Great tasting and hazel-nutty but I once looked at the back of the label and was shocked at the fat content, 31g - yes there’s saturated and non-saturated but this should be indulged in very occasionally once in a blue moon.

Black is the new black, the timeless hue that goes with anything. In 2019, black is more than just a shade, it’s a feeling, a sensation almost, an aura.
Black’s enjoying playing a strong part in the beauty and fragrance world, re-inforcing the appeal of a silhouette palette and sultry trails.
As trends neutralise in the visual sense, the olfactory offerings have done the opposite with unexpected cocktails of fragrance.
Earlier this year, Black Opium from YSL gained a sparkling intense edition, Black Opium Intense Eau De Parfum. This intense flanker represents the bold, independent woman who always leaves a trail of seductive mystery. Zoe Kravitz is the face of the ad campaigns for Black Opium Intense, a scent representative of the woman who follows her intuition and desires. Attracted to the new energies bought on by the dark night, she’s unstoppable. Presley Gerber, son of supermodel Cindy Crawford also stars in the advertising for the new Black Opium Intense.
The blackened, dark blue square bottle is illuminated by the night-shade blue colour of the perfume inside it, while the outer part of the flacon resembles a dark starry sky with its micro sparkles.
Nodding to the mystery of the nightlife, YSL Black Opium Intense Eau De Parfum opens with top notes of blue absinthe and boysenberry, while jasmine sambac and orange blossom bloom in the heart with an added beat of black coffee. Sandalwood, liquorice and vanilla meet to make a deep, magical, yet creamy base.
YSL Black Opium Intense Eau De Parfum is £62 for 50ml at John Lewis

Having tried and tested and been chuffed with many Cica balms, I was amazed to discover Revolution Skincare has released a peaceful looking green Cica face Tonic.
Tonics for the face and toners are big in beauty again and the emphasis is on anti-inflammatory properties; Cica will be a god send if you have acne, rosacea, dermatitis or any redness inducing skin concern.
I have been using this morning and night after cleansing and have been really pleased with the fresh, even looking appearance of my skin and no redness or breakouts!

Badgley Mischka has always epitomised a sense of elegance and chic and the style miles go even further with Forest Noir, their all new scentsational step with the same jewel moulded bottle as last year’s Eau De Parfum. Expect many new branch outs with this evergreen twist!
Citron, fresh mandarin leaves and D’Anjou pear are a sparkling opener in Forest Noir, a fruitful radiant start. Night blooming jasmine, Bulgarian roses and hyacinth brings floral domination to the heart while the base begins with an intense patchouli accord which meets with earthy moss and creamy vanilla.
Forest Noir will be available on the website of Badgley Mischka and at Macy’s stores but this being a high end designer, it may be a little pricey so if you’re thinking of buying, look at price points on these sites, or comparison sites, etc. Duty free outlets may sell this with a percentage reduced off the price so keep your eyes peeled!

After what seems a big love affair with matte lips, gloss is making its way back onto the market in a new way. Cosmic lip toppers can be worn alone or over lipstick or lip pencil to make a multi-dimensional looking pout. Glosses infused with micro glitter particles do your lips a favour by making them look fuller. There are a tempting trio of lip topping glosses available in Rose Quartz (pink gold), Ruby Crush (watermelon shimmer) and Iced Diamond (white toned silver sparkle) that look ultra chic on their own as a sheer gloss or over your favourite lip colour. If you’ve got nothing but powder mattes in the lip department, it may be time for an update! -

Everything you’re looking for in lip care, SPF which is important even for lips, so it’s factor 30, and lanolin formula which conditions the delicate skin coating of the lips while also packing universally flattering colour and shine. The size of the juicy tubes mean you can take this beaut through airport security fine - Kirsten Carriol the founder of Lano-lips was after a good lip balm / lip gloss hybrid she could take on a flight with her to combat dryness. With a sheep farmer for a dad, she learnt the benefits of lanolin to condition the wool and skin of sheep from an early age . Inspired by this, she began working up ideas for lip and skin products that did the same for humans! -
