Speedy review: Keep Dreaming edp, by Ghost.

 This scent serves as a reminder that the most enchanting dreams are the ones you create... 

GHOST Fragrances and Great Ormond Street Hospital Children’s Charity (GOSH Charity) have joined forces to create a special fragrance called 'Keep Dreaming'. This collaborative project incorporates patient illustrations, designs, and a scent chosen by some of the wonderful young people at Great Ormond Street Hospital. And the great news is, every bottle sold contributes £1.50 to GOSH Charity. So, spritz away and make a difference for a brilliant cause.

More than just a fragrance, GHOST Keep Dreaming takes you on an immersive journey. Spritz on the magical blend of raspberry, magnolia, and sandalwood and let it transport you beyond your wildest dreams. 

Getting this fragrance took a bit more effort than usual; it is exclusive to Superdrug and they currently have a special offer on [this perfume is currently £15!], so it's been sold out everywhere.

I'd tried the tester a couple of times and I really enjoyed the scent and was also impressed by the 7/8 hour longevity & moderate aura, so quickly decided that I needed to hunt Keep Dreaming down. I checked the website & app with no success and signed up for restock notifications. However I then ended up going to four different stores looking for it, because I wanted a bottle to gilve as a birthday gift for a GHOST Fragrance-loving friend, and anyway, (based on my personal experiences) the store checker on the site is rubbish. It was indeed out of stock in every store near-by, but I checked the app again despite not receiving any restock notifications and there it was.

Anyway; I want to share the essential details about this lovely fragrance while the fantastic offer is on. I do think that it is well worth the full retail price, but who doesn't love a bargain?

Speedy review: Bombshell Intense edp, by Victoria's Secret...

 A provocative sister to Bombshell, America's No. 1 Fragrance... 

 

Inspired by the perfect red, Bombshell Intense embodies all the colour implies. Lush Cherry, creamy and bright. Velvety Red Peony for a rich, saturated take on Bombshell's signature, petally floral.

Sultry Vanilla wraps the fragrance in decadent warmth for a powerful finish.

I've recently bought my second bottle of Bombshell Intense and have realised that I've never reviewed it on the blog before. Since it is still readily available both in-store and online and I enjoy it enough to be on my second bottle, I wanted to give it a shout-out.

If you have been looking for a fragrance with a deliciously realistic cherry, then please read on...

 

No passport required... [reviewing Bombshell London edp, by Victoria's Secret]

Enchanted by the botanical charm of London, this floral fragrance features luminous garden lace peony at its heart. 

It looks like Bombshell is going on a international tour; in addition to Bombshell London, another three LE Bombshell flankers [Bombshell Lagos, Bombshell Bogota & Bombshell Tokyo] named after capital cities in countries where Victoria's Secret is sold.

I don't know if other countries are going to have their own perfume editions in the foreseeable future, or even if they'll ever be available to buy in other countries outside of their own [Bombshell Bogota in particular appeals to me], but as of right now, we can only buy Bombshell London in the UK. 

Getting lippy: That's Swell XXXL Extreme Lip Plumper, by Barry M.

Dare to turn up the heat with Barry M's That's Swell XXXL in Flames! Formulated for intense, extra-hot, plumped lips... can you handle the heat?

Caution... extra hot! Turn up the temperature with That’s Swell XXXL Extreme Lip Plumper! Infused with Sichuan Pepper and Ginger Root Extracts to stimulate your lips natural collagen for an off the scale, maximum volume plumping effect! The only question is: can you handle the heat? Warning: Contains tingling sensation to plump lips! 

I'm a fan of lip plumping glosses - I've never noticed any real plumping results [except for one], but I love the tingling/faint burn sensation they have on the lips. Therefore when I stumbled across this when looking for the NYX Duck Pout glosses, I had to give it a go....

The great bake off.. [reviewing Easy Bake edp, by Huda Beauty]

 Bold, extremely sensual, and delicious, we took the iconic fragrance from our Easy Bake Loose Setting Powder and bottled it!

Capturing the seductive, creamy floral bouquet from our cult-fave powder, our limited-edition Easy Bake Eau de Parfum is a signature perfume that leaves an irresistible scent trail wherever you go.

Bursting with juicy pear, this sexy opening develops into a heart of an iconic tuberoseli infusion. A sensual base of vanilla & amber creates a powerfully irresistible fragrance with the staying power of our O.G. loose powder!

Today we're taking a dip into another perfume that I had no idea was in the works, until I just happened to randomly stumble across an online announcement about it being available. As it is labelled as there only being a limited amount available, I'm guessing then when it's sold out it's not coming back, so I wanted to get my review up ASAP to hopefully help people make their minds on if they want it or not. 

It's certainly not a secret that I really enjoy enjoy Kayali fragrances and since Kayali is attached to Huda Beauty & Huds's sister is the CEO for Kayali,  I was instantly curious about just how well Huda can do in comparison - my bench mark is set high.

Needless to say; I couldn't resist making a purchase...
