Perfume Power! - Christina Aguilera 'Woman'

I decided to buy this perfume as it was on my test list on Fragrantica and I saw it for a decent price. I have been struggling to find places to buy perfume samples lately, so I took a gamble and bought the smallest bottle size I could.

I got the 30ml bottle in the eau de parfum. The bottle is made of glass and kind of an hourglass shape, just like some of Christina’s other perfumes. It has a yellow gold flower design on the thinnest part of the bottle and Christina’s name is printed in hot pink and the perfume name printed in yellow gold. It also has yellow gold banding around the neck for the cap to sit on. The cap is clear plastic and kind of diamond shaped. It has a slight yellow gold spritzer to dispense the scent. On the outer cardboard box it had this description; “A sensual combination of golden amber and white flowers - radiating femininity the way a woman does”.

The fragrance notes are:-

Top Notes: Bergamot, Pink Pepper, Litchi & Pear

Middle Notes: Magnolia, Honey, Violet Leaf & Rose

Base Notes: Sandalwood, Tonka Bean & Amber

I like the bottle design and it follows the other three Christina scents that I’ve had (Christina Aguilera, By Night and Unforgettable). The scent is very light and fresh smelling. It is very feminine and I would class it as a soft floral scent. You can really smell the magnolia, litchi and amber. It lasts a few hours on the skin, but won’t last as long as Christina’s other scents as it is quite light. I actually quite like this scent overall. It is not my favourite of Christina’s, but it is inoffensive. It reminds me of spring going into summer, if that makes sense? I’m not sure that I would actually re-purchase it though.

Perfume Power! - Soap & Glory™ 'Eau De Soap & Glory'

I bought this because I already had the first Soap & Glory perfume and I really loved the Mist You Madly line scent. The bottle is cuboid shaped and made of opaque black glass. It has a regular perfume spritzer and the cap is clear plastic and T shaped with a pink woollen sash wrapped around the base. On the front of the bottle there is a pink foiled sticker with the Soap & Glory logo. The fragrance notes are:- Bergamot, Cassis, Magnolia, Freesia, Vanilla & Musk This perfume is a strong florally and musky scent. It is quite sweet, but not overpowering. The bottle is also a classic design, so you can re-use as decoration if you peel the sticker off the front. It is the Formula 2 scent, which is what some of Soap & Glory products smell like (The Daily Smooth, Clean Girls, Mist You Madly etc.). I can really smell the bergamot, freesia and musk. It has a sort of masculine smell and does last for a while on your skin. It is a must have if you love the Mist...

Maybelline SuperStay Matte Ink Lipsticks

I tried these lipsticks a while ago and I did recently de-clutter them all (April). I thought I would still share the swatches with you for reference. I only de-cluttered them because I didn’t use them, not because I didn’t like them. Poet (60) - soft beige pink Seductress (65) - dusty beige rose Amazonian (70) - rich caramel brown Fighter (75) - rich gingerbread brown Self-Starter (130) - muted smoky peach Ground-Breaker (117) - dark orange red Lover (15) - dusty rose Ruler (80) - marsala red Voyager (50) - cool toned wine red Heroine (25) - bright scarlet red Creator (35) - bright violet Believer (40) - dark eggplant purple These matte liquid lipsticks are mean’t to be long lasting and stay on for twelve hours. They should also have intense colour pay-off and be non-drying to the lips. The arrow shaped applicator is mean’t to make it easy and more precise to apply the product to your lips. You can purchase them for £9.99 each from Boots,...

Anastasia Beverly Hills X Jackie Aina Palette

This palette is in collaboration with Jackie Aina, who is a Beauty Influencer on YouTube. It is mean’t to be limited edition, but it has been out almost a year now and it is still for sale. I feel like it didn’t quite get it’s full moment and time to shine as the Carli Bybel (also a Beauty Influencer on YouTube) collaboration palette was released not long after. Up until the pandemic hit, Anastasia Beverly Hills were known for quickly putting out new products with little time left in between new launches. Nevertheless, this palette does look beautiful. The packaging is the usual ABH slim rectangle shape and it is made out of metallic faux leather and has a crocodile scale print. The base of the print is a kind of nude shade and it reflects green, blue, pink, yellow, orange and purple. Almost like a duo-chrome eyeshadow. It has a magnetic closing which you lift up to reveal the inside. The inside has a black base containing the small square eyeshadow pans, the shade names are w...
