When it comes to moisturisers we all tend to stick to our usual skin care brands, afraid to make the switch for fear it would result in an some kind of astronomical skin reaction. But every so often it pays to be brave. I recently took a step away from my old reliable mosituriser to try Lush's Ultralight and I must admit, I was not disappointed.

Ultralight as the name suggests is both lightweight and non-greasy and is very easily applied. Packed with lots of organic natural ingredients including cold pressed oils, seaweeds and organic butters it quickly hydrates the skin without making your face look oily. Best still it protects from the harmful ageing effects of light by absorbing the sun's rays (just incase we do see any sun).

If there's one beauty product that every girl should have in her make-up bag then that has to be St Tropez's fantastic automatic shimmer powder brush (€24.95). This great brush is loaded with St Tropez's stunning bronzer powder and is perfect for adding a final touch of glimmer and glamour to your cheekbones, decollete, shoulders and body. It's also the perfect weapon for any of those last minute nights out and means that even though you might not have had time to apply tan, you can use this powerful brush to create that sunkissed look.

Chanel has just launched a gorgeous new mascara for autumn/winter 08, a product which women across the world will be dying to get their hands on.

Exceptionnel Mascara (€27.00) claims to have a volumizing, curling and lasting effect thanks to its sculptvolume comb which ensures a fine-tuned application. This gorgeous new mascara is available in four shades namely smoky noir, smoky brun, smoky marine and smoky violine.

There's no denying that girls love their gloss and I'm confident that many of them will especially love Rimmel's new Shock Gloss Lip Gloss (€6.55). Shock Gloss takes glossification to the next level so to speak with its ultra-thick lacquer finish. Available in a stunning crystal clear gloss as well as tinted shades it can be worn alone or over lipstick to create that super-sized lip look. Better still, it's packed with Vitamins, grape seed oil, ginseng extract and grape seed oil to keep lips moisturised and conditioned.

If your eye-liner can leave you looking more like a panda bear than a glamour queen then you simply have to try Smashbox's fab new Jet Set Waterproof Eye Liner (€18). This gorgeous gel liner glides on so easily and is completely waterproof. Simply apply with a Smashbox's eyeliner brush along the upper and lower lash lines in one simple stroke for a long-lasting, smudge resistant. Jet Set Waterproof Eye Liner comes in four shades namely midnight black, dark brown, bronze and navy blue.
