Five minute midday beauty - Women's Agenda

Five minute midday beauty

We’ve all been there; the clock has just hit midday and it feels like it should be at least 4pm already. You feel like you’ve run a marathon, when in reality, you haven’t left your chair. And although beauty is the last thing on your mind, you could really do with a pretty pick me up without lugging your cosmetics case to the bathrooms! Luckily, there are a few key beauty products that can breathe new life into your tired-midday look, all without leaving your desk.

Kosmea Hydrating Rosewater Mist – $19.95

This incredibly lightweight spray is like an ocean swim in a bottle. Soothing, cooling and hydrating, this rosewater mist refreshes tired and dehydrated skin – which can be an unwelcome symptom of office air-conditioning – as well as adding a hit of hydration to breathe new life into your base for a dewy, fresh look sans makeup reapplication. Simply mist all over your face and enjoy the Turkish delight fragrance.

 

Nuxe Huile Prodigieuse – $24.95

This dry body oil sinks into skin fast, for intense nourishment and a touch of feminine fragrance. A real multi-tasker, Nuxe oil adds instant replenishment to dry legs or arms, which can often catch you out in Autumn (Is it hot? Is it cold? Will my arms look too dry if I slip out of my blazer?) It can also be used on the tips of hair to tame fly-aways, and rubbed into cuticles after too much typing dries them out. Plus, the luxe looking bottle will take pride of place on your desk!

 

Sally Hansen Insta-Dri Fast Dry Nail Colour – $13.95

There is nothing quite like a fresh mani to brighten up your day, but getting to a nail salon during opening hours can be a struggle, and having the patience to wait for your nails to dry after painting them yourself can also be an inconvenience. Enter Sally Hansen’s Insta-Dri Fast Dry Nail Colour. Dry to the touch in just 60 seconds with a high shine finish, try in the bold coral ‘Sonic Bloom’ shade for a colourful and cheery blur over your keyboard whilst typing away!

The Little Alchemist Natural Perfume – $30.00

These sweet scents from The Little Alchemist are perfect for a midday pick me up. Made from a 100% natural jojoba oil base, the botanical fragrances are kind to skin and the environment. Try rolling on the uplifting Passionfruit and Lime perfume to wrists and decollotage for a lingering scent your co-workers will also appreciate.

Savoir Faire Lipgloss – $25.00

A slick of lipgloss can reinvigorate your entire beauty look! Especially when it comes with a delicious scent. Try the creamy (never sticky) Savoir Faire formula – each shade has its own unique fresh scent and flavour. Try the subtle sheen of ‘Lolita’ (a pretty peach) or, for a real boost, try ‘Rapture’, a lovely red with a fresh peppermint scent.
