Blogmas #18 | Soap & Glory Loved & Glossed™ Gift Set

I was in Boots the other day and I saw this gift set and I knew I had to have it. I have wanted to try these Sexy Mother Pucker™ Gloss Sticks for a while now, but I wasn’t sure which shade I wanted. This gift set has three shades and because the set is £16, you are getting one shade for free. I would have waited for the half price Boxing Day sale, but I didn’t want to risk not getting them.
The packaging is made out a hard black plastic and is barrel shaped, like other chubby sticks. The typography and colouring make the packaging look very sleek. To dispense the product you need to take off the cap, which is very secure and twist the bottom of the pencil. Soap & Glory say that the formula is a mixture of their Gloss-Fix Finish™ and Ultimelt™ Lip Shine & Shaping Technology. You get 2.72g in each stick and there are currently five shades to choose from. In this gift set you get three of the shades, which are Nudist, Fuchsia-Ristic and Plum Jam. They are packaged inside a cute little tin.
Nudist is a beige toned nude, Fuchsia-Ristic is a slightly neon, light fuchsia pink and Plum Jam is a nude berry, slightly plum purple in tone.
This product is supposed to feel light, hydrating and moisturising. The texture should be creamy and glide on effortlessly. It is also mean’t to give your lips a wash of colour that can be built up and add lots of shine.
I really love this product. It is definitely my type of gloss because it is not sticky and it is in a twistable stick form, so I am in love! The formula is really light and creamy, which makes it glide onto your lips like a dream. It is hydrating, but the moisture only lasts as long as you are wearing it. It adds a slight wash of colour and you can build it for a full colour look. And like a lipgloss should be, it is very glossy and packed with shine. It will last for around two hours on your lips without refreshments and it has a really nice slight vanilla scent.

Overall this is a brilliant gift set and the product for me is perfect. I am not one for lipgloss, but in this form it is just like lipstick, but shiny. The only problem I have it that it can be a pain to get the products out of the tin, but this will not trouble me for long because their new home in my make-up collection awaits them!

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...
