Serial Sampler #20

I received this perfume sample for free when I submitted my contact details on a Facebook App, which was offering the free samples. I actually forgot I sent off for one until I received it in the post.

It is Viva La Juicy Bowdacious by Juicy Couture and it is a 1.5ml spritzer sample of the eau de parfum.

“Cheeky, playful and forever fantastic. Viva La Juicy Bowdacious invites you into a world of luxe, pink, over-the-top fantasy! The solar fragrance splashes notes of Italian Mandarin while the Tiare flower gives a kiss of sunny skies and is warmed by the creamy addiction of coconut milk”

It contains a mixture notes such as; Italian Mandarin, Tiare Flower, Pear, Melon, Jasmine Sambac, White Ginger Lily, Coconut Milk, Tonka Bean and Driftwood.
When you first spray it on your skin, it does smell exactly like Viva La Juicy, but the coconut milk really starts to come through just after and changes it. It is a lighter fragrance than Viva La Juicy and it does remind me of spring. I thought the coconut milk and driftwood notes would be too overpowering and make me not like it, but I was wrong. I do like this fragrance, but I do prefer Viva La Juicy as it smells sort of sexier. I would recommend this for daytime wear and I think it suits all ages. I would consider purchasing a full sized bottle, but for now I won’t be.

You can buy it in 30ml (£42/$58), 50ml (£52/$79) and 100ml (£72/$99) and it is available at places such as; Boots and Sephora.

L'ORÉAL Volume Million Lashes So Couture Mascara

I bought this mascara and while ago with the intentions of reviewing it, but I only wear mascara when I wear eyeshadow, which is not very often these days. It has taken me a while to get around to trying out this mascara. The packaging is made of purple and gold plastic and it has a sort of tapered oval shape. The brush is small and made of rubber. It has longer bristles towards the bottom and shorter bristles at the top. The formula is creamy and kind of thick, but it does feel lightweight on your lashes. You get 9.5ml of product in the tube and the shade is Noir/Black. You can buy it for £10.99 from places such as Boots (UK), Superdrug (UK) and Ulta (USA). It is supposed to give your lashes definition and volume without making them clumpy or feeling stiff. The couture brush should coat every lash without clumps and it has small soft bristles, which should reach each lash and evenly spread the mascara. There’s nothing special about the packaging it is just a nice masc...

Haul: Small Unmentioned Purchases

For today’s post I am going to share with you a few products that I have recently purchased and have not mentioned. I actually purchased one of the products last year but I thought I would include it anyway because I have not mentioned it before. The product I bought last year was from Asda and it is the Maybelline Color Tattoo 24 HR Cream/Gel Eyeshadow in Pink Gold . I bought it for £4.99 and I got it because I thought it was limited edition but as it turned out it is actually permanent. It is a gorgeous colour! Now for the products I have bought recently this year. The Urban Decay Oz: The Great and Powerful Theodora Palette  for £35 from BeautyBay.com. I have used this palette a few times and I really like it. From Superdrug I picked up a Maybelline theROCKET Volum’Express Mascara  in the shade Black because I was interested in trying it and I got it for £5.99 because it had a £2 off offer. From Home Bargains I picked up another can of the TRESemmé Extra Hold...
