a a Parisian treasure. A multi use emulsion that works wonders on sunburnt, red skin, as well as dehydrated skin and psoriasis. I use it a lot on models legs at fashion week.
Charlotte Tilbury Kim KW Lipstick
I love it because ...
it’s the perfect nude. Charlotte’s lipsticks are always so comfortable on the lips and they are pretty long wear. Pair it with a mega smokey eye.
Colossal Eua De Lait
I love it because...
Karl Lagerfield famously bathed in it, and he looked pretty damn good. It’s also an amazing cleanser and the formulation is a family secret.
Elemis Peptide Thousand Flowers Mask
I love it because...
it’s a mineral rich face mask gives your skin an amazing glow. You can never go wrong with an Elemis product.
Chanel Healthy Glow Bronzing Cream
I love it because...
it’s potentially the best bronzer in the land. A cream gel that buff’s into the skin flawlessly giving you the healthiest glow. I like to use a full haired bronzer brush to apply.
Elemis Pro Collagen Neroli Cleanser
I love it because...
firstly it smells incredible, just like a spa. Secondly the texture is so luxurious. It’s an oil balm meaning it removes all makeup, leaving your skin feeling beautiful.
Chanel Baume Essentiel in Sculpting
I love it because...
it gives you the dewiest skin you could ever dream of. It became a makeup artist must have over night, and has sold out multiple times. Honestly, I couldn’t be without this baby now. Pat it on the high points of the face for the most beautiful skin finish. Also incredible on the eyes and lips.
Hada Labo Tokyo Super Hydrator
I love it because...
I never knew I needed it and now I can’t live without it. This baby has 4 hylarounic acids In it, meaning its ridiculously hydrating. Apply it after cleanser and before moisturiser. It’s £16 and 150ml so you can afford to put it on the chest and hands too. It’s the No1 skincare brand in Japan for a reason.
Benefit Cosmetics Precisely My Brow Pencil
I love it because...
it has an ultra fine tip meaning you can create hair like strokes. It is perfect for adding a natural definition to any brow. The spoolie on the end is great for blending. And the formula is a gel wax, meaning it goes on easily yet stays put all day long.
Isle of Paradise Self Tanning Drops
I love it because...
this is the easiest tan in a bottle. Literally add 2-3 drops to your moisturiser at night and wake up with a healthy glow. Jules Von Hep who is the brands co-founder, is also one of the greatest human beings in the land.
Kate Somerville Uncomplikated
I love it because...
why has this not been created before?!! Its a spray on SPF by a skincare legend. It’s lightweight and has an SPF50. It has an amazing velvety finish. Make sure you spray it on before you get dressed as the remnants of the spray can add a white dust to your clothes. They just wipe off, but best to do before.
Benefit Cosmetics Roller Liner
I love it because...
it has a super fine, long tip. Perfect for creating an epic eyeliner flick. It’s jet black but dries matte, and it doesn’t transfer like a lot of felt pen liners.
Benefit Cosmetics Gimme Brow
I love it because...
it’s a fibre gel that literally mimics the appearance of real hair. It fills in any gaps, and adds a natural looking volume to the brow in seconds. Go away from the hair and then back with the hair to make the most of it’s magic. Use it alone or over the top of any other eyebrow product.
