A Marks & Spencer Beauty: Mini Perfume Haul

I am all into miniatures these days and when I saw these beauties, I had to dig in. I have never been a perfume purchase person, as mostly they were gifted to me. I love a real good mist and was quite committed to Bath & Body Works and The Body Shop ones for a long time now so I decided lets switch that up and that is when I found these lil' devils and whats better than carrying these dinky yet amazing perfumes around for a spritz!

There was an ample collection in all different sizes and notes, I am sure there is something for everyone. I was looking for an everyday type of a scent, so I picked up a day scent, an evening scent and a floral scent. Since they are so dinky and sturdy you can easily carry them in your smallest purses throughout the day.

1) Marks & Spencer Beauty: Lavender Eau De Toilette - This scent is from their floral collection, I never owned an ONLY lavender scent before, I sniffed it I loved it, it is a typical lavender subtle scent, yet it makes its mark. This is a 30 ml glass bottle and looks almost like a giant flower bud. By the looks of it, it is simple yet classy and would also make a good gift. It is a scent you can wear anytime of the day.

2) Marks & Spencer Beauty: Island Escape - This scent is more neutral and a day time scent clearly. I have owned scents with similar notes in the past, the top notes in this scent being bergamot and pear combined by salt sea air and rose petals. This is more of my kinda scent, and you can go slightly go overboard with it, without smelling plastic. It is a 25 ml bottle with amazing looks, as the bottle is shaded with light blue and yellow just like the cover. Again, an absolutely recommended gift for the ladies and it is a scent you can use through the year.

3) Marks & Spencer Beauty: True Red - My personal fave! I went totally bonkers on this one and bought two :P I am not a huge fan of scents that are strong, this scent is comparatively more overpowering (in a good way!) than the other two. The top notes in this one is pineapple and orange with hint of sage, jasmine and patchouli - add a bit of patchouli anywhere - body butters, body washes, perfumes and I AM SOLD! It is clearly an evening scent and more long lasting that the other two. It comes in this simple, clear glass 25 ml bottle. The packaging of the cover is more attractive than the bottle itself, but who cares - the scent is to die for! Totally Recommended!

Bioderma Node DS+ Shampooing Review

Bioderma! A brand every skin/hair care fancying woman greedily hoards. Well in my case I needed to pick this "heaven sent" product to heed to my never-ending, every stalking dandruff problem. I have been facing persistent dandruff right since I was a kid, but with time and changing products the flaky snow on my head just got worse. I had been using The Body Shop - Ginger Anti Dandruff shampoo, as mentioned in my earlier post here , I never swore by it that it did any good or bad to my dandruff situation, but I still continue using it every once a while and avoid using it on my scalp off-late. I was recommended this shampoo by my dermatologist as  I recently had some problem with an allergy on my lip (about that I will cover in another post - coming soon!) which was triggered by dandruff *sighs*. Ok back to Bioderma Node DS+ shampoo Claims of this product: - Reduces rapid increase of Malassezia yeast which triggers dandruff - Prevents recurre...

M.A.C Lipstick Review - M.A.C Matte Lipstick - Shade Diva

My M.A.C Lipstick in Diva When it comes to M.A.C lipsticks I can go on and on, a true lipstick lover will know that M.A.C lipstick is the queen of lipsticks because of its wide range of formulas and shades. Whenever I buy an high-end lipstick, for me the shade matters the most, I do not like buying bold shade for fear I won't use it much and it won't justify the price. I wanted a red tone matte lipstick from M.A.C but at the same time I did not want a bold red or orange red tone lipstick as it would not flatter my skin tone. I almost left the counter thinking red is out of question, matte red is totally out of question and then I happen to swatch M.A.C Diva - I always looked at M.A.C Diva as more of an autumn-wintery shade and that it would look more festive and wine shadey kinda color. My First Impression: My mind: "Oh my my, it can be red, ok get your view right - its more blue-based red on you, not redddd...marooooon, maroon is a nice shade!"  My...
