Hi guys
Hope you’re having a great start to the week.
I had an hour to spare this afternoon so I decided to do a little blogging!
Earlier today, on my Insta Stories, I featured a few of my absolute fave products from my edit on Cloud1o. I tend to get asked a lot about personal faves and recommendations so I figured a blog post would be the best point of information.
Now, as most of you will know, I am a Cloud10 ambassador but the ambassadorship activity takes place over on my Instagram, so this post is not paid-for content. The products featured in my edit are my tried-and-tested faves that I can say with my hand on my heart that I love and use, however the seven featured below are my absolute die-hard faves that I would choose above all if I had to.
Don’t forget, if you shop Cloud10, you can use SJEDIT for 10% off!
Anyway, back to the edit of my edit!
1 – Milani 2 in 1 Conceal & Perfect Foundation
Milani 2 in 1 Conceal & Perfect Foundation – here
Anyone that has been following me knows that the Milani 2 in 1 Conceal & Perfect Foundation has been in my makeup bag for quite some time now, long before I started working with Cloud10 in fact.
It has been one of my faves for ages! I even got my sister Carla into it and now she’s as obsessed with it as I am!
I am always trying out new foundations but there are a handful that I love and would go back to time and time again. Milani is definitely one of those.
I love it because it’s budget-friendly and gives really good coverage without being too cakey.
I’m a big fan of the dewy glowy look and I find that this foundation still allows your skin to look dewy because the result is not too heavy.
They also have a really good shade selection so you will definitely find the best one for your skin tone.
I tend to go for shade 4 or 5, depending on how tanned I am, but sometimes, I will mix the two shades together.
2 – Aveda Thickening Tonic

I’ve been using the Aveda Thickening Tonic for at least two years.
This tonic essentially thickens the roots down to the end and gives hair a fuller look.
I wash my hair, towel dry it and then spray the tonic over the middle and ends before then blow drying. It gives such an amazing lift to the roots and leaves hair looking full of volume.
It’s one of those products that just works like a dream.
3 – Chemistry Hyaluronic Concentrate Gel
Chemistry Hyaluronic Concentrate Gel – here
I use the Chemistry Hyaluronic Concentrate Gel as a body moisturiser because it’s so hydrating, and tends to spread and absorb really fast and really easily unlike a lot of creams which I find have to sometimes be lathered into the skin and as a result, take some time to absorb.
Its gel consistency means it’s great for using over false tan and it’s oil free so it won’t impact on the longevity of your tan either.
The bottle has a pump on it which is so handy for application.
I just leave mine sitting on the dresser in my bathroom and use one pump of the gel whenever I need it.
3 – Kevyn Aucoin Sensual Skin Enhancer
Kevyn Aucoin Skin Enhancer – here
I love the Kevyn Aucoin Sensual Skin Enhancer. I use it as a concealer under the eyes and it’s one of those staple items that has been in my makeup bag for quite some time now, so I was delighted to be working with a company that was retailing it.
I have quite bad dark circles and I find that this for me, conceals everything while at the same time enhancing it. I also use the concealer in my own contour palette but I like to give credit where credit is due, so trust me when I say the Kevyn Aucoin Skin Enhancer is the business. When you use it, you can see why it’s one of those iconic products with a cult following.
A little goes a long way too so once you buy this, you will have it for ages!
It is available in lots of different shades so you should have no difficulty finding your shade.
4 – Dripping Gold Ultra Dark Lotion
Dripping Gold Ultra Dark Lotion – here
I wasn’t going to include one of my own products in this list but given that it’s my die hard list, I had to give my tan a mention as I do use it religiously.
I do tend to go between the mousse and the lotion but at the moment I’m obsessed with the ultra dark lotion. It’s my go-to shade and formula right now. I suffer with dry skin and for me, the formula is just really hydrating.
It also blends in so nice and naturally with the skin and once you have your skin prepped adequately, it develops so well.
5 – Ultrasun Slimmer SPF
Ultrasun Slimmer SPF – here
I’m a sticker for SPF! It could be pouring rain outside and I will still lather it on after my moisturiser as part of my daily routine.
At the moment I especially love the Ultrasun Slimmer SPF in factor 20 or 30.
I also love the Dr Murad Age Defense Face SPF. This is another SPF that I would turn to for every day use.
6 – Pixi FortifEYE Firming Eye Patches
Pixi FortifEYE Firming Eye Patches – here
Oh my God, the Pixi Eye Patches … I love these!
I will often pop them on under my eyes while Im working on my eye makeup and then do my face makeup afterwards. They are brilliant for brightening up the eye are and anyone who has been following my Insta Stories will know I often bring the Pixi Eye Patches with me when on a flight.
I also sometimes pop them on when I’m pottering about the place. They’re a blessing for tired eyes.
There you have it guys, the die-hard faves I have chosen from my full list of beauty faves, (which you can see here)
