e.l.f Haul #2

As you can tell I placed another order with e.l.f. I did so because I had a list of items I wanted anyway, but was going to wait a while but, I saw the offer they had on. It was called The Flash Mob offer, it was open on the 28th and 29th of January between 10am and 10pm. You got free shipping and a goody bag worth £9 if you spent £10 or more on your order. So let’s see what I got.
Custom Eyes Compact - £1.50
Custom Eyes Eyeshadow in Sage - £1.50
6pc Eyeshadow Set in Smoky - £1.75 (on sale)
Professional Foundation Brush - £1.50
Professional Eyelash & Brow Wand - £1.50
Studio Single Eyeshadow in Purple Passion - £3.50
Studio Cream Eyeliner in Teal Tease - £3.50
Studio Daily Brush Cleaner - £2.45 (on sale)

As you can see a couple of the items were on sale. I think the brush cleaner is permanent though, but the palette I think comes out every year around Christmas, because I got the natural one for Christmas 2010 and then they disappeared after new year and I noticed they were back for Christmas 2011. There are still a couple of items I wanted, but were not in stock, so hopefully I can get them next time.

In my goody bag I got......
Nail Polish in Metal Madness – FREE (£1.50)
Pro Mini Eyeshadow Palette in Warm – FREE (£3.75)

Somehow my goody bag isn’t worth £9, I don’t know what happened there!L

O.P.I Breakfast at Tiffany's Mini Mani Month Set

I heard that O.P.I would be releasing a Breakfast at Tiffany’s Collection and I was really interesting in trying some shades, so when I was browsing the O.P.I website and came across this set, I snapped it up straight away! The packaging is like a white and lilac fashion book and it has a beauty advent calendar vibe. It is a sort of alternative to a beauty calendar. There are five rows with five shades covering two sides of the book. You can open the windows that cover the shades, but it will reveal all five shades, which is why it doesn’t quite pass as a calendar. Plus, you can’t actually take the bottles out like you would a beauty/chocolate calendar. You have to open the sides of the book and pull out the five separate plastic trays which hold the bottles. There seems to be a lot of wasted packaging this way. You get twenty-five 3.75ml bottles of Nail Lacquer and the set contains new shades from the Breakfast at Tiffany’s Collection, and some old favourites already pa...

GUCCI Mini Perfume Gift Set

Today I am going to review a perfume gift set that I bought from Boots.com during their Boxing Day sales 2014. It is the GUCCI Miniatures Gift Set and it was exclusively sold in Boots stores and on Boots.com. I love the concept of mini perfume sets and it’s a shame that not more brands do them! You get to sample more scents from brands, and if there is a certain perfume you are interested in, you would be able to sample it before potentially wasting your money buying a full size bottle of a scent you might not like. In this particular set you get five (5ml) mini fragrances to sample and I actually already bought a full size of the Guilty scent, but waited until I got this set to test it! A big gamble I know, but it did pay off this time! Here are the five miniature bottles of scents included:- FLORA BY GUCCI The bottle is so cute and with a little ribbon bow too. The notes contained in this little bottle are; citrus, peony, mandarin, osmanthus, rose, sandalwood, patchouli and ...

Serial Sampler #33

I once sent off for a perfume sample from Lancôme on Facebook and periodically they still send me samples of their new perfume releases. I received this one a while ago (ages after it first launched), but I have only just got around to testing it.   It is Idôle by Lancôme and it is a 1.2ml spritzer sample of the eau de parfum.   Launched: 2019   Type: Floral Notes Top: Pear and Bergamot. Middle: Turkish Rose, Rose de Mai and Indian Jasmine. Base: White Musk and Vanilla. It is a really light spring time floral scent. It isn’t too mature smelling and it is not overpowering. It reminds me of the Gucci Flora and Hugo Boss Ma Vie perfumes a little. I can really smell the Bergamot, Rose, Jasmine and Musk notes. It is a fresh floral scent and would be good for day time wear. I do really like it, although it isn’t my typical choice of scent. I personally won’t be buying a bottle of it, but I would recommend it and buy it for someone as a gift.   You can purchase the L...
