Best Beauty Products of 2017: Skincare Favourites

Best Beauty Products of 2017: Skincare Favourites

Vitamin C Cosmetopia Digest   Tuesday, December 19, 2017

I spent the major part of the last weekend ruminating over my wardrobe - as everyone, from my Mum and Gran to my friends, keeps telling me, it is boh-ring, old-maidish, and predominantly black. So I went out hunting for new outfits and came home with two - both black.
Mum came to see for herself, and lost it. She has now taken matters into her own hands. Apparently, for her Christmas present for me, she's taking me shopping in the last week of the year (I forsee getting half my hair pulled out in the mad crowds), and will CHOOSE my outfits. I also forsee some rather colourful rows.
She is right, though. From the time I started dressing myself, I've been choosing outfits that actually make me seem older, not younger. My favourite kind is the classic-length shift dress, and I own a few dozen of these in BLACK alone. I can see why she wants to take drastic action, although there is no way I can explain why I gravitate towards the same kind of clothes so much.
Before the chaos due to erupt during the wardrobe-revamping process, let's get this year's Best of Beauty series out of the way. I've started with skincare; stay tuned for makeup posts!

Space.NK Summer Edition Gift With Purchase Available Worldwide

Summer Cosmetopia Digest   Wednesday, May 10, 2017

Space.NK UK's Summer Edition GWP is available worldwide! The US edition of the Spring Beauty Edit was out recently, and their UK counterpart had no GWP, which made us GWP addicts more than a tad jealous.
The Summer Edition for 2017 contains 15 restorative essentials, with a total worth of over £250, to restore your skin - and makeup - in time for the warm weather. There is also an Aspinal of London card holder in misty blue kaviar. I cannot count the number of times I've drooled over Aspinal goods. 
Moreover, there are three full-sized products and 12 deluxe-sizes in here, with brand names ranging from Chantecaille to Kevyn Aucoin and Sunday Riley. The set is free when you spend £150 on site, and use the code SUMMER17. International shipping (tracked) is included. Go get yours here before they run out.

Makeup And Skincare Favourites: November 2016

Winter Cosmetopia Digest   Friday, December 02, 2016

Twenty-four days to go. Have you decorated your Christmas tree and done your shopping yet? I'm in the middle of gift-wrapping and card-writing. It looks like I'm going to be travelling soon, so I have a week or so to get everything sorted. I'm also accompanying Gramps on hospital visits - he has been diagnosed with osteo-arthritis and severe anaemia. The latter is supposed to be the side-effect of ongoing treatment for cancer.
Meanwhile, I'll tell you about the beauty products I've been loving recently.
