I've got to start with a long time favourite of mine; the Magic Foundation*. If you've been reading my blog since 2015 then you would have spotted this offering along the way. I got sent the 02 shade this time and it matches my skin like a dream meaning I've finally rekindled the love for this demi-matte, medium coverage foundation. It's natural looking, yet conceals my redness and blemishes where needed and goes perfectly paired with Charlotte Tilbury's new release, the Magic Away Concealer*.
This concealer has been on my wishlist ever since I spotted it on somebody's favourite post on YouTube and I've been refreshing Cult Beauty like mad and it's finally arrived! I'm not sure what I was expecting, but it's even better. It's a medium to full coverage and really brightens up my under eye. I wasn't sure if I'd like the sponge and although I've got hesitations about hygiene, it is good for getting in the inner corner and sides of my nose. The formula is easy to blend with my Beauty Blender* and it looks smooth all day long without creasing. I feel like this could be a cult favourite among many in the weeks to come and I'm sure you'll be hearing a lot about it.
Just like the magic foundation, the Dolce Vita Palette has been a favourite for many years around here and is one that I always bring out at this time of the year. I've never been able to justify getting the Vintage Vamp Quad* because I have many other palettes to use up, but I can't believe I never did and it's seriously amazing. The two dark plumy shades are absolutely dreamy and create a very Autumnal smokey eye in other a couple of sweeps. The two shimmering, lighter shades are divine too and I think that this will be a staple come Christmas too.
Next up is the Pretty Youth Glow Filter*, a cream to powder duo that features a pretty pink blusher and champagne highlighter. At first I've got to admit I was disappointed as the pigmentation isn't great on the highlighter and the blusher lacked the oomph I was looking for. I started to work the blusher more into my skin and found a way to make it work with a beauty sponge, but if you're looking for a striking highlighter then this won't be for you as it doesn't show up on the skin all that well at all.
To end this post on more of a positive note, I had high hopes for the Goddess SkinClay Mask* and I'm so glad it's lived up to it's expectations as it really makes my skin feel super soft and smooth. For a ten minute mask this really is a quick fix and is a good option for when I want an all rounder mask that will make my skin glow and tighten the pores too.
