Jo Malone Wild Fig & Cassis Cologne...

I have recently become a big fan of Jo Malone fragrances & after receiving the Pomegranate Noir fragrance for my birthday I wanted to extend my collection.

After going to a Jo Malone store in London I fell in love with the Wild Fig & Cassis cologne. I am a fan of woody fragrances so I was instantly attracted to the smell of pine & cedarwood. I also like the smell to be fresh & feminine so the balance of the figs & cassis is a perfect combination. The initial smell is fruity & light but then coupled with the cassis & cedarwood gives the scent a really rich & warm note. I think it makes for a perfect evening scent & people will definitely be admiring it.

Jo Malone describes the scent as "Breakfast in Tuscany. Plump, sun-warmed figs blend with juicy cassis and the purity of pine and bracing cedarwood. The warmth of the Mediterranean. An earthy and embracing scent."

If your a fan of Jo Malone which fragrance do you think I should add next to my collection?

Birthday Treats/ July Favourites...

Hi guys, so it was my birthday on the 18th July and I got some really great presents, most of which were beauty products! So I thought I would combine them with some of my favourites from July!

Jo Malone - This is my first fragrance from Jo Malone and I absolutely love it. I got Pomegranate Noir and it smells so fruity but quite musky as well. I really like heavy scents and with a touch of pomegranate this is really nice for summer and winter.

Kerastase - I am starting to become a big fan of Kerastase. This serum is from the Resistance range and is built to protect and seal split ends. One pump a day through the ends makes hair feel softer and stronger. If you have long hair this is a must to protect the length.

Revlon (pink tube) - If you have heard of the Clinique Chubby Sticks but thought they were a bit pricey then these balms from Revlon are just as good but at half the price. They come in a vast range of colours and really soften the lip.

Rimmel - Wake Me Up concealer. I have heard that the foundation is supposed to be amazing but I thought I would give the concealer a go first. I really like the packaging and the wand is a really easy way to apply. It gives great coverage that doesn't leave a cakey feeling on the skin.

Embryolisse - Lait Creme Concentrate. This is my third tube of this moisturiser and I will be buying a lot more of it in the future. I have seen a massive improvement in my skin since using this. It sinks into the skin straight away and leaves a lovely glow.

Dior Amber Diamond - This powder highlight is probably one of the most expensive makeup products I have bought (well is it Dior) but it has been worth it. It has a gorgeous shimmer and really highlights the cheekbones beautifully.

Bourjois - Smokey Eyes - Three great eye shadows to create the perfect smokey eye. The colours are really pigmented and are easy to blend together.
