Winter Nourishment from Tropic Skincare
To begin with, I want to start with the brush I received, as I love makeup brushes and this one is now a new favourite that I will be working into my everyday beauty regime (look out for it in my makeup tutorials very soon, as it'll be making an appearance)!
Tropic Skincare have a wonderful range of vegan brushes and beauty tools and I received their gorgeous and oh so soft Eco Artist Powder Brush which is perfect for applying your powder make-up products. I think it will work wonderfully for powder foundation to set my base, as well as bronzer and blush as it's the perfect rounded shape for such make-up applications. The brush has vegan fibres and the brush handle is made out of wood. It is certainly pone to add to you essentials makeup bag and for travelling it is so ideal, as it's one of those go to brushes that you can literally use for so many powder-based products.
Love Your Lips
As the cold weather sets in, lips can become so sensitive to the sudden change and can easily go from nourished to dry if they are not cared for correctly, with lots of rich balms. Luckily, Tropic Skincare know just how to treat your pout and have created the Award Winning Lip Fudge which is a Plumping Lip Conditioner aka Winter Lip Care Essential!
Available in two beautiful pink shades and one clear variety which I opted for, this softening and plumping lip conditioner is a handbag essential, especially during the winter. It also smells absolutely lovely, sweet yet subtle. I would recommend using it during the day as well as before you go to bed for ultimate overnight lip moisturising.
"Dry, cracked and chapped lips are intensely hydrated with this incredibly restorative, deliciously minty balm. Bursting with 26 lip-loving plant extracts to smooth and moisturise, this rich, creamy balm provides a subtle lip colour and plump, super soft lips in an instant."

Skin Purification Saviour
If you sometimes suffer from the odd blemish or are breakout-prone, then let me introduce you to your skin's new best friend! Pure Lagoon blemish prevention serum has been an important part of my skincare routine this year and that's because it has a gentle yet very powerful natural formula that will positively clear your skin and help you to systematically manage breakouts, instead of feeling at their mercy.
Firstly, it is a light-weight, blemish banishing serum. It feels air-like and soothing on the skin, not cloying like some products which can feel heavy during the day.
It can be used on specific areas or all over for a light yet hydrating skin satiating treatment. It essentially has the power to help transform oily and blemish-prone complexions as it is enriched with prebiotics to give your skin's defences a helping hand. This innovative serum is like food for your skin, to nourish it from the inside out!
The Superhero Ingredients
All of these come together to create a serum which is effective at stopping blemishes before they even happen. This product also smells so refreshing and clean, I absolutely love it!

How To Use Pure Lagoon
You only need a few drops and they are easily patted into the skin and best followed by your moisturiser, which brings my to....
Welcome to Your New Favourite Moisturiser: Skin Feast
...Skin Feast. A wonderful moisturiser which I first started using in February this year. I always look for a moisturiser which is actually nourishing and that makes my skin feel supple and hydrated once it's applied. This is exactly what I got by using Skin Feast and from then on it was one of my absolute favourites! This nutrient-rich daily moisturiser helps to protect and nourish your skin for an incredibly soft, bright and healthy complexion. It is also brimming with goodness and includes 20 different fruit and flower extracts which I think is incredible!
With oh so much goodness packed into it, this is the perfect, hydrating match for dry, ageing, dull and sensitive skin, things that are easier to suffer from during the freezing winter months. What I really love about this cream is that it smell incredible (it reminds me of a spa!) and it also absorbs into the skin really easily and feels light yet deeply hydrating. The perfect combination!
Sometimes, your skin can need a bit more of a boost and a more rich consistency moisturiser can be just what your skin is calling out for. For such days, Tropic's Skin Dream Age Defying Firming Cream Concentrate is here to help. Specifically formulated for older skin or skin which needs a thorough nourishing, Skin Dream is a luxurious, skin-plumping formula which is Tropic Skincare's most powerful age-defying treatment yet and it has the power to boost your skin's elasticity too! For the colder months where the elements will be drying skin out and making it feel more sensitive, this is a fantastic go-to cream to keep skin in tip top condition, as well as make it look and feel its best.
Overnight Skincare Magic
If you're a fellow skincare lover or know somebody who is, you'll already know that different times of the day call for different skincare intervention. At night time when you're makeup free, it's easier to wear a more nourishing cream as it's not going to effect the longevity of your foundation for example. I think it's a great opportunity to get your skin nourishment in too, as you'll have about 6-8 hours of time where your skin can just absorb all of the benefits of your moisturiser on a deep tissue level (Things have gone 'sciencey'!). For me, Skin Dream is a wonderful overnight option too.
"Supercharged with intelligent plant ceramide complexes and a blend of exotic butters, this moisture replenishing night cream is your key to restorative hydration and true beauty sleep." - Tropic Skincare

Light Up My Life
About a year ago I started to use concealer to add definition to my face when doing my makeup. It's now a step I wouldn't be without and it has quite literally transformed my makeup regime as it leaves me with a flawlessly highlighted base each and every time. If you want to cast light, a lighter shade of concealer in comparison to your base is what you are looking for. I absolutely love Tropic's botanical makeup products and their Light-Diffusing Concealer in the lightest shade 'latte' is a must have makeup bag essential. It is super brightening and also really easy to blend out (I go in with a foundation brush and if necessary, a clean sponge to even it out and make sure it is applied smoothly and with an airbrushed finish). It feels weightless on my skin and honestly, it will make you look radiant and youthful when applied under the eyes, around the contours of your nose, down the bridge of your nose, centre of the forehead and centre of chin. (I know it sounds like a lot but this is what works for a flawless base, if you haven't tried it before definitely give this a go!). Shop the Illuma Light-Diffusing Concealer online
