Top 5: Fragrances




This deep purple, mysterious fragrance has fast become one of my favourites. I've always really liked GHOST's feminine and deep scents. I wrote a full review for the magazine here, if you'd like a peek.

DOLCE & GABBANA~ The one
I had been lusting after this for a long while and it had always been just a little out of my price range. So I got the gift set from the Boots sale, for quarter of the price, much to my delight. The scent last for hours and is strong but not potent. When you're next in a perfume selling type place then I would definitely recommend having a sniff, if you haven't already!

The Body Shop~Vanilla body mist
Having bought this for years and years it's about time I gave it the credit it deserves. It is cheap as chips for a start, great to cool off with in the heat and it also smells so summery and authentic. I normally use it as a  base scent for daytime and then spritz a stronger smell on top for the evening, because it usually blends really well with other scents. 

Daisy Pour Femme
I got this on eBay, only to discover it was a fake. But oh well, it still smells really similar to the Marc Jacobs one.This scent is very fruity and girly and I mainly use it in Spring/Summer time. If this doesn't make you want to run through a some sort of field then I don't know what will. 


Although Paris Hilton is renowned for many a negative thing, I actually really like her original perfume. It cost around £10 and smells really unusual and unique. I would really recommend giving it a go, I'm currently on my third bottle!

If you'd like to tell me your favourite scents then I would love to hear them!

Beauty and Makeup bargain buys under £10

Something a bit different today, I have been wanting to get into reviewing some products and getting a better feel of what is available in high street shops at a decent price. I am one of those girls that will keep buying the same product if I love it and has to try hard to find certain products that compliment my dry and very pale skin. So I made a video on some of the best inexpensive products that I use that are actually really great, sort  of a review but it is more to give you guys tips on how to shop wisely in an ever growing beauty market.


Items reviewed:
Smokey eyes kit~Benefit
Queen of hearts red lipstick~Collection 2000
Black liquid eyeliner~Collection 2000
Vanilla body mist~The Body Shop
My big break purple lipstick~OPI
24 hour false lash effect mascara~Maxfactor
Oatmeal body lotion~Aveeno (not featured in picture)

I can safely say I bought all of these products for under £10 and they are long lasting and well worth a bargain purchase. For the full reviews and just general ramblings you can watch the video below...




Happy shopping
