Happy Friday everyone! Today I'm sharing the contents of a wonderful package I received from Charlestongirl of Best Things in Beauty. Recently, I won Charlestongirl's Sunday Riley Prismasilk Eye Color in Moon Dust giveaway. You can imagine how excited I was to win; Sunday Riley is a brand I would not have had the chance to try otherwise! When I opened the package, I was delighted to find surprise treats inside:
1. Tom Ford Lavender Palm eau de parfum - the scent is unlike anything I have. I smell what I imagine to be a crisp earthy palm with a hint of the low key lavender. This is definitely not my usual, but I'm intrigued and find myself going back to sniff my wrists.
2. Sunday Riley Prismasilk Eye Color in Moon Dust - I'm not allowed to touch this until I get swatches. I'll try to work on that this weekend.
3. Chanel Le Blanc Brightening moisturizing creme - can't wait to try this. My face has recently been ravaged by a new found food allergy, so I'm waiting til things settle down before trying this treasure. The lotion has such a perfect lotion smell and I love brightening products in general.
4. Benefit "that gal" brightening face primer - I'm so happy to get Benefit samples. Even their minis have cute packaging! Benefit is a brand I'd love to dip a toe into.
5. Benefit High Beam - I've been wanting to try this for ages, and a mini is perfect since only a little is required. I blended out a swipe on my right cheek; it is a major highlight. High beam is the perfect descriptor.
I'm all smiles after opening my package. Every little piece is something I'm looking forward to trying. Thank you Charlestongirl for your generosity. I'm really over the moon with Moon Dust and the rest of my new goodies!
Thanks for reading! Have you tried any of the pieces shown here? Have you tried Sunday Riley? What are your favorite Benefit products?
Love, Dovey
Congrats Dovey!! So cool! I can hardly wait for your review of the Sunday Riley Eye shadow!
ReplyDeletethanks Tracy! Soon I hope!
Deletecongrats! :) I would love to see a review on the chanel le blanc creme, I heard good things about this one.
ReplyDeleteHi Claire, I'll try to do one later this month. Skincare always takes me a while to test out :)
DeleteThat's such a great win :) I haven't tried any of those products, but I would kill to try Chanel ANYTHING. I've also been eyeing the Benefit Moon Beam and High Beam - but I can't decide which one to go for. Can't wait to see the swatches!
ReplyDeleteHi Sidney- I was intrigued by Moon Beam too. High beam is so bright that I'm not sure if it's an everyday highlighter!
DeleteWhat an awesome package! Reading Best Things In Beauty induces so many lemmings! Looking forward to your review of the Sunday Riley shadow!
ReplyDeleteHi Kristi, I agree--- BTiBeauty is a lemming creator!
DeleteCongratulations! I can't wait to see the swatches! Those eye shadows are supposed to be nothing short of amazing!
ReplyDeleteThank you Kelly!
DeleteEeee Lavender Plum! I had the luck to try it out yesterday AND I ADORE IT! I'm a big fan of lavender, so naturally it was fantastic to try such a great lavender-based perfume :) I hope you'll like it too Dovey!
ReplyDeleteHi Sunny, hehe, what a coincidence! You're reminding me to wear it again now :)
Deletenice!
ReplyDeletei'd love to sniff the tom ford fragrance. :)
that highbeam is just the right size! i couldn't agree with you more!
Thanks Lena!
DeleteYay for Dovey! Can't wait to see what you think of the Sunday Riley shadow :D
ReplyDeleteThanks Larie!
DeleteOh wow, those are *some* goodies!
ReplyDeleteMy favorite benefit product is most likely girl meets pearl - its fabulous.!
Hi Shivani, I've often wondered about the difference between Girl meets Pearl and High beam. You've reminded me to check that out!
DeleteCongratulations, Dovey! I've been dying to try some of the Sunday Riley shadows so I'm eagerly awaiting your review.

Thanks Jessica!
DeleteCongrats Dovey! :) Looking forward to seeing your reviews on some of these, too. One of my favourite products from Benefit is their Benetint Lip Balm. It's quite hydrating and leaves a lovely sheer, red tint on lips.
ReplyDeleteHi Nat, thanks for the recommendation; I forgot that Benefit had a balm! It's good to hear that it's worth checking out.
DeleteThat's so awesome. I've never won a giveaway before... still trying though :)
ReplyDeleteI can't wait for your reviews on these products. I have Benefit's Watt's Up highlighter, and I love the color. I am curious to get my hands on other highlighters though. I love to mix it up!
Hi C, I love cream products, so I'm sure I would like Watt's up. I love the lightbulb packaging too :)
DeleteWOW o WOW what a package, drooling! cant wait to see the SR swatches!
ReplyDeleteHaha, thanks J!
DeleteCongratulations! This *is* an "oooooooh"-worthy package.
ReplyDeleteI can't wait for the SR swatches and a review.
Hi BooBooNinja, thanks!
DeleteI am always on the search for a good brightener to combat sun damage and ward off dullness. It's difficult to find one that actually works and doesn't irritate my sensitive skin. So far, so good using The Lady Soma Renew Serum! It's provides light but adequate hydration for my skin and definitely perks up my complexion. My skin tone looks brighter and more even toned immediately after applying it. Too early to tell if it's really treating my skin on a deeper level but I am happy with the instant results. No redness, dryness or clogged pores so far either, so it's a keeper.
ReplyDeleteWhat really sold me on this Lady Soma Serum (other than promising sound of the ingredients) was the heavenly scent.
