Im going away for a few days this weekend and next week with the boyfriend and some of our friends and thought this would be an ideal time to introduce my new Dior Mini Brush Holiday Travel Set.
The set contains 4 essential brushes which are small and easy to transport (so theyre not lying, rolling around in the bottom of your bag and loosing most of the bristles... whoops). These were all over the scene last year and I was lucky enough to be treated to this little set. Retailing at £56, it is on the expensive range, and to be completely frank, Im not sure I would have paid this for them.
The set includes (in mini sizes of course):
- Dior Backstage Powder Brush
- Dior Backstage Cheek Brush
- Dior Backstage Eyeshadow Brush
- Dior Backstage Lip Brush
Personally, I consider it a three brushes set since I don’t find the Lip Brush terribly useful (rarely do I use a lip brush and I dont think Im alone here!)
But the little case is pretty and its got an extra little space for my own brushes (The smallest ones I cannot live without when going away of course).
As a little extra, I was giving this Dior Visage et Yeux, which is a cleansing milk for skin and eyes. I am not very experienced in cleansing milks, I usually use a facial cleansing gel or soap, and a toner followed by moisturiser - if Im really lazy - a good old Johnsons' baby wipe!!! I previously used Cattier Paris Caresse D'Herboriste which is an organic product I had recommended by a beautician who I used to go to.
To be honest, I didnt really fall for the product when I bought it, and never really got into the routine of using it so it was left lying around both when living in Copenhagen as well as when I moved back to the UK. So it was happily received as Im sure the other product was well out of date.
I have used the Dior Lait Magique Demaquillant a couple of times, it smells amazing and is really good. I am still trying to find a product which removes my Estee Lauder DoubleWear EASILY and without having to go over and over and over with 70 different products before its TRULY off. I may try the Estee Lauder counter or the local B&Q for paint-stripper........
I wish you a great end to the week. Should be back soon. Have finally taken a picture of my empties ;) And its only half of it as the rest was thrown away at my second home...
dear of dear!
