It’s a super exciting day today.
Jane Cunningham, aka British Beauty Blogger is launching her first skincare product. And it sounds brilliant. Japanese Cleansing Cloud is a cloud-shaped solid balm bar (£12) that she describes as the tipping point between a cleansing oil and a soft solid balm soap. It can be used ‘everywhere’, from the hands to face to body. (more…)
I’ve just done a KonMari fragrance sweep and given a load of hardly-used perfumes to my sister and her friends. Her favourite? An Urban Outfitters eau de parfum called Citron Glacé. I feel her joy; I’ve also kept my Urban Outfitters Macaron Rosé, a light burnt caramel gourmand that was a steal at £15 for 30ml. (I think they might be out of stock or discontinued).
Last week, Jane at British Beauty Blogger posted some pictures of a new high street fragrance line (above) with very chic packaging reminiscent of last year’s Chanel Les Eaux de Chanel bottles. We had to guess the brand and I was thinking along the lines of & Other Stories. (more…)
On October 25th, 300 people queued around the block of Liberty’s department store before 8.30am. Not for a new i-gadget, or a half price techy telly, or even a celebrity collaboration. No, they queued for make-up. Or more specifically, for the privilege of buying a £175 box of beauty products, albeit worth over £500.
Welcome to the frenzied, hype-commerce world of beauty advent calendars. A business that’s been booming for the last couple of years and is still growing (according to Google trends). (more…)
Thank you British Beauty Blogger (aka my ‘oracle’) for the heads up on Clinique Take The Day Off Eye Makeup Remover Stick (£16). File under ‘why has no-one thought of it before’, this is a faff-free eye make-up remover in stick form.
I’m so bored of decanting eye make-up remover into one of those mini Muji bottles every time I travel, because I don’t want to lug a giant bottle around with me. This would be the perfect travel companion. I can’t vouch for its efficacy (it launches 22nd July in the UK, although it’s already available in the US at Sephora and Nordstrom) but if it works, I’m a convert.
