Sad to say goodbye to summer but, I have to admit, Sad to say goodbye to summer but, I have to admit, I do love a good autumn makeup look 🍁🍂 What are your go-to autumn makeup products?
#ad | Gifted products These @carbontheory toners #ad | Gifted products These @carbontheory toners are great for a weekly skin refresh 💜🧡💚 My skin is pretty sensitive so I can’t use them everyday, but they definitely come in clutch when my skin is feeling a bit dull and congested 🙌 Have you tried these? If so, which is your fave?
#ad | Gifted products Currently testing the Aqua #ad | Gifted products Currently testing the Aqua Bomb Moisturiser and Eye Gel from @belif_uk and I’m seriously impressed so far!💧 I love how cooling and hydrating these are. The moisturiser is lovely and light - the perfect base for makeup. And the eye gel is really refreshing, it instantly energises my tired eyes. These are pretty heavy on fragrance - just something to bear in mind if your skin is particularly sensitive. Otherwise I think both products would work well for all skin types, whether you’re dry or oily. Have you tried this duo yet? 🩵
#ad | Gifted products marked with * Autumn is on #ad | Gifted products marked with * Autumn is on its way 🍁🍂 Here are my last empties of the summer… 🫶 = Would repurchase 🤷‍♀️ = Might repurchase 👋 = Wouldn’t repurchase Kate Somerville Eradikate Clarifying Blemish Gel Cleanser This cleanser uses a combo of salicylic acid and niacinamide to unclog pores and control oil production. It does a great job at balancing and refreshing the skin in a really gentle way. I don’t think they sell this anymore which is such a shame! I’d defo repurchase if I could! SKIN1004 Hyalu-Cica Water-Fit Sun Serum 🫶 I’m sure I’ve reviewed this many times before so I probably don’t need to say too much here! This is my absolute favourite sunscreen - I actually think this might be the fifth or sixth tube I’ve got through. It doesn’t sting, it doesn’t pill and it’s not too shiny. I always make sure I’m stocked up on this. Jones Road The Bronzer in Light Tan* 🫶 This has been my go-to daily bronzer since I got it. It’s finely milled and diffuses so nicely - I don’t get any patchiness at all. Highly recommend! NARS Radiant Creamy Concealer in Chantilly 🫶 Another daily makeup staple that I’d be lost without. This has such great coverage without looking thick or cakey on the skin. Chantilly is also a great shade match for me - I haven’t found anything else that comes close! Rare Beauty Liquid Touch Hydrating Concealer 🤷‍♀️ Not bad. I like how natural this looks but it doesn’t offer much in the way of coverage. There’s nothing massively wrong with it, there’s just other concealers I’d reach for before this one. Wild Deodorant Refill* 🫶 I’m finally making a dent in these refills! I know natural deodorants can be quite divisive but I do find that Wild deodorant works well for me. Have you tried any of these?
Rainy weather 🤝 a long overdue self-care day T Rainy weather 🤝 a long overdue self-care day These @espaskincare eye patches are a must after a busy week 🙌
@beautyofjoseon_official never misses, and their R @beautyofjoseon_official never misses, and their Retinal Eye Cream is another hit! I initially wasn’t completely sold, but after continued use I do think I can see small changes. The skin around my eyes looks smoother and I feel that the fine lines have lessened slightly. No difference to the dark circles… one eye cream can’t do it all though! I’m a bit of an eye cream sceptic, but I do think this one actually brings about results! Have you tried this one yet? 💖

It’s August already?! Where is the year going? ☀️ Only three empties for July. A bit disappointing but there will definitely be more this month! 🫶 = Would repurchase 🤷‍♀️ = Might repurchase 👋 = Wouldn’t repurchase @larocheposay Cicaplast Baume B5 🫶 - This comes in really handy for skin emergencies. I don’t use it all the time, but I do like to have it on standby in case my skin barrier needs a bit of TLC. @firstaidbeauty KP Smoothing Body Scrub 🤷‍♀️ - I like this scrub but I don’t think it’s made any huge changes to my skin. I have similar, cheaper scrubs that do the same job. That said, I do have the strawberry version on my wish list - fruit-scented body care is my weakness 🍓😆 @redkenpro Volume Injection Shampoo and Conditioner 👋 - I didn’t mind this but I don’t think I’d splash out on it again. It does boost volume, but it made my hair a bit dry at the same time. I’d give the Acidic Bonding Concentrate a go next time instead. Have you tried any of these? What are your thoughts?
