SOTD- Judith Leiber Night

I love being introduced to a product that I have never heard of before. There are no expectations. If it's not so great, oh well, but if it's great, score!
Judith Leiber "Night" is described as "an intense, rich and intoxicating oriental fragrance. Glamorous and sensual. It is intended for elegant evening occasions  and nightlife opportunities. Composition developed by Firmenich mixes hot spices, sexy flowers, woody and oriental ingredients. The fragrance opens with notes of bergamot and black cinnamon, leading to the floral heart night blooming jasmine, peony and lily. The background represents a blend of oriental caramelized amber, intensive patchouli , creamy woods and incense."

 This perfume was given to me because it was one that my teen daughter wasn't keen on. I had never heard of this brand before, but not one to knock back the opportunity to try a perfume, I promptly applied it.

 This sweet, rich fragrance is elegant, yet oh-so-sensual. The florals are intoxicating, but not too heady. "Night" is spicy, exotic and mysteriously complex, yet blended so beautifully that the notes do not compete for a starring role. 

 Surprisingly, this fragrance is not one that enters a room before you do. The warmth envelopes the wearer like a lover's hug.

 I only have a sample of this perfume, and will have to use it sparingly, until I can justify buying a full size. A little out of my price range, but I must add the classy bottle of Judith Leiber's  "Night" to my perfume collection.

      Oh, that bottle is gorgeous, isn't it! Recommending perfumes is so tricky, they can smell so different on other people. My Perfume Samples is such a great way to try different perfumes, except for the part where you order many, and also love a lot of them, lol

BYS Berries Palette

Image
I have bought from the brand BYS in the past, but I can't say I've actually sought out anything from them. Well, that was until I saw swatches popping up on my Instagram feed of the Berries palette.  It's a 12 pan palette and has a similar vibe going on to the much loved and raved about ABH Modern Renaissance palette. Of course, I do not own the pricier ABH palette, but I just had to have the Berries palette. Taken from BYS - "BYS Berries Eye Shadow Palette features an array of 12 expertly chosen, highly pigmented matte and metallic eye shadows. The 12 piece palette comes housed in a modern, embossed tin. featuring a mirror and 2 dual end applicators." The tin packaging of this palette is really cute, it reminds me of the Naked 2 and 3 palettes. It is a little bulky, but I like it. Let's take a peek inside Oh yes, I'm all about those warm orange and plum tones. There are 3 shimmery shades and the rest are matte. Here's the sw

BH Cosmetics Carli Bybel Deluxe Palette and Giveaway

Image
When BH Cosmetics released the original Carli Bybel palette I was tossing up whether I was going to purchase it or not. Sure, it was pretty with lovely neutral shades, but I was trying to cut down my eye shadow palette buying to only palettes that I really, really had to have and I wasn't convinced that was the case. When the Carli Bybel Deluxe version was released containing 15 shadows and 6 highlighters as opposed to the original which had 10 eye shadows and 3 highlighters, I had to have it. I went as far as pre-ordering the palette before it was even released. The sneak peek swatches had won me over! Taken from BH Cosmetics - "This palette features 11 original shades plus 10 chic new shadows and highlighters in buttery blendable formulas with staying power." The palette is a large square with magnet closure and complete with a cardboard sleeve. The palette is so pretty, I love the rose gold writing on the quilted pintuck background design.
