I really do love the Miners brand; all the products I have
tried so far are just so fun and such good value for money. Recently they sent
me their ‘cheek of it’ collection and I have been using it ever since. The
collection contains a blush, a flirty pink for your cheeks that has an instant
awaken quality. I sometimes use it as a lip colour too and for days when I look
really tired blend a small amount on the inner and outer corners of my eyes to
make them appear more open. The bronzer has a great golden tone to it, the
perfect shade for my skin but darker skins might want a slighter darker colour.
Never the less for me it is just great, easily blendable and long lasting. I
have even been known to use it as an eyeshadow on a few occasions. Finally the
highlighter, a gorgeous champagne gold which is fantastic for cheekbones, under
the eyebrows and the inner corners of eyes. The small size and multiuse of
these makes them perfect for keeping in your handbag for touch ups and those
times when you need emergency makeup.

Billion Dollar Brows £17
Billion Dollar Brows have designed an eyebrow pencil that is
useable no matter what your hair tone and skin colour. At first I was a little
wary that this would be possible so had to give it a try for myself. The first
time I used it I was a bit too heavy handed with it so I ended up with
ridiculously dark brows, my fault for not reading the instructions. On my next
go however I managed to use short light strokes and build up the colour. The
pencil nib its self looks quite dark but if you just use it lightly it only
adds a hint of colour. The more you build up the colour, the darker it gets.
What I found fabulous was that you can outline your brows in a light shade then
go back over them in little strokes so which makes it look so natural. I have a
couple of sparse patches and to be able to fill them in like this with one
brush is really lovely. Billion Dollar Brows indeed.

Elemis Pro-Radiance hand and nail cream £22
I think by now you don’t need reminding of the importance of
moisturing your hands, I mean no one wants to end up with hands like Madonna
right? Not that I don’t Madonna is great, it’s just her hands are a little
scary.
Elemis pro-radiance hand cream is silicon free which means
it absorbs quickly into the skin. It is probably the quickest absorbing hand
cream I have ever used, and I have tested a lot! It’s fragranced with white
flower and it has a very soft scent making it perfect for use throughout the
day.
