Perfume Power! - Christina Aguilera 'Signature'


This was the first ever perfume I bought myself and I was still at school at the time. I only ever had the one bottle and it has been many a year since I used it up and last caught a whiff of this scent! I recently had a craving to smell it again, so I decided to get myself a bottle.

The bottle is made of glass and has a sort of hourglass/silhouette shape. There is a black flowery lace design all over the front of the bottle. The bottle design is apparently inspired by a dress that the designer Marcel Rochas made for actress Mae West. The clear plastic cap is almost diamond shaped and it lifts off to reveal a spritzer, which you press down to dispense the scent. You can purchase it in 30ml for £20.00 from AllBeauty.com and FragranceDirect.co.uk.

Launched: 2007

Type: Fruity with soft floral undertones.

Classification: Eau De Parfum

Notes
Top: Black Currant, Tangerine, Exotic Fruits and Pineapple.
Middle: Peony, Plum and Jasmine.
Base: Vanilla, White Musk and Amber.

Availability: 30ml (£20.00), 50ml (£30.00) and 75ml (£40.00).

I love the bottle design it is very simple, but elegant. The scent is very fresh, feminine and sensual smelling. It is mostly fruity, but it has soft and sparkling floral undertones. I have fallen in love with this scent all over again! I can mostly smell the peony, plum, jasmine, vanilla, white musk and amber notes. It is not an overpowering scent at all. I would class it as a daytime wear and it kind of reminds me of spring. It does last a very long time on the skin, but it will fade throughout the day as it is a soft fragrance. I am so glad that I decided to purchase this perfume again and I am happy it was still available for purchase as it is now thirteen years old! I would highly recommend it and I would consider re-purchasing it again once I have finished this bottle (if it is still available - fingers crossed!).

Oden's Eye Solmåne Eyeshadow Palette

I first heard of this indie brand through watching Angelika Oles’ beauty channel on YouTube. Oden’s Eye is a Swedish indie brand and they make Norse mythology themed products. This is one of two eyeshadow palettes I decided to purchase; I also picked up the two matching highlighter palettes.   THE PACKAGING The packaging is small and rectangular in shape. It is made out of cardboard and it has a sort of textured covering (like on pogs). The design and imagery is so unique to the brand. Solmåne means the sun and moon in Swedish. Sol represents the Sun Goddess and Måne represents the Moon God. Both Gods are represented on the packaging. There is a colour split of warm and cool toned shades (lavender, pink, orange & yellow) along with moon, star and Norse symbols. The wheel around the Gods is metallic gold, so it really reflects the light when you move the palette around. The eyeshadow shade names are printed on the back of the palette. The palette has a magnetic closing/opening, ...

Empties #10 - August & September 2013

I have combined two month’s worth of empties again. At the end of August my box wasn’t that full, so I decided to carry on collecting and hope I use up more stuff. The majority of stuff I used up was necessities as usual, but there are some extra bits too. Here is what I managed to use up within two months:- Morrisons So Clear Dual Action Moisturiser | 100ml I have used another tube of this and have already re-purchased it. It works really well and doubles as a hand cream and most importantly, it is very inexpensive. Price - £1.49 Listerine Total Care Mouthwash in Clean Mint (Purple) | 500ml This is my favourite mouthwash and I have already re-purchased it. Although I get it for around £2.99, I still wish it was cheaper. Price - £4.60 Right Guard Women Total Defence 5 48H Invisible Power Anti-Perspirant Deodorant | 150ml + 250ml I have used more of these as usual and I still haven’t found anything that is better. I have however found a cheaper place to buy it f...

Review: Travalo Classic

I was sorting through some old pictures in my blog folder on my computer and I came across some Travalo pictures I took, and remembered I was mean’t to do a post about it. So better late than never, I am going to share with you how to use it and what I think. About the Travalo The Travalo is a small and handy perfume atomiser that allows you to decant a small amount of your favourite perfume into the tube and carry it with you, so you don’t have to carry around the bottle. It is made of strong, light aluminium and is 80mm in size and holds 4ml of liquid, which is approximately fifty sprays. It is also a “perfectly” rounded shape, which means there are no corners, so you don’t have to worry about it ripping your handbag, purse and pockets or scratching any furniture and surfaces. How to Use It If you want to decant some perfume to put in the Travalo you need to: 1. Take the spray cap off the perfume bottle 2. Get your Travalo and hold it upright over the spray s...
