I am so excited to tell you about this month’s favourite products because it’s also a sneaky preview of what’s to come over the next few weeks that I can’t wait to get started. As some of you will know, I travel quite a bit and this month already I have spent about two weeks in England and now I am back in Europe again, but this time for quite a bit longer. Because of this, I have decided that from March I will be starting a “Best of British” series where I highlight some of my new favourite British beauty brands as well as review new products from ones I have used and loved for years.

So to get started, I will give you a very brief introduction to each product I have been loving lately but don’t worry – you will be hearing much more from all of these brands over the coming weeks.

My love of hoarding can only be matched by my love of purging and while that might not make sense, it allows me to maintain a manageable quantity of skincare products where I get to try new things, have backups but I’m also using stuff up and not letting things just sit there going to waste. I love posting about my monthly empties as it’s a great way to keep track of (and also celebrate) the highly satisfying experience of using up a product all the way to the end. This month, for some reason, I don’t have that many empties but I suppose I had so many the last couple of months, it has sort of balanced itself out. Anyway, here’s a look at the products I finished up in July. Continue reading
