This Week I've Been Wearing... #14.

Liz Earle Lash Definition mascara; Bumble and Bumble Quenching Shampoo; Zelens Radiance Luminous Face Cleanser; Chantecaille Eye Shadow;  Guerlain Parure Le Lumiere foundation; Clinique Chubby Sticks Intense in Plushest Punch.

This week has possibly been the fastest in history, between some time at home, my birthday, mine & Jordan's anniversary and Christmas Eve, I've really not had time to think about anything! There have been some new products I've been picking up a lot recently, and a few of them have made it in to this weeks most worn.

The Liz Earle makeup is on par with their skincare, I've tried a few pieces from the new line and everything has left me wanting more. I won't lie, it's taken a lot for me to leave my Clinique mascara but this Liz Earle Lash Definition mascara is everything I want, it's great for opening my eyes without leaving them looking too defined. Usually for daytime I just want my eyes looking open and bright and this is exactly what this achieves (no clumpy lashes, smudged waterline or racoon-eyes!).
Another eye product I can't put down is Chantecaille eye shadow in Sel, it's a shimmery taupe that reminds me of a cooler MAC All That Glitters. I've worn this almost every day as of late, it's quite a casual colour but I wear it during the day and build it up for night for the perfect festive sparkle. After a long time searching, I've named this my winter eye colour.

My hair has been so dry recently, almost static because of styling tools and central heating - to combat this I've been using the Bumble and Bumble Quenching Shampoo, it gives my hair a good clean and I've been finding that it's more moisturised and there's a lot less flyaways. My hair feels really refreshed afterwards, too. I'm enjoying wearing my hair sleek and straight now that I have a fringe and this is keeping it looking glossy and healthy. Bumble hair products are my favourites!

This Zelens Radiance Luminous Face Cleanser is the latest purchase in my mission to find radiant skin - it's quite a milky cleanser and it lathers up to form a slightly foamy face wash. I love any cleanser that aims to remove makeup and impurities and smooth and hydrate my skin, so this multi-action wash is a dream for me. I'm hoping over time this will leave my skin looking healthy and bright.

I've been opting for this Guerlain Parure Le Lumiere foundation lately, I like to switch up my foundation a lot and I heard Guerlain foundations were pretty special. I like this as it's not too heavy, instead giving a sheer but glowing finish but still covering imperfections. I seem to be continuously opting for fresh, radiant skin at the moment and this base is answering all my healthy-skinned prayers. It's particularly moisturising and has become my winter foundation.
Lastly, my most worn lip colour is the new Clinique Chubby Sticks Intense in Plushest Punch. I loved the original Chubby Sticks but the more pigmented, 'Intense' sticks are even more gorgeous. Not for the faint-hearted, these bad boys really pack some colour! They're really moisturising and my dry lips adore them. They're so wearable and perfect for when you're feeling daring, I can't wait to try more from the range. I've been wearing this beautiful bright pink with smokey eyes on nights out, it really adds to outfits and pulls looks together.

Some gems have been picked out of my stash this week, what products are taking your fancy lately?

This Week I've Been Wearing... #13.

Origins Zero Oil Cleanser;  Aesop Camomile Concentrate Anti-Blemish Mask; NUXE Huile Prodigieuse Multi-Use Dry Oil; MAC Fleur Power blush; NARS New Lover Velvet Gloss pencil *

After last weeks makeup-free week I thought I had better get my act together, until I realised that I've been reaching for the same old products day in and day out for the last few weeks! Well, if it ain't broke…

My skin has been breaking out recently so I've gone back to my trusty routine to banish these blemishes! 

First up, I repurchased my no-nonsense cleanser, Origins Zero Oil. At even a hint of a misbehaving skin this comes out and my skin is left purified and thoroughly cleansed. I ran out of this a couple of months back and thought my recent breakout could be due to withdrawal. After a few uses, my skin is on the road to recovery! The best thing about the cleanser compared to others I've tried is that it in no way leaves my skin feeling tight or stripped. 

Next up, one mask that always helps to sort out those hideous under the skin spots is the Aesop Camomile Concentrate Anti-Blemish Mask, it really soothes and reduces redness and swelling. At the first sign of a sore lump, I leave this on for 10 minutes (or overnight) and after a few days it's usually considerably smaller. 

Another product I've been relying on completely in this harsh weather is the NUXE Huile Prodigieuse, it's a multi-use dry oil and something I always reach for post-shower. I use it in my hair, massage some in to my face and also use it on the dry areas on the tops of my arms. It makes my skin feel oh-so-amazing and I don't think a day has gone by recently where I haven't used it! 

I've been keeping makeup minimal recently but two products I've dug out to wear lately are MAC Fleur Power blush and NARS New Lover Velvet Gloss pencil. Fleur Power was one of my first MAC blushers and I still wear it often. It's become a winter wonder recently, perking up my complexion and leaving my skin looking flushed and healthy. When the weather outside is sub-zero, extra measures must be taken to ensure we're not all washed-out Wendy's! 

NARS New Lover is a new product I've fallen for recently, it's something I probably wouldn't have thought to pick up, these Velvet Gloss pencils (despite owning a few of the Velvet Matte pencils) but oh sweet heavens, I've fallen and fallen hard. These glossy yet pigmented, shimmery yet lightweight pencils give a glossy finish with a load of colour. New Lover is especially pretty, a strawberry pink with a gold shimmer throughout (yep, it's a beaut!) and it's been gracing my lips most days recently - something tells me this might be a smaller size from the ones you buy, although I'm not completely sure. 

So there we have it, and the moral here is; when in doubt - stick to what you know. What are your thoughts on this weeks picks?

This Week I've Been Wearing... #12.

L'Oreal Mythic Oil; KMS Hair Play Moulding Paste; Origins A Perfect World Antioxidant Moisturiser;  This Works Perfect Look Skin Miracle; Jo Malone Pomegranate Noir Body Creme.

It's been a pretty makeup-free week lately, mainly due to being busy, ill and not really feeling it was necessary. I also like to give my skin a bit of a break sometimes and after a few days sans makeup, my skin looking clearer and healthier than ever. Hoorahh. 

My hair has been the main concern as of late, it needs a cut but I haven't found the time to hunt down a new hairdresser. My hair is looking slightly lifeless so I've taken to using two of my all-time favourite products to inject a bit of body and shine into my locks. The first product is the L'Oreal Mythic Oil, a lightweight hair oil that smells gorgeous. I find this a lot lighter and easier to use than other oils (I find most to be quite rich and heavy), I apply a pump or two to towel dried hair to smooth and control frizz. The ends of my hair absorb this quickly and I can brush through my hair easier without damaging it and it looks so much smoother for longer between washes. 

For volume and texture, which flat my hair requires constantly, I swear by this KMS Hair Play Moulding Paste. I rub a small amount in the palms of the hands before applying through the roots and mid lengths of my damp hair. I find this is one of the only products that gives my hair texture without leaving it feeling sticky and dirty. It's a great product for fine-hair girls or those who wash their hair every day and need a little bit of that grit that comes with sexy, undone, day-old hair. 

I've been using a new Origins product lately, A Perfect World Antioxidant Moisturiser. I use this as a day cream and recently I've been reaching for it most days. I think Origins products are some of the best I've found, this particular moisturiser helps to seal moisture in the skin and creates a barrier to protect. My skin has been suffering recently with the cold weather and this is really helping to restore what's being lost. It's more nourishing than most of the creams I have and I find it's a better base for my skin in the winter, my foundation applies better and doesn't feel caked or tight throughout the day. 

For lazy days, the This Works Perfect Look Skin Miracle is a primer and tinted moisturiser in one that I've been a fan of recently. I wasn't overly keen on this at first but I've found it can give you a really flawless base. The tint covers imperfections and redness and the smoothing action means skin looks a lot more refined. I use this alone or under foundation or BB cream for a base that hides all. 

Lastly, a recent addition to my scents collection is this Jo Malone Pomegranate Noir Body Creme. It's quite scented so I use it as a perfume, dotting it on to my wrists. This is just a sample size but I love the scent. I think it's a bit strong (not to mention pricey for a full size) to slather it all over yourself like you would your average body cream but I think it's perfect for a bit of a long lasting fragrance. 

I promise next week I shall be a little more experimental with my makeup as it's all been skincare and haircare this week! What do you think of my favourite products?

This Week I've Been Wearing... #10.

NUDE Purifying Cleansing Wash; Bumble and Bumble Brilliantime; Liz Earle Signature Foundation; L'Oreal Rouge Caresse; MACs Groundwork paintpot; L'Oreal Super Liner Perfect Slim.

I've had a switch around of my hair, makeup and skincare recently and found some real winners in amongst my stash!

You've probably heard me banging on about my favourite skincare product at the moment - the NUDE Miracle Mask (review here), it's changed my skin so much that I had to pick up this NUDE Purifying Cleansing Wash (a real bargain too, I reckon!). NUDE are quickly becoming my favourite skincare brand and I can't tell you how much I love this cleanser - it makes such a difference to my skin as well as removing all my makeup. It's great for combination skin types as it refines skin and makes it feel so smooth and soft. If there's one thing you should pick up, it's the NUDE Miracle Mask or this Purifying Cleanser.

My hair is in desperate need of a restyle, I'm getting bored of it and I'm not sure how to wear it. This Bumble and Bumble Brilliantime is a product that gives it a sexy, sultry "slept in" look but also adding a lovely shine to it. You only need a small amount, I run a blob through towel dried hair before blow-drying, it doesn't have huge affects, but leaves a sort of subtle, shiny but effortlessly messy look to your hair. It's fast becoming one of my most used products for my locks.

I've been giving this Liz Earle Signature Foundation a whirl recently, I got the shade Ivory which is perfect for me, a fair yellowed toned shade. This is really lightweight but provides great coverage, all imperfections are blurred and skin looks flawless. I'm really impressed with the wear and finish, and it's buildable too (although I'd put it at medium but natural coverage).

Next up, I finally, finally got my hands on the L'Oreal Rouge Caresse in Dating Coral - I've been after this one for some time now and I love the shade just as much as I thought I would. It's lovely and glossy - great for those with dry lips and the colour is bright. I absolutely love these and I really recommend picking a few up.

Lastly, I've got two eye products which have worked their way into my most used stash of late. The first is MACs Groundwork paintpot, a nice rich caramel brown with just a hint of shimmer. I wasn't expecting to like this at first as it doesn't look too exciting in the pot, but as it happens it's one of my favourite products. Sweep it over lids and a little under the lower lash line to make eyes pop!
I've been giving eyeliner a whirl lately and I must say, I'm really impressed with this L'Oreal Super Liner Perfect Slim, it's perfect for doing winged eyeliner and getting a really accurate line. I used it in my 60s Makeup Tutorial video with ASOS, so have a look to see how I did it.

I'm really impressed with this weeks picks, I'll definitely be getting more from NUDE and I'm even thinking about wearing eyeliner more - whoa! What are your thoughts?

This Week I've Been Wearing... #9.

Alterna Caviar Volume Creme; Estee Lauder Advanced Night Repair; NUDE Treatment Oil; Paco Rabanne Lady Million; Stila In The Light palette

Ooh I've been rummaging through my baskets and drawers this week, I'm not sure how so many of my favourite products end up at the bottom of my stash! I've been all about big hair, fresh skin and bold eyes lately...

First up, I have a new hair product in my life - the Alterna Caviar Volume Creme. Who doesn't want full volumed hair? This has become a staple in my haircare routine lately, it's easy to apply (just a simple sweep through the roots of towel-dried hair) and doesn't leave any residue, just big, sexy hair!
It's free of any nasties and doesn't dirty hair so it's an absolute winner in my eyes!

I somehow forgot about this Estee Lauder Advanced Night Repair serum, with so many lotions and potions to try I often get so caught up with favourite products that I forget about old loves. Nevermind, this serum has showed its true colours this week and I've fallen right back in love with it. I slap a bit on at night before moisturiser and my skin drinks it up, cue beautiful, smooth skin in the morning (perfect for winter and for when you've got a spot).
Another skincare product that has caught my eye recently is this NUDE Treatment Oil. I only have a sample size of this which I got free from Space NK, but it's enough to leave a big impact on me and I reckon a full size of this will be working its way into my routine pretty swiftly! This quickly absorbs into my skin overnight and feels delicious.

Next up is another sample, this time perfume. I've never been a fan of this Paco Rabanne Lady Million perfume before but after giving it a whirl for the first time, I like the scent on my skin. It's quite sweet and fresh and not too overpowering.

This Stila In The Light palette has completely bowled me over, it contains all the shades you'll ever need (in my opinion!) - plenty for day wear, a couple of matte brows and some darker, more sultry shades for evening. The shades are easy to apply and work with and I haven't put it down since I first got it!

This Week I've Been Wearing... #8.

Soap & Glory Smoothie Star Body Milk; Lush Popcorn Lip Scrub; Eve Lom Morning Time cleanser; Sisley Global Perfect Pore Minimiser; Origins Night-A-Mins moisturiser; Viktor & Rolf Flowerbomb

These types of posts mean I really make use of products in my stash and I'm always adjusting my routines and finding new favourites. Here's what I've been using this week...

I picked up this Soap & Glory Smoothie Star Body Milk in Boots as part of a 3 for 2, I didn't exactly need it but I've been using it a lot as it's easy to squeeze out a few pumps of it after a shower and slather it on. It smells heavenly (obviously) and it's perfect for keeping up the essential winter skin maintenance without any hassle.
Another product I haven't gone without in the last few days is this Lush Popcorn Lip Scrub, it's smells (and tastes) gorgeous and keeps my lips in check. It's pretty mess free and is a simple step in my routine, just dab on lips, scrub at them and wipe/lick off!

One of my favourite cleansers is this Eve Lom Morning Time cleanser, it's a balm that refreshes and brightens the skin, deeply cleansing for the day ahead. I like this because it's quick, easy and doesn't require a cloth (although I do always use one!) so it's perfect for mornings when I'm perhaps a little bit slow...

I've been using this Sisley Global Perfect Pore Minimiser every day since I got it, it's a skincare product - somewhere between a serum and a primer - to smooth over skin and minimise pores. It's no secret that I love serums and primers so this is a winner for me. It makes such a big difference and my base goes on so much smoother. It's a pricey little bottle so it's definitely for special events!
This sample of Origins Night-A-Mins moisturiser has lasted me so long, I'm only about half way through and it feels like I've had it months. It's nourishing without being too rich and the perfect night cream (apparently it also helps you sleep!), it's meant to exfoliate away dead skin cells while you snooze - amazing!

Lastly, this bottle of Viktor & Rolf Flowerbomb was to replace my 100ml bottle that's almost finished. I've been wearing this for years and years (although not every day) so it's a familiar scent. It smells lovely and is one of my favourite to wear. You only need a spritz so a little goes a very long way!

This Week I've Been Wearing... #7.

Dove Nourishing Oil Care Regenerating mask; Origins Never A Dull Moment Skin Brightening Polisher; Nude Miracle Mask; Soap & Glory Sugar Crush Body Wash; Essie Midnight Cami; Bobbi Brown Pot Rouge in Fresh Melon

As you can probably tell, it's been a week of pampering. Whenever the cold weather sets in, it's fight, flight or freeze in my opinion. I chose fight, so I've picked out my favourite nourishing, hydrating and exfoliating products to keep me on top form.

I've already proclaimed my love for the Dove Nourishing Oil Care range, and this Dove Nourishing Oil Care Regenerating mask has to be my favourite haircare product at the moment. Like the entire range, it smells simply incredible. I leave it on for 5-10 minutes once a week and my hair feels like silk.
Another Origins product has caught my eye... and skin... this week, and that's the Origins Never A Dull Moment Skin Brightening Polisher. It's not quite the abrasive scrub I was hoping for, but rather a thick cleanser with exfoliating particles. It does, however, do the job and my skin feels beautifully smooth after use. I'll do a full review on this soon.

After using the aforementioned, I use a little bit of my new favourite skincare item. Okay, one of. I had been eyeing up this Nude Miracle Mask for some time before biting the bullet and handing over my bank card in Space NK. It's an exfoliating mask which manually (very gently and naturally, using rice beads) exfoliates with tiny particles within, but also using natural AHAs (Alpha Hydroxy Acids) to buff away dead skin cells. After one use my skin looked and felt incredible, although it's a little more pricey than what I would usually pay, I'm incredibly impressed with this.

Next up is the Soap & Glory Sugar Crush body wash, a delicious foamy shower gel which, of course, smells heavenly. I saw a few Instagram snaps of this and I was running out of my favourite Soap & Glory body wash so I picked this up as a replacement. It smells like mojitos, citrus-y and sugary and just plain gorgeous!

Whilst in Boots, I couldn't help myself and popped Essie Midnight Cami in to my already overflowing basket. I love, love, love dark, inky nails and this had to be mine. It's the most perfect dark navy shade with a subtle shade - it's very autumnal and I think it will be gracing my nails an awful lot over the coming weeks.

Lastly, well what would a Sunday post from gh0stparties be without a blusher?! This one is Bobbi Brown Pot Rouge in Fresh Melon, I used it in my Glowing Skin Tutorial and I just love how it wakes up my skin and completes any look.

This Week I've Been Wearing... #6.

Smashbox Softbox palette; Ole Henriksen Truth Serum Collagen Booster; Origins Clear Improvement mask; Laura Mercier Silk Creme; Bobbi Brown Vitamin Enriched Face Base; L'Oreal False Lash Telescopic Mascara

This week didn't differ too much from last weeks post, but I did dig out a few new products that are yet to be featured on gh0stparties. I'll have full reviews on most of these in the coming weeks, no doubt!

This Smashbox Softbox palette is one of my favourites, it has a great range of shades that can be worn alone or together and I find the staying power of Smashbox shadows is amazing. I think Smashbox is a great brand so I'm pleased to see it move in to Boots as it means products are easier to get hold of. Their palettes are amazing, gorgeous shades, no fall out and lovely to apply! I got this out recently as I hadn't used it for a while and I fell in love all over again!

I've been testing out this Ole Henriksen Truth Serum Collagen Booster after getting it in the Glossybox Exclusive Editions and I love how smooth it makes my skin. I've only been using it this week so I can't say too much just yet but I really like the results so far. I always try and use a serum and this seems to be keeping my complexion in check.
Along with this, I've dug out my Origins Clear Improvement mask for a bit of a detox this week. Whenever I don't get enough sleep, my pores become clogged quickly and I notice my skin isn't so clear, this charcoal mask draws out impurities and helps to unclog pores. It's one of my favourite masks for a good detox, everything comes to the top the next day but it helps so much in the long run.

I recently bought this Bobbi Brown Vitamin Enriched Face Base, it's a lovely moisturiser and primer in one and helps to create the perfect base for makeup. It smells really clean and fresh, and my skin looks a lot more flawless after applying this. I only purchased this recently but I love the results already.
Laura Mercier Silk Creme is my all time favourite foundation, I've come back to it this week after a little break from it while testing out other products. It's great coverage and has a lovely natural, luminous finish which leaves my skin looking so healthy. It applies so easily and blends in to my skin for the most perfect finish.

Lastly, I've been using this L'Oreal False Lash Telescopic Mascara but I'm not too fond of it. After using my favourite Clinique High Impact Extreme Volume mascara, this just doesn't match up. It is, however, a great mascara for day time and lazy days as it's a good price and does plump up the lashes a fair bit.

This Week I've Been Wearing... #5.

Benefit Hervana Blush; BECCA Watermelon tint; Bobbi Brown Long Wear Even Finish Foundation; Dove Leave In Conditioner; Essie Luxedo; Bumble & Bumble Hairdressers Invisible Oil; Urban Decay Naked 2 Palette

This week I've been trying out some new products, as well as picking out a few old favourites that haven't been used in some time! These are all really Autumnal products, I always love when it gets a bit colder and I can get back to wearing darker, richer shades. 

Benefits Hervana is not a blush I reach for every day, but when I do I'm surprised at how much I love it on my cheeks. It's a shade I pick out for the colder months as it has purple undertones on my skin tone which is a nice change from the shades I usually wear. 

Another lovely Autumn shade is the BECCA Watermelon Beach Tint, this is one of my favourite lip products but it had somehow worked its way to the bottom of my lipstick drawer. This is a great matte tint for lips and cheeks in the most beautiful berry shade. I really recommend this if you haven't already tried it. 

I've been testing out the new Bobbi Brown Long Wear Even Finish foundation over the last week or two so I should hopefully have a review up this week. I'm really impressed with it so far, I like how natural it looks on my skin and the lasting power is a selling factor too. 

A couple of hair products have been working their way in to my routine lately, I've become obsessed with keeping my hair in good condition now it's a bit longer and I'm all about using conditioners and oils. This Dove Leave in Conditioner is just heavenly, it smells divine and detangles my hair so easily (something I struggle with!). In-between washes I spray a small amount on my hairbrush for lovely smooth hair. 

Bumble and Bumbles Hairdresser Invisible Oil is the latest hair oil to catch my eye, you only need a small amount of this to give your hair a lovely silky feel. So far it's worked wonders on the ends of my hair, and really helped to keep it shiny for as long as possible.

Essies Luxedo nail polish has quickly worked its way up the ranks to become my favourite Autumn nail polish. It's a deep, rich purple which is a lovely contrast against my fair skin. It's a nice change from the usual pinks and pastels that I usually wear, too. 

Lastly, I've dug out my trusty Naked 2 Palette as it hasn't seen the light for some time. I really love the first few shades of this palette, they're really easy to wear either alone or blended together and it's a great palette to have. I prefer the second palette to the first as I find the cooler shades to be much more wearable (also the packaging is easier to keep clean).

This Week I've Been Wearing... #4.

REN Purity Cleansing Balm*; REN Smooth & Renew Mask*; Origins VitaZing moisturiser; Bobbi Brown BB Cream*; Smashbox Photo Finish Primer; Antipodes Manuka Honey Mask*; MAC Mocha blusher. 

This weeks picks contained a few new products that will soon have full reviews on here. My skincare routine has completely changed my skin and it looks so healthy that I now wear BB Creams instead of foundations, which has really shaken up my beauty routines. 

My favourite skincare brand is REN, it's really improved my skin over the last year and it's the main reason my skin has gone from being oily and blemish prone to normal and pretty much clear! 

I've been using the No1 Purity Cleansing Balm recently, it's a natural balm cleanser which takes off all makeup and leaves skin feeling soft and cleansed. This has replaced my Bioderma and other makeup removing cleansers as it's so easy to use and takes off every last drop of makeup - including mascara. 

After this, I tend to slather on my favourite face masks as of late, starting with another REN gem, the Smooth and Renew mask. After my favourite REN Glycolactic Radiance mask finished, I thought I would try Smooth and Renew as it's the same idea (aimed at more sensitive skins too), it contains antioxidants and essential oils to exfoliate and detox the skin, meaning my skin feels so smooth afterwards and looks bright and clear. 

I usually have one night a week where I apply a couple of face masks, I find my skin really gets a good deep detox and cleanse. After using Smooth and Renew by REN, I pop on my current favourite moisturising mask from Antipodes, their Aura Manuka Honey Mask. This is an incredible product for cleansing and clearing out skin, whilst also giving it a good moisturise. This tingles my skin a little bit which lets me know it's working, and my skin feels incredible after use. 

As my skin is looking healthier and brighter recently, I am now wearing a much more minimal base. I start with my trusty Origins VitaZing moisturiser, this has a sheer tint to give the perfect healthy glow to skin, it makes my skin look like I've been on holiday! This makes my base look clear and imperfections are hidden, and so I apply an old favourite next - Smashbox Photo Finish primer. I've been using this on and off for quite a few years now and it's a product I always go back to. It smooths over my skin and creates such a flawless finish, really helping to minimise pores and keep my makeup on all day. 

I've been only wearing BB creams recently and I've fallen in love, this week I've been adoring this Bobbi Brown number. It makes my skin look really natural and clear without looking like I'm wearing a lot of makeup. I don't feel I need powder afterwards and it stays all day.
Lastly, I've been trying to get a good amount of use from my MAC blushers recently as I do have quite the collection (see video here). Mocha is a dusty pink/plum shade and not one I would usually go for. It's a lovely flush of colour and the perfect shade for Autumn.

This Week I've Been Wearing... #3.

Soap & Glory Rich&Foamous Body Wash; Jergens Skin Firming body moisturiser*; Hydraluron Moisture Booster; Burberry eye shadow in Pale Barley; MAC blush in Fleur Power; Laura Mercier Silk Creme foundation; Moroccanoil; Dove Nourishing Oil Care Express Conditioner. 

It's clearly been a week of pampering for me, I've pulled out some of my favourite nourishing products for hair, skin and body.

First up is a new body wash I purchased recently, Soap and Glorys Rich & Foamous. I love Soap and Glorys products and this is to replace another body wash of theirs I recently used up. Rich & Foamous has the most amazing smell, even better than the usual Soap and Glory scent I think. It lathers up nicely and leaves my skin smelling good and feeling silky smooth.

I've been following this up with Jergens Skin Firming body moisturiser, it's been my most reached for body lotion recently - it aims to help improve the appearance of "orange peel" skin which I can't really comment on but it's a great, thick moisturiser which really helps to keep my skin feeling soft.

Hydraluron Moisture Booster is a product which has been rather hyped recently, I bought it hoping it might help the roughness my skin was experiencing and help to hydrate it more. I'm really unsure if it's had much affect as of yet, I've not seen a change to my skin but I'll report back in a few weeks!

I won't say too much on this next product, Burberrys Pale Barley eye shadow, as I plan on reviewing it fully this week. But what I will say is, it's my absolutely favourite eye product and I've used it every day since I got it a few weeks ago!

MACs Fleur Power blush and Laura Mercier Silk Creme foundation are much loved favourites of mine, Fleur Power is a bright pink which gives my cheeks a lovely pop of colour - I find myself reaching for this so often. Laura Mercier Silk Creme is my all time favourite foundation and when I don't wear BB Creams, I always reach for this. It gives amazing coverage without looking heavy and gives my skin a lovely glow.

Lastly, my hair has been in for a treat recently, I've dug out my Moroccanoil to help keep my hair soft and smooth. I've never really been a fan of this before, I always thought it was too thick and heavy, but as my hair has gotten slightly longer, I've really appreciated the difference it's made.
Doves Nourishing Oil Care range is one of the best, and this express conditioner is one of my favourite hair care products. It smells heavenly and after leaving it on your hair for a minute, the ends are really nourished and healthy. I really recommend this as it's a bargain!

This Week I've Been Wearing... #2.

Guerlain La Petite Robe Noire Eau De Parfum; NUXE Huile Prodigieuse Oil; Caudalie Beauty Elixir; Oribe Dry Texturising Spray; Liz Earle Eye Shadow & Brush; Lierac Diopti Cerne eye cream; Revlon Smoked Peach lipstick; Topshop Sunbeam.  I've dug out a few favourites this week (honestly, how do I even let them get to the bottom of my stash?) I'm mainly talking about Caudalie's Beauty Elixir - this helps my blemish-prone skin so much! Any imperfections are quickly sorted with a few spritzes of this, I often use my fingers to rub it in and I love how much it cools and calms my skin.  Another old favourite is my trusty Lierac eye cream, I can't find this online at the moment (luckily I have a good amount left) as apparently they are repackaging their products. This is a really great eye cream for those with dark circles, it's not too rich and has really made a massive difference to my peepers. NUXE Huile Prodigieuse is another product I've been using constantly this week, I have really dry, rough patches on my shoulders and this really helps to sort them out. It's light and doesn't leave me feeling greasy afterwards and absorbs in in no time. I use it after a bath or shower and always have the softest skin afterwards.  I usually keep Oribe Dry Texturising Spray in my handbag as it's compact and great for giving hair some volume and texture on the go. This is one of my favourite products to use on dry hair, it works like a dry shampoo but it doesn't leave any residue. Great for those with fine hair, like me!  Another great handbag sized product is Guerlain Le Petite Robe Noire pefume, this is a delicious girly scent, quite strong but really floral and sweet. I usually go for floral, sweet scents and I quite like this one. It can be overpowering though so only one spray is needed!  On to makeup, my go to eye combo this week has been my new Liz Earle Rose Quartz eye shadow and the incredible eye brush. I was lucky enough to receive this as a sample, I always love the colours I get, they're never ones I would pick myself but they always open my eyes (heh) to colours I wouldn't have otherwise tried. Rose Quartz is a soft pinky beige, almost a rose gold but very subtle. I love this for day time and usually smoke it up at night with a darker shade.  With this I've been wearing another old favourite, Revlons Smoked Peach lipstick. I'm not big on matte lipsticks but this one gets me every time! It's the perfect peach with a tiny hint of pink and a lipstick I find myself wearing all the time.  Lastly, yet another product I couldn't live without - Topshops Sunbeam highlighter. If you love glowy cheeks, you need this! It's a really fine gold highlighter that brightens up cheeks and gives a really fresh look. I can't recommend this enough.  What do you think of this weeks picks? YouTube - Instagram - Facebook - Bloglovin' - Twitter

This Week I've Been Wearing... #1.

Timotei Pure Dry Shampoo*, L'Oreal Rouge Caresse in Aphrodite Scarlet, Illamasqua Cream Blush in Sob, Ojon Instant Restorative Hair Serum*, Aesop Facial Hydrating Serum, Essie Watermelon Nail Polish, Benefit Ultra Shine Lipgloss in Life on the A List, Antipodes Brightening and Correcting Serum*, L'Oreal Touche Magique Concealer

I thought it was about time a new feature hit gh0stparties.com, and it seemed right to post all about the products I've been wearing on a weekly basis. As a blogger who is addicted to all things beauty, it's likely that I'm trying a fair few new products each week, or delving in to my collection and finding old favourites.

The week I've been using everything from dry shampoo to cream blushers, so this is a little insight of the products I've been using daily (and nightly) this week.
I have had Timoteis Dry Shampoo for some time now but only really got round to using it this week. The vintage hair brand have made a come back recently and I'm really in to this dry shampoo. It doesn't leave any white powder or residue and my fine hair is thoroughly cleansed for the whole day! 

I've also been a fan of the pink lips, cheeks and nails recently - I pulled out my Illamasqua blush in Sob for the dreary weather and I like the subtle pop of pink on my cheeks. It goes so well with the Benefit lipgloss in Lift on the A-List - one of my favourite glosses, it's a lovely light nude pink with just that right amount of shimmer. 

Once again Essies Watermelon nail polish has been a favourite of mine, I really can't get enough of this glossy raspberry shade. I rarely paint my nails with a shade twice in a row, so this has really won me over. It goes so perfectly with my lip colour of choice at the moment, the L'Oreal Rouge Caresse lipstick in Aphrodite Scarlet. I love how easy this makes wearing red lipstick, it's such a glossy shade that works for everyone. 

I came across an old favourite of mine in this L'Oreal Touche Magique concealer. I bought the wrong shade some time ago but as it turns out, this works so well for under eyes. I've swapped all my high end under eye products for this inexpensive concealer which covers all! 

Lastly, serums have been a big part of my week as you can see! I love this Ojon hair serum on damp hair to keep it in check, my hair really feels so much healthier after using this and it's one I think I'll be using a lot over the coming months.  

As for skincare, two of my favourite skincare brands have been top of my most used list. I only have a few samples of this Aesop serum but it does amazing things to my skin and I can tell it's going to be great for keeping my skin hydrated during the colder months.
Along with this, Antipodes Brightening and Correcting serum is working wonders on my blemish prone skin to fade dark marks and keep my skin looking healthy. I love everything I try from Antipodes, and this serum is no exception.
