The Beauty Booty Bag

There’s a hint of spring in the winter air - the blossoms are blossoming, the sun is shining and there’s a surge of fabulous new beauty products to boot!

Will this scent tickle your fancy?

First off from the mark is a brand new floral fragrance called ‘Flights of Fancy’ by the legendary, Anna Sui. Inspired by the flamboyant peacock (Anna’s favourite bird), its bright packaging is sure to grab your attention! The bottle itself is illuminated by a rose pink base and is capped off with a translucent glass peacock fanning its feathers.

Fans of floral scents will adore this pretty perfume. The top notes are litchi, yuzu and java lemon and at the heart of it are hints of star magnolia, rose blossom and purple rain freesia. There is also an underlying scent of amber crystals, skin musk, and white woods.

It is available in three sizes, £23.00 for 30ml, £33.00 for 50ml and £42.00 for 75ml. Should you want to layer your scent, this fragrance also has its own bath and shower gel for £15.00 for 200ml and Body Lotion, £17.00 for 200ml.

I haven’t smelt this yet but just by judging the packaging alone, I’m finding it hard to resist. It would look so gorgeous on my dressing table.

Browsing the Brows

If you’re talking your first steps towards transforming yourself into a goddess; one of the first things you should consider acquiring are a perfect set of brows to frame your face.

To help aid your quest, check out Jemma Kidd Make Up School’s new essential brow and eye kit. It’s a compact which contains a pair of tweezers, a brow brush to keep those caterpillars in place; and a palette of three colours to add definition to your brows. What’s wonderful about this, is that you can blend the colours together and match it to the colour of your own brows.
