Love etc

I usually attach the a fragrance to the first time I smelled it or a to a memory. When I smelled this beaut the first time I was having a blast with my friends. So this review might just be based on my own experience #selfabsorbed. I've read up on the different notes of the perfume: Top notes - pear, neroli, bergamot (Pause) Now, Neroli essential oil possesses mystic qualities of evoking various emotions from a person. They range from happiness to sexual desires. Pear and bergamot are know for being mood lifters. CAN ANYONE SAY HAPPINESS!!! Middle notes - Lilly of the Valley, Jasmine (having a calming effect) and heliotrope. Base notes - Vanilla (yum), sandalwood and musk cream (sounds like an awesome milkshake) The combination of all of the above gives you an amazingly uplifting and calming, sweet smell that lingers. And it is so affordable (R189) for the EDT and (R199) for the EDP. This is definately one of my favorites.

Anew by Avon

I was blessed with a lovely youthful looking skin. Even though my popularity in school was sub par my amazing skin usually had the really popular girls jealous. With my hectic lifestyle: demanding job, studies, house chores and extracurricular activities, my time for a proper beauty regimen was very limited. My step sister told me about a special Avon was running on the Anew Day cream, Night cream and the eye cream and suggested I buy it - which I did and I'm not sorry for one second. Now I use facial wipes before I apply the creams in the morning and at night. My skin feels silkier and the tone is even. The Rejuvenate Revitalizing Day cream is also a SPF25 sunscreen and because of this reason I was scared of oiliness, but to my surprise all I felt was a soft, silky skin. The Rejuvenate Revitalizing Night cream feels like velvet on my skin and absorbs quickly. I slathered it on just before going to bed and the next morning I swear a wrinkle was gone. The day and night eye creams come in one container - very convenient. I got all three for R290.00 but the normal price is plus minus R250.00 for each, but it goes a long way.
