align="center"><em>Daisy is my absolute favourite perfume, so you can imagine my excitement everytime they bring out a new one, I love collecting them all and the pretty bottles.</em></p><br /><p align="center"><em>This bottle was a present from my parents when they went to the Carribean this summer they picked this up in Duty Free. I believe it is in the biggest size they do. It's a very light, delicate floral scent, perfect for a summers day.</em></p><br /><p align="center"><a title="DSC09742 by rachelheart, on Flickr" href="http://www.flickr.com/photos/63867679@N08/5985250105/"><img alt="DSC09742" src="http://farm7.static.flickr.com/6123/5985250105_6aba11518e_z.jpg" width="640" height="480" /></a></p><br /><p align="center"><em><u>Tanning products</u></em></p><br /><p align="center"><em>With this weather we are having at the moment in the UK, it's hard to know whether to tn or not. One minute I'm baring my pins, the next I'm back in my opaques. This is where instant tan comes in - if ever I haven't tanned and I wake up to glorious sunshine, this is a quick and easy solution. </em></p><br /><p align="center"><em>Rimmel Sun Shimmer in Medium Matte has been my go to instant tan for years. I dread to think how many bottles of the stuff I have worked my way through. I tend to use this for nights out the most. It gives a good, even colour.</em></p><br /><p align="center"><em>Last week I picked up this new product from L'Oreal, their Waterproof Glam Bronze Spray Foundation for legs. Obviously it's easy to apply with it being a spray, but it did go everywhere all over my bathroom! The instructions say that for a deep tan there is no need to rub it in, which I don't really agree with, I do think it does need rubbing in, or it can seem rather patchy. However, once rubbed in, this gives a lovely colour and a smooth appearance to the legs (as if I had tights on).</em></p><br /><p align="center"><a title="DSC09743 by rachelheart, on Flickr" href="http://www.flickr.com/photos/63867679@N08/5985818416/"><img alt="DSC09743" src="http://farm7.static.flickr.com/6127/5985818416_54c12261fd_z.jpg" width="640" height="480" /></a></p><br /><p align="center"><em><u>Sleek Storm Palette</u></em></p><br /><p align="center"><em>Sleek palettes are always really good quality, and the Storm palette is my favourite out of the three I own, I have been using it a lot recently.</em></p><br /><p align="center"><a title="DSC09744 by rachelheart, on Flickr" href="http://www.flickr.com/photos/63867679@N08/5985823950/"><img alt="DSC09744" src="http://farm7.static.flickr.com/6144/5985823950_4d6bb7c349_z.jpg" width="640" height="480" /></a></p><br /><p align="center"><em><u>YSL Rouge Volupte No. 2 Nude Beige</u></em></p><br /><p align="center"><em>Ever since I have owned this lipstick, the rest of my collection hasn't seen the light of day.

Actually I want to do three bottles.” He also added, “I loved what we did last year but I will love 2011 even more. I’m delighted about this collaboration.” </em></div><br /><div align="center"><em></em></div><br /><div align="center"><em>For this collection, Karl Lagerfeld has taken inspiration from the new Diet Coke heroines; Bernadette, Eleanor and Irene, the stylish puppets will appear in the brand’s latest TV campaign launching across Europe. </em></div><br /><div align="center"><em></em></div><br /><div align="center"><em>Karl Lagerfeld perfectly encapsulates the Diet Coke ‘lighter approach to fashion’. For this exclusive collection, he adds a playful and light dimension by capturing the humorous and fun personalities of each of the Diet Coke girls, through each of the bottles. </em></div><br /><div align="center"><em></em></div><br /><div align="center"><em>The first design, inspired by Bernadette, is both romantic and modern - a chic polka dot pattern in brushed metal grey contrasts with glossy white. The second bottle is true fashion, bringing Eleanor’s personality to life with a strong vibrant pink swirl encircling the bottle. The third design, in-line with Irene’s rock chick personality, has a harder, more dramatic look featuring a bold stud pattern. </em></div><br /><div align="center"><em></em></div><br /><div align="center"><em>All three designs feature Karl Lagerfeld’s famous and instantly recognisable silhouette – the designs are also numbered (1,2,3) which makes these beautiful bottles truly ‘must have’ collectibles. The ‘Diet Coke Limited Edition Collection by Karl Lagerfeld’ bottles will be available individually or as a set in an exclusive stylish prism-shaped Collector’s Box created by the designer. </em></div><br /><div align="center"><em></em></div><br /><div align="center"><em>FOR THOSE WHO ‘LOVE IT LIGHT’ </em></div><br /><div align="center"><em>As well as designing the collection, Karl Lagerfeld, already a reputable photographer within the fashion industry, has shot the Diet Coke advertising campaign featuring supermodels Coco Rocha, Heidi Mount and Jeneil Williams. Just like the bottles, each of these three supermodels has a distinct, individual look whilst working in perfect harmony together. </em></div><br /><div align="center"><em></em></div><br /><div align="center"><em>Inspired by the Diet Coke girls, these models will bring to life the characters of the puppets and perfectly encapsulate the brand’s playful and fashionable spirit. </em></div><br /><div align="center"><em></em></div><br /><div align="center"><em>Karl Lagerfeld is pleased with the latest collection and campaign, he comments, “It’s exciting for me because I love the idea and as everybody knows, I drink Diet Coke and nothing else, night and day. It was pure pleasure to do a campaign with people I like and for a product I love.” </em></div><br /><div align="center"><em></em></div><br /><div align="center"><em>Further exciting activity to celebrate this fashionable partnership is planned for later in the year, so watch this space… </em></div><br /><div align="center"></div><br /><div align="center"><em>Loves,</em></div><br /><div align="center"><a href="http://www.mylivesignature.com/" target="_blank"><img style="BORDER-BOTTOM: 0px; BORDER-LEFT: 0px; BACKGROUND: none transparent scroll repeat 0% 0%; BORDER-TOP: 0px; BORDER-RIGHT: 0px" src="http://signatures.mylivesignature.com/54488/390/388F2A550BE46C92EF1A894F9B436096.png" /></a> </div>Rachelhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/00763631033026323079noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8027101555987265215.post-69360847277864661782011-04-15T19:00:00.004+01:002011-04-15T19:56:02.857+01:00Poppy King for Boots No. 7<p align="center"><em>Last week I was sent a brand new lipgloss to review. The lipgloss in question is an exciting new collaboration between lip stick Queen Poppy King and Boots Number 7.

She is best known for her company Poppy Industries and the range of cosmetics available at Poppy Stores in Australia, during the 1990s. Poppy is renowned for creating a daring range of lip products born from her love affair with lipstick and designed to make every woman feel special. </em><p align="center"><em>"It was in danger of going the way of the Sony Walkman," Poppy King says of the fate of lipstick, the once essential cosmetic that's spent the last decade in the shadows of sparkly gloss. But with opaque shades of orange and fuchsia all the rage on the Fall runways, a bolder approach is back in favor, and who better to lead the charge than this Aussie native and former Estée Lauder executive? Now she's collaborated with No7 to create a gorgeous range of must-have lipsticks and glosses.</em><br /><object width="560" height="349"><param name="movie" value="http://www.youtube.com/v/QSqDTWpP4d8?fs=1&hl=en_GB"><param name="allowFullScreen" value="true"><param name="allowscriptaccess" value="always"><br /><embed src="http://www.youtube.com/v/QSqDTWpP4d8?fs=1&hl=en_GB" type="application/x-shockwave-flash" allowscriptaccess="always" allowfullscreen="true" width="560" height="349"></embed></object></p><a title="poppy-king-no7 by iheartthat09, on Flickr" href="http://www.flickr.com/photos/59338933@N02/5620524930/"><img alt="poppy-king-no7" src="http://farm6.static.flickr.com/5110/5620524930_dcbb48cd0a_z.jpg" width="640" height="510" /></a> <br /><p align="center"><em>I received one of the lipglosses in number 5 "Intrigue" which is described as a "pinkish nude".</em> <em><a title="PoppyIntrigue by iheartthat09, on Flickr" href="http://www.flickr.com/photos/59338933@N02/5620558944/"><img alt="PoppyIntrigue" src="http://farm6.static.flickr.com/5143/5620558944_d88645058c.jpg" width="425" height="344" /></a></em><p align="center"><em>On Intrigue, Poppy says; "For over a century now women have been intrigued by the ritual art of dressing up their lips. For this look I designed a subtle pinkish nude that is incredibly flattering without being fussy. The right lip colour will light up your skin and hair giving you a stunning glow - Intrigue is the colour of natural lips, but bolder and brighter".</em> <p align="center"><strong><em>And here's what I say;;;</em></strong><p align="center"><em>Although I feel this colour isn't best suited for my skin tone, there is no denying that the formula is highly pigmented, long lasting, non sticky and shiny.</em><p align="center"><em>All the shades in the collection are really wearable and it's nice to see a sensible brand such as No. 7 colaborating with such a quirky brand which is proven in the choice of packaging they have produced for the collection. It's colourful and fun. </em><p align="center"><em>All lipsticks and lipglosses are onsale now in Boots stores or online and retail at £12 and £11 respectively.</em><p align="center"><strong><em>Disclosure: I was sent this free lipstick to review.
