TAN LUXE THE WATER
“When it comes to fake tanning, I feel like I’m willing to try them all. But when it comes to tanning my face, I am a little more fussy. The last thing you want is a patchy face, that ends up breaking out in the process. The Water from Tan Luxe is the answer to all my prayers. Not only does it tan the body beautifully with an even glow, it’s perfect for the face, thanks to it’s light texture. A must-have for all tanning lovers.”
Ashleigh, Content Executive
NEOM REAL LUXURY REED DIFFUSER
“I love a scented candle but recently I’ve become obsessed with filling my house with reed diffusers – they’re basically a heatless/safer alternative which constantly fill the air with fragrance. One thing I’ve learned is that it’s definitely worth investing in a more luxe, high-end diffuser – the scent is stronger and lasts much longer. Although this NEOM one sits in my living room, I can smell it as soon as I enter my house and it still fills the space as well as it did when I first opened it a month ago. The scent is a blend of jasmine, lavender, and rosewood – it’s calming, comforting, and smells every bit as luxurious as its name (Real Luxury) suggests.”
Grace, Content Marketing Manager
AURELIA CELL REVITALISE NIGHT MOISTURISER
“The Aurelia cell revitalise moisturiser is an absolute treat for my super dry skin! It leaves my skin so plump and glowy the next day. The buttery texture and scent of lavender and essential oils feels so luxurious too – my favourite step in my night time routine.”
Jodie, Social Media Manager
AESOP RESOLUTE HYDRATING BODY BALM
“This body balm is amazing and has me feeling so soft and smelling delicious after every shower! It makes my usual shower feel even more luxurious and the scent lasts for so long.”
Summer, Mid-weight Designer
DAVINES SU HAIR MASK
“I’m not lying when I say I am OBSESSED with this hair mask. If you’ve got longer hair that tends to tangle easily, this one’s definitely for you – trust me, I’ve tried many! I find it especially useful coming into warmer weather, as it really adds the hydration back into your hair from being around sun and sea salt. I find my best results are using your favourite shampoo as normal and using as your conditioner but keep in for 10 minutes.”
Emily, Merchandiser
OLAPLEX NO.5 BOND MAINTENANCE CONDITIONER
“My naturally wavy (and very frizzy!) hair LOVES this conditioner. As soon as I put it on I can feel the difference, and I have to use way less product day to day to keep it smooth. A must have!”
Alex, Creative Production Manager
WHO IS ELIJAH NOMAD EAU DE PARFUM
“I love love LOVE the Who is Elijah – Nomad, it has such a velvety smell to it! The mix of woody and floral notes make it the perfect perfume if you like something not too sweet and not too masculine! I’ve literally been wearing it none stop and even with just a few sprays of it the smell lasts all day and night! Perfect for an evening out! It’s my new go to fragrance and I’ll defo be getting the bigger bottle next time when it runs out!”
Hayley, Mid-weight Retoucher
FLORAL STREET THE DISCOVERY SET
“As someone who can be quite indecisive about picking fragrances this is a lovely way to pick a scent to match your mood. An 8 piece mini EDP set ranging from Summer floral to Soft Fruity to Sweet Musks scents, there’s a fragrance for everyone! Perfect for on the go.”
Nicole, NPD Manager
PETER THOMAS ROTH 24K GOLD MASK
“I’ve always been a big fan of the Peter Thomas Roth Face Masks, and this 24K Gold Mask has to be one of my favourites! Even though it’s a bit on the pricier side, the size definitely makes up for it as you get SO much product and it lasts forever! Skin definitely feels firmer and glowing after every use – would 100% recommend!”
Alexandra, Paid Social Media Manager
ESTEE LAUDER DOUBLE WEAR STAY IN PLACE FOUNDATION
“The only foundation that works with my oily skin. Flawless finish with the longest wear. Can’t imagine using anything else, the hype for this foundation is there for a reason!”
Karina, Finance Assistant
HINDASH MANIFESTO lipstick
“I love a nude lippy and this Hindash one did not fail. Call Me Peaches is a must have for every beauty bag. It applies so easy and even though it is a matte lipstick it feels silky and not dry at all. It was the perfect match to my fav Mac lip liner in Spice.”
Jennifer, Executive Assistant
