Space NK Spring Beauty Edit GWP

Space NK recently held their Spring Beauty Event which is always a fun day to shop. 

In store there are various vendors offering make overs and treatments and most importantly there's one of their glorious goody bags free with purchases. (There's also an Autumn Beauty Edit and I always take advantage of these two events, as their gift bags are just so darn good!) This year I was away on a work related trip so I couldn't attend in person but luckily you could order online and get the gift bag.

I've been trying to be a bit less spendy of late so this was really a restock of things I use regularly. They're all old favourites that you've seen before but here's what I purchased

Sunday Riley Good Genes (in a newly formatted spiffy box). I just love this and use it as my nighttime serum whenever I'm at home. It's a lactic acid treatment/formula that makes my skin look brighter and healthier. It's one of my favorite treatments and I love the way this smells.

Chantecaille Just Skin TM in the shade 'Bliss'. I'm almost out of this so I needed another. I won't say anything else about this one as I've said it all before but it is the best.

I was almost totally out of eye cream (gulp!) so restocked with a Goldfadden MD Bright Eyes and a Caudalie Vinosource SOS Morning Eye Rescue. The Goldfadden cream really does seem to brighten my eye area a little and I like the Caudalie one as it feels very refreshing - soothing and hydrating - I use it at night as well as during the day BTW. The Caudalie cream comes in a tube that's very compact and perfect for traveling with also.

And now here's the gift bag...

I'm totally enamoured with these gift bag! The two full sized items are the NIA24 Facial Sunscreen which is one of my favourite sunscreens and a Diptyque Candle (mine is in the scent 'Tuberose'). I mean, c'mon, who doesn't love a Diptyque Candle? The samples are all generously sized and, as usual, skincare heavy which pleases me no end.  In addition to the skincare there are four hair samples, two body samples and just one make up sample - the Kevyn Aucoin Nude Lip Pencil (third row, far right). All of these items are great for travel and although they are mostly new items for me to try there are some old faves too (Hello Good Genes and Hourglass Veil Primer!). I'm going to use and enjoy absolutely everything in this bag!  Oh before I forget here's the bag itself along with a few smaller samples that I received as it was a mail order.

It's a very nice quality roomy black bag with hefty gold hardware. All in all I'm very pleased with my purchases and super pleased with this wonderful GWP!
