Party season is officially here, and I don’t know about you, but I like to be prepared. Not just with the perfect outfit or shoes, but with a beauty bag full of products that actually deliver, the kind that keep you looking fresh, glowing, and ready for anything from after-work drinks to a full-on dance floor takeover.
Enter Watch This Space Volume 6: Party Season Power Players. This edit has 12 full-size essentials that I’ve been loving, split into three simple steps to party perfection. Let me walk you through my party-ready picks.
💋 IT’S ALL IN THE SMILE
A good party look starts with a smile that dazzles and these picks have you covered.
DR. PAWPAW Hot Pink Lip Balm
I can’t get enough of this multi-tasker. Lips, cheeks, even eyelids! It’s 98% natural, deeply nourishing, and buildable. Perfect for a soft glow or a bolder pop of colour.
e.l.f. Pout Clout Lip Plumping Pen – Pinky Out
This one gives your lips that extra oomph with a tingly plump and sheer wash of colour. It’s juicy, non-sticky, and effortlessly glossy. I always keep it in my bag for a quick refresh.
Pro White Flavoured Mouthwash Foam – Grape Flavour
Fresh breath that actually tastes good? Yes, please. This foam makes your mouth feel clean and juicy, without the alcohol or sugar bite. Instant confidence booster before you step out into the world.
✨ GLOW HARD, IT’S PARTY TIME
Next up, it’s all about radiance: subtle shimmer, glowing cheeks, and nails that catch the light just right.
The Beauty Crop Glow Milk Luminous Powder Blush – Cheerful
Talc-free, silky satin, and lightly shimmering. It gives my cheeks that “lit-from-within” glow, and I can control whether I want a soft flush or a bold pop of colour.
Essie Gel by Essie Top Coat – Diamond Dust
I layer this over any shade for instant sparkle. The silver and gold pearls catch the light beautifully. It’s perfect for any festive nail look.
delilah Stay The Night Smooth Shadow Stick – Pink Champagne
This crease-proof, long-wear shadow stick is my secret for effortless glam. One sweep and my eyes are ready for anything. Perfect for quick touch ups in the office bathrooms!
Spectrum A05 Angled Cheek Makeup Brush
The brush I always reach for when I want a pro-level finish. The angled bristles hug my cheekbones perfectly, giving me that contoured, radiant look with minimal effort. Love to pair it with The Beauty Crop Powder Blush!
💁 PARTY-PROOF HAIR AHEAD
Finally, let’s talk hair. Party season demands hair that looks good, feels good, and lasts all night, and these are my go-tos.
Lee Stafford Hair Perfume Mist – Original
A light spritz and my hair smells incredible, looks shiny, and frizz-free. It’s perfect for a quick refresh on the go.
MONDAY Haircare MOISTURE Leave-In Conditioner
I swear by this for hydration, shine, and heat protection. It keeps my hair soft and touchable, no matter how much partying is ahead.
GLOV COOLCURL™ Shower Comb
Because nobody wants a post-shower tangle. This eco-friendly comb detangles, distributes conditioner, and leaves my hair smooth and shiny.
ARKIVE Dry Texturising Spray
The finishing touch. A few spritzes and my hair instantly has volume and texture. It’s that “just-styled” look that lasts all night.
Honestly, this edit has made my party prep so much easier. Whether you’re heading to drinks with friends after work, a glam night out, or anything in between, these products have you covered.
So, what’s in my party bag? Well… now you know 😉
