When was the last time you allowed yourself to enjoy the pleasure of self indulgence?

Treating yourself and your complexion isn’t about the showing off, it’s an exciting bit of you time; a time for you to indulge in yourself no matter whether you’re off to the office or the cocktail bar. Quality over quantity is key, and it’s all about the beauty economics. A little investment on some key products will transform your makeup bag – because everybody deserves a little luxury in their life! Here are my favourite makeup investment pieces…

Guerlain Terracotta Bronzer

Meet the crème de la crème of bronzers with over 30 years of heritage under its belt, Guerlain Terracotta. Terracotta is a little like the Ferrari of bronzers, with the body of a legend and incredible horsepower for high octane sunless tanning. It transforms your look, giving your skin a gorgeous and healthy glow in a single sweep. If you’re unsure of your shade, pop over to twitter and use the hashtag #AskEscentual for a personalised recommendation.

Laura Geller Spackle Primer

The Laura Geller Spackle Primer should always carry a special place in your makeup bag. This everyday luxury will make you proud of your finished makeup look as it fills fine lines whilst smoothing over uneven tones, adding longevity to your foundation. The Spackle range invests in your complexion and addresses your concerns, helping you to put your best face forward – once you try it, you won’t go back.

Dior Lip Glow

Similar to that feeling of sipping on your favourite champagne, the Dior Lip Glow colour awakening balm drenches your lips with moisture. It adapts to the natural pH levels in your lips and creates a tailor made pink hue that perfectly enhances your natural tone. This luxurious lip balm oozes glamour, and you can’t help but feel like royalty when you unveil the exquisite packaging from your makeup bag. It’s the pinnacle of fresh, subtle elegance.

Diorshow Mascara

You know when you step into a pair of your favourite high heels and a part of you feels like you can conquer the world? Well, one sweep of the Diorshow Mascara and you will feel like a super hero. This lash-elevating tool is a beauty cult favourite, transforming make-up bags all over the world with its ultra-black formula that creates masses of thick and curved lashes.  Now you can feel like a supermodel every morning – even if you don’t have the legs, you’ll definitely have the lashes.

Guerlain Meteorites Pearls

The precious Guerlain Meteorites Pearls accentuate and complement every complexion in a unique way. The timeless pot of rainbow-hued pearls provide colour correcting radiance whilst highlighting your skin tone, completing every look with an effortless and beautiful finish.  The attention to detail of the pearls ensure you premiere the perfect complexion every day.
