I was browsing the net when I found a very cute looking website called Lilly Loves, that sells pretty stationary and a intriguing looking range called Aura Cosmetics.

The six goodies I got are here:

I was intrigued by the retro 50s pin up style of the packaging and the look of the products. It very much reminds me of Benefit – the cute boxes, the unusual multi tasking products.

Bronzed Shimmering Sun £15.00

This was very easy to use and didn’t look streaky at all (Tip – use a fan brush!).

Apple Blossom Blusher:

My first opinion of Aura Cosmetics is positive – it really reminds me of Benefit but with a slightly more sensible edge. It’s a range that’s nice to give as a gift because the packaging is so cute!

Everything also seems to work well – I am especially fond of the Bean Face Tint which adds a bronzed glow and the Fruity Blusher, which is a more more sheer when applied.

I am going to incorporate these products with my usual cosmetic routine and see how it fits in. It’s a really cute and little heard of brand so I do recommend popping over here and checking it out for yourself!
