Urban Decay Eyeshadow Primer Anti Ageing Potion €23How the heck can an eyeshadow primer be anti-ageing? Well, any good primer is halfway there already by making sure eyeshadow doesn’t crease or settle into lines. Urban Decay have given this version of its famous primer added value with blurring and smoothing ingredients that help to make eyes look fresher and firm up the dreaded “crepe” effect.
Dove Pure Care Dry Oil €14.99I finally got all the ratty ends of balayage cut out of my hair, but it was a long journey. I survived it with the help of what seemed like buckets of intensive conditioner and oils, including this one. Use it on damp hair before blow-drying or on dry ends to calm down frizz.
Nuxe Splendieuse Anti Dark Spot Cream SPF20 €30A delicious-smelling moisturiser that brightens skin tone and reduces the look of age spots with the help of Vitamin C and plant extracts. The SPF is a bonus.
Essence Liquid Lipstick €2.49These highly pigmented lip gloss-style colours have a sweet vanilla scent. They are slightly sticky but give great colour pay-off for the price. Tip: lightly line your lips before you use any liquid lipstick, as the colour has a tendency to bleed.
Maison Martin Margiela Replica Flower Market €95The collection of Replica scents evokes memories of periods in time, and this one is designed to transport you to a flower market in Paris with a floral accord of rose, tuberose and jasmine. This fragrance is less sweet and more crisp, but if you are a fan of Viktor and Rolf Flowerbomb you will probably like this too. Plus, the packaging is great.
Smashbox Try it Kit Bestsellers €22
A great way to try out a quad of Smashbox best-sellers, including a mini version of its famous primer, Full Exposure mascara, Photo Op eyeshadow trio and Legendary lip gloss.
