The ‘underconsumption core’ trend on TikTok has really made me think about the beauty products I already own and has also made me be more mindful about what I buy. So I thought I’d put together a beauty wish list of products I’m interested in but I know there are only a couple of things on the list that I’ll probably end up buying because of my new thought process about the things I own and things I want and actually need.
LUSH Space Girl Body Spray RRP £25 // Method Pure Peace Body Wash RRP £6.50 // 17 Blush Drops in Pink Dusk RRP £4.50First up on my list is the LUSH Space Girl Body Spray RRP £25 which is already making things difficult because I definitely don’t need any new fragrances, I literally have a shelf in my wardrobe with a rotating beauty organiser which is full of perfumes and mists but LUSH's Space Girl bath bomb used to be one of my favourites and I was sad when they discontinued it so the fact they’ve brought the scent back in a Limited Edition Body Spray is really making me want to just buy it.
I’m a big fan of Method products and I’ve seen quite a few people recommend their body washes and the Method Pure Peace Body Wash RRP £6.50 literally sounds like it was made for me. It’s infused with Peony, Rose Water and Pink Sea Salt as I love anything Peony-scented.
The 17. Blush Drops in Pink Dusk RRP £4.50 look very nice. I’m a sucker for buying blush so I can see myself picking this up soon, at least it’s one of the cheaper products on this list lol.
I’m a big fan of the Fenty Cookies N Clean Whipped Clay Face Mask, it’s one of my favourite face masks so I’m pretty sure I would like the Fenty Skin Cookies N Clean Intensive Pore + Blackhead Face Scrub RRP £25 and it would obviously work well within a skincare routine with the other Fenty Skin products I own.
I do tend to struggle with ingrown hairs when I shave. I have found some products over the years which have helped to reduce them but my two go-to products have been discontinued recently, which is really annoying and the products I’ve been using in their place work okay but definitely could be better. I saw the Smooth Appeal Ingrown Hair Lotion RRP £9.95 and I’m definitely intrigued to see if it works and helps to reduce them.
The Blossom Perfumery 060 | Chloe (Inspired By) From RRP £15.95 is inspired by the Chloe perfume which smells lovely but it is quite pricey and the Blossom Perfumery’s inspired by fragrance has some great reviews. They also sell a lot more inspired by fragrances as well.
Glossier Creme de You RRP £45 // Erborian CC Cream RRP £45 // Milk Makeup Cooling Water Jelly Tint Stick RRP £22I definitely can’t justify buying the Glossier Creme de You RRP £45 right now and to be honest, I think would rather spend the extra money on the perfume but I do like that they are adding more products to the You range. I’d personally love to see a body mist. It’s one of my favourite fragrances and I always get compliments when I wear it.
I feel like the Erborian CC Cream RRP £45 is the new It Cosmetics Your Skin But Better CC Cream because everyone seems to own it and I feel like I’m missing out. I do prefer a lighter base as I feel like heavier bases are harder to deal with when you have an oilier skin type so I may pick this up when I finish my current foundation and skin tints.
Lastly is the Milk Makeup Cooling Water Jelly Tint Stick RRP £22 I remember I really liked the Cooling Water Under Eye Stick and I like that you can use the Jelly Tint Sticks on both your lips and cheeks and that the colour is buildable so you can kind of customise the shade you want.

Also just a side note regarding the underconsumption core thought process... I am still accepting PR products/packages because they are technically for work and to create content about (if I choose to feature them) but I am being extra mindful about what I accept. Any product that isn't being used will be given to loved ones or to my local food bank if it's a new product.
