Sweet, floral scents are my go-to all year round, so I love when spring rolls around and my perfumes actually match the season 😆🌷🐝

What’s your perfume pick for spring?

Quick fire reviews of my March empties 🗑️♻️

🫶 = Would repurchase
🤷‍♀️ = Might repurchase
👋 = Wouldn’t repurchase

@dermatica.skin Balancing Glycerin Gel Cleanser* 🫶 - Gentle and unscented, this is the perfect non-stripping gel cleanser. I highly recommend it for easily-irritated skin.

@cosrx Advanced Snail 96 Mucin Power Essence 🫶 - This one needs no explanation, it’s an icon for a reason. Really hydrating and super calming, it’s a must for dry, sensitive skin!

@otpskin 24/7 Moisturiser* 🤷‍♀️ - I love how this smells and how easily it blends into the skin. The only thing that would stop me from repurchasing is that it pills quite a lot if you don’t pair it with the right products.

@round.lab Birch Juice Sun Cream 🫶 - Easily within my top 3 when it comes to sunscreens. I love how moisturising it is and how natural the finish is. Most importantly, it doesn’t sting my eyes!

@glowhubbeauty Beat the Bacne Body Cleanser 🫶 - Simple but effective. This smells nice and really helps improve skin texture.

@beautyofjoseon_official Ginseng Essence Water 🫶 - This is soothing and very lightweight. It’s also absorbs quickly and layers well, no complaints here!

@thebodyshop Almond Milk Body Butter 🫶 - This feels so luxe. It smells great and has such a rich texture. It takes a little while to massage into the skin but it does dry down to a nice non-sticky finish.

Have you tried any of these? 💗

Merit just launched two new products, here are my thoughts!

Signature Lip Liner 🌸
I really love how soft and creamy this liner is. It applies smoothly without any tugging, and you get a lot of colour payoff with just a light touch. This blends really easily for a soft, diffused look and it feels super weightless on the lips - no waxiness at all! The fact that it’s retractable is a HUGE plus! It’s cool that it also comes with a built-in sharpener, but at £21 for 0.3g of product you’re not really going to want to shave this down! The formula is beautiful but there’s not a lot of product, I can see myself getting through this quite quickly!

Shade Slick 🎀
This is part of Merit’s new The Sheens collection which is actually a completely different formula to their original Shade Slicks. The Sheens are more nourishing, longer-wearing and have a subtle pearlescent finish. This has quickly become my go-to lip oil - it’s so hydrating and really comfortable to wear. I love that this isn’t sticky or heavy, and it’s still decently pigmented (even for a sheer formula). Pointelle is such a stunning ‘my lips but better’ shade and it goes so well with the lip liner in Coupé.

Have you tried either of these? What are your thoughts? 💗✨

A new season calls for a new makeup bag and luckily I just finished crocheting this one 🌸🌷🌼

What are your spring makeup go-tos?

With the post-Christmas sales, and some Space NK c

With the post-Christmas sales, and some Space NK credit, I managed to grab this @glossier Limited Edition Biscotti + Espresso Balm Dotcom duo for £8 which I thought was an absolute steal.

I must admit though, I don’t tend to reach for either of these that often.

The scents aren’t terrible but they’re more artificial than I expected. Biscotti is super sweet, and Espresso smells quite bitter.

I always find Glossier’s Balm Dotcoms quite difficult to squeeze out of the tube, and these were no different. Having said that, I do like the texture once it’s on the lips. It becomes lighter and oilier. It also lasts an absolute age.

Overall, these are ok, but not worth bringing back as permanent additions to the Balm Dotcom line-up. I’m also glad I didn’t buy them at full price!!

Have you tried these?
