As Breast Cancer Awareness month with all its pink campaigns draws to a close today, I’d love to share my very favourite pink beauty buys & finds with you.

I’ve been putting this post off for weeks now & after lots of deliberation I realised why. Because this is no quick fix. There is no ‘wow’ or ‘aha’ moment with this treatment.
