Oh hello there! Nice to see you here on Emtalks! Welcome back! So, today, a beauty post. I’m passionate about a lot of things and beauty happens to be one of those things. I feel like I’ve neglected the beauty side of my blog over the last few weeks and I am so sorry, but fear not, I have rounded up my favourite products to get beautiful, glowing skin and thought I’d share them with you. Grab a cup of something, sit down and let’s chat! I am truly so excited to be sharing this post with you today as it features some of my absolute favourites...
Our skin fixes itself as we sleep, that’s why sleep is so important. Not only is it good for our bodies and minds, but it’s great for our skin too. I’m totally guilty of not getting enough sleep and it’s crazy because the first thing it changes? My skin! When I’m tired, my skin is lack-lustre and it feels heavy and groggy. I’m sure more of you are aware by now but I’ve been using
for longer than I can remember now. You can read my full blog post all about the
for more into, but seriously, this stuff is your new best friend. Pop a drop on before bed and you’ll wake up glowing and rejuvenated. It’s formulated with natural botanicals which work to repair the skin and ‘fake’ 8 hours sleep. I see this as a repairing shot for my skin. Shop
Charlotte Tilbury Overnight Bronze And Glow Mask - This is the mask I’ve been waiting for. Charlotte Tilbury’s Overnight bronze and Glow Mask does exactly what it says: you’ll wake up with the softest, more flawless but natural glow. Charlotte Tilbury is the queen of products for a flawless complexion, so it would be rude not to include her in this blog post. The best thing? This cares for your skin too and keeps you super hydrated throughout the night so it doesn’t have the usual drying effects of fake tan. Shop

Bobbi Brown Illuminating Cheek Palette - Bobbi Brown are seriously killing the beauty game right now with all their amazing new launches. I fell madly in love with this Bobbi Brown palette. Not only is the packaging to die for (bright pink, perfect for Summer) but the palette itself is perfect. It’s compact so you can take it anywhere but you also get an intense bronzer for the best glow ever, a beautiful coral-ish blush for the cheeks and then one with more of a glow, perfect to highlight. I really rate this palette and its been with me everywhere recently! Shop

Clarins Face Contouring Palette - I couldn’t not include this Clarins palette if we’re talking about flawless skin. It truly is incredible, with a highlight, a bronzer and the most flattering blush. I always go for coral blushes but this is a really ‘grown up’ blush. I get so many compliments when I use this. It’s the perfect ‘taxi touch up’ product as you can contour, highlight and glow all in one. This is in my handbag every day. Shop

Hour Glass Ambient Lighting - Everyone adores Hour Glass and theres a reason for that. I first discovered them in Space NK and have been hooked ever since. I definitely blame bloggers for fuelling my Hour Glass addiction, it’s definitely a cult favourite and I can see why. I’d be crazy not to mention their Ambiente Lighting powders in a blog post about glowing skin. They do so many different types but my favourite one is this one, it gives a gorgeous subtle and soft glow, a really nice flush of colour. Say hello to flawless skin. Shop

Use the
Marc Jacobs bronzing brush for the best all over glow. I love this brush so much, the quality of it is amazing and it looks so beautiful!
Clinique Moisture Surge Hydrating Supercharged Concentrate - Clinique Moisture Surge - We all know I’m a sucker for Clinique, definitely one of my all time favourite beauty brands. It was an exciting day then when I heard about the launch of their new moisture surge, a hydrating supercharged concentrate. For me, this is like a power shot in a squirt, one squirt pre-primer and my skin is awake and ready to take on the day. See it as a coffee/energy shot for tired skin. It’s the perfect travel companion, particularly f you’re tired and your skin is dehydrated. Mark my words, this is going to be a best seller. Shop Clinique Moisture Surge.

YSL Touche Eclat Foundation,
Armani Luminous Silk - I bought YSL Touche Eclat years ago when I lived in Canada and if I’m honest, I didn’t fall in love. However, in recent months it’s become a firm favourite. I do like to mix foundations so usually I’ll mix YSL Touche Eclat with either Vichy Dermablend or Armani Luminous Silk. I have to say, these three are my all time favourite foundations and blended together, you just cannot beat it. If you’re after medium coverage and the perfect dewy glow, this flawless foundation mix is for you. For me, Armani and YSL are two brands who champion the dewy, flawless look and their foundations are exceptional, coming from a gal who’s tried and tested all the foundations! I always go back to these.
Tan-Luxe Hydra Mousse - If you’ve been watching my weekly vlogs (if you haven’t please click
here and check them out, it would mean the world to me). You’ll notice I’ve been raving about Tan-Luxe on almost every single one. It’s probably the best fake tan I’ve ever come across and I wish I had the money to buy endless supplies of it. As you can see, this one has run out and I’m pretty devastated. It’s quickly become my holy grail tan and there are a few reasons for that. 1. I hate the smell of fake tan and on application, this doesn’t smell. It does smell when you wake up but just make sure you wash it off. 2. There’s no mess whatsoever with it, it comes out like water, dries instantly (no stickyness whatsoever) meaning you can apply it in the morning and watch it develop as you get on with your day. 3. It makes my face so tanned. I have never come across such an incredible colour on my face. Tan-Luxe seriously gives me the best glow, I don’t need to wear any make up when I’ve got this on. 4. It doesn't transfer, anywhere! You can put this on and sit on the whitest covers and it literally will not transfer. It does always go awful on my hands with it having no colour guide so I need to put a lot less on the hands but on the rest of the body, it looks incredible. This exact one is exclusive to Selfridges and I’m tempted to go and buy every bottle. Shop

Elizabeth Arden Superstart Booster - I have a lot of time for Elizabeth Arden. They’re a brand who have been around for a long long time and there’s a reason women of all ages swear by the brand. The Superstart Skin Renewal Booster helps to restore the healthy look of the skins surface layer and help with repairing and renewing. I like to use this on a morning to boost the results of my skincare and find this almost acts as a primer too. It definitely makes my skin look refreshed all day and glowing.
