1st Haul of 2012

From Superdrug I purchased yet another Barry M Nail Paint. This one has been on my list for a while though, it is called 310 Mushroom and it is just a beige/brown colour, and cost £2.99, which gave me 2 BeautyCard Points.
Today from Boots I bought two Soap & Glory Gift Sets called ‘Soaper Heroes’ for £12.77 and ‘Yum At Heart’ for £8 (was £16). The Soaper Heroes gift set is not a Christmas one; I think it is a kind of permanent line set, whereas the Yum At Heart gift set was for Christmas. In the Soaper Heroes set you get a 100ml Girligo Body Mist, 50ml Righteous Body Butter, 50ml Flakeaway Body Scrub, 75ml Clean on Me shower gel and 50ml Hair Supply Hair Repair Mask. Soap & Glory describe this as a mini travel size selection of their most loved products. In the Yum At Heart set you get a 125ml Hand Food hand cream, 300ml The Breakfast Scrub and a Print Apron.
At the weekend I picked up a Maybelline The One by One Volum’ Express Mascara for £8.49 from Boots. There was an offer for Maybelline buy one product and get a cheaper one half price. So I bought my sister the same mascara but in waterproof and she got hers half price at £4.24, because I am a nice sister! ;P
From FragranceMad.com I bought two items. I came across this website recently because I typed Travalo in Google and it came up with this site and as it happens the Travalo product is cheaper on this site and so was the other item I purchased, so win win. Obviously I bought a Travalo, in the colour Black for £6.99 (RRP £9.99). I also got another Avril Lavigne ‘Black Star’ perfume in 30ml for £16.49.

Escada Collector's Edition Gift Set

I’ve always been interested in trying Escada fragrances, but there are so many to choose from and I didn’t want to risk buying a full size bottle. I came across this little gift set whilst I was shopping online at Boots and clicked buy straight away! All four fragrances are in a tiny, but cute 4ml potion looking bottle. Here are the four scents you get to try:- TURQUOISE SUMMER This bottle is a turquoise/clear theme and contains the notes; pineapple, strawberry, raspberry, blackcurrant, peach, violet, orange blossom, vanilla, sandalwood and musk. It smells really strong of orange blossom and kind of like a car air freshener. It does linger quite a while on the skin, but it is not really a strong scent. Overall I don’t like this scent. It doesn’t really smell of anything to me and what you can smell isn’t what I would call pleasant. I give this perfume 1/5 . BORN IN PARADISE This bottle’s theme is the same as Turquoise Summer and contains the notes; green apple, watermelo...

Serial Sampler #41

An advertisement popped up on Facebook with an offer of a free sample of this new fragrance and I clicked straight away! I have previously tested the original scent of this fragrance line and I loved it, so I was also expecting to like this one.   It is Born In Roma Yellow Dream by Valentino and it is a 1.2ml spritzer sample of the eau de parfum.   “ A floral lift of a thousand rose petals, twisted with a new clean and fresh addiction. ” Launched: 2021   Type: Floral / Feminine (Donna) Notes Top: Italian Lemon. Middle: Rose Essence. Base: Clean Accord and White Musks. This is a very soft and delicate floral scent with a fresh musk hint. It is definitely more floral smelling than the original Born In Roma fragrance. I can’t really detect the Italian Lemon. I can pick-up a fruity sort of hint, but it definitely isn’t lemon to me. I can detect the very light Rose Essence and White Musk and it does smell like a clean scent. It smells like a lovely spring day to me. I w...

Haul: Recent Purchases #3

I just wanted to share with you a few naughty purchases and I’m sure these won’t be the last of this month! From FeelUnique.com I finally got my hands on the Juicy Couture Duo Spray Set , which includes two 7.5ml purse sprays of Viva La Juicy La Fleur and Viva La Juicy . I also bought the Urban Decay Nirvana Build Your Own Quad Palette , as I eventually plan on buying some single UD eyeshadows and need somewhere cute to house them. Lastly, after deciding against the purchase, I listened to the little devil on my shoulder and got theBalm Balmsai Palette . From AllBeauty.com I bought a bigger size of the DKNY Be Delicious Fresh Blossom Perfume (50ml). I am still working my way through the 30ml, but I just couldn’t pass on the sale discount and I love the scent. I also decided to buy a 30ml bottle of Britney Spears Curious Perfume . It was so inexpensive and I wanted to own the fragrance again. I nearly bought the 100ml as it was equally inexpensive, but I haven’t smelled the...
