I have 3 FABULOUS new additions to my beauty bag to share with you today. Three very different things but all equally as wonderful. One of which is a repurchase, one because it's just oh SO PRETTY and the third purely out of curiosity to be honest. There will be quite a few of these posts coming soon as I was lucky enough to recieve a fair amount of beauty for Christmas, so once I've had chance to test it out, I will have those bits up to! But for now, let's have a nosy at the newest additions and what I thought to them!
Laura Mercier - Hydrating Foundation Primer
I recieved this Primer one of my recent subscription boxes in a sample size, I was excited to try it as I have heard some fabulous things about it. It didn't take me long until I had used the whole test tube and I knew straight away I would have to pick it up in full size (damn you subscription boxes!). There is something really magically about this primer, it is light yet super hydrating and pore-filling without looking heavy. I notice that my foundation has more of a glow to it when applied on top of this, and not only that I can honestly say it helps my make-up to last all day. I would say that the primer is perfect for anyone with dry skin, however if you have oily skin they also do an Oil-free version! Although on the more expensive side of the primer pond, I have to admitt that it really is worth the money for me, and I will happily repurchase it again.
Charlotte Tilbury - Hot Lips - SUPER CINDY
As far as lipsticks go, I really don't think that anyone can top the packaging of the Charlotte Tilbury ones. They are essentially a bloggers dream, and you will have seen my old "between the sheets* shade dotted in flatlays all over my Instagram! I decided it was about time to treat myself to a fresh, new one, not only for Instagram purposes, but because I saw this shade and fell in instant gooey love with it. Super Cindy is a lipstick inspired by the babe that is Cindy Crawford, its a taupey/pinky/nude and It's just perfect! I love the formula of the lipsticks, they are creamy and leave your lips feeling super soft, whilst being long-lasting and fuller looking! At £23.00 each they are obviously pricey for a lipstick, but I see it as more of a collectors thing than anything. Get your Super Cindy here or check out the full collection of the Hot Lips range here.
Zoeva Concealer Spectrum Palette
This 9 shade colour correction palette was one of those eff-it purchases that I popped into my Beauty Bay basket after one to many wines one Friday night, I didn't really need it, and wasn't really sure why I wanted it, but something about it sucked me in. Hook. Line, Sinker.
The 9 shadecolour correcting and concealing paltette has warm shades, cool shades to suit all skin tones, all in a high coverage, creamy and blendable formula. So far, I have actually been loving it a lot more than expected! This isn't a product to use if you are in a rush, I have been playing around with it when I've had a bit more time on my hands. I have been using the cool pink shade under my eyes to cover dark circles, the yellow tone down the centre of my nose to brighten and the darkest shades to add some contour! I'm not sure if those are the correct uses, but it has been working well for me, and I can't wait to play around with it a little more! Plus at only £18.00 I think it is a really good buy for anyone who wants to have a play around with colour correcting! Pick it up here.
I am FOREVER on the look out for new beauty, skincare and make up to try out, so if you have any suggestions please feel to leave a comment below!

That Charlotte Tilbury lipstick is gorgeous - I love the shade! I received the Laura Mercier primer once in a subscription box as well and I liked it, but never purchased the full size. Maybe one day! Lovely buys. x

I've finished reading this post wanting all three of these products! I've never had a CT lipstick but have been wanting one for a while and the colour of this one is just gorgeous! And the primer sounds amazing and I've always wondered about that concelear palette. *sigh* I may have to make a sneaky order, you're a bad influence 😂

Super Cindy looks like such a nice shade! I've got the Kim K.W shade and the Secret Salma shade and I think they're both really gorgeous as well.

It was a Laura Mercier primer that first convinced me that primers can actually do something and aren't just a step that you might as well skip. My most recent purchase was a perfume set in the sale at Boots. I had a sniff of Stella McCartney Pop and fell in love so it came home with me x
