Katy Perry 'Purr' Perfume Review

-
Like many women I have had many different types of perfumes and for something new for my blog to start the new year, I thought I'd review the ones I have.

I've had the classic Britney Spears 'Curious', 'Fantasy' (which are my all time favourites and started me in perfumes) and 'Circus Fantasy', Vera Wang 'Princess', Taylor Swift 'Wonderstruck', Juicy Couture 'Juicy Couture' and 'Peace, Love, Juicy Couture', DKNY 'Be Delicious', 'Be Delicious Fresh Blossom',  'Be Delicious Fresh Blossom Juiced' and 'Be Delicious Juiced', Christina Aguilera 'Signature', 'Inspire', 'Royal Desire' and finally YSL 'Parisienne'.


 Packaging:
Purple tinted glas shaped into a sitting cat with silver accents at the base, collar round neck and diamond eyes The cap is sturdy and clicks shut.

Notes:
Top- gardenia, green bamboo, apple & peach
Middle- rose, freesia, jasmine
Base- musk, sandalwood, amber, coconut, vanilla

Smell:
This is a sweet and sensual perfume. It has hints of fruit and vanilla to it initially that turns into the musk that lingers. I find this to last all day on my skin, getting whiffs of it throughout the day. I think it can be either a day or night perfume as it isn't too strong. I think it works better in the warmer seasons due to the fruitiness and suit the more younger women.

When I smell this, it uplifts my mood, transporting it to a fun, mysterious and sexy place.I am surprised I like this perfume as the top and middle notes are more sweet and fruity then the other perfumes I tend to enjoy. It's the sandalwood and musk in the base notes that lingers on my skin that I enjoy.

Innoxa Organic Brightening Eye Creme

Packaging: Opaque white plastic squeeze tube with a twist off cap. The nib is fine and 2mm wide. The packaging has elements of green and brown to tie in with the organic line. It's defiantly durable and travel friendly. The cap has caused me some fussing when it hasn't twisted on evenly the first go. I like being able to cut the tube open to get every ounce of product out. Smell/Taste: None. Colour: White, blends out clear. Formula/ Texture: This is a thin and smooth lotion. It's easily applied and absorbed into the eye area without any greasy film or tackiness. The formula contains aloe vera, avocado, macadamia and rosehip oil meaning it's going to soothe, nourish and soften the eye area.  It defiantly hasn't caused any skin irritations or redness.  No sulphates, parabens, mineral oils, silicones, petrochemicals, synthetic fragrances or TEA's. The rosehip, olive, coconut and macadamia oils help reduce the appearance of fine li...

Benefit Benetint

Packaging: Small clear tube with white screw lid with brush tip applicator. Smell: None. Colour: Ruby red colour. Light coverage/ sheer pigmentation with a natural finish. On the cheeks it is a lot more sheered out and is more pink looking. Texture/ Formula: This is a quite runny and thin. It absorbs and sinks into the skin quite quickly. So it must be applied onto one cheek at a time, blending it immediately. This is my first tint so I had a hard time adjusting to the application method as I ended up with blotches of tint that no powder could fix. A small amount goes a long way. I do use my fingers to apply this and the blending is easier then a brush. This does leave a slight stain on my fingertips. It does have an amazing longevity of 12hrs+, which is what a tint is known for. This can be increased more topped with a powd...

Benefit They're Real! Mascara

I got this sample size from The Champions of Bronze kit. Packaging: Shiny gunmetal wand handle with a gunmetal tube. The wand as long plastic bristles with a spiked ball at the end of it. This ball utilises the end of the mascara wand and reaches into the smaller lashes in the inner corner of the eye. Smell: Just the usual mascara smell. Colour: Black. Opaque pigmentation. Formula/ Texture: This is more of a wet mascara but with a really thin scraper that doesn't leave any clumps of mascara on the wand. It's a thinner wand which made applying it easy. I wasn't going through my lashes trying to separate my lashes and then add volume then back to separating a clump. Theres no flaking or transferring. It's is easily removed with makeup wipes. I have average length lashes that have a very slight natural curl to them, so I want a mascara that does it all- volume, length and curl. I always curl my lashes before mascara applicati...
