God I used to be obsessed with Glossier when it first came out. I even remember getting friends to order it for me and bring it home, every time they went to the US. I nearly lost my mind when they actually released it over here! But now the dust has well and truly settled on that hype… and the beauty market has become a lot more attainable and saturated. which products actually did last the test of time for me?
You Perfume – This is undeniably a great scent. It smells slightly different on everyone, and even now, there’s still nothing like it out there on the market. The packaging is clearly incredible too, and it’s a decent price point for a perfume – though that being said, if it went higher, I may question it. But, this is one I’ve re purchased at least four times, and will continue to do so. I even carry the solid in my handbag, and it’s the one and only solid perfume that I’ve ever found to actually perform like you would expect a perfume to. Can’t rate it more.
Balm Dotcom – Again, this is honestly just a really, really good product. It’s a lip balm, so there’s not masses to say… but the amount of times I’ve re purchased this speaks for itself. I’m an “original” girl myself, with a coconut choice for the summer, but there’s a flavour / scent for everyone – and I’d honestly be lost if these were ever discontinued.
Ultralip – A balm / lipstick hybrid, this is sooooo beautiful. Lucite is my perfect shade, and a shade I’ve searched high and low for. It’s an actual baby pink – not a nude “dressed” as a pink, and makes my lips look incredible. So much so, I shamelessly have one in every handbag.
Hand Cream – As far as hand creams go, this is a bloody good one. STUNNING packaging, but also quite clever, sleek, fits in any bag – and hydrates, really, really well. Oh and it also smells like the You fragrance, so in my opinion, this one is a no brainer. Again… might have one for each handbag (what a loser I am).
Boy Brow – Just a simple product that works. No drama, fluffs the brows up, and basically does what it says.
Solution – This caused lots of mixed opinion when it was first released – many people were saying it was too harsh – but personally, I really enjoy it, and I’ve re purchased a good few times. It exfoliates my skin nicely, doesn’t break me out, and sits beautifully on my dresser.
