LBB Crew's Favourite Beauty Empties For The Month Of September 2024

Lucky for me, I had been catching more flights than feelings last month, and these eye patches from TonyMoly were my constants. My under-eye area is super prone to dryness and tends to feel parched on flights because of the low air pressure, so I absolutely can’t do without nice eye masks (no matter how much my co-passengers judge me). These hydrogel ones just do the trick, with snail mucus and aloe extracts keeping everything hydrated without feeling sticky.

This year, I have been obsessed with wearing lip liners and topping it up with a gloss (or hydrating lip balm) for my lip game. The Huda Beauty Lip Contour in the shade Warm Brown has been one of my go-to, and I would like to happily report that I need a restock ASAP. The shade is a warm-toned pinky-brown that suits light to medium skin tones really well and stays put for a good amount of time, so frequent touch-ups aren’t required, which is great for the upcoming festive season.

During the transition season, my skin often dries up, and hydrating becomes my only goal in life. This time, I tried The Body Shop British Rose Body Yogurt after a friend recommended it, and I've been thanking her ever since. It absorbs amazingly and leaves you smelling like roses. The only sad part is that I loved it so much that I finished it sooner than intended. It's going to be my dearest companion during the upcoming chilly weather.

My skin is pretty sensitive, and I trust only a few brands when it comes to putting something on my face. Yes, L'Oreal Paris Water Cream was something I was super sceptical about, but I’m so glad that I gave it a try. It makes my cheeks look plumper, and it is really hydrating. Another great thing is that it is a non-greasy formula, so there will be no clogged pores!

I'm already on my second bottle of this sunscreen, and I can promise you that this is one of the best! The watermelon extract not only hydrates but also gives the skin an exceptionally smooth, radiant glow. The lightweight quality is so pleasant that you want to use it every day.

Ever since I learned about skincare, I have been a hoarder of moisturisers. Nothing has come closer to the feel and subtle glow my skin radiates after applying a generous layer of Clinique's Moisture Surge. It is extremely hydrating, firms up the skin, is incredibly lightweight and always works as a flawless base for any makeup look. I will be restocking it for the upcoming season of festivities and fun.

I'll be re-purchasing the Rom&nd Juicy Lasting Tint—it's the perfect everyday sheer lip tint that's super lightweight and doesn't budge for a good three to four hours. The shade I use is 06 Fig Fig, and I can't wait to explore more shades in the product range!

I'll be re-purchasing the Lakme Forever Matte Lipstick in Espresso, it’s been my absolute go-to for over a year. It's the perfect brown shade, and its lasting power of three to four hours makes it my must-have for any occasion!

I have used this liquid gold very scrupulously, and it's officially time for a restock. This hair oil is a superior formulation of red champagne, jasmine sambac, and patchouli, with notes of ashwagandha and dashmool. It leaves your hair much healthier and shinier. Plus, it doesn't weigh your hair down. If you are a curly-haired girl looking for pre-wash hair oil, I cannot recommend anything more.

If I got a dollar for every time someone complimented me when I wore this body lotion, I would be very rich. I honestly cannot wait to restock it. Enriched with cocoa butter and vitamin B5, with warm vanilla notes dipped in caramel, this body lotion nourishes your body and makes you smell like a dreamy and delicious cupcake. It's also lightweight and non-sticky, so it's perfect for the impending winters.
