💖 UYU REVIEW: dear my glass tinting lips-talk lipsticks / soon jung skincare from ETUDE HOUSE keep reading for the review!

Hello everyone! Sorry for being MIA on this blog – I’ve been in China where Tumblr is blocked so I haven’t been able to get online until recently. I hope you’ll all had a good Easter! 💕

I’m sure you guys know about Etude House if you’re into Korean beauty! They were one of the first brands I heard about once I got into K-beauty and they’re very well-known for having cute packaging and affordable products! They have a ‘princess’ aesthetic which shines through in their packaging especially - the product that got me hooked on Etude House was their Etoinette lipstick (that packaging!) from a few years back.

Today I’m going to be reviewing some new Etude House products from their Pink Bird box! The March box had a healthy mix of skincare and make-up - I’ll also be reviewing the April box very soon (there has been some mix-ups with my box deliveries, so sorry for the late reviews!)

Disclaimer: These products were sent to me by Etude House for review and consideration. I am not being compensated for this review and opinions are always 100% honest.

✏️ ABOUT THE ITEM: Soon Jung Skincare Trial Kit

The first thing I’ll be reviewing is the Soon Jung Skincare Trial Kit! This is a mini trial kit of the items from the new Soon Jung line.

The Soon Jung skincare line is designed to be mild on the skin, so it’s ideal for sensitive or damaged skin. It’s supposed to relieve skin irritation as well which fits in with the whole simple and clean design of all the products. All the products have been non-comedogenic tested (meaning that it didn’t acne in clinical tests), hypoallergenic tested and sensitive skin tested – however, this doesn’t mean the product will be perfect for everyone so I would still strongly suggest patch testing as everyone’s skin is different! For reference, my skin is normal-dry.

As I mentioned above, this is only a trial kit (I don’t believe you can purchase this exact kit directly from Etude House anymore) but the products are available in two different sizes normally. There’s an Easy size which would be good for travel and a good way to try out these products, and a Regular size, which is the full-size product. Currently, on the Etude House website you can buy a set that includes both the Regular and Easy size.

This kit only contains four items, but there are other items in the line, including a low pH whip cleanser and dry capsule sheets.

Here are the individual features and claims for each of the products in the kit:

Soon Jung 5-Panthensoside Cica Balm

The highly adhesive gel type balm is smooth and fresh, keeping the skin moist and relaxing irritated skin.

Contains 5% panthensoside (combination of panthenol and madecassoside)

Soon Jung 2X Barrier Intensive Cream

Shea butter and oil complex balances oil and moisture levels, to maintain elasticity and moisture.

Lightweight and mild moisturising cream helps keep skin soft and supple.

Soon Jung 10-Free Moist Emulsion

10-Free means this product is free from animal-derived ingredients, mineral oil, pigments, synthetic perfume, polyacrylamide, silicon, imidazolidinyl urea, triethanolamine, PEG surfactant and parabens.

Hypoallergenic and lightweight formula refreshes your skin while providing intensive hydration.

Soon Jung pH 5.5 Relief Toner

Cooling Relief soothes and calms inflamed skin, which has been caused by external stimulation.

As well as the above, every item also has a low pH which is closer to the skin’s natural pH and less harsh on the skin compared to more alkaline products. You might not know, but a lot of products, cleansers particularly, have quite high pH levels which can be damaging to the skin’s acid mantle. Another feature of the line is that the products contain panthenol, which soothes the skin, and madecassoside which takes care of skin damage and promotes healing.

I won’t analyse the entire ingredients list for everything because it would make this review needlessly long – however, I have linked to the lists on cosDNA so you are free to view them as you wish!

Soon Jung 5-Panthensoside Cica Balm Possible irritants: squalene, cetearyl alcohol, butylene glycol Panthenol is 3rd on the ingredients list and madecassoside is 6th. Good to see the star ingredients are relatively high in the ingredients list here!

Soon Jung 2X Barrier Intensive Cream Possible irritants: Cetearyl alcohol, butylene glycol Panthenol is 10th on the ingredients list and madecassoside is 11th.

Soon Jung 10-Free Moist Emulsion Possible irritants: squalene, cetearyl alcohol, stearic acid, butylene glycol Panthenol is 6th on the ingredients list and madecassoside is 7th.

Soon Jung pH 5.5 Relief Toner Possible irritants: butylene glycol, carbomer Panthenol is 6th on the ingredients list and madecassoside is 7th.

So as you can see, even though the line is designed to be mild and catered for sensitive skin, the products still do contain alcohol which can be a problem for those of you that are sensitive.

As I mentioned earlier, you can find all the Soon Jung skincare on Etude House Global. Currently you can get free shipping on orders over $50!

Here are some other retailers where you can find these items:

Beauty Box Korea — shipping by weight

Cosmetic-Love — free shipping

Jolse — free shipping

Korea Depart — shipping by weight

Roseroseshop (link to Trial Kit!) — shipping by weight

And here is a price break-down between the regular and easy sizes:

Soon Jung 5-Panthensoside Cica Balm Easy size = $9.10 for 15mL = $0.61/mL Regular size = $20.40 for 40mL = $0.51/mL

Soon Jung 2X Barrier Intensive Cream Easy size = $11.10 for 30mL = $0.37/mL Regular size = $18.00 for 60mL = $0.30/mL

Soon Jung 10-Free Moist Emulsion Easy size = $10.40 for 72mL = $0.14/mL Regular size = $15.60 for 120mL = $0.13/mL

Soon Jung pH 5.5 Relief Toner Easy size = $10.40 for 80mL = $0.13/mL Regular size = $15.60 for 180mL = $0.087/mL

Keep in mind that I used the normal prices of the easy sizes (they are on sale right now though), and also that the regular sizes are actually being bundled together in a set with an easy size (at the time of publishing), so you're getting a free easy size as well! 😁

So you can see that the regular sizes are always more 'bang for your buck' than the easy sizes, although the 10-Free Moist Emulsion is super close.

📷 PHOTOS + DETAILS: Soon Jung Skincare Trial Kit

The Soon Jung 5-Panthensoside Cica Balm has a very light gel texture, just as it says in the claims.

The Soon Jung 2X Barrier Intensive Cream has a thicker texture than the Cica Balm and definitely feels more occlusive. It's not a heavy cream, I'd say it's somewhere between a gel cream and a thick cream.

The Soon Jung 10-Free Moist Emulsion has a viscous water texture, and is quite light on the skin too.

The Soon Jung pH 5.5 Relief Toner has a watery texture, similar to most other toners. I didn’t insert a picture since it was too watery to keep on my hand.

I know that a lot of people like to use low pH toners after cleansing to help reset their skin balance – this could be a good product for you if you have a favourite cleanser that happens to have a high pH.

None of the products had a distinctive smell, so that’s a positive if you’re sensitive to fragrance!

For my overall thoughts on this skincare line, make sure to scroll to the bottom of the review!

✏️ ABOUT THE ITEM: Dear My Glass Tinting Lips-talk + Case

The next items are my favourite part of this box! I was really hyped for this release when I saw Korean beauty bloggers reviewing it and I'm really excited to review these for you guys!

Etude House Lips-talk lipsticks were one of the first lipsticks I bought, and I've always loved their cute packaging. Their new Dear My Glass Tinting Lips-talk line is a bit different though, because it's totally customisable. Instead of purchasing a whole lipstick where every colour in the line has the same packaging, you can buy the colour and case separately so all your lipsticks will be unique!

There are 20 different shades and 20 case designs that you can choose to mix and match!

As well as that, here are some other features:

High-gloss base makes lips with volume.

Gives a sliding feel as it’s applied softly on the lips

Vitamin C makes your lips healthy

f(x)'s Krystal is Etude House's main model, and there are a ton of special 'Krystal's pick' in this collection. Some of the colours she picked actually have her signature on the tube, which I'll show below.

Here are the ingredients for the colour PK003 (the other colour’s ingredients may vary sightly — you can view them on the Etude House listing)

Hydrogenated poly(c6-14 olefin), Diisostearyl malate, C12-15 alkyl benzoate, Hydrogenated polyisobutene, Polyethylene, Microcrystalline wax, Alumina, Polyglyceryl-2 triisostearate, Polyhydroxystearic acid, Titanium dioxide (CI 77891), Red 22 Lake (CI 45380), VP/Hexadecene copolymer, Polyglyceryl-2- diisostearate, Fragrance, Red 6 (CI 15850), Red 28 Lake (CI 45410), Red 27 (CI 45410), Honey extract, Tin oxide, Sodium ascorbate, Hydrolyzed collagen, Water, Glycerin, Butylene glycol, Alcohol, Sodium hyaluronate

Nothing interested popped up, except that the italicised ingredients are level 1 (very low) acne triggers, although it shouldn't be too much of a problem since this is a lip product. I bolded sodium ascorbate as it is a form of vitamin C, which was mentioned as one of the features.

As for pricing, buying this set does work out slightly more expensive than buying an already packaged lipstick — however, an idea I had, was that after you buy the cases you like, you can just buy the colours from then on and switch them in and out. When you purchase the colours they come with a plastic lid (shown below) so you can still store them outside of the proper cases.

The only downside is that you won't be able to carry all your colours at once, but 99% of the time you'll only need to take one colour out with you anyway!

Here are the retailers where you can pick these up:

Colour refills

Etude House Global: $10.40 (free shipping over $50)

Beauty Box Korea: $7.01 USD (shipping by weight)

iBuyBeauti: $5.75 USD (free shipping over $50)

Jolse: $6.78 USD (free shipping worldwide)

Cases

Etude House Global: $5.20 (free shipping over $50)

W2Beauty: $4.16 USD (free shipping over $60)

📷 PHOTOS + DETAILS: Dear My Glass Tinting Lips-talk + Case

Here is the packaging that the colour refills come in. The packaging is really similar to the other lipsticks from Etude House, with the cute scalloping on the box. I received three colours: PK003, RD302 and BR402.

The refills come with a clear plastic lid to protect the colour from smudging against the packaging. At the bottom is where you can slot it into a lipstick case. The name of the shade is printed on the side of the tube so don’t worry about forgetting what colour you have.

This system is really easy to use. After removing the protective lid, you just slightly press the refill tube into the bottom of the lipstick case. You should hear a soft click once it's in. It's easily removed this way as well, but the tube won't slide out on it's own.

Here are the lipstick cases! I got designs #4, #15 and #17. I really love the flamingo case and the hugs + kisses case, but the lollipop case isn't really my style.

From left to right, the colours are BR402, RD302, PK003 (I accidentally smudged the top of BR402 ;n;).

Like I mentioned earlier, on the side of some 'Krystal's Pick' colours, you can see Krystal's signature. The one shown here is PK003, but RD302 didn't have the signature (so maybe it was just one colour that had it?)

✨ SWATCHES + FIRST IMPRESSIONS: Dear My Glass Tinting Lips-talk + Case

Here are the swatches from Etude House's website, for reference!

Here are some arm swatches, only one swipe was used for each colour.

Here are the lip swatches!

PK003 is a medium cool-toned pink. Initially, I thought that it didn't suit me but since I dyed my hair lighter recently it's actually been really nice 💕 It is a bit tougher to match for me because most of my eyeshadows etc. are warm-toned, but I really like it as a colour. It's not quite as bubblegum-pink or dark as it looks in the offical swatches.

RD302 is a darker, warmer pink in comparison. It's easier to match than PK003 and it's similar in tone to my favourite lip tint, Peripera Peri's Ink #1. It's a bit sheerer than Etude House's swatch but it looks very similar.

BR402 is a warm beige-pink nude on me. Like RD302, the colour looks really similar to Etude House's swatch but just sheerer. I really, really like this colour 💗 It's easy to wear as a nude / MLBB colour and I've worn it almost everyday since I got it! When it fades, it turns a bit more pink but still looks natural and easy to wear when I'm not wearing much other make-up.

Here is a photo of me wearing BR402~

💭 OVERVIEW + FINAL THOUGHTS

Soon Jung Skincare Trial Kit: 3.5 / 5

My rating on this is a bit reluctant as I feel like I haven’t used the products long enough to be able to gauge them 100% (that’s the problem with trial sizes😓) However, I didn’t overly love or loathe anything. Nothing was terrible but I didn’t really love any of them enough to consider replacing my current skincare staples either.

My favourite item was probably the Soon Jung 2X Barrier Intensive Cream, as I don’t own another cream with the same texture and it’s quite moisturising and lightweight.

I'm not 100% sure but I think the Soon Jung 10-Free Moist Emulsion actually broke me out, which was a pity because I don't actually have an emulsion product in my routine right now and I would've liked to use it up.

I do like the idea of a less harsh skincare line for sensitive skin though and I think it's good that Etude House is promoting key ingredients that aren't just hype (I've never heard of panthenol or madecassoside before I tried these products!), even though the products didn't work out amazingly for me.

One thing to remember is that skincare is very YMMV and every person is different so what works for me might not work for you!

💖 Pros: Low pH, available in different sizes, non-comedogenic, hypoallergenic tested and sensitive skin tested. 💔 Cons: Didn't seem to anything special for my skin (caution, because I haven't been able to test these products over a long period and my skin is different from yours)

Dear My Glass Tinting Lips-talk + Case: 4.5 / 5

Overall, I'm really fond of the formula of these lipsticks. The Glass Tinting Lips-talk line isn't the most pigmented, but that means it's a much more forgiving formula. I do have to reapply often but I don't really mind because when the colours fades, they still look pretty and they don't fade in weird patterns.

The formula glides on really easily and it feels very moisturising on the lips - this is the first lipstick I haven't had to wear lip balm under. I think these lipsticks are a good combination between a lipstick and lip balm that isn't just a lightly tinted balm. The pigmentation is alright though and can be built up gradually.

The case designs are also cute and pretty high quality - my favourites are the hugs + kisses and flamingo cases. The hugs + kisses case is actually matte on the blue part which is nice!

I also really like this system of mixing and matching, and being able to pick your own lipstick case design. Of course Etude House didn't invent this idea, but I haven't seen too many Korean brands doing it before. I'd really like it if Etude House could expand the range in the future with different formulas for the refills, and maybe collabs with artists for case designs. Ah, I can dream.

Anyway, I'm definitely going to be trying some more colours from this line! I've got my eyes on OR202 and PP501 👀

💖 Pros: Unique mix and match lipstick / case system, comfortable lipstick formula that is highly moisturising, fades away nicely, can be layered. 💔 Cons: Only one formula to mix and match with currently, somewhat limited colour range, average pigmentation, pricier than buying a traditional lipstick.

0.2 Air Therapy Sheet Mask: 5 / 5

Since we are discussing Etude House products, I thought I'd share some more in-depth thoughts on their Air Therapy sheet masks since some people have requested it and they also included a couple flavours in this month’s box~

I know a lot of people were sad when Etude House discontinued their I Need You sheet mask range, but I actually prefer this new line a lot more. Like the name suggests, these sheet masks are super thin and thus sit more nicely on the skin, plus it’s a lot easier to fit to your face. Despite being so thin, they don't tear easily when trying to open them up. Every flavour is different and some tend to work better for me. The tea tree mask + Scinic Honey AIO Ampoule is my lifesaver for breakouts. The damask rose flavour is really good for a nice skin refresher (I used this on the plane when I was travelling). The strawberry is moisturising and just plain smells nice.

Not to mention these masks are super affordable, since Etude House is a roadshop brand after all. I would highly recommend picking them up if you can, especially in bulk.

You can find these at the following retailers (prices in USD unless indicated)

Etude House Global, free shipping over $50 $1.30 each

BB Cosmetic, free shipping worldwide (you can also enter code ‘BBUYURO’ for 8% off) $17.80 for 15 / $1.18 each

Beauty Box Korea, shipping by weight $0.82 each

Cosmetic-Love, free shipping worldwide $2.62 each | $19.40 for 15 / $1.29 each

iBuyBeauti, free shipping over $50 $1.07 each | $4.95 for 5 / $0.99 each

Jolse, free shipping worldwide $3.82 for 3 / $1.27 each

Korea Depart, shipping by weight $0.63 each

Rose Rose Shop, shipping by weight ₩700 / $0.62 each | ₩6,900 for 10 / $0.61 each

Tester Korea, shipping by weight ₩1,000 / $0.88 each

Plus Etude House sells bulk packages too:

Individual sheet masks ($1.30 each)

Set of 15 sheet masks ($1.30 each)

I would recommend waiting for a sale as these bulk packages have been severely discounted before (think 50% off). It's not really worth it otherwise, because you might as well pick your own flavours individually for the same price.

Thanks for reading through this super long review today! I hope it was helpful for you 💓 Let me know if you've tried the Glass Tinting Lips-talk colours and if you liked them!

This list is actually my own personal list of ways to be a more concious traveller.

In honesty, I am yet to implement a couple of these myself but I am determined to make the effort. After all I am very much human and a creature of habit and it will take some doing to make changes. But I’ve begun.

Tourism is now such a developed market that sometimes if you want to do the ‘better’ thing it is harder to do it. Bad choices are in abundance. You will feel discouraged and hopeless along the way but the important thing is to try to be awake.

Here are a few ways we can be conscious travellers:

1. Reduce your use of plastic bottles. Carry your own BPA free long life bottle that can be filled from filtered water sources or from larger, refillable (5L or 20L) bottles. For those with a bigger budget you may want to buy a bottle with an in built filter. I now carry my bottle with me as part of daily life.

2. The more budget accommodation you use the smaller your carbon footprint. Simpler accommodation means simpler services. For example, linen and towels would be changed less frequently and your room may not have an energy guzzling AC unit. That said you don’t have to ‘rough it’. Irrespective of where you choose to stay, you can request not to have your sheets and towels changed daily and you can use the AC to cool a room down then maintain a temperature with the fan. We combined different types of accommodation while traveling and tried not to compromise our choices by making requests.

3. Travel by train or hybrid vehicle where possible. Even better, walk as much as you’re comfortable with. When flying take the most direct routes as the biggest energy consumption takes place in the landing and takeoff of an aircraft. In the future we would like to travel bearing this in mind.

4. Do not encourage animal cruelty by indulging in attractions involving animals, especially those that are endangered, poorly cared for, unecessarily domesticated or used for entertainment purposes. You may think you’re helping a local person make a living but not at the expense of the well being of an animal.

5. Give where possible. It’s not good to encourage begging or to indulge local kids who asks for money randomly because they are accustomed to tourists taking pity. Put money where it is truly needed for a longer benefit. Buy food, sponsor first hand, clothe a person in need and donate where possible, especially to local causes in country. In Sri Lanka near tourist hot spots I would pass a young kid in the street who would smile and say hello to which I’d do the same and then he’d just say the word 'money’. I found this disturbing because someone (many?) would have just handed him some cash rather than invest in him long-term.

6. Buy local souvenirs if you must buy souvenirs. I mean souvenirs that aren’t genetically made to sell to mass tourists but rather hand made, hand crafted items. That said I must disavaid you from buying local when natural resources are compromised. For instance rare shells, coral, sponges, forcefully sourced animal skins or stuffed memorabilia. And look for alternative choices. We stumbled across an NGO in Bali that provided differently abled locals with a platform upon which to display their talents. Some painted, others printed on textiles. The items for sale were incredible and we got to interact with such inspiring locals.

7. Carry your own shopping bag. You will be given a plastic bag for the smallest purchase in the developing world (even in some of the first world!). Avoid plastic by carrying one or two reusable, preferably canvas or jute shopping bags.

8. Don’t litter. Carry your rubbish back with you and dispose of it mindfully. Recycling as much as possible.

9. Don’t haggle too much. Yes, it is customary not to pay the said price in some countries (at local markets) and there is room for manrouevr in prices. It is a respectful bargaining process and you don’t want to be taken for a ride. However, don’t bargain to a point where you make someone feel overly pressured or disrespect them by offering an insulting price. As a tourist you do have more of a disposable income. After all travel is considered a luxury? (Though an easily accessible and affordable one in today’s world). So if you can travel to far flung destinations you can certainly pay that £2 that you suddenly feel is too much!

10. Try where possible to use environmentally and body friendly toiletries and personal products. I have recently switched to a Bamboo toothbrush and have supplemented fancy shower 'gel’ for long lasting standard soap. I am also trying to reduce the amount of skin care products I use to a simple non toxic moisturiser (like E45). In addition and on a more personal note (and this is a more personal choice) sanitary products are disposable and contain traces of plastic. Not to mention the monthly cost. A menstraul cup could be a good alternative and easier and more compact to travel with.

11. Get involved in country. While traveling or visiting if you feel inclined to help out then get involved in local volunteer projects. For instance in Goa there are beach clean ups that anyone can get involved in.

12. Eat local and simple. Try local fruit and go to local restaurants. The money goes straight into the local economy. Chain restaurants or larger corporate restaurants put money into the pockets of those who already have it.

13. When we travel we carry a packet of simple biscuits with us to feed random hungry strays we come across. So giving goes beyond people, it should extend to local animals too.

14. Act accordingly and dress respectfully. Bikinis are for the beach. If I had a pound for every inappropriately dressed tourist at a temple or local market I’d be a wealthy girl.

15. Be present. Don’t travel merely for the photos or the sake of it being 'the thing to do’. I too am guilty of trying to capture so much on camera at times without actually just being witness to beauty and revelling in the moment. Make memories more than making your Instagram following larger.

I would love to hear if you have an opinion on these or any pointers to add.

Best home hair removal products that are affordable and easy to use

Whether a woman wants to let her body hair grow free or get rid of her is her prerogative. But if the latter is their preference, using the best hair removal products at home should not be a chore. It should not be an expensive routine to keep up. And as someone who almost always passes on a Brazilian (a word: Ouch) and eyebrow wax, I sign up with everything, especially now that the weather warms up and I want my chicks to thrive in the summer sun.

Hair removal at home is not always the most convenient or convenient option, but it saves money and offers maximum privacy to those who prefer to go without the salon or spa. Regardless of the part of the body you are targeting (even in the lower regions), ingrown hairs are inevitable. So, before you look at the best hair removal products for the home, you should do the following four things when ingrown animals try to steal your pleasure.

1. Leave her alone. "First, do not try to pluck, pull, shave, grow, or cut hair in the area where you have ingrown hair," says Karen Young, CEO and founder of Oui Shave. "They only make your skin more angry and possibly cause an infection. (But see # 3.)

2. Apply a warm compress and gently peel it off. We've become poetic about the benefits of facial exfoliation, and so does your body. If irritated, continue to use a soft washcloth soaked in warm water to soften the area for 10 to 15 minutes. Then use slow, circular movements to gently exfoliate with a salt or sugar scrub. This removes dead skin cells and regenerates the skin. Pre-shave exfoliation prevents shaving injuries and lifts the hair away from the skin for a more thorough shave, "says Young.

3. Free the trapped hair. You should only do this if you can see how the looped hair grows into your skin. "If you can not see the tip of your hair, go to step 4," says Young. "If you can see the hair, use a pair of pointed tweezers to extract it."

4. Apply a scrub and antibacterial oil. After the treatment of the hair, use an exfoliating oil to soothe and soothe the skin while preventing further irritation.

With that in mind, here are 17 products that will make you feel silky head-to-to-head.

I just discovered Origins skincare in April this year, and already I am kicking myself for not trying it earlier! The biggest fear I have with Western skincare is that it contains a ton of chemicals that might actually do more harm than good for my face. Usually when we talk about masking here, it’s almost always in reference to sheet masks, but I've always been a huge fan of these tub masks because they give a bigger bang for your buck. However, I have not strayed far from my typical LUSH masks because they use 100% natural ingredients and are more gentle on the skin, so I was really impressed with these Origins masks - in particular their Dragonfruit Superfruit Brightening Mask, and the Drink Up 10-Minute Hydrating Mask.

Dragonfruit Superfruit Brightening Mask: I can’t seem to find many reviews about this on the Internet, and I’m not sure if you can get the Dragonfruit mask in stores, because I think this might be an exclusive product that is not available everywhere. Texture wise, this mask is quite interesting. It has this lightweight cream texture, with tiny walnut shells to exfoliate your face. Be careful with walnut though because sometimes these shells can irritate your skin, so I usually am more gentle when applying this in comparison to other exfoliating masks. Thankfully enough this product does not have an abundance of these shells; just a tad here and there so it’s not that abrasive.

This mask is also one of my favourites, smell-wise. When you apply it you do get a fruity, refreshing, citrusy, and slightly sweet scent due to the dragonfruit and Vitamin C in the mask. It feels like a treat for your skin whenever I apply it, which is also partially why I like it so much.

When I first applied this, my skin gave this tingly feeling and I noticed that the mask sort of made my skin look ‘pinker’ for the first 5-10 minutes after washing it off. I freaked out because I thought the mask was irritating my skin, but I think the aftermath was due to a combination of the exfoliation and the pink colour. I did leave the mask a little longer than I should have, which is why now I usually leave it on for a maximum of 15 minutes before washing it off.

As for its effects, I would say this mask does brighten up my skin. My skin does feel clearer and smoother after using it 1-2 times a week. However, if you have sensitive skin, I suggest not to use this because the walnut component can really damage your skin.

Drink Up 10-Minute Hydrating Mask: I first encountered this mask when it was advertised by Andrea Chong, a local influencer here. I loved how this mask was perfect for daytime use. The premise of this is really all in the title - put on the mask for 10 minutes, and gain instant hydration for the next 24 hours. According to her, it’s great when you are working in the day and you need a pick-me-up, especially when you’re in an air-conditioned office all the time. Plus, the tube is sturdy and really easy to carry out, so that’s perfect for someone like me who always wants to mask on the go.

This mask also smells very nice - it has a sweet apricot scent that is not too overpowering, and it has a thicker texture as compared to the Dragonfruit mask. This mask definitely feels a lot heavier on the skin, which might be a little uncomfortable when wearing it. My biggest gripe with this would be that it settles into a white translucent film on my face, which looks like a moisturiser but not at the same time. But after 10 minutes though, my skin does indeed feel a lot more hydrated. I have relatively dull and dry skin, especially when I am tired, so this works wonders for me when I need a refresh.

Origins is really killing it with their masks. Apart from their masks, I am also using their Original Skin Matte Moisturiser with Willowherb, and I have also tried their Rose Retexturizing Clay Mask, and both of these products are just elevating Origins into one of my favourite skincare brands. I am particularly impressed with how their masks smell so good and are in line with the ingredients used because it really feels like you’re using something that is rooted in these natural products. It might not necessarily be 100% natural, but at least I don’t feel like I’m dumping a ton of chemicals on my face.

Masking for me is always more about the experience than its effects, so I pay more attention to these details (smell, texture, application, aftereffects) because they affect the way I feel during masking. I usually do a mask at night to relax me before bed, so it’s important for me to use masks that are easy and relaxing. (Side note: this is why I never do chemical treatment masks i.e. Sunday Riley’s Good Genes because I spend more time worrying about the tingling in my face than actually relaxing myself).

I would definitely recommend these products. Origins is surprisingly quite affordable considering they are retailing in Sephora, and if you use these 1-2 times a week, they do last quite a while. In fact, you can probably nab their starter kits, which are a good way to get into the brand and to discover what you prefer without having to spend a bomb on skincare. I got the Original Skin set previously, and it was such a deal because it came with a large-sized moisturiser, the mini Rose mask, mini cleansing jelly, and a mini serum. So yes! If you don’t want to invest so much in an expensive mask, please do try out their starter kits - they will not disappoint.

Elizabeth De La Piedra, Photographer

“I tell people I’m a child of the world. My parents are from Peru and that’s where I’m from, but when I was two we moved to Australia. I’m a Chicagoan now—I’ve been living in the States for seven or eight years—so, I have a crazy accent. I learned English watching 90210. [As a kid] I was bossy and I knew I wanted to be an artist. I would draw and paint, and I was always working on getting my drawings to scale, so I would take photos of what I wanted to draw to help with that. That made me think photography was more sustainable as a career—more technologically advanced. I really got into it when the internet began, when I was 12 or 13, and started blogging. At that age I didn’t know what I was doing—I was taking photos of my friends or of myself, and then I was using [Microsoft] Paint as my Photoshop. After high school I went to college for a little bit, but then I dropped out because I wanted to party. I worked in retail for a year before I re-applied to school and studied photography.

When I was 24 I moved from Sydney to Chicago because of my husband—I met him on MySpace. I may or may have not slid into his DMs. He’s a musician—he started a DJ group called Flosstradamus—and after I met him online he went on tour in Australia. We didn’t take it seriously until one day we did. Once you know, you know. I look back at it now, and if my daughter had done the same thing to me I would’ve been shitting myself. I spent a lot of time wondering if I was doing the right thing—the whole concept of moving for a man is gross. But I felt something special, and I didn’t want to spend my whole life wondering what if. So I moved to Chicago, then New York, and interned at Ryan McGinley, Magnum, and Chris Buck. I came back to Chicago and got married and had babies. I love it here. There’s something about the people in the Midwest—they’re really nice, they’re polite, they’re lovely. My life is so different now. I partied a lot in Australia… [Laughs] It’s the culture. The clubs were open really late, like until 6AM, and you have a lot of energy when you’re 19. I used to be one of those little girls who’d DJ at the bars, and stuff like that. In Chicago, I don’t really go out so much, mainly because I’m so tired these days with the kiddos. We do go to dinners and stuff. I love Café Marie-Jeanne. It’s a super cozy French place, and it’s really decadent and delicious. And I love all the Peruvian restaurants here—Peruvian food is flame!

When I’m getting ready the first thing I do is lock my door—no one’s allowed to come in. I’ll have a smoke, light a candle, and put on my true crime podcast—always. Right now my favorites are Generation Why and The Slow Burn. I have an outfit for everything. I’m like, ‘Golfing? Got you. Jury duty? Got you.’ So, I’ll get my outfit out, and then I’ll do my makeup. I use a brown liner on my eyes and to line my lips. My NYX one is my favorite. I love to line my lips—I’m a Latina, it’s a thing. For my cheeks I use Cloud Paint—a mixture of Dawn and Haze. I don’t go anywhere without blush, I look dead. I’ve really been feeling pearlescent colors, especially pearlescent lilacs. I’ll put Glossier Lidstar in Fawn and Lily on my eyelids, and a Sephora eye crayon in Lilac Shimmer is the base. Today I’m wearing Stretch Concealer, and I use my fingers to go under my eyes and around my mouth, where any uneven skin colors are. Then I mix Glossier Skin Tint in Dark with Giorgio Armani Luminous Silk Foundation—it makes it a little bit darker and I get a bit more coverage. After that I will put the Pat McGrath Skin Fetish Highlighter on the tops of my cheekbones, my brow bone, and the tip of my nose. Heavy eyebrows don’t look good on me, so I try to make it subtle. I use Boy Brow in Clear first, and then I color in my little spots with the Brown. MAC’s Prep and Prime setting spray helps everything settle and it makes my makeup look like skin, as opposed to something sitting on my skin. Then I always finish with Wowder in my t-zone. I don’t wear bronzer—sometimes I put the Haloscope in the bronzer color on the bottoms of my cheekbones to create a little depth. And then I use Lash Slick or Benefit They’re Real Mascara. Today I’m wearing Lash Slick because I’m wearing bright shadow and I don’t want my lashes to look too thick. I just love looking super natural, and taking everything I’ve got and turning it all the way up, so people are like, ‘Wow, what did you do?’ And I’m like, ‘Nothing!’ [Laughs] I used to do red a lot, and I’ve been doing really dark red verging on black lately. There’s Cyber from MAC, which is like a black-purple, and I have this really cool brown MAC called Photo. When you have brown skin, you have to be careful of the browns that you use because they can bring out different uneven tones. And then they can also make your teeth look yellow.

My skin’s really dry and porous, so I do a lot of exfoliating and cleansing. I use this Probiotic Tula stuff—it’s really gentle, and it maintains moisture but gets the oily stuff too. That one is followed by my Face Hero Oil by Go-To, which is an Australian brand. It’s mixed with a lot of good stuff like rosehip and jojoba oil. Once that sinks in, I put on either this Anti-Aging Night Moisturiser or this Tula one. I also use the Priming Moisturizer Rich. I use so much moisturizer. And then 50-plus SPF from Supergoop every day. I just got a Pixel facial, and I’m obsessed with that. I call it Black Mirror beauty because it’s just so extreme and out-of-control wild. It’s a laser, and they numb your face with lidocaine, and then they’ll pass the laser, which is like a little pixel point, across your entire face. That little point is like a little burn on your face. Then you’re covered in these burns, and they turn into tiny scabs, and the scabs fall off with new collagen. You have four or five days of downtime, so if you work from home it works, thank god. It’s actually not even the most brutal one, but it was really scary! It’s my face! My husband would look at me and just burst out laughing because I looked like a smashed crab or something. But it was so worth it. I went to Natural Beauty Med Spa. It is really expensive, so it’s a once a year thing. They have payment plans as well, if you really want it. After the treatment you need to put a lot of moisture into it, so Aquaphor, Cetaphil cream, and then after that just keep moisturizing and using sunscreen like there’s no tomorrow. And hats—you have to be out of the sun for eight weeks, so better to do it in the wintertime. On the other hand, a lo-fi thing I love to do is the Aztec Clay Mask—I mix it with apple cider vinegar. It gets rid of all the dead skin and it makes me feel younger. Then just any moisturizing mask—I’ve been using this Bliss one that’s honey, and it’s been really nice.

For my hair, I need a lot of moisture because it’s so coarse and curly. I started going gray when I was 15, so every three weeks I dye it. I also trim it every three months religiously—I go to Spoke and Weal in Chicago. They’re great for curly hair and embracing your curls. I like to use natural-based products like Aveda because they smell so good. I love the shampoo and conditioner Be Curly—I’ll put the Damage Remedy in first, and then it depends on how curly I want my hair. This is my everyday mousse, the Phomollient, and for extra curl I’ll use the Texture Tonic or Style Prep. For flyaways, I use Bumble and Bumble’s Invisible Oil and maybe the Control Force Hairspray on top to calm everything down. Especially from all the dyeing, I have to keep moisture in it so it doesn’t get too wild.

It gives me so much happiness to look down and have nice nails. I have acrylics, and I get them filled every two to three weeks. It’s something I look forward to—I never could afford it for the longest time—and it’s the extra touch on my outfits. I go to Asia Nails. I always get long almond and they’re always red. For my body, there’s a body oil by Go-To that smells amazing. Oil just makes you look really sexy. And I use Body Hero too, that’s a good one. And for fragrance, summer-y smells are nostalgic to me. I bought Margiela Beach Walk, which literally smells like sunscreen. My nighttime fragrance depends on how I feel. My favorite is Byredo 1996. I always like sexy, woody smells, so that one’s perfect for me. During the day I’ll use either Glossier or Margiela, but at night it’s woody, musky stuff.

When I get home I don’t do the whole routine. I usually do a wipe if I can—I just use my kids’ baby wipes because they’re around. I also like the coconut wipes from Walgreens—you know, they have the carrot ones and the cucumber ones? The coconut ones are the only ones that are moisturizing, and they don’t sting my face. If I’m not being lazy, I take my eye makeup off with the Lancôme Bi-Facil Eye Makeup Remover. I’ll do a cleanse, and then I’ll always do the oil and maybe the night cream, just so it can work for me.”

So, it’s officially Summer here in Germany and we are all flaunting our bikini bodies, swimming like fishes, enjoying the seasonal sunny weather and eating different flavours of ice cream daily. Lecker!

But while we are at it, we should never forget to give our skin the Tender loving care she deserves. For this reason, I will be introducing you to the products I use this summer which was a gift from the best multinational online pharmacy widely famous for selling quality cosmetics, vitamins, beauty products and non prescription drugs : NEWPHARMA

Few days ago, I received a summer box from Newpharma and the box contained 9 lovely products which have become my summer holy grail. These products were selected specifically for my skin type and I am happy to announce to you that they have products for ALL skin types and very affordable as well.

MY SUMMER BEAUTY PRODUCTS

Micellar water from Eucerin

This product is a necessity for all ladies because it contains some cleansing properties which helps to remove every trace of makeup from your face without drying out or irritating your skin. So instead of using make up removal pads which are always scented and dry out the face afterwards, why not invest in this product? I used this cleansing fluid to get rid of my makeup on Friday night and I was wowed with how moisturized and clean my face felt afterwards. Get yours here.

Last Friday in Edenkoben, Rheinland Pfaly Germany.

Shower gel from La Roche-Posay

I noticed that little goes a long way with this shower gel. It lathers so well and the smell on the other hand is heavenly! This shower gel is ‘dope’ and I will give it a 5 star rating because the fragrance lingers for a long time. Who needs a perfume after using La Roche- Posay? Get one tube at a discounted price here.

Deodorant from Rogé Cavaillès

I can confidently say this without bating my eyelids: ‘THIS IS NOT YOUR REGULAR DEODORANT’. Roge Cavailles Dermato deodorant is one of the products that when your discover, you cant help but give it glowing reviews. This deodorant contains no aluminium and when I sprayed this under my armpit, I noticed that it didn’t streak down, rather it dried up immediately.

The downside is minimal white patches under my armpit, but it is barely noticeable. This is a perfect gift idea for your girlfriends or sisters this summer and the packaging is so luxurious. Get yours here.

Cleansing gel from Uriage

I have a love/hate feeling with this cleansing gel. It really purified my skin and gave me a ‘clean’ feeling but, I noticed that it dried out my skin afterwards. However, I think it will benefit people with oily skin so much , but please make sure you use a serum or moisturizer afterwards. I used the Vichy 89 moisturizer afterwards and my face felt so soft and fresh. Click here to get yours.

Thermal water spray from Vichy

I was skeptical at first because I had never used Thermal water before, but this is now my holy grail. As a girl with acne-prone skin, I was worried that the 15 minerals in this thermal water will give me fresh breakouts, but I was wrong. It made my skin softer and keeps breakouts at bay.

I use it before applying my Vichy 89 moisturizer and also before applying my makeup. It sets the makeup up so well and it is very refreshing to the skin especially when it is refrigerated. I love this product and I will recommend to everyone regardless of your skin type. Always make sure you seal in the moisture afterwards with Vichy serum. Get yours here.

Moisturising booster from Vichy

This product has very high concentration of Vichy Thermal mineralizing water. Vichy Mineral 89 is a combination of serum and moisturizer in one tube. I love this product because it is non- greasy and very lightweight. It contains NO oil, parabens, alcohol, fragrance etc. Infact, what you see is what you get. This product is suitable for all skin types and I have nothing bad to say about it. Get yours here.

Anti dark circles care product from Remescar

My husband and I used this product together and I can say that this anti dark circles cream works like magic. It makes all your dark circles disappear in less than 2 minutes. Remescar anti dark circle cream tightens, brightens and fades wrinkles in your eyes region. Splurge on this eye cream now and thank me later!

I usually apply eye cream with my pinky finger because the eye area is so delicate and using the thumb or the index finger might exert lots of pressure on the region. The downsides includes:

1. It leaves chalky residue when the product dries off.

2. It contains so little product and is somewhat expensive but then, little goes a long way.

This is a perfect gift idea for your friends and even parents who have bags under their eyes. Check it out here.

Also, I received Sample moisturizing cream from Clinique and Sample body lotion from Château Rouge.

I am not really gushing over these products because I got them for free because I wouldn’t endorse anything if they don’t work. So if you really want a ‘Beyonce’ skin (a very supple and clear skin) then visit NEWPHARMA.DE and please don’t forget to share your experience with me (whether good or bad).

Please let me know your thoughts below.

Thank you NEWPHARMA.DE for these gifts

Visit www.newpharma.de to buy your original skin products!

BEAUTY PRODUCTS YOU SHOULD BE USING THIS SUMMER- NEWPHARMA SUMMER BOX So, it's officially Summer here in Germany and we are all flaunting our bikini bodies, swimming like fishes, enjoying the seasonal sunny weather and eating different flavours of ice cream daily.

New Post has been published on Vintage Designer Handbags Online | Vintage Preowned Chanel Luxury Designer Brands Bags & Accessories

New Post has been published on https://vintagedesignerhandbagsonline.com/sali-hughes-the-50-best-ethical-beauty-buys-fashion/

Sali Hughes: the 50 best ethical beauty buys | Fashion

A few months ago, I decided to write a column on the best beauty products for vegans, and soon realised that one column wasn’t going to cut it: I probably had enough for 30. The cruelty-free (no animal testing), vegetarian (no byproducts of animal slaughter) and vegan (no animal ingredients at all) beauty market has exploded in recent years.

Previously, vegans were barely catered for, with some uninspiringly packaged cold-pressed face oil and lavender everything. In much the same way as vegetarians are always presumed to want mushroom risotto, vegans were expected to want to smell like an airing cupboard pomander. But nowadays even the large beauty companies are releasing exceptionally good vegetarian and vegan products. This is driven not only by a surge in young people becoming vegan (some 542,000 British people aged 15 or over now describe themselves as such, up from 150,000 in 2006), but by everyday consumers who broadly agree that the harming of animals in the pursuit of beauty is pretty indefensible.

Which isn’t to say the situation is simple. Any beauty product bought in the UK is by definition cruelty-free: animal testing for cosmetic use in the EU has been banned since 2013; and it’s illegal to sell cosmetic products within the EU that have been, or that contain ingredients, newly tested on animals (clearly some everyday ingredients were tested on animals aeons ago, and one can’t change that now).

The issue of cruelty-free becomes more complicated when brands enter foreign markets. Animal testing remains legal in the US and Australia, although most major brands there have long since chosen not to do it. The bigger concern, though, is China, where animal testing is required by law for all cosmetics sold on its soil. Nothing on the list on the following pages sells in China, which is why they can truly be called “cruelty-free”. Thankfully, transparency of policy and ingredients is improving (although the misinformation and inconsistency is alarming), and after a number of backlashes against leading brands, multinational corporations are learning the hard way that consumers, whether vegan, vegetarian or not, broadly expect cruelty-free and vegan products to remain that way, however keen shareholders are to expand into China.

Overleaf is my final selection, though I was so spoilt for choice that I could easily have doubled it without compromise. In the end, my picks were chosen to reflect what a diverse and exciting market this has become, from luxury vegan foundations to a 100% vegan high street chemist skincare line. It is entirely possible to maintain your principles without sacrificing either luxury or performance.

Top vegetarian picks

Liz Earle Hand Repair, £10.50

With the exception of beeswax, propolis and manuka honey, none of the ingredients in this range are animal-derived, making it suitable for vegetarians. I have singled out this brilliant hand cream because it is one of the few to moisturise thoroughly, while leaving an ungreasy, matte finish. I can open the bathroom door without sliding off the handle.

Marks & Spencer Formula Absolute ultimate sleep cream, £22

Every product in M&S’s own-brand beauty range is suitable for vegetarians, and much of it is vegan-friendly, too; but nothing boasts as devoted a following as this clinically proven, independently tested night cream for all skin types. M&S can barely keep it in stock. It is a rich but ungreasy night-time moisturiser, to be massaged in post-cleanse, following serum, to comfort skin and give it a well-rested look.

Body Shop camomile gentle eye makeup remover, £3

This happens to be vegan, but every product in the Body Shop range is at least vegetarian-friendly, which is especially impressive when you consider there are several thousand of them. This is my favourite. It removes heavy eye makeup with neither effort nor grease; it lifts stains from clothes, carpets and upholstery; it even lifts grease from the hairline, allowing blow-dries to limp through an extra day. Magic.

Mandara Spa Bali Santi indulgent bath and shower cream, £7

I love everything about this brand, which makes affordable luxury bath, shower and body products containing no animal ingredients except beeswax, honey and milk. It also boycotts parabens, mineral oils and skin-drying, environmentally dubious sulphates, all without sacrificing the bubbles and scents I crave. This shower gel is refreshing, floral and coconutty and leaves skin soft, clean and smelling of summer.

RMS Beauty Magic Luminizer, £30

RMS (named after its founder, makeup artist Rose Marie Swift) is little known outside beauty-nerd circles, but those who love it really, really love it. It is too expensive, but its champagne-hued, balmy illuminator is the best if, like me, you favour subtle gleam over disco-ball spangle. Use fingertips to work into cheekbones, between the eyes and on the brow bones when all else has been applied. Every product in this small range is vegetarian, with five suitable for vegans, too.

Marks & Spencer Rosie for Autograph Lipshine, £14

This Cruelty Free International-approved tint (in a solid choice of rose-based shades) makes the perfect starter lipstick for those who fear bold colour. It is moist, sheer and shiny, but neither sticky nor too muted. It goes on easily, regardless of skill level or access to a mirror: I neatly applied the Blood Roses colour by gazing briefly into a knife.

Childs Farm organic raspberry bubble bath, £3.99

With the exception of its hair conditioner and detangler (which contain honey) and its sunscreen (beeswax), Childs Farm is vegan-friendly. These are gentle products that I routinely give as presents to parents worried about their children’s skin. Time after time, they tell me these are the only lotions, creams and shampoos their kids with eczema or psoriasis can tolerate. The natural smells make them seem fun, not medicinal.

Tata Harper purifying cleanser, £55

There is a lot to love in this 100% vegetarian natural skincare line (much of which is also vegan). I have chosen the cleanser because I’m amazed at how much I love it. Facial washes, often moisture-stripping and insufficiently cleansing, are high on my beauty hitlist, but this one can stay. Its soft, creamy formula grips dirt and comforts skin, while fruit enzymes leave my face feeling perkier.

Living Sea Therapy bath soak, £22

If, like me, you are a sucker for a long, luxurious soak, but feel disappointed by how many posher bath products are bubble-free, try this. It contains sustainably harvested, top-quality Cornish sea salt and seaweed, plus environmentally friendly, detergent-free foaming agents that fill the bathroom with the most beautiful, natural orange scent. Everything from this lovely brand is vegetarian-friendly, but this in particular leaves my head clear and my skin soft.

Ilia Multi-stick, £30

Canadian organic makeup line Ilia was born out of founder Sasha Plavsic’s annoyance at the common belief that organic means less effective. Organic ingredients are used wherever possible, a dozen of its small range of products are vegan-friendly and the entire range is suitable for vegetarians. Just dab on cheeks as though marking a bingo card, then tap and rub to blend into a healthy flush. At Last is the perfect white-girl rose, while Cheek To Cheek looks glorious on dark tones (and has clear, vibrant pigment to avoid dullness and ashiness).

Drunk Elephant C-Firma day serum, £70

It seems as though every US beauty nerd is raving about Drunk Elephant; if this serum is anything to go by, they have a point. It is an antioxidant, anti-ageing serum that contains vitamin C (ascorbic acid), ferulic and hyaluronic acids and heaps of gentle oils from the likes of grape and pumpkin. It has a pleasant, moist, slippery formula – I’m able to pop it straight under sunblock, skipping moisturiser altogether – and it doesn’t leave behind any grease. It has made my skin brighter and smoother and I have already bought a top-up.

Best-practice brands

Soap Co black poppy and wild fig hand wash, £12 (£11 for refills)

This non-profit British brand employs a workforce that is 80% blind or disabled to produce a truly superior range of soaps and washes, packaged beautifully (including braille) and priced fairly. Staff are trained to increase their skill set and confidence, with a view to moving into the wider workplace, while those with more limited opportunities are given the security of long-term employment. This project is so much more than soap, but the products are exceptional.

My Trusty sunflower face and body oil, £7.99

Few people realise that the NHS has its own skincare range, never mind that it is available nationwide. My Trusty is a sunflower oil-based line developed by NHS scientists who were dissatisfied with the available skincare products for dry, dehydrated and scarred skin. All the products are clinically proven to help reduce the appearance of scars. Users also report significant benefits for dry, itchy and oily skin, and for those with acne, eczema, psoriasis and rosacea. I have chosen this face and body oil on the basis that it gives a good, smooth, ungreasy finish and plenty of skin-softening moisture, causes no irritation and (as with the entire line) contains no sulphates, parabens or artificial perfumes. It is also cracking value, with all the profit going back into the NHS.

Soaper Duper vanilla shea body wash, £6.50

The most interesting advances in beauty are happening in the high street and budget sector, not on the high-end department store counters. These delicious-smelling washes, lotions and creams contain no microbeads, phthalates, mineral oils, sulphates or parabens, just gentle, plant-derived foaming agents and nut butters, all packaged in satisfyingly chubby pump bottles recycled from plastic milk cartons. The brand has pledged to give at least £150,000 to Water Aid by the end of next year. I use its hand washes almost exclusively, but this body wash, squirted with abandon into a bath, is my Sunday-night treat.

Clean Reserve citron fig, £79

An eco-positive perfumer? I never thought I would see the day. But Clean Reserve is obsessed with making sustainable, animal-friendly fragrances that people want to wear. The attention to detail is extraordinary. The alcohol is derived from corn and carried in an aloe vera base to avoid drying or irritating the skin; all the fragrances come in recycled and recyclable packaging; and the manufacturing process is powered by solar energy. None of this is to the detriment of the perfumes. Citron fig is my favourite: bright and summery. As the day wears on, expect a warming ginger note, spicy cardamom (which stops it from being too daytime) and a cheerful spike of mint. Lovely.

Lush Ultrabland cleanser, £7.95

Lush does much more than boycott animal testing; it has been campaigning against it for decades. The company sources all of its (vegetarian-friendly) ingredients ethically, paying suppliers fairly for their environmentally sound ingredients (which are never tested on animals) and ensuring employees throughout the supply chain are working willingly and for fair pay. Its list of ethical, environmental and animal considerations is near-endless, so I will save space by saying this instead: Ultrabland is the best affordable cleanser on the high street. It removes all makeup quickly and gently (although you may need a separate eye makeup remover for heavy shadow and waterproof mascara). Massage in nightly and remove with a clean, hot facecloth. Your skin will look better in a month, if not sooner.

The vegan selection

Mavala Mini Nail Colour, £4.95

I had always loved these dinky nail polishes – then I discovered that they have been vegan for more than five decades. The appeal of Mavala lies in its understanding that while you might wish to own thousands of different shades of nail polish, you are unlikely to finish a big bottle of any of them. These tiny polishes come in every shade and finish, have a good brush and decent longevity, and contain exactly the right amount to leave me wanting more.

Klorane extra-gentle dry shampoo with oat milk, £8

For years, this dry shampoo has featured in every stylist’s kitbag. They love it, because it gives great volume without causing scalps to itch, it doesn’t take excessive rubbing to work off the chalkiness and it smells natural and clean, rather than sweet and synthetic. The rest of the Klorane family, from a fragrant pomegranate shampoo to an excellent eye makeup remover, is vegan, too.

Le Labo Santal 33, £120

Le Labo is vegan across its large range of high-quality perfumes, lotions and candles, but whenever I visit the counter I rarely get past this beautiful, gender-neutral scent that smells of creamy sandalwood, powdery flowers and new leather shoes. If you happen to pass a tester, do give it a chance: the immediate hit is no match for what it becomes an hour or so later.

IT Cosmetics Your Skin But Better CC+ SPF 50+ cream, £30

Finally, a tinted moisturiser with as much coverage as a foundation and as high an SPF as a sunblock. This hero product from the vegan brand has been raved about by practically every beauty editor and blogger this season – and with good reason. The exceptional base blends well, stays put and neither dries out nor oils up the skin. Even the dated packaging adds to its charm. It is with great relief that I hear new owner L’Oréal intends to keep IT’s ethical standards high.

Barry M Dazzle Dust, £4.59

It is gratifying to discover that one of Britain’s most iconic bargain brands has among the most transparent animal-welfare policies and simplest labelling systems. I wish luxury houses would deign to watch and learn. The 80% of Barry M products that are vegan are marked with a green badge, while the rest (vegetarian, but containing beeswax) are not. The company demands yearly written declarations from suppliers and works on animal welfare initiatives. It also makes the best budget glitter in the business and flogs it for less than a fiver. The endlessly cheering Dazzle Dust comes in an array of colours that change seasonally – I love Petrol Black, smudged over eyeliner (and covering any wobbles in the process).

Zelens Daily Defence sunscreen SPF 30, £55

It may be seriously spendy, but this tube replaces two products. An elegant moisturiser and effective sunscreen in one, it goes straight over serum without greasiness, peeling or stinging, and provides an excellent base for foundation. One of my all-time favourite sunscreens, it is vegan and contains no parabens, should you happen to be concerned about them (broadly speaking, I’m not).

Urban Decay 24/7 eye pencil, £15.50

When L’Oréal acquired Urban Decay and attempted to take it into the Chinese market, where animal testing is a legal requirement, there was such uproar that the brand swiftly changed its mind. Animal welfare was a founding principle of this excellent brand. Click on any product on the Urban Decay website and you will see immediately whether it is vegan; gratifyingly, 32 of the 41 shades of these eye pencils (which are the smoothest, boldest, coolest and longest-lasting) are. More and more products are undergoing conversion.

Aesop post-poo drops, £20

There were so many worthy options from this all-vegan (with the exception of natural-bristled shaving brushes) Australian brand that I went for novelty and originality. Post-poo drops serve exactly the purpose one would imagine and they work brilliantly. Simply squeeze a couple of drops of this essential-oil blend into the toilet basin to deodorise the room and make it smell of orange zest. The stylish and weirdly covetable glass bottle raises so many eyebrows and smiles that I routinely bring one for dinner hosts instead of wine. Invariably, they love it and vow to replenish when empty (which takes months).

Nailberry L’Oxygéné nail polish, from £14.50

One of the coolest, most coveted luxury brands in nailcare is also vegan-friendly. Each of the 48 shades in Nailberry’s Peta‑certified L’Oxygéné range is long-wearing, halal-certified and free from alcohol, parabens, DBP, toluene, camphor, formaldehyde, xylene, ethyl tosylamide, triphenyl phosphate, animal derivatives and gluten. Highlights are Rouge, a perfect specimen of classic Hollywood red, and Viva La Vegan, a sludgy summer khaki that looks wonderful against denim and sandals. There are no duds here.

Vita Liberata Body Blur Instant HD, £29.49

Without question the most-used body makeup in my kit, this adds realistic colour, camouflages veins, scars, signs of poor circulation and blotches, and creates the impression of smoother, silkier skin. It is not cheap, but a little goes a long way (and all but one of Vita Liberata’s products – the night moisture mask – are vegan-friendly). Indispensable for anyone keen to show some skin.

Real Techniques brushes, from £7.99

Vegan brushes must be made from synthetic, rather than natural, bristles. The affordable synthetics of yore, while fine for creams and lotions, were useless for powdered makeup. The game changed with this range of relatively inexpensive synthetics, which have a soft, plush texture and a lightness of touch, and are accompanied by a series of YouTube tutorials. I love the setting brush for under eyes and I’m rarely without the eye shade and blend duo, but others seem devoted to the Expert Face Brush.

Cover FX illuminating setting spray, £22

It was hard to pick a favourite product from this brand’s entirely vegan line of hi-tech, racially inclusive complexion makeup (I like brands that pick a speciality and stick with it). However, since I have been using this since Christmas, it seemed only fair that it made the cut. It is a refreshing mist that locks down makeup (face or body) for the night, layering up for greater glow. It works brilliantly, looks great and, like everything from Cover FX, contains no parabens, fragrance, gluten, mineral oil or talc.

The Ordinary Vitamin C suspension 23% + HA spheres 2%, £4.90

What would happen if you took away all the unnecessary skincare ingredients, leaving only those in proper concentrations that were proven to deliver results? And what if you scaled down packaging, making product names transparent and everything vegan-friendly? This was Brandon Truaxe’s thinking when he developed The Ordinary, an affordable skincare brand that has caused the biggest stir in beauty in at least 20 years. There are many commendable products, but I have chosen this anti-ageing serum, since it has a higher concentration of antioxidant vitamin C than many rivals costing five, 10 or even 20 times the price.

Kat Von D Tattoo Liner, £16

Vegan tattoo artist Kat Von D reportedly intends to transition her cruelty-free beauty line to vegan-friendly status by the end of the year. If you are impatient, though, this liner, adored for its durable wear and fine, sharp-tipped brush, is already good to go. The best vegan-friendly liner I have tried, it goes on opaquely and effortlessly, although I don’t support its claim to be waterproof.

Hourglass ambient lighting powder, £40

This range is mostly vegetarian-friendly, while plenty of it – including this, the best product – is vegan. There is at least one shade for everyone: I dust Diffused Light, a red-reducing, skin-brightening yellow, all over my face (either over foundation or just concealer), and Radiant Light, a soft brown, on the cheeks, temples and wherever the sun would hit.

Sleek Blush, £4.99

Sleek is a cruelty-free brand that has pledged not to sell in China until the country changes its laws on animal testing. This is China’s loss, because Sleek’s makeup is among the best ever sold on the high street. Its forte is eyeshadow (peerless colour payoff in its price bracket) and blusher, the latter being vegan. The shade choice is good, but Rose Gold is particularly flattering on everyone and is the spit of Nars’s Orgasm.

St Tropez gradual tan tinted lotion, £15

I don’t know why I was surprised to learn that Britain’s most popular tanning brand is vegan, but then I’m someone on whom self-tan usually disappears without a trace. This gradual tanning lotion is a notable exception. It gives good moisture, an instant bronze tint and a deeper, but still realistic, tan in just a couple of applications. My advice is to spend extra cash on the brand’s mitt: you get a much smoother, more even application and no orange palms.

e.l.f. B Bare total face makeup palette, £9

I have been waiting years for this excellent, all-vegan, bargain brand to launch in the UK, having feverishly stocked up whenever in the US. All the palettes are great and the primers are a dead ringer for premium brands; but this palette for pale skin – containing bronzer, highlighter and two cheek colours – is cleverly curated and more restrained than comparable products on the high street.

Pixi Glow Tonic, £18

About 50 products in Pixi’s relatively small makeup and skincare line are vegan, including Caroline Hirons’ excellent Double Cleanse and this, its best bargain (the bottle is around two and a half times bigger than most). It is a liquid exfoliant (ie the only kind of skin toner worth a damn), containing alpha hydroxy acid to deflake and brighten dull skin and soften the appearance of fine lines. After a proper cleanse, saturate a cotton pad with Glow Tonic and sweep all over the face.

Sam Farmer teen skincare, from £4.49

As a father of teenagers, Sam Farmer was horrified at the sexualised branding, gender stereotyping and cynical marketing of toiletries aimed at young people. Instead of writing a furious letter, he retrained as a cosmetic scientist and made his own range. My sons and all my friends’ teens love this range for its fair prices, cool, minimal packaging and fresh, unobtrusive fragrances. Every product in the lineup is free of animal ingredients, which, given that almost half of vegans are aged 15 to 34, seems commercially smart as well as ethical.

Illamasqua Radiance Veil, £34

Illamasqua is one of the largest cruelty-free brands, but fans may not realise that more than 90 of its products are vegan, too. It was hard to pick a favourite – Beyond Powder, one of the best highlighters I have used, came close – but in the end I plumped for this glow-giving primer, which, as well as providing a smooth, long-lasting base for foundation, looks wonderful when worn with a little concealer and powder. It is perfect for dull or sallow complexions.

Niod copper amino isolate serum 1%, £38

My colleagues rave about vegan brand Niod, but I have had limited success with many of its skincare products. The exception is this, which works a treat. The unorthodox idea is not to tackle symptoms of skin ageing directly, but rather to keep skin in a heightened state of self-repair. You mix together the serum and “activator”, then apply straight after cleansing. I have found it particularly effective on visible pores around the nose and chin, on uneven texture and in brightening dullness, but others report all manner of skin-improving capabilities. There is now a more concentrated (5%) version, but it costs a small fortune; you will probably find this one sufficient.

Collection Lasting Perfection concealer, £4.19

Another high street brand that hides nothing from its consumers. The website lists every product it makes and explains clearly which are vegan, which are vegetarian and which are cruelty‑free. This, its best, is vegan-friendly (and racially inclusive). Just dab the liquid directly from the wand on to dark circles and blemishes, then tap with your middle finger to blend. You will find it behaves much like luxury concealers at five times the price.

Vintner’s Daughter active botanical serum, £175

I was determined to hate this face oil. It is exorbitantly priced and its marketing is based on the kind of “no chemicals, no toxins” message that I find enraging. But, oh, it is so lovely on the skin (even spotty types). Just one six-drop application of this 22-oil, vegan-friendly blend before bed (after any anti-ageing serums and before or instead of cream) revives and moisturises the complexion and imparts visible glow by morning. It is beautiful, if way too expensive.

Axiology vegan lipstick, £24

Vegan lipstick is hard to find, because ingredients such as beeswax, lanolin, cholesterol and collagen are so often used to add comfort, slip, moisture and plumpness.Here, though, is a wonderful example of how it can be done. The formula is silky, comfy and long-lasting. The shades (I recommend Worth, a vintage-looking red) are every bit as cool and bold as those of the department store luxury brands. The packaging makes it a beautiful gift, too.

Starskin After Party brightening bio-cellulose second-skin face mask, £8.50

There is something hugely satisfying about a one-hit sheet mask. This one, from the mostly-vegan Starskin portfolio, is among my favourites. There is no scrimping on ingredients here: the mask positively drenches the face in reviving serum, which leaves skin brighter, perkier and healthier-looking (in fact, you will probably have enough gunk left in the sachet for tomorrow). Wonderful as a hangover cure or an in-flight treatment.

Infuse My. colour wash, £13.95

I’m hugely impressed with these colour-refreshing shampoos. Simply, they work. Copper brightens red hair beautifully, while Platinum strips brassiness from blond and grey hair and brightens any white and silver; the Gold shade glosses my hair like nothing else. All five options are vegan and none contains sulphates, silicones, parabens or toxic dyes.

Superdrug B. Pure micellar water, £4.99

I give huge props to Superdrug for making its entire B. skincare and makeup line vegan-friendly, particularly this makeup remover, which is one of the few of its kind not to make me break out after several days’ continued use. It swipes away heavy foundation and mascara in seconds, making it an ideal first step before a deeper cleanse with a balm or oil (there is no substitute, long-term). It is also brilliant for quick makeup changes, correcting smudges and errors and, dare I say it, when you are too tired and emotional for a thorough night-time routine. Keep next to your bed with the Alka-Seltzer.

Too Faced Brow Quickie, £17

I was put off slightly by this cruelty-free brand’s teenybopper packaging, but with perseverance I have found some corking products. Everyone raves about the superior lengthening capabilities of Better Than Sex mascara, but my personal favourite is Brow Quickie, a fibre-filled brow gel in a perfect, suits-everyone taupe that thickens and holds brows in place better than anything else I have tried. It is only one of the 50 or so vegan products in the Too Faced portfolio.

Kypris Moonlight Catalyst, £60.50

My issue with many of the natural, organic skincare brands I see is that, while they are often lovely in terms of smell and texture, they don’t seem to do much for their high price tag. Kypris is an exception. Vegan, organic, sustainably and locally sourced, devoid of any petrol-industry byproducts and synthetic ingredients, its kinder beauty credentials are flawless. The products themselves are just as impressive. This, my favourite, is a night-time serum that uses pumpkin enzymes to gobble away dead skin and calm irritation. It gives great glow and leaves skin exceptionally soft and smooth. It is also very good on spotty or upset-looking skin. It is expensive, yes, but comes in a larger bottle than most in its category.

Pai Copaiba deep cleanse AHA mask, £30

There is an assumption in beauty that spotty skin must be hardy enough to withstand chemical torture in the name of treatment, but this is simply not true. Pai skincare (certified by the Soil Association and the Vegan Society) is unusual in its understanding that oily, congested skin can be as sensitive and easily upset as any other type. This mask is a great example of how it is possible to get kind and hardcore in one tube. Smooth all over just-cleansed skin (I take it right under the eyes, but not over the eyelids), leave for 10 minutes, then buff off with a hot facecloth.

The Ordinary Serum Foundation, £5.70

Another entry for this new but influential, eco-friendly, vegan brand. It is the best budget foundation I have ever used. Yes, there is a six-week waiting list and, yes, there are few bricks-and-mortar stores allowing you to try before you buy, but, at a little over a fiver, how much can one complain? Besides, distribution and stock problems are likely to vanish soon: Estée Lauder has just invested in The Ordinary’s parent company, Deciem.

Tarte Maracuja creaseless concealer, £21

There are lots of vegan products within this natural-ingredient-based, animal-friendly brand and I was delighted to find this old favourite among them. It is a waterproof, racially inclusive coverup that is brilliant for hiding birth marks, dark circles, melasma and scars, and any blemishes on menopausal skin prone to hot flashes. It blends well with fingers or a buffing brush and is so concentrated the little tube lasts for ages.

Rahua shampoo and conditioner, £30 each

On paper, Rahua looks like the kind of brand I avoid. It is expensive and comes with a too-familiar marketing message: beauty professionals get out of the rat race and discover charity work, which takes them to the Brazilian rainforest, where they notice that women have exceptionally soft, glossy hair and discover a native wonder oil, rahua. I have heard 100 variations on this theme, but two things set Rahua apart: activism and product efficacy. Everything is vegan and sustainable, and the brand has reinvigorated the local trade of rahua oil. Every organic, natural and petrochemical-, silicone- and sulphate-free product is lovely, but the original shampoo and conditioner are the holy grail for dry, thick, previously unmanageable hair.
