YSL Lovenude Lip Blusher Lip Balm and Kiss Shaper Sculpting Lip Liner<\/p>\n

Launching lipsticks with matching liners has been around forever, but I\u2019m enjoying the slight resurgence from leading luxury brands, including YSL<\/a>, with the launch of its Loveshine Nude Lip Blusher Lip Balm (\u20ac44 from Brown Thomas), a soft-blurring balm-like lip colour, and Kiss Shaper Sculpting Lip Liner (\u20ac32 from Brown Thomas). <\/p>\n

Lovenude Lip Blusher Lip Balm is available in an array of shades, they\u2019re soft, buttery and beautifully pigmented \u2013 a true lipstick-balm hybrid. It\u2019s the kind of formula that makes you want to keep pressing your lips together. Many shades appeal, but my personal favourite is No. 6, a rosy mauve-berry pink. I especially like it paired with the Kiss Shaper Sculpting Lip Liner in No. 104, a neutral, rosy brown.<\/p>\n

EYRA Awaken Shampoo and Conditioner \"EYRAEYRA Haircare <\/p>\n

Newly launched by Irish celebrity hairstylist Aidan Darcy, Eyra is, according to Darcy, a haircare line \u201cdeveloped to restore the ritual of haircare, blending high-performance ingredients with a sense of calm and sensory luxury\u201d. Currently, the range encompasses shampoos and conditioners for fine, medium and thick hair \u2013 with more products on the way. Having used Awaken Shampoo and Restore Conditioner (\u20ac38 each from eyrahair.com<\/a>) for fine hair several times, I can confirm I\u2019m a fan. <\/p>\n

They make your hair feel (and look) good. Not stripped, not dry or brittle, and not overly moisturised or weighed down \u2013 instead striking a clean, calm, comfortable balance. The sleek packaging deserves a mention, too \u2013 this is a range that wouldn\u2019t feel out of place on the shelf of a high-end department store. <\/p>\n

CeraVe Suncare\"CeraVeCeraVe Invisible Hydrating Fluid Sunscreen <\/p>\n

Just in time for summer, CeraVe<\/a> has entered the suncare category for the first time.<\/p>\n

The five-product range, priced between \u20ac12 and \u20ac22, covers everything from face and body sunscreen: the Invisible Hydrating Sunscreen SPF30+ (\u20ac22 from Boots) in a decent 75ml tube, to an excellent Invisible SPF50 Sun Stick (\u20ac12), which has now taken up residence in my handbag. It works everywhere \u2013 lips, eyes, cheeks. Ideal for easy top-ups on the go.<\/p>\n

The Invisible Hydrating Fluid Sunscreen SPF50 (\u20ac18.50), also available in a matte version, is equally strong \u2013 and the clean, simple packaging rounds out a range that will undoubtedly find its way onto many a bathroom shelf. <\/p>\n

MAC Cosmetics Studio Fix 24HR Colour Corrector<\/p>\n

Correctors are having a moment again, and MAC Cosmetics is firmly part of it with the Studio Fix 24HR Colour Corrector (\u20ac22 from Brown Thomas).<\/p>\n

Available in six genuinely comprehensive shades \u2013 and credit where it\u2019s due, as many brands stop at a basic pink and peach \u2013 MAC have gone all the way and then some. Shades range from deep violet and mustard to mint green, pink, peach and rich orange. <\/p>\n

These are correctors that take the job seriously: cutting through darkness, counteracting shadows across skin tones, and brightening with ease. The formula is thin and creamy, never cakey, and blends to an almost undetectable finish while still smoothing and evening out the skin. At \u20ac22 each, they\u2019re also well priced.<\/p>\n

Lisa Eldridge Velatura Balm Dewy Lip and Cheek Stick\"LisaLisa Eldridge Velatura Balm Dewy Lip and Cheek Sticks <\/p>\n

I can\u2019t recall a time Lisa Eldridge<\/a> launched a product I didn\u2019t love \u2013 and the same applies to her new Velatura Balm Dewy Lip and Cheek Sticks (\u20ac33 from lisaeldridge.com<\/a>). As beautifully packaged as ever, there are six shades designed to work across all complexions, delivering a cohesive flush of colour on lips and cheeks. The formula is soft and creamy, never sticky, and glides effortlessly on to the skin.<\/p>\n

Of the shades, I\u2019m particularly taken with Meeting The Ex, a hot, blue-toned pink, and Rose Madder, a slightly softer, universally flattering pink that delivers a subtle, healthy-looking hue.<\/p>\n

This week I\u2019m loving … This Works Own Time Eau De Parfum\"ThisThis Works Own Time Eau de Parfum <\/p>\n

Known for their approach to aiding sleep with a range of products from pillow sprays to body lotions, This Works has now entered the perfume category with the launch of Own Time Eau de Parfum (\u20ac95 for 50ml from Avoca). Described by the brand as \u201cthe first luxury neuroscent\u201d, it\u2019s formulated to support the body\u2019s natural transition from day to night. A blend of sandalwood and pink pepper, it\u2019s warm, rich and comforting. <\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"YSL Lovenude Lip Blusher Lip Balm and Kiss Shaper Sculpting Lip Liner Launching lipsticks with matching liners has…\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":392815,"comment_status":"","ping_status":"","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[8],"tags":[1902,93,631,61,60,709,3273],"class_list":{"0":"post-392814","1":"post","2":"type-post","3":"status-publish","4":"format-standard","5":"has-post-thumbnail","7":"category-entertainment","8":"tag-beauty","9":"tag-entertainment","10":"tag-for-you","11":"tag-ie","12":"tag-ireland","13":"tag-magazine","14":"tag-skincare"},"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ie\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/392814","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ie\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ie\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ie\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/2"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ie\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=392814"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ie\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/392814\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ie\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/392815"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ie\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=392814"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ie\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=392814"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ie\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=392814"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
