Penneys SS2018 men’s preview 

Taking inspiration from the sandy stretches to the streets of the city, Primark’s SS18 menswear collection is all about keeping it fresh. Our three distinct trends create the perfect mix for spring, taking you on a colour journey from the muted shades of Meadow Lab through to the deeper tones of End of the Road, with classic pops of colour being ever-present in Dog Town. Cool, sleek and urban – welcome to Primark SS18.

Creating a seamless transition from autumn into spring, Meadow Lab kicks off the new season. Inspired by a desert landscape, the neutral colour palette is comprised of earthy tones with soft touches of faded blues and burgundy, anchored by silver and beige. This combination of colours constructs a sense of freshly pressed yet timeworn outfits. Marble print tees and crisp shirts lay the foundation for this trend, whilst a layering of fine stripes and white denim all help to craft a relaxed and effortless aesthetic.

Dog Town creates that true spring feeling, with the introduction of brighter colours and metallic accents. A nod to its name, this trend has a street style edge, combining clean whites with pastel shades of pink, purple and yellow making a splash. Colour blocking is key to this trend, flawlessly blending athleisure and urban, with reflective and high-shine pieces. Key styles include acid wash denim, wide leg trousers and baseball jackets, whilst prints, slogans and collages create a youthful touch.

End of the Road leads us into the beginnings of high summer where holiday vibes are in full force in the form of neon, botanical prints and tie dye patterns. Tonal shades of coral, teal and boysenberry are three of the key colours taking centre stage. Stripes prevail but in more of a statement form, with warped graphics and ombre effects fashioning a psychedelic feel. A merge of Miami days and Shanghai nights, the satin bomber is the star of the show, with rip and repair denim, western shirts and peace symbols all making an appearance.

The SS18 collection is available from January to May 2018!

Hitting stores in September, the PS…Beauty Customise Your Eyes palettes offer you just that. The two palette options hold either four or nine eyeshadow pans, €2 and €3 respectively, and with a selection of 30 highly pigmented shades at just €1 each, Penneys beauty lovers can now to mix ‘n’ match colours to build their own flawless collection.

 

The thirty shades range from high-impact plums, statement oranges and golds to more understated classic nudes. The hero shades in collection include; Brick – a dazzling blend of light-reflecting pigments in an orangey tone; Hot Coco – a strong brown shade that suits all and Baked – a subtle taupe colour useful for blending.

Penneys Beauty picks!

I just popped into Penneys today to pick up a few bits and spotted these so thought I’d share!

The first item is this fab Make Up Brush drying rack which folds away so you can use it even if you’ve limited space for your beauty accessories. 


It’s ideal as it dries your brushes upside down, helping your brushes dry quicker and as the brushes are upside down this will make your brushes last longer as the glue which holds the hairs together in the brush ferrule won’t get damaged after washing. 

It’s only €5 so grab yourself a bargain & get washing. 

The second showstopper is this set of silver metallic handled make up brushes. 


They look more expensive than their €10 price tag, a little like Real Techniques and they are shaped to fit the contours of your hand so a firmer grip and better control for applying your favourite make up. 

The third and final piece I found and loved today is this pink metallic toiletry bag with metallic silver star detail for €5. 


it would be perfect for an overnight or weekend away to stash all your beauty essentials.

Nourishing Summer Beauty with CATRICE COSMETICS

While we hope the summer sun stays around, it can really take its toll on our bodies. Exposure to harmful UV rays and heat dehydrates the body and can lead to noticeably dry skin, hair, lips and nails. This calls for a little TLC from Catrice Cosmetics!

Summer is best time to embrace that au-natural glow – nourish, revitalise and achieve this healthy look with some essentials from Catrice Cosmetics, available from Penneys stores and pharmacies nationwide now.

Here are just a few nourishing summer beauty essentials by Catrice:
