Perfume Power! - Diesel 'Loverdose'

Photo: TheFragranceCounter.co.uk
I received this perfume as a Christmas present and it was part of a gift set. This is the eau de parfum version of the fragrance.

The bottle is very gorgeous indeed! The bottle is made of glass and it is heart shaped with amethyst colouring. If you look closely at the bottle you can see that the spray also acts as a sort of dagger, ‘a dagger to the heart’. Also the edges of the heart are not straight, which means the bottle can be stood three different ways, only two of the ways work for me because when it is stood on the longest edge it falls over, but once I've used more of the perfume up that might solve the problem!
The fragrance notes are:-

Top Notes: Mandarin & Star Anise
Middle Notes: Jasmine, Gardenia & Liquorice
Base Notes: Amber, Vanilla & Wood

This perfume is described as being oriental with a liquorice heart. It is definitely more of a night time scent because it is quite strong and sexy smelling and lasts a long time on the skin. The liquorice is definitely the strongest note and sometimes I think it is too strong because I don’t like liquorice, but I do really like this scent. It reminds me of a masculine type scent but I think the star anise and the mix of floral notes make it very feminine and sort of fruity smelling.

I do not wear this perfume often, partly because I identify it as being a night time/clubbing scent and I would not get much use out of that sort of scent, but I do really like wearing it and I LOVE the bottle. Heart shaped and purple, who wouldn’t love that? J

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...

BIG NEWS: Next Paradise IS BACK! ❤

As you may have noticed from the title I am excited! I actually found out on Christmas Eve but forgot to mention it to you, are you ready? NEXT PARADISE PERFUME IS BACK IN BUSINESS! ! ! ! I’m not sure when it was re-launched and I don’t know whether it was temporary for Christmas, but from what I can tell the website still have it in stock, so who knows. I just hope that it stays so I can re-purchase it again. On the website it shows the perfume in its re-branded state and I must say the bottle looks lovely and it is now £10 for 100ml, instead of the previous £12 for 100ml, so even more WOW! Click here to read the review I posted on this perfume. £10 – 100ml – Click Here! So will you be picking it up? Because I definitely 100% recommend it! J

Jeffree Star Cosmetics X Shane Dawson Conspiracy Palette

I managed to get my hands on the new JSC x Shane Dawson palette on launch day! It took a few hours to complete the purchase online, but I didn’t give up. I have been following the journey of the creation of the whole collection on YouTube and everything is eye catching. I decided to only pick up the main palette this time; I usually buy at least one liquid lipstick from every JSC collection launch. Also available from the collection was the Mini Controversy Palette. I really love the shades Controversy and My Apology from the palette, but I knew I wouldn’t get much use out of the other shades, which is why I decided against purchasing it. There are also six velour liquid lipsticks (none of the shades appealed to me), pig mirrors, make-up bags/cases, clear version of the gloss and a lip balm. I believe the lip balm is only available in the USA. You can buy the products in bundles or buy the items separately. The packaging of the Conspiracy Palette slightly resembles the cas...
