I know Victoria’s Secret…Angel Gold Eau De Parfum {Quick Fragrance Review}

Steal the spotlight

Clever slogan marketing at its best because all I did was stare at this glorious packaging and wings for what seemed like forever before opening it. All that glitters is not gold, but Victoria’s Secret Angel Gold Eau De Parfum comes close.

Instant Illumination with Vichy Idealia Anti-Fatigue Eye Care {Beauty Review}

Featuring a treasury of ingredients encompassing licorice root extract, caffeine and soothing Vichy mineralizing water, Vichy Idealia Anti-Fatigue Eye Care works two-fold, as an illuminator, as well as an anti-aging treatment. I sought out this eye cream specifically for these ingredients. If you read my post on choosing an eye cream, you would know why these are vital ingredients to look for in selecting an eye cream.

Unlike other eye creams I have tried and tested thus far, Vichy Idealia Anti-Fatigue Eye Care is unique in that it contains an ingredient exclusive to Vichy called DRM bright complex. But – what’s so special about this DRM bright complex?

Crabtree & Evelyn London La Source Revitalising Eau de Toilette {Fragrance Friday}

Ecstatic is probably an understated sentiment which was felt when I received Crabtree & Evelyn London’s La Source Revitalising Eau de Toilette!

I’ve been a Crabtree & Evelyn fan since my first trip to the UK back in 2003 when I was introduced to this luxurious brand.

Inspired by the sea with marine and citrus notes, this fragrance transports you to the pleasant, gentle and refreshing aromas of the ocean.

Walking on sunshine…?

My succinct article on sun protection and selecting the correct sunglasses sparked a number of requests for an article on UV (ultra violet) and why sunscreen is an absolute necessity. So by popular demand and research I hope that this article will enlighten and encourage you to be safe out in the sun.

Essie Apricot Oil {Quick Beauty Review}

A fruity scent to match the mesmerising liquid, Essie Apricot Oil has become part of my weekly nail care regimen for quite a few months now.

I’m not really a cuticle moisturiser fanatic, mostly because I never really felt the need to moisturise my cuticles, but when I saw this attractive neon liquid in it’s recognisable Essie nailpolish bottle across the beauty department store, it was love at first sight.

Essie Apricot Oil contains a nourishing medley of Cotton Seed oil, Sweet Almond oil, Soybean Oil and Sunflower Seed oil.
