Bobbi Brown Intensive Skin Serum Corrector and Concealer

Hiding dark circles under your eyes can be tough at any time but especially after a 25 hour flight home. I’d like to say I still look relaxed and fresh from my recent vacation to Turkey but today I definitely needed some extra help! Enter the new Bobbi Brown Intensive Skin Serum Corrector and Concealer.

The Bobbi Brown Intensive Skin Serum Corrector is a colour corrector that works to brighten under-eye darkness and re-energise skin to look rejuvenated and fresh. It also primes the area under the eye before applying concealer.

The Bobbi Brown Intensive Skin Serum Concealer then works to lighten, brighten and even out skin tone under the eyes. It is formulated to minimise signs of ageing, excess pigmentation and irritation. Leaving the eyes looking fresher, brighter, and more rejuvenated.

I have to admit, it must’ve worked, because all I’ve been told is how great I look after my break. No one would even know I’ve had barely any sleep! To shop the new Bobbi Brown Intensive Skin Serum Corrector and Concealer for yourself visit the Bobbi Brown website here.

Marc Jacobs Mod Noir

Fashion designer Marc Jacobs has launched a new fragrance, Mod Noir. Of all the Marc Jacobs fragrances what draws me to Mod Noir is the beautiful scent of gardenias – which were the blooms that were the base of his first fragrance with LVMH almost a decade ago.

The fragrance has fresh green top notes, a heart of gardenia and a dry down of creamy musks and comes encased in a striking black and white striped bottle – the same signature colours of beauty giant Sephora, where it will be available to purchase exclusively, both in Australia and Internationally.

My love for the Bobbi Brown Shimmer Brick continues with the launch of this limited edition version in Sunset Pink. It’s the perfect shade for an instant pick-me-up that warms your complexion. Superfine pure pearl pigments reflect radiance and light, creating an all-over sun-touched look.

Perfect if you haven’t actually seen the sun for a couple of months and want to fake that sun kissed glow in a limited amount of time. This is one beauty essential I’ll definitely be taking with me to Turkey next week! Shop the Bobbi Brown Shimmer Brick in Sunset Pink here.

John Frieda Frizz Ease Miraculous Recovery Repairing Shampoo and Conditioner

All hair can benefit from a little love now and again. Especially my sad, limp blonde locks which have been subjected to the frigid winter air and become something more alike to a bundle of dry, brittle, split-ended sticks, rather than my desired bouncy mermaid locks. That is why I have been in desperate need of additional hydration (damage repair) of late.

For the last few weeks I’ve swapped my regular Shampoo and Conditioner for the John Frieda Frizz Ease Miraculous Recovery Repairing Shampoo and Conditioner as well as the John Frieda Frizz Ease Miraculous Recovery Masque; a weekly hair mask designed to help protect against breakage. The best thing about the Masque? Unlike others on the market you only have to leave it on for three to five minutes to see results.

After just a few weeks my hair feels thicker, looks glossier and has a bit more weight to it than before. And whether due to these treatments or the weather, static and frizz have definitely disappeared! Shop these John Frieda Products for yourself here.

As my Turkey vacation draws near, I’m on the look out for anything that’s going to help me pack fast and pack light, as well as make me feel and look a little better when my flight comes to an end. Thats where the new compact Mecca Cosmetica Jet Setter Kit comes in. It ticks all the above boxes and beyond. It’s functional, flight-friendly and packed with the all the beauty essentials you need.

Inside the chic, clear beauty bag is a smoothing primer, SPF 25+ lip balm, make-up remover, wash cloth, SPF 30+ sunscreen as well as a tube of eye brightener. Which will certainly be necessary after a 25+ hour flight, that’s for sure!

It’s available for a limited time only, so if it’s something you’ll need in the near future, I’d snap one up asap here. Or if you have any which you can recommend to me, be sure to let me know!
