GOSH Cosmetics has come up with some crackers this season, and the Prime ‘n Set Primer and Mattifying Powder is one of them. As my main beauty tip is prep the skin, I love all things primer. However, I had never used a powder primer.

Product review: Balance Me Natural Protection Moisturiser SPF 25
I was familiar with Balance Me, but I will admit I didn’t really know the extent of their range or the natural goodness of their products. Good thing they had a lovely skin analysis event at their concession at Debenhams Oxford Street and I got to not only have my skin analysed but also find out about their products and try a few!
Balance Me has recently launched their Natural Protection Moisturiser, which has SPF25, just in time for the warmer (we hope) season.
Nails of the week: metallic blue
Before I went away, I decided to do a simple, but effective mani, as I knew I was getting my talons done professionally for the duration of my stay.
So I use the beautiful Stargazer Chrome nail polish in 236, a beautiful blue hue on my very short nails – I broke one really badly so had to give them all the chop!
Brazilian beauty brand O Boticário gears up for World Cup
All eyes on Brazil – I noticed many beauty brands have launched lines inspired by Brazil in preparation for the World Cup. Under the tagline “Ours are the most beautiful supporters in the world” Brazilian Beauty and skincare giant O Boticário has taken it a step further, launching a whole line of products to be used not only to mark the event but also when cheering for Brazil during the World Cup.

Product review: Sheer Cover Conceal & Brighten trio
I had been curious about Sheer Cover products for a while, mainly due to their TV adverts, and was very excited to finally try one of them.
The Sheer Cover Conceal & Brighten trio comes in a handy compact with mirror, with two concealer shades and a brightener.
Lipcote Lipstick Finder
It is no secret Lipcote is one of the products I cannot live without. I rave about it, I recommend it, I take it as a gift to lipstick-loving friends in Brazil. I simply love it.
Recently I came across their Lipstick Finder – an application on their site that helps us, indecisive ladies, to pick the right lipstick shade.
B. Make Up launches and master class
I will admit – I wasn’t very familiar with B. Makeup before the lovely breakfast they offered to bloggers – and I was glad I found out; I am pleasantly surprised with their extensive range of makeup and skincare products.
And for the new season, they were launching quite a few crackers, some available now and later this year.
Product review: Colgate Max White One Optic
Colgate Max White One Optic promises to give you an instant brightening effect so you can flash your pearly whites without worrying about a thing.
This toothpaste uses an optical brightener; basically, blue particles that will reflect light in a way to make your teeth look whiter.
