Fragrance Favourites for S/S

Besides make-up, fragrance is my all time favourite thing to purchase wether its because they're often cased in killer packaging or because it adds a feminine touch to any look. Nothing seems to be more uplifting than spritzing on a tantalising perfume before walking out the door. Switching up your fragrance choices is the perfect segue for the transition from the winter to spring. So this is why I decided to share three of my all time favourite fragrances for the warmer months, so you can feel inspired to shake up your fragrance stash ready for spring/summer. 

First up is the MAC Turqautic fragrance (£38.50 for 50ml) that featured in my March favourites. I know what you're thinking - MAC do perfume?! Not only do they do perfume but those clever clogs at MAC headquarters have created the most amazing summer scent, cased in a gorgeous oblong-shaped cube that connotes cool underwater vibes. I spritzed this on my wrist when making a purchase at the counter and ten minutes later I was back in store, picking it up to purchase. The aquatic packaging mimics the the fragrance ingredients as it contains anemone, lotus and Corsican blue cedar to name a few. The fragrance lasts well throughout the day so rarely requires a top up and has already drawn in many compliments from others. If you are looking for a new fresh scent for this summer, I seriously recommend checking this out! 

Next up is the plenty raved about fragrance, Molecule 01 from Escentric Molecules. The innovative idea behind this product is what initially sold it to me in the first place. The fragrance is unisex so pretty much everybody in your household can use it, making the steep price tag of £65.50 for 100ml, slightly less horrifying. The main ingredient in this fragrance is the chemical iso E super, the base note that is often used to create allure in a scent. Therefore, this perfume has a unique scent for everybody meaning no two people will smell the same but they will still most definitely smell good. The undertones of this perfume are subtle and sultry but work all year round. If you purchase this bottle, you can be ensured you can wear it all day, everyday, through every single season. Therefore, it's more an investment piece, right? The only downside to this fragrance is that it is fairly difficult to smell on yourself thus giving the false conception that it's worn off yet the compliments will still be flooding in from everyone else around you. Trust me. 

Finally, is of course the number one summer fragrance in my eyes. The Estée Lauder Bronze Goddess. This only comes out once a year during summer, is incredibly limited edition and is basically summer in a bottle. A spritz of this fragrance is enough to make you crave a tropical vacation in paradise. Featuring ingredients such as coconut milk, lemon mandarin and magnolia petals, this scent is addictive. The scent is light but alluring and is enough to get anyway excited for the heat of summer. I have already written a raving review about this fragrance last summer on my blog so do go and check that out if you want to know more about what this fragrance contains. 

I would love to know your thoughts in the comments.

February Beauty Favourites

I know this is slightly late considering we are a week into March but I really wanted to do a post focusing on my favourites from the past month as the products it features are ones that have only just been introduced to me and already I love them. So first all of all, The Balm Cosmetics Mary-Lou Manizer which, unless you have been living under a rock, you will have probably heard of as it is raved about all over the blogging world. This is a perfect champagne gold hue that diffuses light thus adding a soft highlight to the skin. If you're someone who prefers to avoid shimmer, then steer clear of this as it's definitely one of my more 'sparkly' highlighting products but applied with a light hand, the shimmer adds to the beautiful glow on the skin. Another great attribute of this product is the multi-use feature it contains. Applied with a damp shadow brush, this creates a gorgeous, pigmented cream-gold eyeshadow that acts as a perfect base colour. I seriously recommend giving that  a go! Next up is the Charlotte Tilbury Dolce Vita quad which I won't go on too much about as I have already written a full review on this palette here. If you're after a product from Charlotte Tilbury but are unsure on which one to get, I seriously recommend picking up this one. You will not regret it. Next is the Shu Umera Eyelash Curlers. I have never been one to really use eyelash curlers as my eyelashes have a natural curl that can be easily accentuated with a decent mascara. Well so I thought, until I purchased these eyelash curlers on a whim and after one use - I was hooked. This adds an immense curl which I didn't even know existed, you need to try them! Finally, I have a fragrance favourite which again I am sure most of you have heard of. The Eccentric Molecules 01 fragrance is created from a traditional base note that adds allure to any scent. This fragrance is unique as it smells different on everyone who wears it and is seriously addictive. I have worn this pretty much everyday through-out February as I seriously cannot get enough.
