Tweet It’s bonus time again! Estee Lauder have a rather bright summery Gift With Purchase set on offer at good old Boots with a selection of skincare and make up products. I love it when Boots gets the good GWP’s in because it’s a chance to collect bonus points too! Here is the set; The details;
Tweet I have recently been doing a foundation audit and the amount of bases I have is RIDICULOUS. But I can’t help it…whilst I definitely have some loves (and they are nearly always the pricey ones) I don’t have one Holy Grail foundation that I prize over others because my skin changes, the season changes, my needs change. On this basis, I think it’s totally fair that these three Estee Lauder foundations have entered my life: Estee Lauder foundations are {Read More}
Tweet Released as a Limited Edition Lipstick earlier this year, Estee Lauder’s Pure Colour Sheer Matte Lipstick came in four shades and in a long slender tube, housing a lipstick of contraditions; it is both matte and sheer. Usually Sheer lipsticks are glossy, Matte lipsticks are full coverage. Does sheer and matte actually work? Here is the pretty lipstick! I have the shade Rebel which is a pretty slightly frosty medium pink. They say: Lightweight creamy lipstick with a {Read More}
Tweet Spring make up collections tend to be somewhat pastel based and shimmery; this is fine if you like pastel based and shimmer but sometimes these colours can feel quite – to quite my 12 year old cousin – blah. My first thoughts when seeing the Estée Lauder Pretty Naughty Five Colour Eyeshadow Palette was not ‘blah’, rather ‘eh?’. The limited edition palette from Estée Lauder from the ‘Pretty Naughty’ collection is very playful but also quite unusual in its compilation… Here {Read More}
Tweet Do you watch Mad Men? I will confess that I have only ever seen one episode, but my colleague used to go on and on and on about how amazing the series is (he was a self styled Don Draper too). Even if you don’t watch the series I am sure you will have seen the very glam ladies of the show. So, Estée Lauder’s second collection in partnership with Mad Men featuring 3 Limited Edition products is very tempting! {Read More}
Tweet I was a huge gel eyeliner fan. And then I wasn’t as keen because I could never get through a pot before it started to go crumbly, and then, it seemed like a lot of work having to grab a brush to apply when I could just use a really soft pencil. Nevertheless, I am one for bright, colourful gel eyeliners. Estee Lauder Double Wear Gel Eyeliner comes n 5 colours including two eye-catching hues, in Extreme Emerald and {Read More}
Tweet For as long as I can remember, I have always loved cream eyeshadows. Whilst other protested, ‘But they crease!’, I would say, ‘It’s totally worthhh itttt!”. Japanese cream or jelly eyeshadows, in my experience are the best at being none crease, but, as pretty and sparkly as they are, they lack pigment. Shiseido’s Hydro Power is probably one of the first creamy eyeshadows I thought had decent pigment and iron proof wear time. Enter Estee Lauder’s new offering, the {Read More}
Tweet On counters from the 28th December are these Estee Lauder Pure Colour Stay On Shadow Paints. As a cream eyeshadow fan I am excited! Here is a preliminary look at the colours: Extreme Emerald and Bold Cobalt (not pictured) are Limited Edition. These eyeshadows can be used to create a soft wash of watercolour or can be built up to create a stronger look that lasts all day. Their Sumptuous Extreme Lash Multiplying Volume Mascara (£22) and Double Wear {Read More}
