Bloomin' lovely!
Just as your wardrobe gets updated each season, so should your makeup collection. Investing in new hues can be an inexpensive way to stay on trend and a great excuse for a new treat!
Here are our top 5 beauty buys for the winter months.
One:
A beautiful berry lip is a must for the cooler months. Keeping eyes fresh and neutral and punching up the pout, is a classic winter look. We love Bloom lipstick in Cutie Pie for $28, which you can get here or at Myer or David Jones.
Two:
During winter, skin is not only ravaged by the office air conditioner and car heating, but also by the biting winds. We love the Jurlique Rosewater Balancing Mist from $24, to keep you moisturised and fresh. You can pick it up here or at selected David Jones and Myer stockists around town. Keep this little hydration agent in your purse anytime you need a spritz! An added bonus is that it also sets makeup.
Treat your tootsies
Three:
Neutral nails are definitely suited to summer, so ramp up the ruby shades and try OPI ‘Got the Blues for Red’ for $16.95. OPI stocks at David Jones, selected Manicurists (like ProfessioNAIL in Civic) or at a range of online stores like this one. A double coat of this stuff will keep your nails very vixen-like…
Four:
After many warm baths (hopefully with novels and candles!) skin needs a little extra soothing. We love the Sohum Crème de la Crème in Peony Roses for $29.95. Smells delightful and skin just drinks it in. If you love the Peony Rose scent (trust me…it is addictive) you can also buy the perfumette or candeleir at the Sohum online store or at selected Myer stores.
Five:
Our feet must not be forgotten in the months that we forgoe the pedicure (because it is just too cold to leave the salon in thongs!) and L’Occitane’s Shea Butter Foot Cream for $29.95 (75ml) does just the trick. Contains Lavender essential oil and refreshing mint…mmm…You can pick it up online or at one of the L’Occitane stores around town.
