Haul: My Last Day! :(


Today I completed my six weeks of work experience. I was volunteering at a business centre on reception and I really enjoyed it. Before I started I was initially unsure because I had not done that type of work before and I am quite shy around people I have not met before and I suffered quite badly from social anxiety, but everyone was very nice and welcoming.

Anyway, I received some lovely gifts from the reception staff, a thank you card and a glowing reference. I also got a strawberry frosted cupcake which was very tasty, but I forgot to take a picture of it before I ate it! Let’s get into what I received.
The gifts are very girly of course, firstly is the Possibility Pamper Salon Gift Set, which is the high street version of Philosophy. The set includes a pink body exfoliator; shower gel, body lotion and body mist. These are scented with Raspberry Pavlova, which smells amazing. Next I got a Baylis & Harding Gift Set in the Sweet Mandarin & Grapefruit scent. The set includes a cleansing face soap, balancing body wash and indulgent moisturising body lotion and these also smell really nice. I also received the 17 Electric Disco Purse Set, which I have had before and includes a Fast Finish Nail Polish in Nightshade, High Gloss Nail Polish in Risky Red, Nail Xtras Glitter Top Coat and a small nail file all in a cute little purse. The last two items are a slinky bracelet and a small black clutch/purse with silver inside it! ;) All of the items were in a really pretty flowery gift bag.

I hope to work in a place like that again because I enjoyed all the tasks and duties I completed. I have definitely gained more knowledge, skills and experience and hopefully I will find the right job for me very soon!

Thank you for reading.

Serial Sampler #39

I have another perfume sample to share today. Again, I can’t remember how long I have had this one, but I know I haven’t smelled it before. I always mean’t to test it sooner, but didn’t for reason, so now is the time!   It is Olympéa by Paco Rabanne and it is a 1.5ml spritzer sample of the eau de parfum.   “ The divine perfume with a fresh oriental signature; it’s sparkling green tangerine top notes reveal a unique salty vanilla accord. Then it’s addictive heart of captivating jasmine and ginger Lilly scents unveils a sensual ambergris and cashmere wood base ” Launched: 2015   Type: Oriental Floral / Feminine Notes Top: Water Jasmine, Green Mandarin and Ginger Flower. Middle: Vanilla and Salt. Base: Cashmere Wood, Ambergris and Sandalwood. I wasn’t really sure what to expect from this fragrance, I assumed it would smell like an ‘old lady’ floral but I was very wrong. It smells quite sensual and it is a perfect example of a deep oriental floral scent. I can really s...

e.l.f Earth & Ocean Palette

I haven’t purchased anything from e.l.f in the longest time. I happened upon a post of this palette on Instagram and the complimentary comments really peaked my interest in trying it for myself. Palettes I have tried from e.l.f. in the past haven’t been the greatest of quality; I kind of associate the brand as being for children, beginners or natural beauty wearers. I was also interested in the Retro Paradise Palette , but I thought I would get more use out of this one at the moment.   THE PACKAGING The packaging is quite simple with a clear/black outlined plastic rectangular shape. The fronting is transparent so that you can see the eyeshadows from the outside of the palette. It has a clip closing, which you push apart to reveal the inside. The square eyeshadow pans are spread out across a black base and the shade names are printed in grey font under each pan. THE EYESHADOWS & FORMULA You get eighteen 0.94g eyeshadows in Matte (M), Metallic (ME), Glitter (G), Satin (S) and Shi...

HUDA BEAUTY The New Nude Palette

I currently own all four of the big HUDA BEAUTY palettes, and I fell for the colour story of this one as soon as I saw it. The designs for the bigger palettes always look stunning! THE PACKAGING The packaging is quite simple and made of nude pink cardboard, but it has Huda’s face on the front. Huda’s eyes are closed and it looks like she is wearing a fascinator, which is covering part of her face. The palette has a magnetic closing and you just lift it up to reveal the mirror and square eyeshadow pans. THE EYESHADOWS & FORMULA You get eighteen eyeshadows with a net weight of 19.7g in Matte (M), Reflective (R), Glitter (G), Pressed Pearl (PP) and Cream Base (CB) finishes. ·         Insane Pigmentation ·         Flatter any skin tone ·         Cruelty-Free   THE SHADES & SWATCHES Stripes Double 18 Pan by SwatchPerfect.co.uk Bare - soft pinky peach ...
