How sweetly timed, indeed! Were the Sugar Plum Fairies behind
this?
Every year for as long as I recall, our family Christmas
tradition was to watch Disney’s The Nutcracker along with The Small One. It was
exciting and adorable every year – elves running mad trying to manufacture toys
in the magic workshop while little pyjama’ed people sleep with one eye on the
chimney. Ah, bliss.
So I discovered today that Clinique have released their
latest collection of pastel, classic pinks named The Nutcracker Suite.
My mother is a Clinique fan of many years. She won’t use any
other lipstick nor pledge her allegiance to any other scent. Therefore, I too
have become enamoured of Happy (in every incarnation) and Aromatics. While mum
is more a fan of “classic”, I’m more a fan of “pretty” so the Snowflakes and
Sugar Plums offering is going to suit us both!
I have “The Nutcracker Act II” palette (favouring purple shades) and it is sugarsweet
pastel purples and lavender) and all sleek modern mirrored packaging. A delight that any woman
with a passion for pinks and purples would melt over. Do it!
If your Christmas budget is a little less generous but you
love pastels, you love quality makeup and skincare and you want a trusted
brand, I cannot recommend Innoxa highly enough. Love their matte lipstick in the
Barbie-approved Pink Carnation and whether you buy these for someone else or,
more wisely, yourself, I am in a daily ritual of using the Hydrating Creme Cleanser and Super Daily Moisture Protection SPF 15. The Super Sensitive range, you ask. Yes, I break out easily and I've found that SPF products are usually the culprit. This is a spot-free zone.
Oh fine. FINE! Yes, I’ll admit I’m
using the Anti Ageing Facial Serum too. Never too early to start!
