Serial Sampler #37

I’ve had this sample for a while now and I’ve only just decided to test it. I have already sampled the original scent of this fragrance line.

It is Candy Florale by PRADA and it is a 1.5ml spritzer sample of the eau de toilette.

“Prada Candy Florale is the scent of the perfect imaginary flower that Prada has created for Candy. Inspired by the purest flower, the white cosmos, the fragrance reveals a tender and unexpected floral bouquet”

Launched: 2014

Type: Floral & Fruity

Notes

Top: Limoncello.

Middle: Peony.

Base: Honey, Caramel, Musk and Benzoin.

I wasn’t expecting to like this fragrance as I didn’t like the original, but I was pleasantly surprised over how nice it smells. It is most definitely a floral scent with a slight fresh and fruity twist. It is not overpoweringly strong and I would say it is more of a feminine fragrance. It does have a slight sweetness but it isn’t too much. I can detect the Peony and Musk notes, but I cannot detect the Caramel note at all, which is good for me. I do really like this scent, but it isn’t one I would typically wear. I don’t think it really smells like the original scent at all, because I didn’t like that one. I would definitely recommend this scent over the original Candy.

You can purchase the PRADA Candy Florale Eau De Toilette in 30ml (£50.00), 50ml (£65.00) and 80ml (£80.00) from Prada.com.

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...

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...
