My Beauty go-to’s during NZFW
These are the products that got me through the week!
1. Batiste Dry Shampoo:
One of my can’t live without products. This bad boy gives me volume plus hides any regrowth, such a god-send between salon visits.
2. Mario Badescu Rose Water Facial spray:
A spritz of this between shows was oh so refreshing and insured my skin stayed hydrated and dewy. Such a great size to keep in your handbag and super cheap!
3. Estee Lauder Advanced Night Repair Recovery Mask:
I prepped my skin with this ultra-luxe mask the night before my first day at NZFW, such a treat! This mask helped my makeup go on so much smoother the next morning and gave my skin a gorgeous glow.
4. Beauty Dust Me everyday brush:
This is a really great brush, plus the packaging is sooo pretty! I’ve been using a tangle teaser for the last 2 years but this brush is my new go-to, it really stimulates circulation while you brush for healthier hair. Plus tames all my flyaway’s a lot better than the tangle teaser, really wish I had picked up one of these sooner!
5. Silk beauty sleep mask:
Have been wanting to purchase one of these for the longest time! Was so exhausted after NZFW and this really helped me sleep deeper! So great if your room isn’t dark enough and the best thing about this mask is that it protects your delicate eye area from those pesky eye creases you get when you wake up in the morning!
6. Osmosis Pressed Powder:
One of my cant-live-without products! I have been using this pressed powder for 7 years now! Its seriously the best mineral powder and I believe one of the reasons my skin has stayed so good over the years. I don’t like to wear foundation everyday as it feels so heavy on my skin and I feel like it can be very aging. This powder is is all natural so I know its good for my skin. It has great coverage and an added sunblock. Plus the compact lasts for ages!
7. Essie Nail Lacquer in ‘Sand tropez’:
My favourite nude nail colour, a must for Fashion Week as it goes with any outfit. I always get so many compliments when wearing this!
8. Becca Cosmetics Concealer:
My favourite high coverage concealer. Instantly cancels out my dark circles, a must have product for tired Mommy eyes! I just gently pat into skin, then lightly buff out with my Real Techniques setting brush.
9. Lanolips Superbalm:
The best and prettiest lip balm for instantly hydrating dry lips, plus it gives the lips a gorgeous sheen. Often I will just line and fill my lips with a nude lip liner then generously apply this over top for a natural, glossy look.
