My Perfume of the Moment

I'm not one for particularly strong smells at all, but when I do find a scent that I like I can't really get enough! In only probably the past 2 years, I seem to have collated a bit of a perfume collection and can't seem to stop buying more! However, every now and again I get one perfume which I wear everyday and at the moment that is the Ghost 'Eclipse' Eau De Toilette.
I discovered this a few months ago walking past a stand in Boots and fell in love with it! Something about it reminds me of a memory when I was younger for some reason, I can't work out what or why but it just smells familiar. 

It's not too strong and quite fresh so I can wear it in the day and not feel overpowered by it. It's quite fruity with notes including Sweet Bergamot, Lemon, Fresia and Musk. (To be quite honest I'm not sure what a lot of them are but I can vouch that they smell lovely together!) Personally I just find it to be nice and light and not at all sweet or too fruity.

I definitely recommend going and trying this out next time you're near a perfume section somewhere!

What's your staple perfume?

My Christmas Beauty Goodies 2013

Now I know that it may seem a bit late, but I decided that I wanted my first blog post of 2014 to be about the beauty items that I got for Christmas last year. (How mad does it sound to say, or write that) I'm not doing this to brag at all about what I got, I just find that one of my favourite blog posts to read is about the things people get for Christmas, so thought I would do it myself too!

Now here's what I got...
There were a few things I've had my eye on for a long time and haven't gotten around to getting yet. I was lucky enough to get some absolutely lovely things..

The Best of Benefit Gift Set

I've always adored Benefit's products, so this set was full of loads of new and old favourites! The 'Porefessional' Primer has actually become my favourite primer of the moment and I will definitely be purchasing the full size!


Urban Decay Naked Palette
I have wanted one of these palettes for so long and haven't seemed to get around to going to town and purchasing one. This was probably one of my favourite ever present's I've gotten. I have used it every day since and will definitely be getting both of the other palettes ASAP!


Juicy Couture Viva La Juicy Perfume Gift Set
I fell in love with this perfume one day when I was walking through Boots and given a little spray on a card as they do. I've never been very adventurous with perfume, generally keeping to my Calvin Klein or Chanel one's and was hooked. It's got a full size 30ml bottle and a little handbag/travel size which hasn't left my handbag.




Vera Wang Floral Rush Perfume
My gorgeous Aunt bought me yet another lovely perfume that I have lusted after for ages. I absolutely love the design of the bottle and was so excited to open this.



Babyliss Curl Secret Hair Curler
This curler is amazing! It makes curling your hair so easy and creates the most beautiful curls. It's not the cheapest of hair tools, however if you can, I would totally recommend everyone to get one of these!



What did you get for Christmas? Any beauty goodies I should know about to try next?
