Recent Perfume Win

Hey guy's! Long time no see! Sorry for no posting for about a month is it? Seem's like it anyway, I just haven't felt inspired to blog lately, and I'm not gonna force myself too. So anyway, I just wanted to tell you lot about a recent giveaway I won hosted on The Sunday Girl, (go check her out) but the prize was given to me by a Perfume company by the  name of Harvey Prince. I've never heard of them, before, but I'm very impressed by what I got. Let me show you.

Clockwise to Anti Clockwise: Ageless Eau De Parfum 8.8ml, Yogini Sample, Eau Flirt Sample. I only expected the Full Size Ageless, but I was over the moon when I realized I got 2 other samples too! 

Ageless Eau De Parfum 8.8ml - My initial thought's on the perfume when I received it that it's very fruity and girly, and that was it. Then I smelled it again, and now I can't stop smelling it! To me it smell's very melony. This is a new favorite of mine and it's equal to my L.I.L.Y Perfume at the moment. It has Notes of; Pink Grapefruit, Pineapple, Mango, Apple, Leafy Green and Pomegranate. Can't stress enough how much I love this perfume. Link 

Yogini Sample- I think this sample is 3ml, hard to tell, would have been good if it said! This scent is quite strong but very subtle at the same time. I actually don't wear perfume's like this normally, as in if I saw this in a shop and tested it, I wouldn't buy it for myself because it isn't me. I really love it though. 'Experience the purifying powers of sandalwood, the age-defying glow of grapefruit, and the sensual warmth of Egyptian myrrh.' Link

Eau Flirt Sample - I've never smelled a perfume like this before. It says it has notes of pumpkin but it smells quite citrrusy and lemony, very fresh. Not much to say really on this perfume as haven't used it as much as the other too. The only thing I dislike about this perfume is that it doesn't have a pump dispenser, this one has a plastic cap on and you pull it off to get the scent.

I would just like to say another thanks to Harvey Prince for sending me the goodies and The Sunday Girl for helping me win them! I couldn't be more happy with them!
Have you tried any Harvey Prince Perfume Scent's? Which ones? 
Later, Jade xox

Blog Update.

This is just to tell you that I've made a few little changes to my blog, if you haven't noticed, but you probably have! If you haven't though, there it is. My new Banner for my blog.

Plus, I've gone back to my old blog name, Beauty Bliss, I felt I wanted a change to my old one. 

Do you prefer this design or do you like the old one better? I might add a few other changes later, so come back soon and  have a look.

Bye, Jade xoxo

My Eyeshadow Collection: Part 1

  Another collection blog post, as I love writing them as much as I love reading them myself, today its eye-shadows! Now I don't have as many as some people would day, but I suppose it'sis quite a few eye-shadows really! I have done it in two parts only because I don't want you to have photo overload! Lets get on with the post! 

 Contents Clockwise: Colour-works Colour Palette, MUA Professional Range Heaven & Earth Palette, All about Eyes Trio. 

Contents Clockwise; Colour Eye-shadow Pallete, Ruby Hammer Color Palette, MUA Single Eyeshadow Shade 2 Pearl, Rimmel London Color Rush Eye-shadow in 080 Glitzed, Collction 2000 Intense Trio in 12 Fusion, No7 Eye-shadow in 55 Wheatsheaf, MUA Trio Eye shadows in Pink Sorbet.

MUA Pro Heaven and Earth Palette- Sorry for the stock photos, I took the swatches ages ago, and really cant be bothered to get my camera out and take them. The fact that I cant do that on this laptop is also a problem. You get the gist though, packaging is simple and transparent so the eye-shadow's are easy to spot and easily recognised. If I say so myself, this is a lovely palette, and they are good for the price, but they do work much  MUCH better with a primer. When you first have this palette, the eye shadows will need getting used too, as the formula when you use them, is different to any I've used before. These are available from Superdrug and MUA store for £4.

Swatches; First six are top row, last six are bottom row. My favour ites are Number 1, a lovely white creamy colour, perfect for highlighting, and Number 9 a lovely pale shimmery brown almost gold colour, I use this on my lid for full colour mostly. 

Colour-works Colour Palette- Cant find a picture at all for this so Im really sorry, but you can look at the picture at the top. Its the one next to my MUA Palette. I haven't actually used this yet as Im trying to use up some of my older eye shadows, but will get round to using it. The pigmentation is great though, there really creamy and most of them are pearl, but even the matte ones are brilliant. This palette also contains Lip-glosses and Blush/Bronzer but Im not going to go into those. I actually got this at Christmas, so I dont know if this is still available , but I know its from  Superdrug.

All About Eyes Eye Shadow Collection- Sorry again about no photos for this one, but I actually got these eye shadows from Mizz magazine, so there are no images available. The palette consists of three (basic) colours; a light shimmery pale pink, a neutral matte brown, a light turquoise aqua. I get the most use out of the pink and brown as those come up fairly pale on the skin. I actually dont think I've used the Turquoise as I dont really like blue on my eyes. For a magazine freebie they are actually good in some forms. As I said there not there too buy because there from a Magazine. 

There is  the first part of My Eye-shadow Collection, I hope you enjoyed it, and stay tuned for     Part 2!xoxo Jade xoxo

NOTD

Hey, just a quick post today, I wanted to show you what I've had on my nails these past few days, and how the colors in the glitter look when it catches the light. Sorry the photos are really bad and blurry, its the only way I could really show you my nails, and yes they look terrible, again sorry. 

 Products used : 17 Nail Polish Black, Barry M Nail Paint in Silver Glitter and Miss Sporty Sparkle Touch. All are available to buy via Superdrug or Boots.

1.First I apply 2 coats of 17 Black, as its fully opaque in 2, with 1 it looks more on the grey scale.

2. Then 1 thin coat of Barry M Silver Glitter as you don't want it to be too thick on your nails with  all the polish.

3. After that's dried I apply 2 coats of the Miss Sporty Polish, at different stages though. You can add as many coats of this as you may like, depending on how glittery you would like it to be. Might I say, its better to dab the polish on rather than applying as normal, as I find the glitter goes on more through. 

4. Wait for them to dry and there, you are done. Enjoy your Starry Night (inspired) nails.  

Colour's that reflect of the glitter from the light, so pretty! 

I would love to do more NOTD posts, but my nails are in a horrible state and are really small, as I bite them quite a lot. I use Miss Sporty Anti Bite Treatment, but that doesn't seem to work, any suggestions?

What are your fave nail colors?

Clothes & Beauty Small Haul!

Hey lovelies! I went shopping on Friday just gone, and bought a couple of things and I thought I would share them with you. So here we go!

 New Look Peach Shorts Highwaisted £12.99 - I originally wanted a Blue Demin Version of these from the woman's section but couldn't find them, so when I saw these ones in the Generation section for only £13's, I had to buy them! I love these as they would be perfect for summer on lazy days, and the colour is beautiful too! Also in Newlook there is a top with a Cookie Monster on  ( Sesame Street) that would go with it, and I might by that when I have more money, because Im a bit short on money at the moment!:( 

Natural Collection Lip gloss in Fondant, Lipstick in Sandcastle, Pressed Powder in Neutral-  Now everything if im not wrong in Boots, is on a 3 for 2 offer, and considering Natural Collection is so good for the price, and good quality ( most of it) I thought I might as well buy a couple of things. Im loving my peaches at the moment, so when I saw this lip gloss I had to pick it up! The lipstick is a similar colour if you can see below, swatches, and its a my lips but better colour! Also, the powder is just a nessesity, as I needed a new one, the Rimmel London one a bought a while back never gets used as I really prefer this one to it. 


Foundation Brush £1 Savers- I really only bought this to try out as I've never had  foundation brush before, and for a £1 I just wanted to see if it was any good. Its not the best to be honest as, it leaves marks and streaks on my cheeks where I've rubbed it in. Not good:( Its really good for the money though, and will get used on some days.  

 Swatches left to right: Lipstick in Sandcastle, Lip gloss in Fondant, Pressed Powder in Neutral. 

Miss Sporty Nail Polishes - Now some of the things in Superdrug is also on 3 for 2, and I've been  meaning to try these for a while now, so I picked some up. I actually heard about these from Louise and liked the look of them.Now only 1 is for me, one of the glitter ones, because the other two are for my friend, its her birthday next Monday. I thought she might like them, so I got them. There opaque in one coat as you can see by the swatches.

What have you bought in Boots or Superdrug with the 3 for 2 offer?

Id be interested to know!

March/April Empties

Hey lovelies!
Today im going to share with you products I have finished on the March/Start of April Months, and tell you what I think and about repurchase or not. Okay lets get started!:)

John-sons Baby Skincare wipes in Extra Protection- I would purchase this again as I use it nightly to remove the last scrapes of makeup and to refresh my skin in the morning! Some face wipes tend to dry my skin out and make it peel but this one doesn't, they smells nice too! 
Dove Deodorants in Grape Fruit +Lemon Grass, and Original-  In terms of smell I prefer the Grapefruit one as Im a fan, and it seems in my eyes that this one works better for me, I Dont know if this just is me but?:) They work considerably well, cant really say much else as it is only deodorants! I think you can tell I like products that smell nice! 

Natural Collection Pressed Powder in Warm- Iv'e been wanting to use this up for ages now as it really isn't my skin tone colour. Dont get me wrong its a excellent product but what's the use in a pressed powder when its the wrong shade? I have just bee using this on days when I haven't been out and just stopped at home. I have the other colour neutral and that seems to be my colour, so at least I know which one to pick now! The powder defiantly lasts! 

Left to right: MUA Nail Varnish in Shade 2 and 5 or 7, and Collection 2000 Hot Looks Nail Polish in Fruit Salad and Button Moon- The MUA are really nice colours, but I Dont like the way the brush is on the varnish, I find it hard to apply with it. It is opaque in nearly one coat though which is good, but I add two for luck. Wont be a repurchase for me though! Collection 2000 Nail Polishes are amazing, they are opaque in one coat and the colours are really lovely and pastely bright! I like the fact that they are fast drying too! Fruit Salad used to be one of my fave's but Im not too keen on it as much now, but I love Button Moon so I shall be repurchasing that! 


Hope you have enjoyed this post, and keep tuned for more! Jade! xoxox

My Perfume Collection!

Hello! I bet your all fed up of my excuses of not posting so just go to say this. I've not been feeling to post lately as I've said, and when I don't post I feel bad, but then I think Im forcing myself to post, when you should really just post when you feel like it? If you get my drift..:) Anyway, today Im going to share with you my Perfume Collection, I haven't got many, but Im thinking I might do a whole bunch of collection posts, not sure.
Okay...

 These are my Perfumes! Don't have many but that will hopefully soon change..hahah.!

Close up of my So..? Perfumes! Love them!

 Fiction Perfume 100ml- I got this for Christmas off a close friend and considering (wait for it) it's from Pound land, its actually really nice and a good quality perfume. The smell isn't unique I've smelt this somewhere before, but It is good for the money, a very fruity, lively scent. Most probably suitable for Teenagers to early 20's.
J'adore Perfume  75ml- A very musky, strong scent, almost a smidge of floral and it lingers all day.  Im not one for these scents, but I got this off my sister as she didn't want it anymore, and It was free so I just have it in my drawers. One day I might like this scent, depends if the scents I like change.

 Miss Sixty Perfume 75ml-  Also another I got from my sister, and one I tend to don't use much as not a fave of mine really. Another fruity scent but has a smell of elegance too it, I cannot describe scents much so sorry if it makes absolutely no sense!
 So..? Superstar + So..? 10ml each- Got these in a pack of 4 from Boots I think, but they will sell them in Superdrug, Savers etc. Superstar is a nice fresh musky scent, while So..? smells almost like a Mens Cologne, very strong indeed. 

L.I.L.Y Perfume Sample- A new fave of mine! Very light and fresh, springy scent! For more about go check a post I did on it a week ago! 
Avon Samples- These are just a few samples I got from Avon in some delivery's, they normally give a couple out in brochure. Ones called Little White Dress, again light musk, and Solja Boy or something, its for men so a very very Cologne scent!


Thanks for reading again guys! I have a idea of doing a series of My Favorite YouTubers and Blogs to read and watch, what else do you think I could do? Jade xoxo

My Current Daily Essentials

Hey guys another post for you! This one is about my current daily essentials - products I'm loving at the moment. You might have seen a few before in recent posts. 

                                                                           

 Impulse Body Spray in Loving Words-  Love this, the smell is believable, its really sweet and summery! 
'It's a fragrance worth a thousand words. A blend of lusciously floral scents with fruity notes that will leave you feeling playful, witty and spirited. Spray it on. And let it speak for you.' Now, 75ml for £2 is quite a lot of money, but its so worth it as it smells good and it small enough to fit in a bag. 
Lynx Attract for her Body Spray - Yet another body spray but this is my favorite of all time! I seriously use this one everyday- so much that its nearly finished, glad I've got a backup. 
Dove Go Fresh Grape Fruit and Lemon Grass Deodorant- I use this daily for school, it has the claim of 48hr but I obviously don't use it for that long, but it defiantly lasts the day. The smell is very refreshing! 
Boots Essentials Eye Makeup Remover Gel- As It has cucumber extract in it, its fine for sensitive eyes and hasn't made my eye sting drastically yet! I don't use this everyday as I find if I do the outer part of my cheek starts to go a pinkish color so I use it every 2 days. 

Simple Baby Moisturizing Wipes- You get 80 wipes in whole and thats amazing as I got them for 99p! They have soothing chamomile in to make your skin softer and more radiant. I havent notice any difference in my skin, but they are a nice thing to have. Dont take my makeup of as much as I would like though.

Johnson's Baby Skincare Wipes- These have Aloe Vera and Willow herb in and make redness less visible. I use these instead of the Simple ones when I have more makeup on, as they take it off better, they are really, really moisturizing too! 

Rimmel London Lasting Finish Foundation 25 Hour in Ivory- This is my fave ever foundation , I use it every single day for school, some days it does the job, some it doesn't but that's only when you rub your face quite a lot:/
Colour-trend Plump Out Mascara and Avon Pure Brown Eye-liner- This mascara is really good for making your lashes look bigger and it doesn't clump as well so its good! The eye-liner I received in a goody-bag, and never use to wear brown eye-liner but im starting to like it more now! The pigmentation of it is brilliant! 
Aloe Vera Vaseline and Collection 2000 Hot-lights Lip gloss in 3 Glimmer- Vaseline is the best thing ever for chapped lips and making your lips smoother, and I just love the smell of this, even though its Aloe Vera it smells like sweets! The lip gloss I don't use that often but when I do , I dot a bit so its just a tint to my lips, berry colours aren't my thing, but thank you to Collection 2000 who sent me this in December 2011.

   Swatches of the mascara and lip gloss. 

My fave nail polishes at the moment are 17 Nail Polish- No shade name as I received it in a gift set for Christmas, but its a metallic turquoisey blue. The other polish is Collection 200 or Collection Hot Looks Nail Polish in Fruit Loop, which is a lovely opaque peachy color. 


Thank you guys for getting through this rather biggish post, hope you enjoyed!
If anyone would like to know where you could buy some of this, comment down below! Jade xoxo

More Free Samples!:)

Hey guys! I don't know about you but I love receiving free samples, because if you like the look of a product but want to try it first, then these are very, VERY useful! Okay these are just a couple I've received in the last 2 weeks. 

 First off, is a L.I.L.Y by Stella McCartney Eau de Parfum and you receive 1.5ml, which isn't a lot but it is free, do I'm not moaning! I'm not one to describe a scent, believe me! This is a floral , fruity scent to me, I absolutely love it! It really reminds me of another perfume I had, but cant quite think what It was! :/ 
It says:
  'LILY is a journey through the senses. It begins with the smell of a spring morning, dappled sunlight through the trees, a vision of delicate lily of the valley. It is the passage of time across a forest floor.'
I might put this on my Christmas/Birthday List as I really do love it so so much!

 The full size bottle is pretty! I received it from Boots.com

 Vaseline Essential Moisture Clean Feeling Lotion- This is also sent from Boots Free Samples, they send you a email asking if you would like a free sample of it , and then you just send them your details. This one is in Pure Oat Extract, but I'm sure there is a Aloe Vera one and a Cocoa Butter one too! You receive 50ml which isn't bad, as that should last me quite a long time! I used it once after a bath, and it does make you're skin really smooth and the dryness is hardly there. The only downside is the smell. Ew. 

 The consistency of this is very very thick, you only need the tiniest amount, that's why it will last you ages! 

 Lastly, is the L'Oreal Paris Lumi Magique Range, where I received two samples of different products. I got these today, so I cant really say much on them. The one is L'Oreal Paris Lumi Magique Light Infusing Foundation. They say 'Looks Luminous on your skin, feels light to the touch. Up to 12 hours of luminosity. '

L'Oreal Nude Magique BB Cream - They say ' Smart Pigment Capsules break on application to match your skin tone.' 

 You get 1ml in each sachet. If anyone has tried the full size products, please tell me how they have worked for you!

Thanks again for reading! Jade xoxox

Explanation.:O

Hey guys! I know I haven't been posting in quite a long time now, more than a week:O, but I do have a reason for part of that! Over some of that time, I didn't have any internet at all for about 2-3days so I couldn't do anything at all then, and the rest of the time I've been trying to catch up with some work from school and homework, so I hadn't really had the time to write any posts!


But..I have some ideas for posts and I have quite a few coming up over the weekend and in the week, so I hope you will stop by to read them! Oh and if any of you have any requests for what to blog about leave it in the comments as I love to read them!


Thanks for reading! Jade xoxo

           

                                              This is not my image. 


Looking forward to summer!:)

Haul: Newlook, Saturday Market + Mothers Day Gifts!

Hello lovelies, Sorry I haven't been posting these past few days, I have felt in the mood and I didn't have any ideas what to post about, so hopefully I will have a brainstorm soon hahah! Yesterday, I went shopping with some friends of mine and picked up a few bits and bobs. Some including Gifts for Mothers Day! Lets get started!


NewLook:

 Not much from New Look, but I noticed they had a sale on and popped in. Now this isn't from the sale, but I thought it would go perfectly with my Baggy Flowery Type Trousers, featured in a couple of posts back. Its a kind of creamy white baggy at the back top, and its shorter at the front. I thought this would be lovely in the summer as-well, as I literally live in vest tops! I picked this up for £5.99! Which is quite good for New Look I thought. 

 Price-tag{88]!

 As you may know its Mothers Day next Sunday I think, yeah next Sunday, So while I was out I decided Id start to buy things for my mom!:) First off is:
Cupcake Note Pad- Thought this was really cute and she likes writing things down, so she takes it in her handbag and I thought she would really like it! Bargain for a £1 in Pound land, I saw some in Clinton's Card Store, but they were like £3.99 and I thought these were nicer anyway!
After Eight Chocolates- She literally LOVES After Eight's or anything like that- Matchmakers. I thought I would pick these up in Savers as there really yummy, £1.39

 Bear Globe with Holographic Glitter in- Absolutely love this, soo cute and the bear is lovely! This is perfect because it can sit round the house where she can see it! £2 Savers. 

 Holding some flowers!:)

 I got these two varnishes from a Market Stall, they sell Drugstore/Department Store makeup for reduced prices. Brands include: Rimmel, Collection 200, Revlon, Miss Sporty, Urban Decay, L'Oreal etc. This first one is a Bright Greeny color which I absolutely love. Its from a brand named KG? Never heard of them before, but it was a steal for one pound! 
Next up is one I picked up for my mom again, as she likes painting her nails, but she had this one for ages so I thought I would get her a new one! She prefers pinky redy Colours, as you may see! 
Sorry I cant swatch this as I don't want to open it as Its a present.  

Swatch of Green Polish:)..NEON!:3


There you go guys, hope you enjoyed this quite small haul , but I just wanted to share with you what I got! So bye now, and comment below about what things you have bought recently, I would love to know!xoxo
