Giorgio Armani Si EDP Review

Giorgio Armani Si EDP* (£67.00) has been on my radar since I received a tiny sample of it with one of my beauty purchases, and I fell in love with it right away. After spraying myself head to toe with the vial, I knew I needed a full size bottle of Si in my life :) 

Jimmy Choo I Want Choo EDP review

This post includes gifted products and affiliate links

It's so nice to be back to blogging properly, and what better way to get my inner beauty blogger going than a fragrance review. YAY! I recently popped into Frasers Glasgow to try the new I Want Choo EDP by Jimmy Choo*, as they had the JC Golden Chair set up at the iconic spot on the staircase and it was love at first sight. The bottle, the luxurious feel, the scent itself. Stunning! I was kindly gifted some Jimmy Choo goodies and let me tell you... what a lovely surprise! If you're looking for a new fragrance to try, you have to give I Want Choo a go. I got so many compliments on it already. Keep reading to find out more.

A few of my current favourites (ad/gifted)

This post features gifted items (ad/gifted)

I've been very quiet lately, but as you might know, we have moved house recently and it's been very hectic. We're mostly settled now, but there's still plenty of bits and bobs we have to finish. I'm finding my rhythm and hopefully I can get back to my normal routine with the help of some Spring sunshine. I have neglected many areas of my life during the house move, but I'm trying to practice more self care and enjoy the little things. On that note... I would love to share a few things, which bring me joy at the moment.

New spring accessories, beauty & fragrance

Spring is playing tricks on us and the rain is back somehow, but I am fully in Spring/Summer mode and I am enjoying more colour. I switched up my makeup too and I am using more corals and pinks and my skin is definitely ready to catch some rays and enjoy more sunshine!

L'Occitane Rose EDT and Fragrance Waters

This post contains gifted products and affiliate links

I don't own a huge selection of L'Occitane fragrances or products, but everything I have tried from the brand in the past has been incredible and I repurchased a few favourites over the years, like the Almond Shower Oil and Shea Butter Hand Cream. I also feel very sentimental about their Pivoine Delicate EDT, so it's safe to say that I was really excited to try the new Rose EDP* and Burst Of Vitality Fragrance Water* which launched in February nationwide. I think they're a perfect option for Spring/Summer and with a choice of three fragranced waters to compliment the Rose scent, there is something for everyone.

Valentine's Day Gift Guide

With not much time left for Valentine's Day, I thought I would put together a last minute gift guide for her. Whether you're single or in a relationship, it's always nice to treat yourself or be spoilt by your partner, right?

Fragrance Gift Guide 2018 (for him & her)

If you're not done with your Christmas shopping yet and you have no idea what to get for the 'hard to buy for person' in the family, you can always get them a nice fragrance. Whether it's their all time favourite scent or something new with similar notes, you still have enough time to order online or get it last minute in store! Here are some of my picks for Christmas 2018 for men and women.

Michael Kors Sheer EDP

I noticed the Michael Kors Sheer EDP* in the Debenhams sale when I was browsing their website this weekend, so I thought I would let you know my thoughts on it before it sells out, just in case you want to grab a bargain. I have been using it a lot lately and I absolutely love it.

Narciso Rodriguez EDP For Her review

The Narciso Rodriguez EDP For Her*(30ml, £35.50) has been on my wishlist for a long time, after a received a little vial of it in a subscription box. It is finally mine and I totally get the hype around it, as it is absolutely beautiful and lasts on my skin for ages! From the bottle tom the scent itself - it's perfect!

Tory Burch Bel Azur review

With Summer just around the corner, I am loving fresher, more citrusy scents and I have been obsessed with Bel Azur by Tory Burch*(£73.00). Inspired by the French Riviera, Bel Azur captures three of Tory`s greatest inspirations - travel, the sea and the colour blue.

Not ready to let go of Summer scents

I feel like we didn't really have a Summer in the UK, so I am still trying to cling on to some Summer scents and a bit of sparkle, before I transition into autumnal options. I am absolutely obsessed with the Estee Lauder Bronze Goddess EDP* and I am also adding a nice glow to my skin with the Radiant Shimmering Body Oil*

The Fragrance Shop Discovery Club

I love trying new fragrances and I always have loads of little samples in my stash, as they are a perfect way to discover new scents and a great size to keep in your handbag, when you're out and about.

Guerlain Mon Guerlain Fragrance Review

You know when you smell a fragrance and you instantly fall in love? Well, this is it for me! The Guerlain Mon Guerlain EDP*(£68.00) was love at first... sniff and sight, because it's not only a beautiful fragrance, but a stunning bottle too! I am a huge Guerlain fan and I am obsessed with their Meteorites, so I was very pleased to add this new scent to my collection.

Current Makeup Favourites

Since Zac started school back in August last year, I started wearing makeup daily (Mon-Fri). Mostly, because I have scarring and blemishes, but I also just love makeup and it makes me feel better. Here are some of my current favourites that I've been reaching for most days.

His & Hers Viktor & Rolf Fragrances

When it comes to Valentine's Day, we all know that perfume is the top selling gift, right after red roses! If you don't know what to go for this year, you might want to check out the Viktor & Rolf fragrances. With Flowerbomb being one of my go to scents, I would definitely recommend it, along with the beautiful option for him- Spicebomb EDP Extreme!

His & Hers Fragrance Gift Sets at Fragrance Direct

Fragrance sets are the ultimate Christmas gift and there is only one place I buy mine from - Fragrance Direct. They always have such great deals. I picked four gorgeous sets to show you, two for her and two for him. All of these smell insanely good and come in the most beautiful packaging.

Christmas Gift Guide: Fragrance For Her

Christmas is all about gift sets and fragrances usually come in pretty special packaging during the festive season, but sometimes a standard bottle of your favourite scents adds that special something to your stocking filler. Here are some of my picks for every budget.

Liz Earle Botanical Essence No.9 review

I adore Liz Earle fragrances and the new Botanical Essence No.9* is no exception. Plus the bottle is definitely my favourite one so far, as the vibrant purple colour is just stunning! 

Eden Perfumes, vegan and cruelty free (+finding discontinued Gucci Envy)

I have been meaning to write about this amazing perfume, by an even more amazing company since the day I bought it, but I never got round to it till now. I had to feature it on the blog though, as it deserves to be shouted about from the rooftops! OK, so... let's show EDEN Perfumes some love!

Escentric 02 by Escentric Molecules

My perfume collection is like a small fragrance shop, but I always have space for new interesting additions. The Escentric 02*(100ml, £69.50) by Escentric Molecules is a scent that simply blew my mind and I can't get enough of it.
