Getting Cheeky: P.Louise Cheek Of It Liquid Shimmer Blush in Bubblegum Beam.



Introducing our brand new Liquid Shimmer Blush, a smooth liquid formula formulated to add an intense rosy reflect to the cheeks with a gorgeous, glowy finish. In its popular, well-loved packaging, this liquid blush features a built in sponge tip applicator suitable for both personal and professional use. Its cushioned tip helps evenly dispense the product for a firstly flush of colour and a sparkling sheen.

I recently ordered a Trippple Up Box from P.louise [why didn't I think to post about it🤦‍♀️], and one of the mystery items I got was this new-look blush. I adore the resgular liquid blushes from P.louise, so was thrilled to get one of the shimmering versions to try.

Re-do The Review: Vanilla Candy Rock Sugar | 42 edp, by Kayali.

Sugary. Delightful. Tempting.

Live your sweetest fantasy with Vanilla Candy Rock Sugar | 42 Eau de Parfum! Sugary, delightful, and tempting, this fragrance is a lighter, youthful take on the brand’s cult-fave, Vanilla | 28.

Inspired by Mona’s love for candy and mouthwatering notes, Vanilla Candying so one of the most desired notes in fragrance with its delicious blend of sweet ingredients.

Vanilla Candy was a big disappointment for me when I first got it in 2024, but lately it has been working really differently with my body chemistry that it has been like wearing a different fragrance - maybe the effects of my multiple Covid infections lasted longer than I previously thought? 

Anyway; my current experience with this fragrance is so different that I feel that a new review for it is warranted...

Speedy Review: Easy Bake Intense edp, by Huda Beauty.

 This floral gourmand fragrance rich, s#xy, and unapologetically intense. It wears all day with an addictive trail.

Juicy wild cherry opens the scent, deepening into s#xy white florals layered with warm, spiced cinnamon bark and creamy caramel milk, before melting into a rich, addictive vanilla bourbon base.

Inspired by the signature Easy Bake Loose Powder scent, now intensified. This fragrance transforms icon into a rich scent experience… the final step of glam, bottled.

I love the le Easy Bake perfume that Huda Beauty released in 2024, so I couldn't wait for this to launch

 so I could test it to find out if it is even half as good - just  reaching the halfway mark will be good enough for a place on my wishlist...

My common sense didn’t awaken; reviewing Attraction Awaken for her edp, by Avon.

Make bold moves with the tempting oriental and woody fragrance of Attraction Awaken for Her...

Feel the anticipation with juicy blackcurrant, sensual black tuberose and a powerful passion potion accord - a note infused with leather, amber, musk and rum-soaked wood.

Long story short; I ordered the wrong thing, because I had convinced myself that Attraction Awaken was the latest release in the Attraction line. I remember flìcking though the catalogue and thinking "hmm, I'm  not sure why this would be chosen as a late spring/summer release", which should have been enough to make me pause and take another look - but nope, I guess that I was having a dumb day...

Anyway now I have it, let's find out how well this wears during the warmer months.

I want to play: reviewing Attraction Game edp, by Avon.

JSpritz the sensual fragrance onto your pulse points to tempt your senses, tease your body and stimulate your mind...

Attraction is a game and it’s time to play, so make your move with the woody and amber perfume of Attraction Game for Her Eau de Parfum. 

The fragrance that’s designed to stimulate your sensory neurones to unlock undeniable pleasure, with spicy pink pepper, rich dark chocolate and luxurious velvet woods.

Avon currently has a 2-for-£22 offer on the perfume's in the Attraction fragrance line, so I was going to finally get a bottle of the original alongside the new launch [Attraction Awaken]. 

However I ultimately couldn't pass up the opportunity to get the flanker I'd paid attention to since it's launch & have been seriously eying up for the past few months instead, as there'll no doubt be plenty of future offers available to pick up the original. 

So, for now, let's take another step back in the Attraction timeline and meet Attraction Game.
