Haul: My Last Day! :(


Today I completed my six weeks of work experience. I was volunteering at a business centre on reception and I really enjoyed it. Before I started I was initially unsure because I had not done that type of work before and I am quite shy around people I have not met before and I suffered quite badly from social anxiety, but everyone was very nice and welcoming.

Anyway, I received some lovely gifts from the reception staff, a thank you card and a glowing reference. I also got a strawberry frosted cupcake which was very tasty, but I forgot to take a picture of it before I ate it! Let’s get into what I received.
The gifts are very girly of course, firstly is the Possibility Pamper Salon Gift Set, which is the high street version of Philosophy. The set includes a pink body exfoliator; shower gel, body lotion and body mist. These are scented with Raspberry Pavlova, which smells amazing. Next I got a Baylis & Harding Gift Set in the Sweet Mandarin & Grapefruit scent. The set includes a cleansing face soap, balancing body wash and indulgent moisturising body lotion and these also smell really nice. I also received the 17 Electric Disco Purse Set, which I have had before and includes a Fast Finish Nail Polish in Nightshade, High Gloss Nail Polish in Risky Red, Nail Xtras Glitter Top Coat and a small nail file all in a cute little purse. The last two items are a slinky bracelet and a small black clutch/purse with silver inside it! ;) All of the items were in a really pretty flowery gift bag.

I hope to work in a place like that again because I enjoyed all the tasks and duties I completed. I have definitely gained more knowledge, skills and experience and hopefully I will find the right job for me very soon!

Thank you for reading.

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...
