NEXT Paradise Wardrobe

I thought I would review a perfume set. One of the scents in the set is already known to me, but I was mostly interested in trialling the other two scents and seeing how they differ.

The bottles are small glass cuboids with silver plastic lids. They all have the regular perfume spritzer. Each one has a different colour theme; Blue (Escape), Pink (Paradise) and Green (Island). Each bottle holds 15ml of the eau de parfums.
Paradise Escape

Top Notes: Bergamot & Verbena
Base Notes: Musk & Sandalwood

This scent smells quite fresh and you definitely get the hint of musk, verbena and rose. It also kind of smells masculine, but not really noticeably. It does remind me of an ocean type scent.
 Paradise

Top Notes: Apple & Lemon
Middle Notes: Magnolia & Rose
Base Notes: Sandalwood & Musk

I love this scent and I have for years. Next keep discontinuing this scent and then a couple years later, they bring it back. I got my first bottle when I was quite young and I have bought it on and off since then. Each time it is brought back, it has a new bottle and new theme, but the same classic scent. It smells really bright and fruity and you get the subtle floral notes. I can mostly detect the magnolia and apple with the sandalwood.
 Paradise Island

Top Notes: Mango & Guava
Middle Notes: Coconut Water & Pineapple
Base Notes: Sandalwood & Musk

This one smells quite fruity and you really get the hints of the coconut and pineapple. The coconut makes it smell slightly softer and it reminds me of a tropical beach.

I thought I would like Island the least because it contains coconut water and I don’t like coconut scents at all. The Escape was my least favourite and was kind of disappointing; I thought it would smell more floral. The original Paradise is of course my favourite of the three and I kind of already knew it would be. All of the scents do last a while on the skin, but I find Paradise to be the longest lasting. This is a great set if you want to try before you buy a full sized bottle, which is why I will not be re-purchasing this set.

Perfume Power! - Harajuku Lovers 'G'

I received this perfume as an Easter gift from a family member. The bottle design is really cute. It has a doll figure cap, which lifts off and the actual bottle is clear and simple glass, it kind of has a flower shaped base. The size I have is very small, so it is handy for your handbag. And I suppose you could keep the doll for collector’s purposes, when you have used up the perfume. The fragrance notes are:- Top Notes: Crisp Mandarin, Fresh Coconut & Apple Skin Middle Notes: Jasmine Sambac, Soft Freesia & Magnolia Vapour Base Notes: Coconut Cream, White Sandalwood & Cottonwoods To me it smells really strong for an eau de toilette. I quite like the scent because it is very feminine and quite sweet. The only thing I don’t like about it is the coconut. I don’t really like the coconut scent anyway. Other than that, it smells amazing, until the coconut hits your nose. I can also smell the floral side to it as well, the coconut does complement the flor...

Graze - Box #10

I have another Graze box post for you today. I am thinking of stopping these posts soon because it is starting to feel compulsory and I need to post more relevant beauty related content. A closer look at my treats. Graze’s Popping Corn ‘Lightly Salted’ I have tried this before and it is really nice and not overly salty. You get quite a bit of corn in the bag too, even though it is a small packet. Lightly Toasted Pistachios “Whole pistachios toasted with a little salt” I have had this packet before too and I just love pistachios! Tomato & Basil Pizza “Basil crunchini, cheese cashews & mini tomato breadsticks” This is my first experience with this packet, but each snack has been in other packets I have tried before. The crunchini is very nice and it’s just like croutons. The cheese cashews are nice and I do still really like the tomato breadsticks/baguettes. Herby Bread Basket “Basil baguettes, garlic crostini and oregano ric...

Glamour Magazine - July 2013

Yesterday I picked up the new edition of Glamour Magazine, well three copies of them actually! It is the July 2013 edition and you get a choice of five free MODEL CO products and four different magazine covers ( Rebel Wilson , Zooey Deschanel , Myleene Klass & Daniel Radcliffe ). I have never heard of the MODEL CO brand before, but judging by their website, they are marketed as high end. I’m not sure what size the items in the magazines are, but I have listed the full sizes and prices below. FIBRE LASHXTEND Mascara - £28 SHINE Ultra Lip Gloss in Strip Tease - £12 SHINE Ultra Lip Gloss in Showgirl Red - £12 COLOURBOX Eye Pencil in Black 01 - £14 LIP ENHANCER Illusion Lip Liner - £16 I decided to pick up two copies because this month’s edition is £1 instead of £2.
