Givenchy Dahlia Noir Perfume Review – Beautiful Perfume
In this post I decided to talk about a beautiful fragrance that is one of my favourite lighter autumn scents – Dahlia Noir by Givenchy. I really love the packaging of this perfume, for both the box and the bottle. The packaging of both the box and the bottle of a fragrance is really important to me. As much as it shouldn’t really be within the decision making process when buying a new fragrance, it is something you will have spent quite a lot of money on, and will be sitting out on show for the next year or two so helps if you like the look of it too!…

Bumble and Bumble Thickening Hairspray
I am always on the lookout for new thickening/volumising hair sprays and other hair products, as my hair is long and quite fine, and so can sit quite flat if just left. I first heard about the Bumble and Bumble Thickening Spray via blogs and youtube, so thought I would look into it more as it sounded like something I may have been interested in, the only thing that put me off was the price really, as it’s around £21.50 for a 250ml bottle… but a few weeks ago in Elle magazine they were giving away a travel size bottle of it for free, so I thought I would give…

Hi Kammi’s readers it’s Jess from over at www.dungarees-and-donuts.co.uk, here to bring you a guest post I recently came across Kammi’s blog during a beauty bloggers chat and I loved it and when she asked if anyone was interested in doing a guest post I was delighted to do one, it’s a little late because I’ve been so busy the last week but here you are Kammi and readers! I decided I would review the Urban Decay Pallet which I recieved a few months ago as a present I have only used three of the shades- Gravity which is a deep purple…

No7 BB Lips
In this post I will be reviewing the BB Lips range by No7. The first thing I will say about these, is that they will be nothing like you would expect! At first look they look like a highly pigmented/really opaque lipgloss, with a lipgloss texture/feel to them… they are pretty much the opposite! When swatched on your hand they have a very pigmented look to them, on the lips they are very sheer with only the slightest hint of colour. They look like a lipgloss, and if you rub it on your hand they feel like it too, and yet on the lips they feel like a lip balm.…

Biotherm Hand Cream Review
This post is most of a guest post I put on Jess’s blog a few months ago as a guest post, but I have decided to modify it a little and add in new pics, so that all the readers of my blog can get the benefits and information out of this post also. This review is of the Biotherm hand cream. I will put up a picture of the standard one first, but also a picture below of the Charity Edition one I got as the packaging is really pretty. I love hand creams, I really feel it is important to keep your skin hydrated and moisturised as much…

Giorgio Armani Si edp Perfume Review
This post is a look at the new fragrance by Giorgio Armani called Si. This really is such a beautiful fragrance. It has been brought out as his new premium fragrance, and you can really tell. Straight from the Armani Beauty website it says “At once chic, voluptuous, intense, and soft, Sì lingers on the skin and enchants the senses. The perfume combines 3 notes: blackcurrant nectar, modern chypre, and blond wood musk with touches of freesia and May rose.” It doesn’t smell like blackcurrant to me, but there is a definite fruity sweetness to it initially, which settles right down once allowed to develop onto the skin. It…

Natural French Soap
Soap to me is one of those things that needs to be done well, or not at all. I really have a dislike for poor quality soaps that don’t smell nice and strip the skin of moisture leaving it feeling dry and uncomfortable. I much prefer soaps that smell amazing, clean the skin, but also make your skin feel hydrated, soft and smooth. I have found in general that the more natural the soap, the more likely they will have the soft luxurious feel as opposed to poorer quality soaps which are hard and harsh on your hands/skin. Quality is important to me with bar soaps. I am always on…

Maybelline Baby Lips
So over the last couple of weeks I have magically ended up accidentally buying 6 of the Maybelline Baby Lips…. whoops! I do have a good reason though! (Or what I perceive to be a good reason) – which is clearly the same thing! 🙂 So what happened was… these were launched, I got excited, found out they were only £2.99 each and on 3 for 2 so I bought three! Then I was playing with a tester of the Peach one (purple tube) and really fancied that one so was going to just buy the one, but they were still on 3 for 2. That totally makes it okay! 😀…

Benefit Stay Flawless 15-hour Primer Review
This post will be on the Stay Flawless 15-hour Primer from Benefit. I did a quick mention of this in a post a short while ago when I reviewed the Hello Flawless Oxygen Wow Foundation by Benefit saying that I was liking it so far but wanted to use it a few more times before I did a full review, so used it for another full week before writing this! I like to use a product a lot/for a long time before doing a full review as I feel that sometimes it can take a while of using the product, getting used to the product, and finding the best way it works…

Natural Collection Body Sprays
So today I present to you… the Natural Collection Body Sprays! Natural Collection is one of Boots own brands, which is very much a “cheap and cheerful” brand, and these sprays are no exception. I am a huge lover of fragrance, so can be a little picky when it comes to what scents I wear/have round me, but I must say these have impressed me for their £2 price tag! Left to right we have… Strawberry, Vanilla, Passionfruit, Mango & Papaya and Apple and Lime. They do have other scents in the collection but these 5 are my favourite ones. So for just £2 you get a full 150ml bottle…
