It’s that time of year again; Space NK give you £15 off when you spend £60 so that you can try something new. Actually, that time of year has been and gone, because the main event finished earlier this week, but I have an exclusive code just for readers of A Model Recommends. Enter AMR15 in the promo code box before checkout, anytime until midnight on Sunday (18th October) and you’ll get £15 off your online order.

Everyone always has their favourites to stock up on when these offers are running, but the idea behind the promotion is to actually explore brands or products you’ve never tried before. So in the spirit of beauty adventurousness (is that even a word?) I’ve been trying out new stuff. Here we go.

The Hourglass Ambient Lighting Palette. How it has taken me so long to give this a whirl I have no idea. It’s a one-stop-perfected-skin-shop with three different light-diffusing powders to blur fine lines and pores and give your face a gorgeous glow. Find more info here – it’s £56.

Caudalie Resveratrol Eye Lifting Balm – £36 here. I’ve been using this on undereyes and lids – it’s intensely hydrating and feels refreshing and cool without leaving the skin uncomfortably tight.

Aurelia Skincare Refine & Polish Miracle Balm, £57 here. I loved the cleanser, and now I have a newer love in this 2-in-1 product that can be used as an instant exfoliant or an enzyme mask. (Or if it’s body stuff you’re after, I cannot rave about their dry oil enough!) The tube I’ve pictured is a sample from a gift set, just in case you’re (pleasantly) surprised when the proper one turns out to be bigger!

Nail polishes from Smith & Cult (see the range here). Swanky packaging, cool names and colours that are all wearable and non-ridiculous. Which is rare. This is nail stuff for grown-ups – no ridiculous shades or stick-on cupcake shapes or whatever…

You can browse the virtual beauty shelves at Space NK here – again, the code for £15 off £60 order is AMR15 .
