With moving house in October and spending 90% of my time living in sweats with no makeup on, I didn’t try as many products as I normally would. The ones I did however are noteworthy, so I’ve rounded up a handful in this post! I’m looking forward to getting back into the swing of filming over the next couple of weeks and getting creative in my new home studio set up. I have a pile of new products I’m planning to try and feedback on so stay tuned!

PHLUR | Vanilla Skin Eau De Parfum
This is one for my vanilla scent lovers! I mentioned the Phlur Vanilla Skin Hair & Body Mist in a previous blog post as I’ve been layering it with a variety of my favourite fragrances.
I’d been wearing it so often that I have since purchased the travel size Eau De Parfum to keep in my handbag to spritz on the go because it smells INCREDIBLE! I now have the full size on my wishlist because I seriously can’t get enough of it.
FENTY | Shimmer & Spice Cinnamon Duo
On the topic of smelling like desserts I was SO excited to see Fenty Skin bring back the Cinnamon Butta Drop Body Cream this year in a holiday gift set! I was using my last pot sparingly from last year as it’s only ever limited edition.
They’ve also brought out their Plush Puddin lip mask in the same scent with a subtle shimmer through it. I love sleeping in this as I wake up with nourished, pillow soft lips!
I hope they bring this out as a permanent addition to their body care line up because it is delicious!

FENTY | Gloss Bomb Swirl (fu$$y flex)
Another Fenty Beauty product and this time they’ve brought us a new gloss bomb in a yummy candy like swirl mashup!
Combining both shades ‘fuchsia flex’ and ‘fu$$y’ each dip is different, delivering a lovely pink shimmer in the Gloss Bomb formula we all know and love. If you have your eye on it I’d be quick as I think it is limited for the holiday season but I hope they make it permanent and launch more shades!

SPACE NK | Mini Travel Bag
If you’ve read my previous blog posts you’ve likely already seen me mention this but I had to give a shoutout here too.
I’ve been loving packing those everyday essentials in this little mini travel bag and chucking it in my handbag so I can access with ease whilst on the go!
REFY | Blur Liners
Refy are known for their innovative products within the beauty space and these Blur Liners are no different. They create that blurry lip look that you’d achieve from lining your lips and buffing out with your finger or a brush but in an instant!
I’ve been enjoying using the nude shades to create a shadow around the perimeter of my lip line to give the illusion of a fuller lip.

ARMANI | Luminous Silk Acqua Highlighter
I feel like I’ve been through a phase this year of skipping the highlighter step in my makeup routine. Mostly because the blushers I opt for generally have a dewy finish and I don’t feel the need for one. I also haven’t been excited by any enough to want to use them in my routine.
Armani Beauty recently launched these Luminous Silk Acqua Highlighters and changed my attitude completely! These are a beautiful liquid formula that layer seamlessly over makeup and deliver the perfect amount of pearlescent glow without being glittery or sticky. A little goes a long way too so it would last you a really long time!
ARMANI | Si Passione Intense Eau De Parfum
Another fragrance that has shot straight to the top of my collection is the new Armani Si Passione Intense Eau De Parfum.
I was lucky enough to be invited to Paris this month with Armani Beauty to celebrate the launch, where I got to speak with perfumer Julie Masse. She spoke to us all about the creation and notes in the fragrance which include pear, jasmine, blackcurrant and vanilla. It’s truly one of those versatile scents that you can wear everyday or for special occasions.
If you’re on the hunt for a new fragrance I’d definitely recommend giving it a try or putting it on the Christmas wishlist!
