If you're a regular reader of Ellis Tuesday. You will know that I've worked with Notino before on some product reviews. And this month when I was placing my order I was truly blown away by some of the brands and products that had made their way onto the site, since I last paid it a visit. So here are the 3 unexpected and exciting bits that I added to my basket this month. And my Notino UK review;
Makeup Revolution Re-Loaded Eyeshadow Palette in Newtrals 2*
First up we have something from Makeup Revolution. If you didn't already know, Notino stock the brilliant budget friendly makeup line that has taken the beauty industry by storm. It's been great to see the Makeup Revolution collection of products grow. And I was really excited to spot this palette on the Notino site.
The Re-Loaded eyeshadow palette in the Newtrals 2 colourway immediately caught my eye. It ended up being less than £4 thanks to a promotion that they were running at the time.
I've long been a fan of Makeup Revolution's, as you will have seen if you've been reading Ellis Tuesday since the early days (find some of my previous reviews here). And when it comes to this palette I was immensely impressed once again. I love the mixture of shades in this palette. Plus I actually don't have anything like it in my current collection, which is quite the feat. The shadows are buttery soft and blend so beautifully. It always blows my mind when I consider how much I've paid for a Makeup Revolution product!
YSL Rouge Pur Couture The Slim Lipstick in 24 Rare Rose*
Whilst browsing the makeup section, I thought that I would have a little look for some luxury bits and was taken aback when I saw that they were now stocking the YSL The Slim Lipsticks. I really wasn't expecting to find them on the site.
I absolutely loved the finish and colour selection when I had the opportunity to try them out on the Glasgow Loves Christmas Festive Day Out so I had to pick one up. I'm hoping that they will restock more of the shades soon as they sadly didn't have the exact shade that I was looking for but I just couldn't leave the Rare Rose colour behind. Again, I have nothing like it in my current makeup collection.
Byredo Bibliothèque Scented Candle*
And last but not least we have the most surprising find, this Byredo Bibliothèque scented candle. I honestly couldn't believe it when I saw that Notino were now stocking Byredo candles! I had previously seen a few of their shower gels and Eau De Parfums on the site but the literally boujie (it even says it on the label!) candle was what stood out to me the most.
The Bibliothèque scent is just so interesting. I really wasn't sure what to expect from the candle but it smells incredible. There's a blend of musk, woodiness and even a hint of floral notes to it. I'm a big vanilla and peony fan so to have those two fragrances blended together in this, along with the likes of leather, patchouli, peach and plum, is just divine. If you ever get a chance to give this a sniff, definitely do.
So those were the products, ones that I quite frankly, couldn't believe my eyes to see on Notino this month.
What do you think of them? Have you tried any of the exact products or brands in general before? If so, what did you think of them? And have you ever thought about shopping on Notino?
