Shopping My Stash #110

*productsample I've not shopped my stash since the beginning of November! I'll be doing it a lot more this year as I'm having a low-ish spend year. I'm keeping my Beauty Pie subscription for now, Feel Unique monthly samples and my bi-monthly Skin Organics Clean Beauty Box. I've got so much to use up and only one face!

I've fallen head-over-heels for Miller Harris's exquisite Tea Tonique Perfume Oil roller-ball which came in one of The Perfume Society boxes which I received at Christmas from hubby (link). This silky scented oil is a joy to use - so luxurious and one of my favourite Miller Harris scents to boot (I've also used it to tame flyaways!)

I love my tin of citrussy fresh Burt's Bees Lemon Butter Cuticle Cream which is a joy to use and that scent - totally mouthwatering! See my review HERE.

From D'Alchemy is their amazing Spectacular Hand Therapy* my dry winter hands are loving this light but rich and deliciously aromatic hand cream. See my review HERE.

I love my Hourglass mini dim light Ambient Lighting Powder which I picked up in the states last year (£5 less than here) which I use over foundation for a bit of magic glow!

My final item is Beauty Pie's Future Lipstick Luxe Shine in Dusky Rose. It's a my lips but better shade with a glossy look. I love it!

Shopping My Stash #73

Here's what I've been reaching for lately:

The Pure Colour Envy Shine lipstick is a recent purchase from Estee Lauder (shade 130 - Innocent). It's a light peachy shade which is perfect for spring & summer. It feel moisturising on the lips only drawback is it doesn't really last.

L'Artisan Mure et Musc EdT which I got from my pal Julie for my birthday along with the lush Mure et Musc Extreme Body Wash which is a real treat. It cleanses the skin leaving it lightly scented. Absolutely love!

I can't believe I haven't tried any skincare products from PHB Ethical Beauty before! I've totally fallen for the gorgeous Anti-Ageing Moisturiser with Monoi Oil & Gardenia which I picked up at Love Lula (there's 25% off this range until 30 April). It truly is one of the nicest moisturisers I've ever used and smells divine. A full review will follow.

Took me a while to buy but unsure how I lived without it! Simply loving Hourglass Ambient Lighting Powder in Dim Light. It just makes the skin look luminous and healthy.

NET-A-PORTER: The Travel Kit

I found I just couldn't resist The Travel Kit from NET-A-PORTER (£38 plus P&P). Having loved one of their previous kits - The Holiday Kit I knew I'd love it. It's jam packed full of gorgeous goodies which I'm looking forward to testing out.

This time I chose not to get the luxe packaging so my order arrived in a brown cardboard box. Inside was a branded and ribboned box (so I did get a touch of luxury). My friend Julie worked it out and the value is an incredible £192!

Here's what is inside:

There are 3 full size items and a mixture of travel sizes and sachets.

Full size:

Deborah Lippmann's Cuticle Oil 15ml (£18) - which will nourish and repair even the driest cuticles.

Lashfood Conditioning Drama Mascara - Black 8ml (£16) - makes your lashes longer and thicker. Smudge proof and long lasting.

Lipstick Queen Invisible Lip Liner 0.28g (£18) - the lipliner which co-ordinates with every shade. Create the perfect lip shape while holding colour firmly in place.

Trial sizes:

Leonor Greyl Nourishing Shampoo 50ml - repair frazzled hair and split ends with this nourishing shampoo which will strengthen and soften.

Christophe Robin Regenerating Mask 50ml - one of the ingredients in this mask is prickly pear oil, a natural source of Vitamin E and antioxidants. It will leave hair shiny and renewed.

Chantecaille Bio Lifting Cream+ 10ml - helps to smooth wrinkles and fine lines, plumping and rejuvenating the skin.

Erno Laszlo White Marble Treatment Bar 17g - a facial bar which is enriched with powerful time-release brightners and smoothing fruit acids. It cleanses, exfoliates and clarifies fighting dark spots at their source.

Erno Laszlo White Marble Radiance Emulsion 5ml - a lightweight serum which brightens and evens the skin tone. Best used in conjunction with the treatment bar.

Jurlique Rosewater Balancing Mist 15ml (huge fan so delighted to have this back in my stash!) - a refreshing and soothing mist which calms and restores balance.

Hourglass Opaque Rouge Liquid Lipstick - Icon 1g - this is perhaps not a colour I'd have picked but it feels lovely on the lips. Enriched with emolients and antioxidant vitamins which nourish. A single application will last all day.

Sachets:

2 x Mio Clean Slate Workout Swipe - ideal for freshening up after the gym or on a plane the wipes are enriched with gently exfoliating lactic acid and scented with Mint and Cucumber.

2 x Roloxin Lift Revitalising Facial Treatment - described as "facelift in a sachet".
