ESPA Overnight Hydration Therapy:
The first product I want in full size is the ESPA Overnight Hydration Therapy which you’ve probably seen me talk about quite a lot on my blog. I received my first sample of this back in the 2018 LookFantastic Advent Calendar which my skin absolutely fell in love with and I did get another sample when I trained with ESPA last year. It’s a deep treatment mask that I always use almost like a serum and pop on before bed when my skin needs a little pick me up. After using, my skin always feels really soft and supple with a healthy glow about it and it also has a strong lavender scent which helps to get a good nights sleep. This mask is best used overnight, hence the name, because it has an ingredient call the 4 O’clock flower which rejuvenates itself in the middle of the night, so it does exactly that to your skin throughout the night too. I highly recommend giving this a try!
Smashbox Photo Finish Hydrating Under Eye Primer:
I’ve had a number of different products from Smashbox in the past but they’ve always been samples and miniatures. I’ve had the Hydrating Under Eye Primer for longer than I should probably admit, but when I do get round to using it, I forget just how much I love it. I honestly don’t know why you’d need an under eye primer, but I use it both under my eyes and all over the lid and find it really hydrating; more like an eye cream. I do have quite dry under eyes and when they’re particularly dry I use this and it dos really help on those days.
Smashbox Photo Finish Foundation Primer:
Also from Smashbox, I have their Foundation Primer and I’ve had sample after sample of this and never really needed to buy the full size. I find a lot of silicone based primers to be quite drying but this one is more smoothing, fills in the pores and makes my skin feel really soft whilst also mattifying any more oily areas. It is a little more pricey than my other go-to primers, but it does keep my foundation and the rest of my base products looking great throughout the day.
Benefit Gimme Brow:
Next up is my new ride or die brow product, the Benefit Gimmie Brow. This is one of those products that many beauty gurus and bloggers have raved about for a good couple of years now and, although I’ve had this in my ‘new in’ draw since last December, it was only a few months or so ago that I actually took it out of the packaging to try it out; I now couldn’t be without it. During lock down when my brows were really in need of being done, my normal products I would use just didn’t make them look great at all, so I decided to use this and it really tidies them up, adds some colour and keeps them in place all day. I much prefer more natural brows at the moment and it’s all down to this one little product.
MAC Lipstick in Velvet Teddy:
Velvet Teddy is one of those lipsticks that I always have to have in my collection; I can’t be without it. Although I have previously has this in a full size, I just find this mini bullet so cute, however there just isn’t enough product in it! It’s the perfect warm toned dark nude, its my all time favourite lipstick and I think it always will be.
Too Faced Lip Injection Extreme Gloss:
Have you tried any of these products? Have you found any miniatures you want in full size?
