It's been so long since I did a favourites post. I used to do them monthly, maybe I should get back to that. What do you think? Let me know in the comments.
My
routine has been quite boring for a while now, I haven't changed things
up so there's not much to talk about. I've been using the same skincare
and wearing the same make-up, purely because I'm trying to use things
up. Using things up can be so tedious.
There are two products that I've been using for the last few months and absolutely loving. They were both gifted to me.
I'm really glad that I was sent Sunescape products as they're not products I would have purchased myself, however I will definitely be purchasing them once they've run out. I'm working on a full review of all the products, so keep an eye out for that. Today I'll just tell you about one of the products, the Hydrating Body Butter. It was love at first application.
First up, I love the scent. It's amazing. It's a beautiful blend of coconut and lime that I wish came in a perfume, I'd buy it for sure. When I hear coconut and lime I think of something topical, however this smells edible, like rich cake.
Secondly, despite being super hydrating, it absorbs quickly, which is perfect in winter when I don't want to stand around for ages waiting for my body lotion to absorb.
Hydrating Body Butter is full of lovely, skin loving ingredients such as sweet almond oil, shea butter, cacao butter, argan oil, coconut oil, avocado oil, macadamia seed oil, aloe vera, vitamin e, green tea, kiwi seed oil and kakadu plum.
All Sunescape products are free from petrochemicals, parabens and sulphates. Their fake tans are one of the few tans I can use (most of them irritate my skin).
A 250ml tub costs $29.95.
If you sign up on the Sunescape website you'll get 15% off your first order.
The other product I've been loving lately is the newest addition to the Bobbi Brown Crushed range, the Crushed Oil-Infused Gloss. If you've been after the perfect lip gloss/lipstick/lip balm hybrid, this is it.
When I wear this I feel like I'm wearing lip balm, yet when I look in the mirror it looks like a glossy lipstick. Perfect. Bobbi Brown has really nailed it with this formula.
Oil-Infused Gloss contains lots of lovely hydrating oils including; apricot, olive seed, kukui seed, avocado, jojoba and coffee seed oils. These oils make the gloss super hydrating and very comfortable to wear. Unlike regular gloss, it's not at all sticky.
The shade shown here is New Romantic, which is a great, everyday mauve pink. I get around three hours wear before the color fades, however my lips feel hydrated for a few hours after the gloss is gone.
A 6ml tube costs $40.
