Review: Ted Baker 'Origami' Body Spray

I was interested in trying this body spray and I needed to get some things from Boots and noticed there was a 3 for 2 offer on, so I decided to get this as my free product.

The bottle design is quite simple. It is a plastic cuboid shaped bottle with a spritz applicator. The cap is a gold colour and on the front of the bottle is a sticker showing various folded pieces of paper in shades of pink. You get 150ml of product in the bottle.

The fragrance notes are:-

Rose, Sandalwood, Raspberry & Vanilla

It is definitely a strong mature scent, but still very feminine. I can actually smell all the notes, but the sandalwood stands out to me the most because I quite like sandalwood as a separate note. I think the hints of rose tone down the sandalwood so it is not so strong. Although it is a strong scent it is not overpowering, which I like. It also means this scent lasts a long time on your skin. It is definitely a scent I like but the sandalwood comes across a bit musky, which I think is responsible for it smelling mature and although it smells lovely it is not really me. But by no means is this scent an ‘old lady’ scent. I think it comes down to personal taste.

I don’t think I will re-purchase this because the scent is not really me, but I do really like it regardless. Maybe in a few more years it will be more appealing to my senses.

BECCA X Barbie Ferreira Prismatica Light Essentials Kit

I bought this set because the highlighters are mini and the packaging is purple. I have previously tried Champagne Pop (limited edition bronze glitter packaging) and I decluttered it last year. I remember not really getting the hype around it. I wanted to try the formula again in different shades and what is more perfect than minis for trying something out? The whole BECCA Prismatica Collection is in collaboration with Barbie Ferreira, who I believe is an American Actress/Model. I had never heard of her before and only looked her up for the purpose of this post. There was a Face Palette, Essentials Kit and Cheek Lip Duo Set. I believe the collection has now sold out, but the highlighters are still available as singles in the regular BECCA packaging. ABOUT THE PRODUCT The packaging is sleek, round and compact. The colour of the packaging for this collection is described as prismatic lilac. There is also a mini mirror inside the compact. This set originally retailed for £30.00 and it has...

Haul: Small Unmentioned Purchases

For today’s post I am going to share with you a few products that I have recently purchased and have not mentioned. I actually purchased one of the products last year but I thought I would include it anyway because I have not mentioned it before. The product I bought last year was from Asda and it is the Maybelline Color Tattoo 24 HR Cream/Gel Eyeshadow in Pink Gold . I bought it for £4.99 and I got it because I thought it was limited edition but as it turned out it is actually permanent. It is a gorgeous colour! Now for the products I have bought recently this year. The Urban Decay Oz: The Great and Powerful Theodora Palette for £35 from BeautyBay.com. I have used this palette a few times and I really like it. From Superdrug I picked up a Maybelline theROCKET Volum’Express Mascara in the shade Black because I was interested in trying it and I got it for £5.99 because it had a £2 off offer. From Home Bargains I picked up another can of the TRESemmé Extra Hold...

KALEIDOS Futurism VI: Lunar Lavender Palette

This is my second KALEIDOS palette and I bought it from the same Depop seller as last time. I also purchased the Futurism I: Sci-Fi Green and Futurism VII: Sashimi City Palettes, reviews on those will be coming soon. THE PACKAGING The packaging is a long thin rectangle shape and the concept reminds me of a wardrobe. There is a purple, pink and rose gold coral (the reef kind) and cloud theme all over the packaging. It has a magnetic closing and you open up the left side first and then the right side to reveal the circular eyeshadow pans and long thin mirror inside. The outside theme continues to the inside, but the colours are lilac, pink, peach and orange with rose gold. The eyeshadow names come printed on a plastic sheet. THE EYESHADOWS & FORMULA You get six 1.33g eyeshadows/pressed pigments in Matte (M), Duo-Chrome (DC) and Shimmer (S) finishes. · Rich and Velvety Texture · Smo...
