5 Double Duty Sleepover Essentials

So dates have turned into first sleepovers, the start of fun, intimacy and the not so fun of hauling all your day to day items back and forth. As a bit of a beauty junkie (I work in the beauty industry by day), I have a plethora of products I use on a daily basis. For sleepovers though, I have a ruthless edit of old and trusty favourite that have double duty functions. So here are my top beauty favourites for first sleepovers.
Rosebud Salve
I don’t think this cult classic needs an intro. A nourishing lip balm that comes in a generous portion, this lip lover can also serve as a cheek tint to add a pop of colour. Use sparingly. www.adorebeauty.com.au
A’kin Rosehip Oil
100% organic, this little bottle is one that gives in SO many ways. A quick absorbing oil, I use it as a moisturiser AND a gentle makeup remover. To remove eye makeup, I’ll dab a drop of the Rosehip oil on a cotton bud. Also great on dry cuticles or hands.
Benefit BrowZing
We first wrote about Benefit BrowZine in first date makeup but we love it so much it needs another mention. Brows frame the face and even if you are left sans makeup the next morning, you can still fake a fresh faced look with nice brows. This kit comes with a wax and powder, tweezers and a mirror to boot.
YSL Touche Eclat
Highlighter to brighten the whole face, this classic is worth the splurge. Some say you shouldn’t use it as a concealer but it works for me. Use it to make your eyes and lips pop. There are some great touche eclat tutorials out there.
Bamboo Style Translucent Dry Shampoo
I purchased this travel size dry shampoo at Sephora recently and it will be missed when I’m through with it. It’s the best dry shampoo I’ve encountered since Klorane. I won’t go into the benefits of dry shampoo assuming you already know but as it’s lightly fragranced, I use it as a body spray as well.
