HUGE BLOG SALE! Nars Guy Bourdin Palette, MAC, Illamasqua, DIOR, Jo Malone etc!

Tuesday, 1 July 2014

Hi everyone. I wanted to do a quick blog sale as I have SO much stuff I never use, particularly after coming to the realisation that actually - blush looks terrible on me! Just a few rules:

- I'm only going to be shipping within the UK for the safety of the items / pricing.
- Postage will be £3.99 so I can ensure they are wrapped properly but if you get more than one item, this will stay the same.
- It will work on a first come, first served basis on comments on the post!
- Payment through PayPal to katherine.parkes@hotmail.co.uk.
- No refunds, all sales are final.

With that all out of the way, here are the items!


Diorskin Nude BB Creme in 001 (RRP £30) - Used three times - £14
Chantecaille Just Skin Tinted Moisturizer in Alabaster (RRP £58) - Used twice - £35

Dior Diorskin Nude Shimmer Instant Illuminating Powder

Monday, 28 January 2013




This was a recent naughty purchase that I decided to reward myself after losing a stone (woohoo!) since I've decided it's a great motivator to purchase something from my wishlist everytime I lose a substantial amount. It's been on my wishlist for ages ever since I saw Tanya Burr use it in some of her videos and fell in love with the way it looked when the light hit! It's my first Dior product and I have to say, I'm extremely impressed.

The powder itself is so finely milled and buttery soft. As you can see from swatches below, it's a lovely light golden shade that blends effortlessly to give an amazing glow. It isn't too glittery, it's more of a sheen across your cheeks and doesn't make me look oily at all, just really lovely and healthy! As always with Dior, the packaging is beautiful and sleek, with a handy decent sized mirror inside for topping up any makeup. The spongey applicator is actually pretty good as far as in-product tools come and works well to dab the product onto your cheekbones without overdoing it.



It's usually about £32, but I purchased mine here from Escentual.com for just under £5 cheaper which I don't think is too bad for 10g of high end product!

Have you tried this? What's your favourite highlighter? :)
