Chanel Mademoiselle - Twist and Spray Purse spray

Hello PPB's

You all know how much I love Chanel's Mademoiselle, it's my everyday go to perfume and I basically love it! 
I don't know about you, but carrying a perfume bottle around everyday can take up a lot of room in a bag and can also make it pretty heavy if the bottle is quiet full, so when the boyfriend brought me this for Christmas I was so happy! 
Cute right!! :) In total you get 60ml split into 3 20ml refill bottles. Its so simple to use too! Simply twist the top and press down on to top to spray. The packaging is so cute too with the Chanel logo on the top of a white casing, just like the box packaging for the perfume bottles. 

I love carrying this around in my bag, it makes freshening up so much easier and quicker.

Did you know
For the best long lasting scent perfume, spray it on your neck, wrists, inner elbow and behind your knees and ears. I didn't know that until the other day, but its so true!!


Whats your favourite perfume?

Lots of Love
Cara

Chanel Lipgloss - Crushed Cherry 176

Hello PPb's

So the other day this happened..
This is my first ever Chanel make up product. It's not hard to tell if you saw my lipstick collection that I am all about the dark reds and plums, I just can't get enough of them, but every lip product I own is a lipstick or stain, I have very few glosses. When I saw this while picking up present for a friend I just couldn't say no, It's the perfect new addition to my little lippy family! :)

I have to admit I was expecting it to be a lot darker on the lip than it is, in the tube its very much an dark ox red, but on the lip there is a definite pink hint. For me this is actually better but for others if it was a Dark ox red you wanted, it wouldn't be what you would get.
I wear this lip gloss over the top of MACs Rebel (another of my true loves this year)
 The purple in Rebel make the gloss just little less pink... (wow I just got deja-vu! that always creeps me out...) Also wearing the gloss over the top make the lipstick last a lot longer, although Rebel does wear very well on its own. Also the gloss on its own is a little patchy but with the lippy it gives a much better finish

The formula of the gloss is very nice and smooth on the lips and isn't sticky at all, It does need to be re applied regularly but as I have said with the lippy under neither it wears so much better! :)

All in all I love this gloss even after the disappointment with the colour its actually worked out better :)

Do you own a Chanel gloss? Whats your favourite?

Lots of Love

The Seven Deadly Sins || Tag

Hello lovelies! :)
I have seen this tag going around bloggers and youtubers for a while now and decided it was my turn :) I love doing tag posts! I find they so interesting and its always fun to find out more about the person your reading! (if that makes sense) haha.

1. Greed: What is your most Expensive Beauty Item?
I think its my 'SmashBox Photo finish Luminizing Primer' It cost £25 and I love it! Worth every penny if you ask me! :) It is also the first Smashbox product I have ever used and its made me want to try more!! Recommend anything I need to try??

2 Wrath: What Beauty item do you have a love/hate relationship with?
Eyeliner!! I love the look of winged eyeliner and if it goes right I love how it looks on me, but I just can't find a good eyeliner that doesn't either smudge or wear off really quickly, its so frustrating!! I have tried gel, liquid and pencil eyeliners from loads of brands I just can't seem to find a good one that I can work with!

3 Gluttony: What brand makes up the biggest chunk of your make up collection?
MAC!! Mostly made up from lipsticks! I can't go into MAC without buying a lipstick! I also love their 'blot powder' Its a must have in my make up bag. Sadly this is all I have left of my current one...
4. Sloth: What product do you neglect to use due to laziness?
Primer! and don't I always regret it half way through the day! It really does make a difference! I am currently loving Beautiful Movements Prime & Create mixing medium, I got it in Mays Glossy Box, It has so many uses!! I am thinking I might do a full post on it! :) 

5. Pride: Which Beauty product  gives you the most confidence?
A good Lipstick! I always feel so much better if I have a bright good quality lipstick on! Well that one was very easy! :D haha My favourite go to feel good lipstick is MAC's 'Girl about town' I did a post on it a while ago! HERE

6. Lust: Which Item is at the top of your beauty wish list?
Has to be Chanel Vitalumiere Aqua Foundation! It's been at the top for a very long time and I'm pretty sure it will be there for a very long time! haha...one day it shall me mine! :)

7. Envy: Which make up product/looks look great on others but not on yourself?
Smokey eye looks! I have small eyes and if I do a smokey eye look I just end up looking like I have been punched and my eye has swollen! I just can't get it to look good on me! But it always looks amazing on everyone else I see.
Can I have 2 for this one? Please?
Okay
Bronzer!! I can't find one that looks good on my skin! Having pale skin really doesn't suck sometimes!! In the winter I love it cause blushes good and give my that 'doll' look but in summer I just look like I have been in a dark room everyday all day and no bronzer looks good on it! it just  makes me look orange, or leaves me with very obvious contour lines! HELP!!! 

Ah I loved writing this tag post! :)
I tag you all to go it! and make sure you link me yours in the comments! :)

Lots of Love
