Hi Valerie! Thank you for continuously updating us on your beauty escapades and I look forward to more in 2023! I would be really interested in products that make you feel good especially on days when we need a little lift or I'd be really interested in your clothing and style icons. Anyway, my beauty favourites of 2022 include the cetaphil oily skin cleanser for my oily AF skin, snail mucin from Corsyx (highly recommend for a dewy hydrating look under moisturiser), nuxe rev de miel face balm for a night time treat, dermologica rice exfoliant (get the travel size - I've had mine since August and its still going strong!) and finally the rituals shower gel and body scrub in the fragrance Rituals of Mehr. In terms of 2023, I hope to try some more Lisa Elridge products especially the velvet lip shade in Cinnabar I think - I hope she comes to house of fraiser/brown thomas as buying online can be such a risk!! Anyway, sorry for the lengthy reply it's just beauty is so exciting to me and I love discussing it which is why I love this newsletter!!

Thank you so much for your lovely comment, Caroline! And never apologise for being excited to chat about beauty — that's why I'm here :) I may just steal that feel-good products idea for January. Love hearing your favourites! Would definitely like to try the Cosrx Snail Mucin, do you use it like a serum? As for Lisa Eldridge, Cinnabar is a really beautiful, autumnal red and quite unique. I hope she eventually is able to expand into stores as it would be so nice to see the shades before you buy — that's why I was so happy to get the chance to visit the pop up!
