Beauty Pick of the Week

My beauty pick of the week this week is my latest nail polish purchase, a very pretty Essie shade called “Lady Like”. Lady Like is an elegant soft mauve and is perfect for all seasons, it looks amazing with strong bright colours, like magenta and teal which are trending this winter, as well as with summery whites or natural colours. It is a wonderfully feminine colour and a bit of a change from the bolder colours that I have been wearing on my nails lately.

Beautiful Earth Fathers Day Giveaway

This week I am very excited to be reviewing two more products from the Beautiful Earth range. Well actually my hubby is using them but I am sharing about them as they are from their men’s range. Beautiful Earth, as I have mentioned previously, is a specialist manufacturing company, distributing 100% natural products for personal care, to individual consumers and the hospitality industry.

The two products are both After Shave Balms and along with amazing soothing properties they are moisturising and nourishing for the skin, which is perfect post shaving.

SPEARMINT AFTERSHAVE BALM

This light lotion moisturises and shields skin from the negative effects of shaving. It contains Shea Butter, Grapeseed and Macadamia Nut oil and vitamin A and E to moisturise, for skin that looks and feels its natural best. Spearmint and Lemon oils have a fresh soft fragrance. Lemon essential oil will help to minimise skin irritation from shaving. This non-greasy anti-aging moisturiser absorbs quickly leaving your skin hydrated, calm and nourished.

This balm has a lovely invigorating smell and leaves my skin feeling fresh and moisturised after use – Grant Rossiter

ORANGE AFTERSHAVE BALM

This light lotion moisturises and shields skin from the negative effects of shaving. It contains Shea Butter, Grapeseed and Macadamia Nut oil and vitamin A and E to moisturise, for skin that looks and feels its natural best. Fresh citrus oils of Sweet Orange are blended in the warm, spicy depth of Patchouli and Frankincense oils for a crisp, woodsy scent. Your skin will smell as good as it feels. Frankincense essential oil will help to minimise the fine lines and Rose gives your skin an even texture. This non-greasy anti-aging moisturiser absorbs quickly and gives you a healthier more youthful appearance.

The Orange aftershave balm has a more subtle fragrance than the Spearmint balm but still leaves your skin feeling soothed and moisturised after shaving ~ Grant Rossiter

Beauty Pick of the Week

 

This week my beauty pick of the week comes from Revlon. I am really enjoying the amazing jewel tones that are trending in both beauty and fashion this season, think luxurious tones like amethyst, sapphire, emerald, ruby and garnet.

I recently came across the Revlon Luxurious Colour, Diamond Lust Eye Shadows which are stunning, perfect for that extra touch of sparkle and drama. The high sparkle shadows have a silky, luxurious texture. My favourites from the colour palette is a gorgeous sparkling midnight blue, called Neptune Star and a pretty almost violet shade called Plum Galaxy.

For a bit of added drama try Maybelline Master Precise Liquid Eyeliner, which I have just received in my June rubybox – it is awesome!

My June rubybox

Hey beautiful ladies my June rubybox arrived yesterday, I have been having a few challenging days so it was a welcome surprise, filled with gorgeous glam goodies! Here is what was inside:

  • Calvin Klein Forbidden Euphoria – A gorgeous sexy floral fragrance, it reminds me of summer flowers! A perfect size for your handbag too, for when you need to smell sexy in a hurry!
  •  Maybelline Master Precise Liquid Eyeliner – perfect for creating that sexy, very trendy “cats-eye”. I love Maybelline and I have been looking for a great liquid liner so this is perfect.

  • Piz Buin In Sun Sun Lipstick SPF 20 – I ma super fussy when it comes to lip ice and I must admit this is a great one, I have not used it before but I am sure it will be in my shopping basket in the future. It is also perfect for sunny days or if you exercise outdoors because it has a SPF 20.

  • Prevage Hydrating Fluid – This is also a brand I have not tried before but have heard many wonderful things about. Again this is a perfect product especially for winter, as your skin becomes lack lustre and in need of moisture. It promises to be super rehydrating and it contains Idebenone, a powerful antioxidant.

Well that was my June rubybox, I hope you enjoy yours as much as I have mine. If you would like to find out more about ordering your own rubybox click onto their website here
