CWM editor Olivia Gibson put PERL Cosmetics’ TikTok viral lash oil (£22) to the test to see what all the fuss is about. “This product blew me away,” she tells me. “With easy application, I’ve been coating my lashes from the root to the tip daily before bed. The nourishing vegan-friendly formula blended with natural plant seed oils makes my lashes feel softer with less shedding and breakage. I’ve already noticed new growth in such a small amount of time.” Check out https://perlcosmetics.com UNDER COVER Created with diversity and inclusivity at the forefront, BPerfect Cosmetics new Full Impact Concealer (£14.95) comes in 26 shades to smooth and illuminate skin. Infused with niacinamide, I love its soft matte formula and intense pigment. It blends super-easily whether you’re wearing other products or rocking the no make-up look, and creates a flawless crease-proof look. I’m a fan of the unusual applicator that not only offers even coverage but is also gentle on the delicate under-eye area. It’s my latest saviour for dark circles and blemishes.
