Dior Addict IT-LASH Mascara

Back in May 2014, I received a birthday voucher through e-mail from FeelUnique.com. It was a gift from the website, as I am a loyal customer and it was my birthday. I searched the site and nothing took my fancy, until I saw this mascara! It is quite expensive and I thought it would be worth using the voucher for something I wouldn’t purchase for full price.

The tube packaging of this mascara is beautiful! It is made of black plastic and it has that distinctive Dior block design with the little silver nib (like the lipglosses). On the back of the tube, the brand name Dior has been stamped into the tune. On the front of the tube, the mascara name has been printed it silver lettering. To open the tube, your twist the little nib and pull and this reveals a small rubberised brush. The brush is barrel shaped with small spiky bristles. Dior calls it their elastomer brush because it is soft and should reach all your lashes, even the tiniest ones! The formula feels rich and creamy and looks pitch black! It comprises of a thickening wax and a clear gel base, to give your lashes a rich block colour look. You get 9ml of product in the tube and the shade I have is IT-BLACK (it also comes in purple, blue & pink).
This mascara is supposed to give your lashes amazing and instant volume and length. It should be very easy to apply and the effects should hold all day. Also, at the end of the night, it should be very easy to remove.

I love this mascara! It has my preferred flexi rubber type brush wand, which makes it very easy to apply to your top and bottom lashes. The formula dries really fast and it is not clumpy, which means it gives your lashes the instant effect and it holds all day. It is slightly lengthening and very voluminous. Taking it off is not a hassle, but I wouldn’t say it is noticeably easier to remove then previous mascaras I’ve tried. Overall this is a wonderful mascara and I love it, but you can definitely find less expensive alternatives that will give you a similar, if not the same effect.

Boots.com Haul #2 + Blog Sale Purchase

I thought I would share a haul with you today. I haven’t done one for a while but I recently ordered a few items from Boots and I wanted to let you know about it. I bought the Real Techniques Brush Cleansing Palette , which includes two sample sachets of the deep cleansing gel. I have been waiting for something like this and I cannot wait to try it. I simply refuse to buy the Sigma version, plus I don’t think it needs to be that big. I also got a packet of the Oral-B Precision Clean Electric Toothbrush Heads because they were on offer and I got eight for the price of four. I got four tubes of the Soap & Glory Sugar Crush Hand Sanitiser because I absolutely love the scent and I wanted to put them in difference rooms so they are always to hand when needed. I bought a back-up of the Rimmel Match Perfection Foundation , which is my favourite foundation and I use the shade 010 Light Porcelain. Lastly, I got the Rimmel Brow This Way Styling Gel in Clear. It is the second tube I...

Serial Sampler #31

This is a new perfume release for this year. I came across it by pure chance when I was asked to choose some free samples when I made a FeelUnique.com order. This scent was one of the two I chose to receive. It is Irresistible by GIVENCHY and it is a 1ml spritzer sample of the eau de parfum. “ Rose effervescent. Luscious rose dancing with radiant blond wood ” It contains a mixture of notes such as; Pear, Ambrette, Rose, Iris, Virginia Cedar and Musk. When it is first sprayed, it kind of smells like soap. As it starts to dry down, it still smells slightly soapy but the ambrette, rose, iris and musk notes start to peek through. Once it has fully dried down it smells less soapy and more florally. It is definitely a more soft mature scent. It does smell nice, fresh and does remind me of spring. It isn’t a scent I am typically drawn to, so I probably will not buy a bottle of it. I would say the ambrette, rose and musk are the strongest notes. You can buy it in 35ml (...

Serial Sampler #32

I received this perfume sample for FREE when I spent over a certain amount of money on a LookFantastic.com order. I actually purchased the full sized bottle (90ml) of the Yves Saint Laurent Libre Eau de Parfum.   It is My Way by Armani and it is a 1.2ml spritzer sample of the eau de parfum.   It contains a mixture of notes such as; Bergamot, Orange Blossom, Tuberose, Indian Jasmine, Madagascar Vanilla, White Musk and Virginian Cedar. This strikes me as a mature scent. It smells like something I have tested before, but I can’t quite recall the name of it. It is a very delicate and light fragrance and is definitely floral based. It is not my typical scent, but I do appreciate it. I can really smell the bergamot, tuberose, jasmine and musk notes. I would recommend it, but I personally wouldn’t wear it.   You can buy it in 30ml (£55/$74), 50ml (£76/$97) and 90ml (£103/$126) and it is available at places such as; ArmaniBeauty.co.uk and Sephora.   | I received this sampl...
