Charlotte Tilbury Glowgasm Lips - Glittergasm

As well as wanting absolutely everything Pillow Talk, the latest product to capture my attention is the Charlotte Tilbury Glowgasm Lips and having been initially torn over which colour to choose, I opted for the shade Glowgasm which is described as being a pink sparkle.

As you might expect, it comes exceptionally packed and the lipstick casing, instead of being the signature gold, is a beautiful light blush pink holographic shade and if I am honest, I much prefer it!

These Crystal balms are described as being transparent bullets of lip-plumping balm which feature Charlotte’s new, glow-glide texture to deliver a gorgeous wash of glow leaving the lips looking plumped and just been kissed. Featuring pH-adaptive technology to flatter your lips with a natural veil of hydrating, light-scattering pigment. Once on the lips, both shades change into your personalised shade of pink or red based on your natural lip color, warmth, moisture, and as already mentioned, the all important pH level.

Glittergasm, the shade I chose, is a clear lipstick which is packed with sprinkles of gold glitter that transforms into the most delightful perfect shade of pink. The swatch above shows the shade of pink on my hand, but on my lips, it slightly lighter to a very light pink which I absolutely love. Now I am debating purchasing Jewelgasm to see which shade of red I get, mainly because I was once told that a red lip is just not the colour that I should wear and after that comment I never have, so this could be my shade.

Glittergasm from Charlotte Tilbury is priced at £22 and you can find it via Charlotte Tilbury, Cult Beauty and John Lewis.

Boostology Moon & Star - 14k gold filled lava diffuser necklace, with essential oil

Boostology is one of those stores I cannot wait to visit in person. Describing themselves as an independent retailer based in London, not only do they offer unique, innovative and exclusive gift ideas, each product is designed to give you, and the planet, a boost. Their range includes organic, vegan, plastic-free ideas and so much more. I was kindly gifted the Moon & star - 14k gold filled lava diffuser necklace, with essential oil.

Nestled inside the white presentation box is the Moon & Star necklace, an instruction card plus a vial of essential oil. 

The necklace features a 16 inch, 14 karat gold filled chain, complete with a spring ring clasp, so when it is worn, it doesn't sit too tightly round the neck and instead sits on the chest bone. The star which compliments the chain, is also a lovely addition to the necklace theme, with the moon being made from natural black lava stone.

I absolutely love my essential oils, some of my current favourites I have written about in this post on my blog.  With this necklace is a 2ml vial which features a blend of natural oils and it is  called Dream Weaver.  Dream Weaver is described as being a tranquil aromatherapy blend which is soothing, calming and perfect for enhancing a quiet moment to yourself. It is made up of three essential oils:
  • Lavender Oil - Used for its relaxation benefits
  • Roman Chamomile Oil - Used for its anxiety relief benefits
  • Angelica Oil - Used for its benefits to calm nervousness and anxiety
All three of these essential oils are also known for their promotion of sleep benefits too and together they are a perfect blend for its pairing with this natural lava stone necklace.

To use with this necklace, you simply use the brush, shown above, to dab the essential oil onto the stone, to calm you, wherever you go. Perfect for that going back to the 'real world' that we once knew as the norm before the Pandemic set in.

Priced at £33 here from Boostology, this Moon & Star 14k gold filled lava diffuser necklace is a unique, slightly unusual but incredible thoughtful gift and made more so because of the brands commitment to the environment which includes some of the following:
  • They have banned products that are made entirely from plastic. You will only find small plastic accessories (for example lids) on our website, where no other alternative is available to us.
  • They Plant one tree for every order you place with us.
  • All orders are sent in eco-friendly parcels, which contain no plastic
  • They recycle all of their office waste and use 100% renewable electricity at Boostology HQ (from solar, wind and hydro-electric power stations).
So, at a time when we should all be doing our bit for the environment by cutting down on excess waste, packaging and looking at our carbon footprint, Boostology do this and so much more.
