Narrowing it down.

Rather than try and tell you about every single product that launches, an edit of hero buys highlights the best of the best. From budget to high-end, practical to pretty, the picks that feature below are actual must-haves. Victoria Beckham x Estée Lauder Bronzer in Java Sun, €58 The packaging is slick as and this is one way to channel the designer's style every day. A Victoria Beckham dress will just have to wait, sigh. You can use this matte bronzer to chisel sculpted cheekbones á la VB or dust all over for a sun-kissed sparkle. It's the perfect night out handbag companion and you'll be the envy of everyone in the ladies bathroom, natch. MAC Liptensity Lipstick, €22 Take your pick from a range of 24 shades. These buttery soft lipsticks glide on gorgeously, the perfect hybrid for someone who wants a colourful punch with a polished finish. I have a particular hankering for Driftwood and you can see a swatch in the below post.

Paese Artist, Contouring Palette, €22 Love it or hate it, the contouring craze isn't going anywhere soon. If you want to give it a go but are scared you'll end up with a muddy, streaky face, this palette is helpful for beginners. With a little practice, the trio of Light, Neutral and Warm will help you nail the defined face shape you're after. Urban Decay Full Spectrum Palette, €49 A kaleidoscope of rainbow hues. If you have a grá for colour and love creating new eye makeup looks, UD's new palette is for you. If you're a UD junkie, you might recognise Alchemy (fuchsia) from Vice 3 while Hatter (green) and Metamorphosis (blue) are courtesy of the Alice in Wonderland palette. Swatching and mixing, there are literally hours of fun to be had from the mix of shimmer, metallic and matte shades. It launched in the US on October 26th and in Ireland on November 3rd.

Sneak peek of what's to come…say hello to Full Spectrum —21 shades (18 are new!) from bold brights to matte white. #ColorUnleashed #UrbanDecay A photo posted by Urban Decay Cosmetics (@urbandecaycosmetics) on Sep 27, 2016 at 5:47pm PDT

Alfaparf Precious Nature: Cleansing Conditioner, €12.50 Making time for a weekly hair mask is easier said than done but honestly the DIFFERENCE when you do. However, thanks to cleansing conditioners which you can read more about here, you can now get all the hydration without going to the effort of a hair mask. Dry and damaged locks are instantly smoother, softer and shinier and of course, hydrated hair is much easier to manage. This fig and walnut mix smells amazing and it manages to cleanse and hydrate hair without weighing it down.

Try the ultra-gentle treatment powered by Precious Nature: Cleansing Conditioner. A soft caress that cleanses brittle hair without weight it down. #PreciousNature #AlfaparfMilano #myAlfaparf #beauty #hairdye #hairofinstagram #hairoftheday #coolhair #instahair #hairstyles #haircolor #fashion #lifestyle #look #lookoftheday #hairdo #treatment #salon #naturalstyle #healthyhair

Essence Camouflage 2 in 1 Makeup and Concealer, €4.40 A heavy-duty foundation for under a fiver, the beauty Gods have answered our prayers. If you have oily skin that gets super shiny around lunchtime, this will be your saviour. It's a full-coverage base that comes in Ivory Beige, Nude Beige and honey Beige and while the shade range isn't the most extensive, let's remember that it costs a fiver. Ideal for touch-ups on the go, and camouflaging bad skin days, this is 100 percent my budget pick of the month. Lanai BLO Professional Hair Dryer, €99 I have an absolute mane of hair and trying to tame it in the mornings is a struggle at the best of times. As my hair is so thick and heavy, I don't always have time for straightening/curling so the hairdrying part is key. Of course, it all depends on the hairdryer you're using and what it's equipped to do. Hairstylist to the stars, Katie-Jane Goldin, has just launched Lania BLO, a powerful hairdryer which gives you a fast-drying experience (YAY). Ionic technology helps reduce static hairs, it's lightweight so perfect for travel and best of all, you can get it engraved with your name.
