Aerin Lipgloss in Shell

Lipgloss has become somewhat a thing for me recently and I have found myself reaching for them more than ever. Something about the glossed look has completely got me and lipgloss applied both alone or on top of a lipstick has become something I currently find myself wearing daily.

My lipgloss of the moment is currently Aerins Shell Lipgloss* from the Seashell Collection and quite frankly, I fell for it the moment I first laid my eyes on it. It's not very often you see as nude a lipgloss available and so I couldn't wait to swatch and it see how it played out. 

Inspired by the beach and swatching as an extremely light Peach toned Beige shade, on the lips this appears pretty much barely there with just a subtle nude tint and a wearable shine finish. I can't get enough of it and find it completely wearable on it's own as well as the perfect product to add a glossed finish to so many of my Nude lipsticks.

The doe foot applicator makes for a very smooth application and with it being a super subtle, sheer shade, not much product or attention is needed at all. For a gloss, I find this extremely comfortable on the lips and don't find that it's too sticky in the slightest. The taste of the product isn't my favourite, as I find it a tiny bit perfumed but it's completely bearable and to be quite honest, with the lovely tint and lovely shine that it provides, I don't think I would stray anyway.

I'm really impressed with this Aerin Shell Lipgloss and love everything from the sleek transparent and Gold packaging to the nude pigment it offers. 

 Available in two nude shades (Shell and Sunset), this Aerin Lipgloss in Shell costs £22 and is available to buy as apart of the limited edition Summer Seashell Collection in John Lewis, Selfridges and Harrods.

Aerin Pretty Bronze Illuminating Powder

I'm an absolute sucker when it comes to both pretty bronze shades and anything related to Estée Lauder, so you can imagine how happy I was when I was introduced to this beautiful Aerin Pretty Bronze Illuminating Powder*. 

Homed in ever such a sweet Pink Pouch and cased in a Gold compact, theres something about this product that had my attention from the offset. Available in two shades; Level 01 and a deeper shade Level 02, Level 01 offers a subtle bronze tone to the skin. On top of my foundation, in daylight, it creates the perfect amount of luminosity and glow although I wouldn't say it adds much colour, nor as much of a sunkissed bronze look as I thought that it would on me. Sitting naturally on the skin and both feeling and looking super soft, it is a lovely product to use, but if you're similar in skin tone to myself, then I imagine the pigmentation of Level 02 would be better as I would say this is more suited for lighter skin tones.

As much as I don't find it offers as much bronzing or colour as I would have liked it to, I do still love to apply it to my cheeks and down my nose to create some natural, subtle looking light and find it a lovely powder product to do so.

Costing £34, this Aerin Pretty Bronze Illuminating Powder is available to buy online and in Selfridges, Harrods and John Lewis.
