Flying in the first breeze of Spring..
Yesterday I purchased some treats for myself as I NEEDED them, it was a great Saturday and here's what I got..
'Cherry blossom' is my favourite scent from L'Occitane, I love the light fresh floral fragrance that is very soft and Spring like. Have a whiff next time you are by a store. I have currently been hating my usual sweet overpowering fruity scents and even dark sexy scents, I just want something clean and fresh and 'Cherry Blossom' is it.
I also ordered this collection from QVC yesterday which was the TSV. I am well pleased! :)
A trip to Space NK and I left with 2 things. Nars 'Super Orgasm' illuminator and 'Shu Uemura painting liner'.
As soon as I swatched the Super Orgasm illuminator it had to be mine.
It's the perfect golden peach with tiny flecks of finely milled golden glitter, it's pigmented and makes a great highlighter/illuminator for my skin tone. The'Copacabana' and 'Laguna' illuminators looked pretty too but didn't wow me like 'Super Orgasm' did.
I have a small sample of the standard 'Orgasm illuminator' and here's a comparison. 'Super Orgasm' is much more pigmented and has a lot more dimension, it is also peachier in tone. The standard 'Orgasm illuminator' was such a disappointment but 'Super Orgasm' isn't, for me anyway.
I usually stick to my blacktrack fluidline by Mac, but this time wanted to try the Shu Uemera one, I got it in black noir and I am happy to say it's suitable for the waterline. However, so far I am not entirely happy with the product, as it doesn't dry quick enough when applying, the colour transfers onto my eyelids, maybe I am doing something wrong, help me out if you can! :)
It's a very dark black which is excellent and looks superb on the waterline like no other, I will do a full review on it once I have used it a lot more.
Do you have any of these products, if so what are your views?
L'Occitane 'Cherry Blossom Eu du toilette 100ml' and a 'Milk extra gentle soap'.

The perfume sounds gorgeous too. I love the body shop's cherry blossom.
This is a bit of a random question but which permanent line MAC eyeshadows would you recommend for hazel eyes, medium-olive undertone skin and dark brown hair? You've done so many nice eye looks with MAC shadows I thought I would ask you before I buy any :)
Love your blog btw, been reading back through all your posts!

Sorry, no help with the Shu liner- I haven't strayed from my fluidlines! ;)

I applied the treatment each morning and evening after cleansing my skin and before moisturizer/primer and then makeup. Within just a few days I could see that my skin was much more supple and smooth - particularly in the t-zone. After about two weeks, I loved the beautiful glow my skin had - even without makeup.
I loved the Cherie Fleur handcream L'Occitane has, but haven't tried any of their other products yet. So many brands and products, so little time and money!
