News From BeautyCouture.ie

I've always been a fan of BeautyCouture.ie, even before I started blogging I would read this online magazine regularly. I've even bought a couple of items from their gorgeous handbag range. They lovely girls have added a new section to the website where you can buy pre loved 100% authentic designer accessoreis from the likes of Jimmy Choo, Gucci and Chanel (Oh My!)
 
 
I adore designers like these but would never in a million years purchase them. I think hubby would pass out if I Told him I spent something like €800 on a handbag. There is just a small selection over on Beautycouture.ie at the moment but I am sure more will be added as demand grows.
 
Out of the items on their, I have my eyes on the Manola Blahniks but they are too small a size for me, for this you will find me weeping silently in the corner. These originally cost €500 but are €240 on the website.
 
I love a knee high boot and am seriously lusting these Gucci Boots, originally costing €665 but now €300. Sure it's still out of my price range but how lovely are they?
 
 
It's definitely worth your while keeping an eye on the website, who knows you may just find that designer item you have lusted after for years. Me? I'm keeping my eye out for a Louis Vuitton item

La Roche Posay Cicaplast Lips

My lips are generally in pretty good condition but coming into winter they can dry out a bit. I have tried every lip balm out there, some I love e.g. The Body Shop Get Lippy Range, some I found did nothing for my lips. When I heard tale of a new lip repair product from La Roche Posay, I got excited.
 
 
This baby is called Cicaplast Lips. I love the Cicaplast Baume so much and I admit that I have used it on my lips so I'm happy that this newbie is specifically for lips. Well, actually you can also use it around your nose, which is great fro when the skin on your nose dries out from having a cold.
 
Ingredients include Shea Butter and Panthenol so this will target dry lips and moisturise from deep down.
 
I have used it religiously over the last couple of weeks and have found it great. I'm currently nursing a cold that hasn't quite broken yet and have used this on my lips and as a preventative for dry skin on nose syndrome. The results? My lips are lovely and soft and I haven't experienced any dry skin.
 
Cicaplast Lips should be at your local La Roche Posay stockist now priced €6.50. Which is a really good price. I have used this constantly and I still have more than half left.
 
Will you be trying this lovely?
