A round up of relevant new beauty products.
NIP+FAB Sheer Makeup Fix – £15.95
We’ve heard a fair bit about blemish balms but had never bothered to try them. Now we have, we’re addicted! This multi tasking cream from NIP+FAB can be worn on top of your usual moisturiser or under make up as a primer. It really does help smooth the complexion and keep your foundation on all day. Usually we have to touch up the make up while we’re in the office but wearing this, even when we get home in the evening, most of the make up is sill there. A great buy. And because it’s clear, all skin tones can wear it. Fans include Kim Kardashian and Victoria Beckham.
Laboratoires Filorga MESO-C – £60.50
This 21 day multi vitamin intense treatment delivers a strong dose of Vitamin C to the skin to get rid of signs of tiredness, patchy skin and fine wrinkles. Mid use you wonder what you’re doing, keeping it in the fridge and all, but at the end of the 21 days, your face really does look a lot fresher. It’s not cheap but you look really good afterwards!
L’Occitane Limited Edition Shea Butter Range
For over 30 years, L’Occitane has worked closely with the women who make shea butter in Burkina Faso where they buy directly from them at a fair price, ensuring they earn enough to take care of their families. Their new Limited Edition Shea Butter packaging was inspired by the Bogolan cloths worn in West Africa and by the natural scents of the region. We tried the Shea Butter Ultra Rich Body Cream with its new scent and, as you’d expect from L’Occitane, it was lovely.

I tend to get very dry eyes so a quick squirt of optrex spray does the trick for me.
