Red Red Red!

Hey everyone! Sorry again for the delay in posting this, I've been very unwell recently! But, I'm on the mend now :)

Some of you may or may not know, I'm a HUGE Taylor Swift fan, you might even call me a Swiftie... While out buying presents again today, I spotted a bottle, shimmering red, from across the room, charms dangling from the cap. Next to it, a line of red boxes covered in gold swirly patterns... I honestly hadn't seen it anywhere in England until today. Enchanted Wonderstruck. I didn't even hesitate, I had to have it! So, its now sitting on my desk next to me which can only mean one thing... A fragrance review!

Let's kick off with the packaging, which I am in love with! I don't know if there's a word for it, so I'm going to say reflective and hope its the correct one... But the bottle changes colour in the light, it looks a darkish shimmery purple in the dark, but when the light hits it, it reflects red, it looks so pretty. The cap is a gorgeous gold colour with baroque-like patterns on it, at the base of the lid there are four gorgeous charms; a clear gem and a gold, rustic bird (maybe a swallow? I don't know, I'm no bird expert) a feather and a flower with a cute little gem in the middle and a little pink one next to it. The actual bottle itself is a little round one, it really is very lovely.

Scent! Its a much softer, more sophisticated scent than that of Wonderstruck. It's sweet and quite fruity, an evening scent, if you will. It's certainly a more mature scent but still very wearable for teens and young adults. I think I prefer this to Wonderstruck, its a little more my style. It's not strong smelling at all, its a subtle fragrance which will not overpower easily, lovely for the summer and spring when you don't really want to be wearing any heavy scents!

Sorry I can't add any pictures, I usually take them on my phone which has just been sent off to be repaired (no!) But the packaging is so beautiful you won't miss it anyway! I picked my bottle up in Superdrug today,  its a 50ml bottle which I got for £20 (on sale, woohoo!) but you can pick it up pretty much anywhere that sells perfume, drugstores, perfume shops... Anywhere! I think it's usually around the £30 mark for the 50ml bottle, but it is definitely worth it, I think I may even need to pick up a travel size!

I hope you enjoyed reading this review, if there are any scents out there you'd like to recommend, please, comment below!

Just a Little Mention!

Hey guys! Sorry there hasn't been a post in a little while, unfortunately I've been a bit under the weather! Buuuuut, I decided to pop into Lush the other day to get a present for a friend and well, I'm a sucker for Lush! I absolutely adore everything in the shop, so I couldn't resist getting myself a little something too!

This isn't really a review just something I wanted to point out to everyone, as I love a good cause! Soooo, Lush are currently selling tiny, tiny little pots of hand/body lotion, they're only 10g but they cost £1 and the money goes to charity (apart from what is needed for VAT) however it does state this on the lid of the pot.

Many of you will know that Lush is famous for using natural ingredients and I think its the lack of chemical nasties twinned with the quality of the products that make this such a desirable brand. I for one, can't have enough Lush in my life!

The lotion is rich and hydrating, it feels like such a luxurious product and leaves a beautiful cocoa scent on your skin. I wouldn't classify this as a product only to be used on certain skin types either, it absorbs quickly and leaves your skin feeling fresh and smooth although a little heavy.

Regardless of the mini review I've given, I still encourage you all to pick yourselves up a little pot, it's for a good cause!
