@cultbeauty 2022 advent calendar

In a sea of pessism and doom everyone needs a little sparkle and shine, so if you can afford the price tag it won’t disappoint.

Having bought this one for years I know first-hand how packed with party-tastic, skin-saving, glamour goodies it is. No need to ‘un box’ this one, the excitement is the 25 days of beauty discovery.

Yes it’s £200 plus but it also contains 37 products, many full size, worth over £1000 so it’s really a beauty steal.

From glow, to glimmer to ready-set-party it looks like it has everything I’ll need this festive season to party in style.

Top tip : perhaps drop a hint to your partner to treat you instead #becauseyoureworthit

But suspect it won’t stop me squirreling away a few more…if you’re on a budget or like more than one beauty advent [like me…] try :

Fall for Fall ; a lipstick for all seasons & “Season Lip Anxiety” sufferers!

Fall for Fall ; a lipstick for all seasons

RatingI take it all back I’m just not ready for BERRY yet in fact I’ll confess I’m “seasonally confused”.  I’m not quite ready to switch to full knitwear, I’m still in some t-shirts but I have put my heating on twice now (shh don’t tell).  So what to wear ; on your lips. 

Inside scoop ; If you’re suffering from Seasonal Lip Anxiety SLA : ok yes you got me I DID just make that up…can I recommend middle of the road.  In colour terms.  Don’t go full on Berry Bold : do park the pink & bin the beige : settle for ‘neutral’…DON’T skimp on the texture…

Flawless Friday it’s as easy as 1-2-G for GLOW gorgeous skin

Rating ; G stands for GLOW : glow getter, look BETTER. Friday’s top pre-weekend tip is a light dusting of my favourite super-fine ‘finishing powder’ from those clever folks at bareminerals.

So glowing skin at any age as is as easy as brush – swish – finish ; READ MORE  >>>

Berry Berry nice ; I’m head over Autumn leaves in love with BERRY blush

RatingBerry Berry nice ; So following on from my berry nice lipstick post yesterday from the feedback I’m sensing we’re liking the juicy-theme which is great!  So if you’re going all-in for plum like me I’d recommend teaming your berry lips WITH a berry blush ; but going a little lighter on the rest.

Wicked Wednesday ; how Berry nice to meet you

Inside scoop ; No need to give the apple to the teacher, wear this seasons blushing berry deep red  hues on the apples of your cheeks as well, for the perfect ‘just-in-from-the-cold cheek’ blush. As I move into my Autumn / Winter wardrobe (actually did I ever STOP wearing boots – nope!) I reckon berry blush looks amazing with black, teal or any of the latest must wear Fall shades.

 

So how to wear and which one choose…? Read more
