Serial Sampler #27

I received this sample for FREE when I purchased two OFRA highlighters from BeautyBay.com. I was lead to believe that it would be a full sized lipstick, but it was a mini sample size that arrived. It does look quite cute, so I am still happy with it.

It is the Long Lasting Liquid Lipstick in Bel Air by OFRA and it is mini sample of the full sized lipstick.
Bel Air - warm nude with a hint of peach (matte)

This lipstick is supposed to have long lasting colour with minimal transfer. It should also be comfortable to wear. It is infused with Vitamin A and antioxidants.

It is a beautiful colour and definitely the sort of shade I would wear. It is long lasting and comfortable to wear, but I would suggest that you try to avoid eating and drinking large quantities as it will wear away (especially if oil based). I am looking at purchasing a full sized tube of it, but I need to swatch it against some lipsticks I already own to make sure I don’t have a dupe. I will make do with the very cute mini for now!
You can buy the full sized tube (8g) for £15.50 ($20.00) from OFRACosmetics.com and BeautyBay.com.

My Eye Primers: The Verdict!

It has taken me a long time to put this altogether, but I have finally done it! I decided I wanted to share my thoughts on eye primers I had tried and it turned out that I had ten, so I thought I would test them and find out which one worked best for me. I have split them into two categories (High End/Low End) and I aim to rank them from #1 to #10 on which is the longest wearing. Let’s look at the primers I will be testing. HIGH END URBAN DECAY PRIMER POTION PRICE: £17.50 SIZE: 10ml SHADES: Original, Anti-ageing, Freebase, Eden, Fix, Minor Sin, Sin and Caffeine APPLICATION: Squeeze tube without a nozzle, but also has a sponge stick applicator PROMISES: Non-creasing, gives you vibrant eyeshadows WHERE TO BUY: UrbanDecay.co.uk (UK) & Sephora (USA) I like to think that this primer is my favourite as I love the packaging (purple is my favourite colour). It is potion bottle inspired and it is the first primer I remember ever seeing and wanting. The packa...

Perfume Power! - Next 'Paradise'

I first smelt this perfume after receiving it in a mini gift set about ten years ago and I have loved it ever since. This 100ml size is my first bottle of it though, other than the tester/sample size. The bottle is quite tall and it is a sort of clutch bag shape if you turn it on its side. The bottle is a simple design and you can easily see how much perfume you have. On mine the spray pump sometimes gets stuck in the band around the neck of the bottle, but the problem is easily solved. I can’t find a specific note list anywhere for this perfume, but on Next’s site it is described as, "a light fruity fragrance with white florals and green notes". To me it smells really fruity and fresh. It is also multifunctional because it is quite strong and sexy, so perfect for a night out, but it is also not too overpowering and smells fresh and fruity enough for day time wear. It is actually an eau de toilette, which means that it is less concentrated, but I find that it is st...
