Library of Fragrance- Vanilla Cake Batter Review!

Hello My Lovelies


When ever you take the lid of a bottle of Library of Fragrance perfume you know it's going to be an adventure for the senses, each scent is unique and totally emotive that makes your imagination run wild. 

I've heard lots of amazing things about the Library of Fragrance over the past few months, so when I was offered the opportunity to review one of the 300 scents available which includes gingerbread, grass and snow I jumped at the chance!

I chose Vanilla Cake Batter and I found the scent to be super sweet with an smoky inflection, I definitely felt the smell was true to life with the hints of vanilla and sugar and that oh so yummy scent. On first spray it's strong to the senses, but not overpowering. The longevity how ever isn't very long, personally for me it was approx two hours which is my only disappointment. You can layer Library of Fragrance perfumes up to create different scents that compliment each other and this can lengthen the time it lasts on your skin, which is what I did with mine.

 

I adore the clear glass bottle and it looks very chic on my dressing table. Sold for £15 it might seem high, how ever if you can find the fragrances on offer in your local Boots store usually two for £25 then it works out to be a great purchase, and addictive too- since I was sent Vanilla Cake Batter to enjoy I've also bought Marshmallow and Sunshine and there's more on my wish list!!

Have you tried any of the Library of Fragrance perfumes, let me know in the comments.

Till next time,

What's in my work make up bag?

Hello My Lovelies

For Christmas I was gifted a lovely Cath Kidston make up bag that I have since decided to use for work as my old makeup bag was falling apart. Here's what I carry everyday to work!

Kleenex shine absorbing sheets- I won these in a giveaway and are fab for when I don't have time to stop to use my face powder, they are quick and easy to use and definatly make me look less shiny.

When I do have time to add some face powder I use the Collection Lasting Perfection and I'm not impressed, it's pretty awful which is surprising as the Collection concealer is fab! 

I have the worst dark circles under my eyes so I carry my trusty Clinque concealer, again I don't use this too often as I'm just too busy to touch up my makeup but I do love having it in my bag just in case.

Cath Kidston wild flowers hand cream is brilliant in the cold winter months I like to carry this as my hands do have a tendency to get a little dry.

Vaseline as you all know by now is my ultimate holy grail product and one that I can't live without! Aways with me, I reapply this many times throughout the day!!

What makeup items do you carry on your bags to work? Let me know on the comments!

Till next time,

                   Tori.

Product of the month...January!

Hello My Lovelies

Yay! It's the end of the long, cold, depressing month I like to call January! My product of the month is... Victoria's Secret 'Victoria' fresh body mist. I bought this in duty free when I went on holiday to Iceland just before Christmas. It's my first ever Victoria's Secret product and when I went in to the store and saw that they did a body mist and that it had my name on I was super happy!

The scent is really subtle, sugary and fruity so right up my street, a day fragrance that isn't too strong (I can't stand that as I get headaches!) but easily wearable during the day and that I have noticed lasts for a good 8/9 hours.

The bottle is very pretty with the standard Victoria's Secret pink and black text and a bow near the top of the bottle and a bright pink lid! This fragrance is't cheap, I picked it up in Duty Free for £11.00 so I don't know how much it would set you back at their Bond Street store but as a treat to yourself going on holiday.

Do you own any Victoria Secret's perfumes/body sprays? Let me know in the comments!

Till next time,

                   Tori.
