colours; mint, fuchsia or pearl pink, with a beautiful rose gold centre responsible for delivering a 20-minute sheet mask in just 90 seconds. Using Foreo’s mini masks, the UFO activates ingredients along with cooling, heating, T-Sonic pulsations and LED light therapy for spa- level bliss. Slightly cheaper for the pocket, T-Zone Rose Gold Peel Off Mask (£3.95, Superdrug) is fab for brightening skin, promising to help unclog pores. Or try the MasqueBAR Rose Gold Foil Peel Off Pod (£3.99, Next); in super-cute packaging it’s fab for travelling and leaves skin soft and supple. Another favourite in the sheet mask aisle is Seoulista Beauty Gold Glow Instant Facial (£14, soulistabeauty.com), with primrose oil and rose oil extract for a restorative, anti-ageing treatment. I love to follow a sheet mask with an oil and the Rose Gold Oil from Jane Scrivner (£30, janescrivner.com) is packed with rose oil for soothing and reducing redness, and jojoba for balancing and hydrating.

With the festive season almost upon us, it’s the perfect time to embrace this shimmering trend and add a little lustre to your look. For styling tools worthy of Instagram, the T3 SinglePass Luxe Straightener (£145, spacenk.com) is just dreamy. Forget about ghds, this ceramic-plated beauty can straighten, curl and shape and is set in white and rose gold with five adjustable heat settings. For a budget-friendly option, Lily England’s Deluxe Hair Straighteners in rose gold (£34.99, lilyengland.com) work wonders to banish frizz and smooth hair, with rounded handles that make it easy to create curls and volume. Fit for any magpie, the Lily England Face Makeup Brush Set in Rose Gold, (£24.99, lilyengland.com) is perfect for beauty beginners and professionals alike and would make a gorgeous Christmas gift. This five-piece vegan and cruelty-free make-up brush set includes brushes to apply foundation, powder/bronzer, blush/ highlighter and eyeshadow plus an angled brow brush with spoolie, all wrapped in a white and rose gold cosmetics bag. For skin, the Foreo UFO (£249, spacenk.com) comes in three gorgeous
I’m a total sucker for packaging, and new luxury brand Dear Dahlia has just launched in the UK, with ridiculously beautiful packaging. Rose gold and marble surround each of the products in the line, including beautiful lipsticks at £28, plus all products are vegan and cruelty free! Elsewhere, Kat Von D brings a touch of luxury to eye makeup with her Creamfoil Long-wear Eyeshadow in Crystal Rose (£17, Debenhams). This pretty pinky gold can be applied using fingertips for a super sheen, or a brush for a more subtle glow. THE ONE THAT I WANT
