I’ll be picking up the Makeup Revolution PH Bomb Lip & Cheek Oil. I’m a lazy girl at heart so I love a multi-tasking product that can be applied easily on the go. It will save space in my makeup bag as I’ll use it as a lip oil and blusher. The best bit is it adapts to the users pH, so will give me the perfect pink flush every time. 

I’m dying to get my hands on the Solawave Advanced Skincare Wand for so many obvious reasons. Light therapy is a major skincare trend and seems to be the solution for most of my skin concerns. I’ve always been super insecure about wrinkles, dark spots, hyperpigmentation, and dark circles so when I saw that this skincare wand can make a difference with just five minutes of use a day, I was convinced. I’m a lazy girl too, so the idea of gliding this tool across my skin (wherever I am, because yes, she is portable) to address my long list of skin concerns sounds more than ideal.

I’m already a big fan of Coco & Eve’s hair products and tan so I’m really keen to try their skincare range, and the Coco & Eve Depuff Eye Cream is at the top if my wish list. I’m always on the hunt for a good eye cream as I often have tired eyes and struggle with dark circles, and this one is meant to help brighten and lift tired-looking eyes which is perfect for me! An added bonus is that the packaging of their skincare range is super cute.

Since I saw the reveal for the Anastasia Beverly Hills Limited Edition: Chinese New Year Glow Seeker Highlighter I knew I had to have it! I am obsessed with the packaging and the gorgeous dragon design that makes the highlighter look too lovely to use. I have been waiting patiently for the launch to get my hands on this limited edition product! The highlighter is buildable and perfect from the daily natural look to the party season we all spend hours preparing for. It includes a mirror which is essential to any girls make up bag for that quick top up. I’ll definitely have to hold back using this product every day because I want it to last forever!

If you look in any handbag or coat pocket of mine, I can guarantee you’ll find a plumping lip gloss. It’s a daily essential for me at this point, and I love to try new formulas and shades. I’m such a NYX girlie so I’m super excited to try their new plumping gloss!

New year, same me but with better self-care habits! This month i’ve been reflecting on all things #everythingshower and how to keep my skin and hair healthy, so the Mac Hyper Real Cream To Foam Cleanser is at the top of my payday wishlist. It’s important to me to set achievable habits that don’t feel too daunting, so being able to fully cleanse away my makeup before bed in one step makes things so easy to maintain. Since we’re still in those cold and dry winter months, cleansing my skin with something that will break down and wash away the days dirt and impurities without drying out my skin is a must! Cheers to healthy habits for emotional self-care in 2024!

Since purchasing the Clinique Black Honey in the summer I have been a converted Clinique customer, so as the weather continues to get colder and colder and my skin craves some hydration, I looked straight to see what Clinique is offering. What caught my eye was the ‘Clinique Jumbo Dramatically Different Moisturizing Gel’, with key ingredients like hyaluronic acid to ensure hydration and sunflower seed cake, barley extract & cucumber extract that strengthens your skin’s natural barrier it is definitely at the top of my wishlist for this month. 

The festive season is rarely kind to anyone’s skin, and after a diet of chocolate reindeer my complexion is definitely suffering the consequences. That’s why I’m super excited to try out the By BEAUTY BAY Refine + Soothe Serum, which is designed specifically to minimise the appearance of pores while improving skin texture and tone. When it comes to clearing solutions, I usually worry about my skin drying out, especially when it’s extra sensitive thanks to the cold winter weather. The Refine + Soothe Serum is enriched with a soothing combination of bisabolol and allantoin, meaning I can enjoy clear skin without the worry of irritation or dryness that I would typically get from other treatments. A serious skin detox is pending!

A total victim to the K-Beauty hype, I am dying to get my hands on the Tocobo Vita Glazed Lip Mask to give my lips some well needed hydration during these cold winter months! It has an amazing mix of natural, exfoliating ingredients to remove the dead skin cells before locking in the hydration. Plus it comes in the cutest packaging ever! A late Christmas present from me, to me!

With the winter weather really affecting my skin, leaving it feeling super dry, I’m excited to get my hands on the Elf Hydrating Camo CC cream this payday! I love that this product is described to provide a semi-matte finish while hydrating and smoothing the skin. The added bonus is that this also provides SPF 30 protection, which even in the cold winter months is still a must have! 

I’m obsessed with Trixie Mattel as it is, so her cosmetics I’m already sold. When I saw the Horse Girl collection, I knew it had to become part of my routine and collection (yes she has a problem and we’re embracing it). 

 I absolutely love the warm neautral tones, as well as the super shimmery shades. Especially coming into the new year and spring, this will be the perfect palette!
