I&#8217;ve finally made my way through most of the items and thought it would be fun to share some of my personal favourites.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>I was lucky to go on lots of weekend trips throughout 2018. Most of these products were travel or sample sized so they were ideal for my little adventures. There wasn&#8217;t anything I disliked in the collection but there were some real stand-out products which I know I&#8217;ll be re-purchasing.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<a data-flickr-embed=\"true\" href=\"https:\/\/www.flickr.com\/photos\/daisyhatami\/46586333954\/in\/dateposted\/\" title=\"indulge Beauty skincare\"><img decoding=\"async\" loading=\"lazy\" src=\"https:\/\/farm8.staticflickr.com\/7870\/46586333954_0766e08276_b.jpg\" width=\"768\" height=\"1024\" alt=\"indulge Beauty skincare\"><\/a>\n\n\n\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.indulgebeauty.com\/products\/sachajuan-sachajuan-150ml--34947\">Sachajuan Ocean Mist<\/a> <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>I fell in love with this Sachajuan hair mist right away. The spray accompanied me on two trips to Lille, a weekend in Cologne, half-term in Cornwall and many weekends in Cambridge.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Despite using the spray liberally and having a lot of hair I still have a little left to use up. It goes a long way and once it&#8217;s finished I&#8217;ll be buying a full sized bottle.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>My favourite way to use Ocean Mist is when my hair is damp. I&#8217;ll spray it in and scrunch my hair before leaving it to air dry. If I need to dry my hair quickly I&#8217;ll us a hair dryer and scrunch up my hair into little sections to create a natural tousled look<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>It&#8217;s a bit like a salt water spray but also has the ability to act like a non-tacky and sticky hairspray. I find it lifts any natural waves in my hair, adds volume and keeps the style locked in. Perfect for lazy mornings.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.indulgebeauty.com\/products\/urban-decay-urban-decay-urban-decay-all-nghtr-setting-spray-travel-relaunch-38455\">Urban Decay All Nighter<\/a> <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Since I&#8217;ve got into using a make-up setting spray there&#8217;s no going back. All Nighter makes such a positive difference to how my make-up looks throughout the day, especially when the afternoon hits. This spray even works well during the hot summer months.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>It&#8217;s a very light spray which I like. It doesn&#8217;t feel like you&#8217;re adding on any extra layers on top of your make-up and certainly isn&#8217;t sticky.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>I apply this straight after my make-up and keep it in my handbag for an extra spritz to freshen up my look throughout the day.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.johnlewis.com\/clarins-hydra-essentiel-silky-cream-normal-dry-skin-50ml\/p3167558\">Clarins Hydra-Essential cream<\/a><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>This is probably one of my all-time favourite face creams. I even <a href=\"http:\/\/www.prettygreentea.com\/2018\/07\/clarins-hydra-essential-silky-cream-review-spf-15\">dedicated a full post<\/a>. I go back to this cream year after year and always have a jar ready to go. I believe it used to be part of the Hydra Essential range when I was in college (<em>yes&nbsp;I&#8217;ve&nbsp;been&nbsp;using&nbsp;it&nbsp;that&nbsp;long)<\/em> but they re-named it a few years back. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>My skin can get very dry, especially during the colder months. If you have dry and sensitive skin then I highly rate the full Hydra Essential range.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>I use this one in the morning and would normally buy the version with SPF in. Despite it being a very hydrating cream it&#8217;s not at all heavy or tacky on your skin. It sinks in quickly and leaves your skin feeling lovely and soft.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.indulgebeauty.com\/search?freeText=beauty%20blender\">Beauty Blender<\/a><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>It&#8217;s taken me ages but I&#8217;m now a Beauty Blender convert. I know, I&#8217;m really late to the game with this one. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>It&#8217;s a soft little sponge that you use to apply your make-up. I&#8217;ve mostly used mine to apply foundation. It&#8217;s really easy to use and leaves you with a smooth finish. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>I&#8217;ve been using mine by running the blender under the tap, squeezing away excess water and then bouncing my foundation into my skin. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.indulgebeauty.com\/search?freeText=perricone%20md\">Perricone MD Hydrating Cloud Cream<\/a><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>This is a really luxurious face cream. It has a lovely creamy and thick consistency but somehow is still lightweight, light as a cloud even. It&#8217;s perfect for the colder months too. This tiny little pot went a very long way. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>It&#8217;s a fully hydrating cream which is fragrance free and perfect for my sensitive and dry skin. I use this in the evening (and the Clarins cream in the mornings) on my travels have been loving how soft, smooth and plump it leaves my skin is.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>I&#8217;d love to try more from the Perricone MD in the future. <\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Last year the lovely team at&nbsp;Indulge Beauty, a new store in London sent some of their favourite products for me to try out.
