So when The Makeup Show comes to Los Angeles annually to brighten up a dreary winter (okay, not that dreary, this is Southern California), I instantly perk up. Rows and rows of booths lined in an event space filled with makeup brands I love, brands I want to know more about and brands I can’t believe I’ve lived without for this long, not to mention full schedules of makeup demos, workshops and keynote speakers. This is my Shangri-Lah.

Obsessive Compulsive Cosmetics, a 100% vegan and cruelty-free line, has outdone themselves with their Lip Tar, the perfect hybrid of lipstick and lip gloss.

• When it comes to getting a regular mani I’m ashamed to admit I’m a total slacker, but Cult Nails Nail Polish in Charming, a sheer, but brilliant, purple with a touch of shimmer, is so pretty it makes me want to take that extra time to at least do a DIY job at home.
