Cherry Blossom

I've gone through phases aplenty. I mean who doesn't. But I went crazy, really crazy, over cherry blossom, a few years ago. I fell in love with the scent of the L'Occitane cherry blossom eau de toilette. And I've been wanting to get it ever since. My cousins bought it for me when they went to Paris. I wanted the solid form actually, but they got me the 100mL one instead. Along the way, I bought the solid perfume, and some TBS cherry blossom. They don't smell the same, but it's still lovely.

So lets talk about the perfume. Both level of scent are the same, even though one is spray on EDT and one is a perfume in solid form. I like the solid one cause I can bring it everywhere. As long as I hide it in my purse, it doesn't melt. Do they melt easily? Anyway, for daily I just spray on EDT. I like that its not a perfume, so it is not that strong. Since most of my perfume are perfume, it's nice to have something less powering.

TBS shower gel is a disappointment. The scent is just not there. Just a hint, unlike the fruit series. But it works the same.

The body lotion I find that it's good. Easy to apply, absorb quite quick, works as well as any TBS lotion. It is just more watery than the normal fruity ones. The scent is not overpowering. It's quite light and you have to really sniff closely to smell it. I'm not sure if I want it to be stronger. Cause to be honest, a month half of cherry blossom, kind of make me sick.

I used the shower gel, lotion and spray on the eau de toilette and I walked out the house. I can occasionally smell the perfume, but that's it. Even under the cold air con of the bus, I could not smell the lotion, just the perfume. And that also will disappear after awhile. So unlike the strawberry lotion where I can smell like strawberries, this one is just not there.

Quite good since I eventually got bored of cherry blossom. I only have the perfume left, but I think it's best to be use in spring. For now, I think I'll just focus on the fruity section of TBS. and next time, maybe I'll get all the same brand. Even though both brands carry the same scent, it's always just a tad different.

This is in the shade 201, creamy and a hint of light milky pink. I like that it is pretty, but the shade doesn't really suit me. What I like best is that they can engrave your name on the packaging. So it is pretty. 

Beauty Uk Baked Blush

A red blush looks really intimidating on the box but I picked this up cause I want something different for my collection. It's just a cardboard box kind of packaging, secured with magnet, so it's really simple. It's quite big and like all baked product, it's dome in shape. So it's actually quite bulky. I wouldn't bring it for travel that's for sure. The color payoff is good, but instead of red it's more pink. You can use it sparingly and it will be lighter or you can pack on the color which will gives you a really bright pink. In fact, if lightly dust over your cheek it is more coral than pink. It has tiny specks of shimmer, but it doesn't show. I can't remember how much I bought this for but it wasn't expensive. It's not my favorite blush, but I find myself reaching for it a lot. So that's something isn't?
