It’s a serious perk of the job here at Her.ie towers that we get to try and test some of the latest and greatest beauty releases and call it work. Lucky us. Here is a heads up on three products that got a communal thumbs up from the team in the week that was…

Pop & Glow Cream Blush, €12.95, No7
Getting a little colour in your cheeks has just become even easier with the new line from No7 cosmetics. These nifty little twist-up pens come in three Spring-time shades and they’re pretty perfect size for on-the-go application. The lightweight, non-sticky formula is a winner and the colour is buildable for extra intensity. No7 Ireland make-up artist Eimhear Kennedy says “To achieve the best results with a cream blush like No7’s Pop & Glow, use a liquid foundation as a base as it will blend better and stay put for longer. Apply with the stick and blend gently with your finger, repeat to build the colour. No7’s Pop & Glow are a great asset to give you a hint of colour, or apply more for a pop of bolder colour. These chubby sticks are also very adaptable and can be used on the lips for an added hint of colour this spring.”
No Wrinkles Time Dose Mask, RRP €46, This Works
We have a lot of love for beauty brand This Works at Her.ie Towers, with their Deep Sleep Pillow spray on more than one bedside locker. Their latest initiative is this dual action mask, suitable for a quick skin boost or an indulgent treatment. Time-controlled effects mean you have three different options for use. We love a multi-tasker product around here.
10 Minute Mask – The 4D hydration system will deliver a quick fix to dehydrated skin, leaving it plumped, prepped and moisturised.
20 Minute Mask – The fruit acids in the mask will resurface and exfoliate the skin while the 4D hydration system provides moisture to the new layers.
Overnight Treatment – Apply a thin layer before bedtime to allow amino acids to get to work overnight to brighten and even the skin tone.
Coral Symphony, €12.95, Jessica Nails
Pastels are ruling the high street at the minute and a sugary pink nail is bang on trend. Jessica Nails has a pretty sweet collection of nail colours out for spring 2014; a palette, called Coral Symphony, inspired by oceanic corals and blooms. With six spring time shades tied to the hottest catwalk colours of the season there’s something for everyone, but it’s Ocean Bloom that’s stolen our heart. Jessica Nails Coral Symphony range comes in at €12.95 for custom colours and €25.00 for GELeration, and they’re available Jessica Nails are available from salons nationwide and online at www.frenchbeautyroom.com.
