Boots Fragrance free Cleansing Lotion

Advantages: Cheap, takes off make-up really well, doesn't irritate or sting
Disadvantages: None

...I was on the lookout for a cleanser that would do the job well, contained no lanolin (I'm allergic), cheap, and didn't look cheap and nasty. I spotted this cleanser in Boots and being £1.45 with LANOLIN-FREE on the back. I couldn't decide between the cucumber version or the fragrance-free version and bought both. Along with the matching toner. Well, they were very cheap! I'm writing for the fragrance-free version here but they are exactly the same other than the packaging and the cucumber scent. It comes in a sheer blue 150ml tube, with a darker flip-top lid. It doesn't look expensive, but then again, it doesn't look cheap and nasty sitting on your bathroom shelf either. The writing is navy and very small. It claims to remove make-up and grime quickly and effectively. It is lanolin free, is vitamin-enriched and is dematologically...

Review of Boots Fragrance Free Cleansing Lotion

The Perfume of a Princess!

Advantages: Smells Very Distinctive, Long Lasting, Beautiful Bottle, Very Feminine
Disadvantages: May be too sweet and floral for some

...One of my favourite things to treat myself to is perfume and those who have read my earlier reviews will know that I am a self confessed perfume addict. I love the different varieties you can buy all with their own distinctive scents and pretty bottles. I have worked hard at my perfume addiction though and have really cut back on the amount that I buy ? these days I adopt a one in one out rule as I started getting far too many bottles of half used fragrances sat in my wardrobe (any perfume lover knows that you keep bottles out of daylight to keep them smelling fresh). Before we went on honeymoon I used up a couple of bottles of perfume and so I decided to treat myself to something new rather than buy a replacement for the fragrances that I just finished from the duty free shop at the airport. I had already been and tested a few...

Review of Vera Wang Princess Perfume

The Princess and the Perfume

Advantages: Light and delicate scent, sexy
Disadvantages: Slightly expensive

...If you've already read my Vera Wang Princess Satiny Body Lotion review, you will know I recieved this perfume along with the gift set from my boyfriend for my Birthday last November. And as promised, I said I would write a review about the Vera Wang Princess perfume, so here I am now. Vera Wang, if you haven't heard of her, is a lady from New York. At frist she was an editor for Vogue magazine,then going on to do other things. She started designing dresses for celebrities and now owns her own Wedding Dress collection. She has her own Vera Wang accessorie collection and more importantly her own fragrance collection, including more scents than just the Princess collection. As the story goes, Vera Wang Princess collection is a new spirit in fragrance, inspired by a modern-day princess. Confident, indipendent, with a total zest...

Review of Vera Wang Princess Perfume

Where's The Fragrance?

Advantages: Attractive.
Disadvantages: Very disappointing - lack of fragrance!

...or indeed even a normal match, it's just too low down! There is therefore a very thick, waste of wax from the top of the glass, around the wick to where it is burned down to at this stage and I loathe waste!! ~ The Smell ~ I was really looking forward to the warm, wintery smell of the nutmeg and I am not averse to pomegranate although not really an expert on the scent given by a pomegranate so I couldn't wait to have my room filled with these fragrances. On opening the packaging, I was a little disappointed, not a strong smell of either of these products but I had high hopes for when it was lit. I like my scented candles to mask the smells that can sometimes develop in a room during the winter months when the windows and doors aren't opened as regularly as I would like but this just doesn't do it for me. Even when lit there isn...

Review of Next Pomegranate and Nutmeg Fragranced Candle

A Youthful Fragrance.

Advantages: It tends to suit mature skin.
Disadvantages: It is a bit pricey..put it on the Christmas pressie list.

...of the valley, gardenia and jasmine. Then to add some body to the fragrance Cacharel have added the scent of cedar, other flowers and leather. The floral notes far outweigh the base notes and I think that is why Anais Anais seems to suit mature skin, youthful skin can cope with the harder perfumes. Anais Anais is a gentle, delicate almost romantic perfume. This may be the body mist that we are talking about but the fragrance is enough without needing a perfume top up. One particularly good thing about using a spray as opposed to a full blown perfume is that you can top up during the course of the day and the smell doesn't become overwhelming. The body mist is alcohol free but that doesn't stop it from drying quickly, the fine spray is so light that it is absorbed into the skin very quickly. Once you have used the body spray you cannot feel it...

Disadvantages: None

Luckily for him, he is one day sent on an errand in town, and it is there that he discovers the most intoxicating scent... that of perfume.

Review of Fragrance Direct

Bratty perfume from the bratty mother!

Advantages: A nice set for someone else's child!
Disadvantages: Not my idea of a young girls set!

...Ok I am officially a horrible person! Every year we (myself, my daughter, her school friends and there parents), attend the Easter bingo at her school. This year was no different! A group of us went and as usual commandeered a table and settled down to a fun night! During the final throws of the evening (the raffle!), my friends daughter and my daughters best friend Courtney handed me her perfume to smell, (these bloody kids are more like teenagers, scary considering they are only 7!), I pulled at the lid thinking that was the way it opened, only to be told it was a screw lid, about five seconds after I had snapped the top of the bottle off! I felt so bad about it, especially when the girls eyes watered slightly, that I promised to buy a replacement bottle?. Hence this review! The product I will now review is ?Bratz...

Review of Harajuku Lovers Fragrance

The aroma of fragrance Direct

Advantages: Cheap perfumes, wide variety, great offers
Disadvantages: None

...I first came across Fragrance Direct when I was working for lastminute.com, they visited our office for the day and set up a stall promoting their service. Fragrance direct are a company dedicated to keeping fragrance costs low, therefore offering exceptional value for money and I really feel that they do offer this. A bit about Fragrance Direct Fragrance direct launched in 1993 with direct sales visiting large companies and workplaces to try and increase their customer data base, this was extremely successful as they went on to launch their first website in 1999 which led them to massive growth and have since been able to expand on their product ranges to include make-up and skincare products.
