Rare Platinum Eau De Parfum review | AVON

PRICE: £13.00

SIZE: 50ml

I had actually never bought or even tested this product before. I ordered purely just because mine was going to run out and I have no patience to go into shops and buy perfumes from those huge cabinets, they're always too crowded. So, basically, I ordered it as a last minute thing. And you'll never guess what pushed me to buy this one... It was the one with the cutest packaging at the time. Don't take spontaneous shopping advice from me. Just kidding, this was a good surprise.

This perfume smells absolutely lush, it's such an elegant fragrance. It's super feminine. The description in the catalog is ''Bursting with sparkling white grapefruit, intoxicating platinum tuberose essence and exotic blonde sandalwood'', and you can literally smell everything listed, even though the tuberose is probably the scent in it that stands out to me the most, but yet again, everyone's sense of smell is different.

• The scent is lush, super feminine and sweet.
• If you're an active person, the scent probably will not last very long on you but like always, for best results, apply behind the ears, on wrists and in the arm crease, you can even apply a little bit of Vaseline on to the area you wish to spray and the fragrance will stick to the area.
• The packaging and bottle are super cute so perfect for a gift for someone special.
• A negative point about this product is that there is no lotion, or body spray to match with this fragrance yet as it's fairly new. It isn't something important for everyone but I'm the sort of person that loves buying the whole set if I try a perfume and like it, so it's a negative point for me.
• The Rare collection has three other perfumes for you to choose from. Check out one of my other post on the following link to find out which scent matches each of the Rare fragrance collection perfumes: Rare Gold, Rare Amethyst and Rare Pearls.

Liquid Lipstick in the shade 'Heathers' review | Anastasia Beverly Hills

PRICE: £16.00

There is one thing I love about a good lipstick, and that's that it smells lush, this liquid lipstick really ticks that box. This was the first liquid lipstick I have ever tried and it has set my expectations so high for every other liquid lipstick I try since.

It literally dries within seconds. This can be a negative point for a lot of people because it dries before you can fix up any imperfections. But for me, this is literally perfect. I'm a very last minute person when it comes to getting ready on a normal day basis. This means I'll usually be putting my lipstick on minutes before I have to head out of the door, so it's really important for me that the liquid lipstick dries super fast. Otherwise, I guarantee I will be messing it up as I leave.

The lipstick is very pigmented and this is perfect too, because we don't want to be putting layers and layers of this on our lips just to get the best color pay off. I only have to put the brush stick in the bottle twice to do my upper and bottom lip.

However, if you are aiming to outline your lips in a really precise way then you may want to try applying the liquid lipstick with a lip brush and then go round the lips to cover up all imperfections with concealer.

I RATE THIS LIQUID LIPSTICK 10/10.

Alpha for Her EDP Review | AVON

PRICE: £15.00
SIZE: 50ml

This perfume smells absolutely amazing. The scent is very distinctive, I'm really fussy with perfumes because I prefer the super girly and sweet smells and this one ticks off all the boxes.

The scent is super girly and sweet. It reminds me a lot of raspberries and flowers. Even though the perfume is actually meant to smell like raspberry fizz, honeysuckle and cashmere woods. It's a really warm and extremely feminine smell, which I absolutely love.

• This perfume is super long lasting. For best results, apply on to the wrists, neck, behind ears and in crease of the forearm (you know, where you usual get stabbed when you go for a blood test, you get me).
• You can get the matching body spray to take on the go and also the body lotion to pamper your skin a little after a nice long warm bath or shower.

LIFE Eau De Parfum Review | AVON

PRICE: £24.00
SIZE: 50ml

This perfume is part of a collaboration between AVON and the international designer Kenzo Takada to create the perfect scent. 

This fragrance smells beyond lush. It's one of those scents that are literally perfect to wear during Autumn and Winter. 

The scent that has been created for this perfume is so perfect and floral. The perfume smells of waterlilies, violet with a perfect twist of iris flower. It does exactly what it claims to do, the scent is perfect all day long, even if you're out of the house and super active (mine survives all dday through baby sick so that really just says something, ladies).

I seriously think this is the perfect perfume as a gift for that special someone this Christmas, much love will be thrown at you forever.

• This perfume is available in a gift set for her this Christmas from AVON. The gift set includes: this amazing perfume, the body lotion to match this perfume, the body spray to match the perfume, Anew Clinical Advanced Resurfacing Peel, Advance Techniques 360 Nourishment Moroccan Argan Oil Treatment Mask, ExtraLasting Lipstick in Ravishing Rose, all in a super cute gift bag.
• It's a perfect gift idea for someone special this Christmas.
• There is also a version of this perfume but for men, which smells amazing as well. by the way.

Ideal Flawless Matte Mousse Foundation Review | AVON

I absolutely love this foundation. I ordered it a few weeks ago to try it out as I had heard many good things about it, plus I run out of foundation like anything so some back up foundation is always needed.

This foundation is super creamy and blends on to the face perfectly. I chose to buy this foundation in the shade 'medium beige' and I finally found a shade to match my skin tone. I wouldn't say this foundation is full coverage but it has enough coverage to cover imperfections and still looks natural at the same time.

However, I prefer to apply this foundation with a beauty blender instead of a foundation brush because due to it being a mousse, it least streaks on the face if applied with a foundation brush. The beauty blender just gives it that flawless, natural finish. 

Good points

• Creamy.
• Natural finish.
• Easy to find a shade to match your skin tone.
• Easy to blend with beauty blender.
• A little goes a long way.

Bad points

• Unable to get a natural finish when applying with foundation brush.
• Streaks are left on the face when applied with brush due to its creaminess.
• If you have a lot of dead skin around your t-zone it is important to exfoliate, especially your nose, when using this foundation because it enhances that.

I rate this item 8/10

Far Away Eau De Parfum review | AVON

PRICE: £13.00

SIZE: 50ml

This perfume is like, one of the most old school fragrances of all time. I remember being super young and my mum would always wear this perfume every day. I'm pretty sure it didn't change for years. So obviously when I got back to buying from Avon this year, I had to buy it for myself. It just smells too good to resist it.

This fragrance is a lush combination of freesia, jasmine and vanilla musk. But I'not going to lie, I used to think it had a bit of coconut in there somewhere but now that I'm better with figuring out different scents, I can really smell the jasmine straight away now.

This perfume pretty much lasts all day unless you're sweating loads and doing a bunch of exercise, because you know, there's just things no perfume can overpower. But for best results, apply to creases of forearms, wrists and behind the ears. 

• This perfume comes in a super cute bottle, so it's great for a gift as well. Especially with Christmas coming up.
• A super cool thing about this fragrance is that you can also get the body lotion, shimmering body powder and body spray to match it. 
• It's one of the most old school perfumes I can think of.
• It's got a super feminine scent.

I love this perfume a little too much.

So I'm going to have to rate it:
