Spring Scent

Clarins - Eau Dynamisante



This perfume is such an uplifting, fresh scent for spring

This is basically a grown up body spray, it can be applied generously and the plant extracts act to tone and moisture the skin!

Citrus, ginseng and patchouli notes make it a happy and heady perfume

I definitely recommend this if you are wanting a scent for SS11 which isn't a generic, sugary summer perfume

Have you tried any Clarins products before that you would recommend?
What is your favourite scent for SS11?

Fruit Works

I was recently scent two products from the massive Fruit Works range at Grace Cole

Watermelon & Pink Grapefruit Body Scrub and Body Butter





Firstly, the scent of these products is amazing!
I normally find fruit scented products have an off-putting chemical/sickly scent, but these have a realistic, sweet and juicy smell which lasts on my skin

Both products come in a fun, hot pink packaging which looks fabulous in my shower

The Scrub - 238ml
- This is a great every day product to keep skin soft and radiant, however I would use something more abrasive before fake tanning etc

Darling Tip - Mix a little sugar with a body scrub in your hand to make a scrub more abrasive and effective

The Body Butter - 250ml This is so luscious and creamy, I have been using this in the mornings and I find the scent and moisture lasts all day on my skin
It has the sweet, watermelon and grapefruit scent which mixes well with any perfume I wear or is strong enough to give a subtle fragrance





I definitely recommend giving these a try if your looking for some new, fruity body products for spring & summer.

Check out their website where you can buy online & see more of the fruity products - http://www.gracecole.co.uk/store/index.php/fruit-works.html

£7 Chanel Black Pearl Dupe



One current hype in the beauty community I have seen recently is
Chanel Black Pearl nail polish
A gorgeous colour but with a hefty £16.85 price tag





I have found a very similar version for £7 - No7 Stay Perfect Nail Colour - Night Silver
(£5 off Number 7 vouchers are currently available in boots)

The colour is a gunmetal silver which appears green, blue and almost black in different lights.




I love this colour: a fresher, lighter and prettier version of blacks and greys for spring!



Have you tried Black Pearl or Night Silver?
