Miss Dior Eau de Toilette!

Miss Dior, has become such a popular perfume, and like many, I fell for the gorgeous fresh fragrance. I am terrible at explaining perfume scents, so this is what it apparently smells like; François Demachy likes a stroll through a blossoming garden. The same Couture style and the same theme are prolonged from the original Miss Dior to this new opus: a chypre accord, which is enlivened with a springtime spirit. A fragrance with floral accents that dazzles with joie de vivre. I bought the Eau de Toilette and really regret it. I love the scent, the notes are gorgeous, however I find that once I have sprayed the perfume, the smell fades to the point that I can't smell it, after about fifteen minutes. In my opinion the eau de toilette scent is not strong enough, in any way, and for that reason I purchased the le parfum, because I do love the scent! I would really advice anyone who is wanting to buy this perfume, to spend the extra £15 ( around about) and get the le parfum, because the scent lasts so much longer, and you don't have to constantly respray which wastes product. The eau de toilette is about £50 and the le parfum is about £63 (according to the perfumeshop). This is a truly amazing product, so spend the extra, it's really worth it!

Camouflage Trend !

The camouflauge army trend is definetly like marmite, you either love it, or hate it. I for one absolutley love it! I haven't found an army jacket that I love yet, but I am on the look out for one! The trend is slightly masculine, however you can add your own twist to it and make it your style and more feminine! I did pick up a shirt the other day, based around this trend, and I have already worn it about three times, I am just so in love with it!. The shirt is from Newlook, and was £24.99. I thought it was quite expensive, but only because I think Newlook supplies quite low priced pieces, with amazing quality! If you are intersted in this item, what I will say is it is quite oversized, so you may want to consider going a size down. I love wearing this shirt with leggings and knee boots,with my studded bag. It gives a really edgy, and on trend look, and being a real girly girl, I like to change it up, and experiment with current fashion!

Zara Parka!

I love Parka's! However I have always found that they haven't suited me as much as I would like them to. This parka though is a complete exception. I absolutely love it! The coat has a thick sheep skin layer inside and on the inner hood., There are four pockets, all together and the simplicty of it allows the coat to be worn casually or a bit more dressy (I dont mean for a night out occassion, but an interview or meeting). The coat is medium lengthed, and can be pulled in at the waist, so you can make it suit your figure! It also has a leather detailing down the zip and around the collar, making it alot different from other parka's I have seen. The price of this coat is £89.00. To some people this is pretty steep, however the thickness of this coat, and by the fact I got it at the beginning of October, and being England it is always cold, I feel like I will get my moneys worth for this item and I absolutely love it! Parka's are such a statement piece for this Winter, and this will probably become a fashion favourite. If you are looking for a cheaper priced parka, H&M sell one, which comes in around four different colours (khaki green being one of them), under £40.00 and Primark do one for under £30!

YSL Rouge Volupte Lipsticks!

I had such high hopes for these lipsticks! I am a huge fan of YSL, and I often purchase products from their makeup line, however this product wasn't really for me! I am in no way, saying that this product is poor quality (because it isn't), it's just the texture that doesn't make me fall in love with these lipsticks.

The Rouge Volupte lipsticks, have been around for quite a while now, and for many people, are a staple lip product. The way this lipstick applies is to soft for me. By this I mean it feels more like a moisturiser on my lips and the colour on the lips lasts about half an hour (on me)! It is like a MAC cremesheen formula, with that extra moisture, and it doesnt seem to dry at all, meaning that it comes off pretty quickly as the lips haven't absorbed the product. These lipsticks are £23.50, and although I feel that MAC lipsticks give a nicer effect, if you like constant moisture and a hydration feel on your lips then this may just be the product for you!

There is a good range of colours from this particular line, and I fell in love with most of them, when I first spotted them at the counter! The packaging is also gorgeous. YSL definetly wins the award for me when it comes to packaging products making everything from their makeup line feel like a luxury treat!

Mac Viva Glam Collection!

The Viva Glam collection from Mac, has been in my opinion a huge success! Although it's a small collection, with only three products, the quality is of course exceptional and the gorgeous pink lipstick and lipgloss, is that true Barbie pink colour. Let's admit, the lipstick isn't really a day to day product, however on a night out or when you want to add a little bit extra to your look, this fits the bill!

The first item is from Ricky Martin, this is his only product in the collection, and it is a lip conditioner. In my opinion it is really effective and every night I apply this product onto my lips before using Lush's lip scrub, giving you the perfect lip treatment! My only slight dislike to this product, is that, to me it has an ever so slight chocolate scent. I personally prefer fruity scents when it comes to makeup especially lip products. It doesn't taste of chocolate, however the intial smell I am not a fan of. However this is a completly personal opinion, you may love this kind of scent so don't let this put you off the product, because it is really good! The price of this product is £11!

Next is the Nicki Minaj lipstick. It is a vibrant barbie pink shade, and it has a satin formula. I love this product so much. I suit pinks more than coral shades and this was one of those products I just felt like I needed to have, even though 99% of my lipsticks are pink! I don't have enough good words to say about this product, and would definetly recommend purchasing it before the collection ends! The price of this product is £14.

The last product in the collection, is the Nicki Minaj lipglass. This is my favourite product from the collection! It is wearable on a day to day basis, and the shade of pink, is exceptional, and it comes out true to form on your lips! I love it so much! My favourite Mac lipglass used to be pink lemonade, but this lipglass is now my No.1 favourite. If you love pink lip products, and you have been looking for that perfect slightly bright pink but super wearable, then this is the product for you, I really would recommend you purchasing this product more than anything else in the collection, it is truly amazing! The price of this product is £13.50.

Mac is one of these brands that so many people love of all ages! This collection is no acception. It has been one of my number one favourite collections from Mac despite the small selection of products. It really is quality not quantity. The products mentioned are all still available, but won't be for much longer, I can promise you, that this won't be a regret purchasing the products. Lets just hope the upcoming Marilyn Monroe collection is as good as this one!

September Glossybox!

To say this months Glossybox wasn't the best, is a complete lie. In my opinion, it was below par! After last months blip, with the cheap quality eyeshadows, and nail care product, I really thought that Glossybox would bring out the "big guns" and amaze use with,  what their boxes used to be like. But they didnt. It isnt so much the products I dislike, it's the size of them. Small samples, the size you can get for free ( this was the case for two of the five products), and the rest of them, although you get slightly more product, there is no full sized item at all. There is always normally at least one full size product.

So todays post isn't so much about the products and my opinions, but just my first impressions of the box. With samples as small as the ones I received, I probably won't remember to use them, they will be left in a drawer until I have a clearout. And the Balance Me product has been something that was given away as a freebie in a Glamour magazine about two months ago! It's such a shame, as the box has been so beautifully designed, however the items inside let it down, and therefore for me this has been the worst box, I have ever recieved!

Sorry this has been such a negative post, however I am subscribing to Joliebox so next month hopefully I will have a more positive review. Also the products you recieve in Glossybox varies! Comment below if you were pleased or not, with this months box!
