Your London Wedding - May/Jun 2019 (Issue 65)

FEEL GOOD FACTOR With the trend for beauty with a conscience going from strength to strength, we look at transforming our own make-up and skincare routines with these vegan-friendly heroes Norvell Self Tanning Mist for Faces  £9.99 | norvelltanning.co.uk “I’ve been a regular fake tan user for years and one area that’s hard to get right is the face. The instructions say to apply with a make-up sponge and although that’s something I’ve never done before, it was a revelation! It made the application so easy. The product sprayed on to the sponge with little mess, achieving a natural colour without the dreaded patchy or orange effect. It didn’t have that typical fake tan smell either. I’d definitely recommend it.” – Danielle Harvey Arbonne Intelligence Pollution Defense CC Cream £34 | arbonne.com “This multi-functional CC cream worked like a dream, the light shade was a perfect match for my fair skin. It went on smoothly, evened out my natural skin tone beautifully leaving it feeling smooth and shine-free – it even covered my sunspots! Packed with natural ingredients, it boasts a whole raft of benefits including protection from everyday pollution and the sun – a honeymoon must-have!” – Sarah Reeve Nanshy Masterful Collection Brush Set £49.95 | nanshy.com “The amount of make-up brushes I go through you wouldn’t believe and it’s not a cheap business finding that perfect brush for every detail! This set is brilliant value for such high quality tools. My favourite is the shader brush. It applied product to my lids smoothly and with minimal drop-out. Working together as a set, I was delighted how flawless they made my overall look. Each handle is labelled so they’re perfect even for the novice.” – Kelly Andrews Pure Anada Natural Mascara £14.50 | liveinthelight.co.uk “I wasn’t sure what to expect from a natural mascara, but I’m pleased to report I loved it! Easy to apply with it’s slightly curved brush, it separated and defined my lashes beautifully. Although, it doesn’t pertain to be a waterproof mascara, my eyes have been streaming in the wind lately and I fully expected to look like Alice Cooper when I looked in the mirror, but happily it had stayed put and still looked perfect.” – Kelly Andrews Gentle Cleanse & Make-up Remover £20 | greenpeople.co.uk “I wasn’t sure on the texture of this product at first – it has the consistency of a moisturiser – but after smoothing it over my face I soon changed my tune. It’s brilliant at removing dirt, make-up and even waterproof mascara. It left my skin feeling fresh and clear and its rich formula meant I didn’t get that tight, dry feeling. I have quite sensitive skin, but the product’s anti-inflammatory properties meant I was left with nothing but glowing supple skin.” – Hannah Faulder Emani Perfect 10 Primer Serum £32 | lovelula.com “I have dry skin and find primers generally cause breakouts, so I was a bit sceptical about trying this product. I used it over the course of two days and found it left my face feeling more hydrated and smooth. It held my make-up in place all day and smelt amazing. I’d definitely recommend it for both dry and oily skin types.” – Melissa Barker Alteya Organics Bio Damascena Rose Otto Facial Toner £22 | sveticosmetics.co.uk “I usually steer clear from using a toner as they can feel like they are stripping my skin of its essential nutrients, but, made with Bulgarian rose oil, this one was surprisingly different. It felt soft, was easy to apply on a cotton wool ball and seemed to glide over my skin, plus the scent was amazing! I tried this over a few consecutive nights and it always felt the same – my skin was soft after each application. I’m now a toner convert.” – Claire Ridley TRIED AND TESTED 103
