That lipstick is a gorgeous colour
So want the Eros lipstick and the Serene perfume oil.
I too received the perfume oil in a Discovery Bag, it was nice enough and quite spicy but not for me. This has made me try it again and it looks like I’m going to see if it stains clothing!
Tried the perfume oil as part of a BH discovery bag but wasn't a fan of the scent, too earthy for me. Loved the packaging though.
I quite like these articles, BH. Keep it up! Nothing for me this month but I like the updates.
I really like the look of that lipstick, such a pretty colour
I love the look of the lipstick and the sound of the perfume but there will be zero purchases for me. especially no perfume as im really working hard to finish 7 perfumes this year before I open new ones.
I wonder about the coriander in the Serene perfume oil: is it the herb or the spice? Coriander is one of my favourite spices, but I detest coriander herb.

Been away for a few days but it's fun to come back onto bh to find out the latest – love to catch up with this Insider. The innisfree product sounds great!
Thank You BH for a fantastic range of Products for January wouldn't mind trying Rageism Beauty Glow Face Oil would be a great Serum to try.
Interesting products, thanks for the heads up
Only like Fudge from here. And already using and have used in past, not new.
Glad to see that Essie is vegan friendly now!
I too love the lipstick which you can wear on its own without having to wear mascara or foundation.
Ooh it all looks very tempting!
the fragrance looks interesting
lovely products. The lipstick is a beautiful colour.
I like the sound of the perfume .
I've got a couple of brands of sunscreen in use at the moment, but will definitely want to try Bondi Sands when I need to buy more.
Unfortunately Daria won't be using her sunscreen much at the moment, I've tried the Rageism oil as part of the discovery bag, it's been sitting unused since I wrote my review, I really need to use it up – somehow. I really like the look of the Serene perfume oil, might be one to try.
How fantastic that Essie is offering a vegan range! Awesome!
The Serene perfume sounds like it would be lovely.
Serene Body Health Ground Perfume Oil sounds appealing too. I like these kind of oils, as they are portable and can be used anywhere. I’m a great believer in the powers of aromatherapy. I’ll look for this one so I can have a sniff, because it sounds Devine!
I have used the Rageism oil, I was part of a trial a while back, and I was very impressed. I’ll keep my eyes peeled my new Essie nail products too. Nail products without the nasties sounds absolutely amazing! Definitely on my shopping list!
The only product I really need is another tube of Fudge because I've just run out.
Dermal's Eczema & Dermatitis cream sounds soothing but what if you're allergic to oatmeal!!
Ground's perfume oil has interesting combinations while Rageism's Beauty Glow Face Oil sounds pampering
Collaborations are good but what is Ultra Violette's Clean Screen? Sunscreen? Biologi products are lovely
Good to hear essie has natural, no nasties nail polish
Yes I agree he lipstick looks lovely, a bit too red for me thought I think
innisfree Black Tea Youth Enhancing Eye Serum sounds really good, I will be looking out for it next time I am in the market for eye serum.
The ground perfume oil sounds divine
That;s a lovely looking lippie
I've heard good things about Ultra Violette
I love the look of that lipstick!
The Rageism facial oil sounds good.
Essie polish colour looks great.
I like the sound of the Rageism facial oil!!!
The Serene perfume oil sounds like just what I need right now.
I'm never really convinced by orange-toned lipsticks. As a fair skinned blonde, orange makes my skin and teeth look yellowish. Not attractive :S
That Dermal Therapy cream sounds like it would be perfect for my eczema-prone skin.
I really want to try the Essie nail polishes, but my nails are not in good condition right now; I think I'll have to wait until they look a bit better.
Interesting… But nothing screaming me for me to try…
I like the colour of lipstick.
Thanks for the update
Great news with Essie now vegan friendly
Bondi Sands must be doing well because I recently saw a YouTuber from the US praise one of their products.
i want to try everything!
