Happy Weekend my dears! Are you rocking this weekend? I hope so!
Today I want to talk "Perfume" with you. For the past few years my go to scent for Spring was Miss Dior Chérie L'eau. Now the hardest part since it's been discontinued and my last bottle finished, was that I had to find another favourite scent. and that is not an easy thing, because I'm quite picky about perfumes. While I love wearing perfumes, I get quickly fed up with most scents. I was resign not to ever find another scent I'd really love.
So I went to my local perfumery, decided to buy whatever was nice and affordable, because anyway I knew in a few days I would be fed up. When I entered the store I noticed they were having 20% on all Bvlgari and Burberry perfumes. I saw Burberry has launched a new Perfume called Body for Spring and since it was so affordable I decided to give it a try. It has been over a month now I'm wearing this scent everyday! That's enough saying if you know me. This perfume has a strange quality on me (maybe on everybody, I don't know), it evolves, it changes throughout the day. It has a really fresh but intense scent at the same time. I really suck at describing scents, but I was so pleasantly surprised by this perfumed I decided to share it with you.  
So I left behind my orange flowers beloved notes, to pass to Peach, Fressia, Iris, Rose and Green Absinthe, being quite skeptical. But I'm pleased overall and keeping this scent on for Spring!
What are your favourite scents this spring? Have you tried Burberry Body? What do you think about it?

Hi darlings! Happy Friday to you all!

How are you doing today? I'm not feeling at my best and thought I wouldn't bare to paint my nails because I've been coughing all day. Instead I'd like to share with you all the products I've used up recently.

I've decided to write a post like this every two months because I get many products in big sizes, so it takes a while until they're finish, and also sometimes I have several products of the same kind open at the same time (lets say hand creams, lip balms, etc.) and it takes longer to use them up.

So here is the list:

I came across this perfume at the end of September, and to be honest I tried it out because of the name. Ever since I first saw the Roberto Begnini's film La vita è Bella, many, many (many) years ago, its title has become my motto. I fell in love with the story back then, because it was like a poem, an ode to optimism and unconditional LOVE for life. I can't help to think about it when I were this fragrance, so my judgement is not objective at all (as anyone's could be). Optimism an unconditional Love this is what this scent evokes to me. But that just me.

For the rest, I really suck describing scents, so I'll copy-paste Lancôme description:

La vie est belle: French expression (Life is beautiful)
[Philosophy of life and happiness or universal declaration to the beauty of life.
Eau de Parfum with the noblest natural ingredients [Concrete of Iris Pallida, Jasmin Sambac Absolute, Orange Blossom Absolute, Patchouli Essence...] lain on a bed of fine delicacies.
Unique olfactory signature exclusively created for Lancôme by three of France's leading perfumers.

How's your weekend so far? We're in the middle of carton boxes, again, starting to UNpack in our new house. My hands and nails have certainly suffered these days! I was needing a break and I thought to publish this idea I saw somewhere and that was in my drafts. "The Empties!!"
This is what I've used up the past month or so, and my opinion whether I'd repurchase or not:
