CK Eternity

Last year as a gift, my daughter gave me a set of Calvin Klein mini perfumes. I just love minis, they are way too cute! Today I will be reviewing Eternity from the set. Taken from Fragrantica- "The composition opens with fresh citrus and green notes, that is followed by the note of violet and lily-of-the-valley. The note of carnation with its spiciness gives the floral heart slightly peppery accord. The final notes are gentle with powdery heliotrope, pink sandalwood and transparent musky notes." Eternity begins with a blast of green notes. I will generally shy away from green florals, but this perfume is more fresh green rather than a piercing green.  It has a slight spiciness which makes the fragrance become slightly soapy, but in a good way.  After wear, the florals take on a creamier quality blending well with the slight tangy citrus note and musk.  Eternity is a simple to wear perfume. Fresh and feminine and lasts well, getting better and better t...

October Empties

Image
Yeah, so it's "empties" time. Which means another month is done and dusted. I am always surprised how quick these posts seem to come around. It's dizzying just how quick this year is flying! I got through a handy amount of products, it's going to feel good binning these empties! MasqueOlogy Brightening cloth masks- I enjoy how moisturising these masks are, and I find cloth masks so easy. No applying or needing to rinse off. Repurchase? I liked them, but don't feel the need to seek them out. Ciencia8 Cleanse8 Gel - This is a wonderful cleanser. Although, it's a gel, it doesn't strip the skin like some foaming cleansers can. Repurchase? I would but it's too pricey, especially when I can spend a lot less for decent products that do just as good a job. Skinn Dermalift Neck and Decollete Serum- This is the first cream I have used to target the neck area specifically. Very nice and moisturising. Repurchase? I would definitely u...

Calvin Klein "Sheer Beauty"

Image
"Sheer Beauty" is actually the first CK perfume that I have tried.   Description- " The composition is floral-fruity, opening with notes of begamot, red berries and peach bellini. The perfume's core includes flowers of peony, pink lily and jasmine. The base is velvety due to accords of sandalwood, musk and vanilla blossom." This perfume begins with a burst of tart, juicy, fruit with creamy florals. Very feminine and fresh. The sandalwood and musk manage to ground this perfume, just before it becomes quite close to the skin.  A simple blend that's perfect for Spring and Summer. Great for any occasion. It doesn't have the best longevity, but an added spritz on the clothes ensures a gentle fragrance that will stay with you.
