What Team STELLAR Is Loving This Week

July is officially here, and you know what that means.

No, not gorgeous weather, unfortunately. But a whole load of beauty and skincare bits that we’ve been loving this week.

…. Stunning scents

I like floral scents, but I love musky ones.

Give me a fragrance that’s deep, spicy, and/or nutty, and I’ll be wearing it every day of the week. Hence, when I tried Armani Sí Passione Red Musk, I knew it’d be getting a lot of use. 

The fragrance has base notes of white musk and top notes of strawberry, so you can get a deep scent that’s also light and airy.

Heart of rose absolute and comforting milky notes come together to create something that’s perfect for spritzing ahead of a big night out, a weekend brunch, and everything in between. Adore.

… Solid skincare

The ever-increasing range of skincare products and ingredients out there can often make it difficult to remember the basics – but sometimes all you need is a bit of vitamin C.

Forest Mist is an Irish skin and hair brand that uses botanicals like Manuka, Pepper, and Magnolia extracts in their products to support the skin’s microbiome.

Their fast-absorbing Vitamin C Elixir is designed to calm, nourish, and support the skin’s natural healing process. It’s super light and packed full of Omega 3, 6, and 9—essential fatty acids that deeply restore and protect the skin’s barrier.

Just gorgeous.

… Pimple patches

A sudden spot popping up can be a stressful experience – especially if you’ve got an event on, or just need to leave the house in general.

Popping spots, as we know, can lead to even more spots, unless you’ve got a means of managing all of that pesky gunk.

Purifide Power Patches are designed for those spot appearance emergencies, with a 3-in-1 action to help soothe and reduce spots and protect from picking.

They’re packed full of Salicylic Acid to reduce redness and encourage skin renewal, Canadian Willowherb to soothe irritated skin and Centella Asiatica to reduce inflammation.

Blemishes be gone!

… Stunning SPF

Getting a tan doesn’t have to be all about burning, scorching, and peeling. In fact, it definitely shouldn’t be.

Skin protection should be your number one goal when out in the sun, but that doesn’t mean that you can’t still get a gorgeous, glowing bronze.

Bondi Sands aren’t just about self tan, they’ve also got a whole range of gorgeous SPFs from face mists to lip balms so you can be sure you’re getting the best protection… and the best tan.

I recently used their SPF 50+ Everyday Sunscreen Face Mist while on a trip away, and it was honestly a dream to wear.

It didn’t make my face feel oily or greasy, and it was super easy to wear under my makeup, providing UVA and UVB protection throughout the day. Amazing.
