Daisy Dream

So Marc Jacobs, have done it again... brought out a new fragrance that I have fallen in love with.
Daisy Dream is a gorgeous new Eau de toilette perfume, perfect for lighter weather. 
This is a light, sweet, fruity fragrance, that although is all these things, its very strong smelling, and last's on the skin. Usually with light fragrances they don't last long and often fade quickly. But with Daisy Dream, this is definitely not the case. 
To me this smells of strawberries, and is just beautiful, I would use this as an everyday fragrance, or if I was going out for a meal or on a date (its perfect for dates).
The bottle and packaging, is just so classic, and elegant. With its pale blue box, and liquid, adorned with cute white and gold daisy's, this is the perfect addition to any dressing table. 
Not only has Marc Jacobs brought the fragrance out, he has also given us some extra's too, in the form of a shower gel and a body cream, perfect for gifts or a little treat for yourself.
And the best part is the pricing, its so affordable.

MAC Limited Edition Buttercream Pearlmatte Face Powder


Recently, I've been on the hunt for a good face powder, and after stumbling on this limited edition gem at an airport I couldn't resist buying it.
This is the MAC pink buttercream pearlmatte face powder and it is beautiful. If you're looking for a powder that is light in coverage but does the trick of getting rid of any shine then this is for you. It's beautiful girlie flower design and it's classic MAC packaging make this the prettiest edition to your make-up collection!
I gently dust this powder all over my face, and any dewy patches, and put a little extra on the tops of my cheek bones for a little subtle highlight. It's just perfect.

What powders would you guys recommend?

Mini review; Hollister body spray

I brought my first ever Hollister spray about 4 months ago, and It sat in the bag for ages, before I finally got it out and decided I needed to start using it, and I'm glad I did.
I brought the Hollister Tidelands Beach body mist, and it is amazing, they usually have an offer where you can buy 3 bottles for £21, which me and my sister did, so this only cost me £7. I use it quite a lot now, and it looks like I have hardly touched it. It has such a sweet floral smell, with a hint of strawberry, and lasts on you for ages, I sometimes spray it on my clothes and they smell sweet for ages too. I really would recommend checking this and the others in the range out, it is definitely worth the price and always makes me think of summer! What can be better than that?

Chanel Soliel Tan De Chanel Review

One of my favourite Christmas presents I received this year was the Chanel Soliel Tan De Chanel universal bronzer, and I have fallen in love! I was first introduced to the product through watching various Velvetgh0st YouTube videos, demonstrating how the product works, so I thought I would pop it on my Christmas list.
I haven't had much experience with bronzer's and have only really recently been introduced to the idea of contouring your cheeks, although a little pricey this is a brilliant place to start. Normally this retails for £31, but as I work for a department store I got it for considerably less; definitely a perk of the job. 
This is a lightly whipped mouse like cream, which is brilliant for lightly sweeping across the cheeks to contour, or building up to add a bronzed glow to the apples of your cheeks. The best applicant for this would be either a real techniques contour brush or a Mac blush brush. You literally dip the brush into the product, and it doesn't need much, and work into the desired area. The packaging is very high end and elegant, another plus to the amazing product! I would 100% recommend this to everyone, as a very good beauty investment. 

Let me know if you have tried this product, and what your favourite bronzer is!

Mac Mineralize Skinfinish Review

I purchased this product a while ago (and mentioned it briefly in a previous post), but have only just started to use it... and boy do I LOVE it!!! This is one of the most amazing powder's I have ever used. This is a light textured powder, in various shades, the one I use is Light+, and retails I believe for around £20 (don't quote me on that ha ha), it sounds a lot of money, but I have used it a lot already and it doesn't look touched. I can tell this will last me quite a while. I use this for a gentle, light coverage over my foundation, to get rid of any dewiness or to powder any oily patches I may have on my skin at the time, I have particularly found this good on spots and blemishes, as it covers and leaves a flawless finish, I apply this with a real techniques powder brush, for a swift and quick cover. This is quickly becoming one of my day to day beauty must haves and I would highly recommend this to everyone.
