Perfume: It adds the perfect finishing touch to your day/night ahead. For us females, we look for a perfume that gives us that feminine, clean and sometimes a little flirty scent and feeling. If you're trying to impress or simply just want to feel good, a perfume can help soo much! I never used to wear perfume simply because i just forgot, but now i keep one bottle aside my makeup so i won't forget to spritz it on before leaving the house; most have beautiful packaging so they look great on display as well!
I recently received this beauty sent from Bzzagent to review. The lovely perfume i was sent was Amazing Grace from Philosophy. I would first like to bring attention to the simple yet effective packaging! The minimalist style gives you the impression of innocence and i think this reflects the scent superbly. The scent is a mix of feminine and musky. It has notes of beautiful bergamot and marvellous muguet blossoms. I feel this scent could be used both day and night so you can get a good use out of this bestseller!
Like the name says, it's an 'Amazing' fragrance and the freshness is perfect for anyone and everyone!
If you're interested in purchasing this fragrance you can click here to take you to the product on Feel Unique. The beauty retails for £34 for 60ml which i think is super affordable compared to most over fragrances.
That's all for today.

Just another review! I thought i would mix things up and steer away from beauty today. I received this box of cereal to review from Bzzagent recently and i'm going to review it for you!
I actually took all these photos with my smartphone for this post as i wasn't actually going to do a blog post on it. Either way i hope the quality is okay.
My first thoughts was that the cereal on it's own was actually quite tasteless and dull. It went soggy fairly quickly which i don't particularly enjoy. However for and organic , healthy cereal what did i expect?
I decided to add some berries and sugar to add some flavour and colour. This made it much more enjoyable to eat.
Overall, paired with a refreshing glass of OJ and berries this makes the perfect breakfast to start off the day. It is affordable and therefore i feel it's a great value for the price.
If you're looking for a new breakfast to try or perhaps a healthier alternative this is a great option!
Thanks so much for reading!

What's your favourite cereal ?

Only gone and forgot i had these photos for this review. I actually forgot to write this post up for a while but lucky for you i found the photos. Enjoy my review on the Rimmel Match Perfection foundation.
If you guys weren't already aware i am part of a community called Buzzagent where you can sign up and occasionally get sent an item for you to review. I was fortunate enough to receive this product for them to review on their site however i thought i would also share my thoughts on here for you guys.
The shade i requested was slightly too light for me so i am most likely to save this foundation for autumn/winter when i am not self-tanned.
I would say this foundation is a medium coverage but feels super light on this skin. The product lasts well on the skin and keeps the face looking flawless.
Overall if you are looking for a nice, affordable drugstore foundation i would recommend this for you to try.
I won't drag this post on any longer as i find some blog posts that are super long tend to loose my interest quicker.
I would love to know what length of blog posts you prefer. Do you enjoy the longer or shorter posts?
I would really appreciate your feedback for my future posts.
Thanks for reading!

Ugh! I really wanted to get up a review on the Look Fantastic Beauty Advent Calendar but there was a whole mess up with the delivery and now I don't have the calendar to review :(
Instead, like promised, I have decided to do an in depth review on the Rita Shades of Black nail polish in matte black by Rimmel. The lovely company Bzzagent actually sent over this product and I totally recommend you check them out!
The colour that I chose was a matte black as I wanted to step out of my comfort zone as I had never owned a black nail polish or a matte nail polish so to me this was a whole new experience! The consistency of the product was perfect. It wasn't to runny and it wasn't to thick, it was just right. The colour payoff is great and you can get a really full coverage nail with two coats. The application process was nice and easy. However the product claims to dry in 60 seconds. I do believe this is true however you still need to be cautious and smudging will still occur if you are not careful. The polish lasted me about 5-6 before it began to come off however I do have a tendency to pick at the polish. The polish becomes shiny after a few days and loses the fully matte look which is quite disappointing but overall I think the product is great, especially at an amazing £2.99 at Superdrug! You can find this product here!
Please let me know if you have tried this or any other shades and how did you find them? Don't forget to follow the blog to keep updated and check out my social media!

As I am writing this blog post I am currently watching The Great British Bake Off which I have currently started watching and I am LOVING! Anyway.... Back to the topic of this post, FREEBIES!
Since August this year I discovered the world of free samples and sometimes even full sized products. Who doesn't love anything that's free? I sure know I do! Although October hasn't been my most impressive month I thought I would still create a blog post as all my other attempted freebies posts I've either not posted in time or wasn't happy with the photo's. I've finally stopped being lazy and got the post done.
Random Finds on Freebie Sites.
I can't exactly remember the sites each products came from but if you would like a separate post on my top freebie sites please let me know in the comments.
I received a lovely sample of Grain Free Duck Dog Biscuits from The Laughing Dog. With this I also received 2 25% off codes , one for me and one for a friend. Since you guys are my friends you can use the code DogHappy17 for your first order.
Next I received 3 1 ml sachets of Advanced Genifique Serum from Lancome. This was perfect as I had just ran out of my current serum.
Another nice sample I received was from Molton Brown. I got a generous 30 ml bottle of their new Russian Leather shower gel and 6 fun scented temporary tattoos, which i shall be saving for summer or for some fall Instagram photos (@Caitpaige_xo).
For Word Thank You Day Cadbury were giving out mini boxes of Roses chocolate on Twitter (@Caitpaigexo). I thought that was super cute, and of course I ate them right away... I couldn't resist.
A nice surprise from The Guardian was this cardboard Google VR headset.
Finally from this section I received some female products from Bodyform which is always handy.
SoPost
SoPost is one of my favorite ways to receive freebies as you usually get really good sized samples and even sometimes you can get full sized! However you do have to be quick to apply especially for full sized products.
I was actually extremely lucky to receive a extra big micellar water from Garnier however unfortunately it leaked in the post, at least i still have half the bottle, it's free so you cant complain!
Next from SoPost I got a 30 ml hand and nail cream from Caudalie which I cant wait to use this as it included avocado and shea butters.
Finally from SoPost I got two gorgeous smelling 2 ml Calvin Klein samples of Obsessed for Women and Men.
Campaigns and Trials
I got my first ever campaigns and trial this month which is sooo exciting!
I was given the chance to trial two weeks worth of Trimollient spray to help with dry skin! I got this opportunity from Talk Health.
My other amazing campaign was through Bzzagent. This was my first campaign with them and it was a really good one! I got to test and review a full size Rimmel Matte Black Nail Polish. I am planning on doing another review on this blog very soon, so keep your eyes peeled!
Free Gift cards/ Voucher Purchases.
Recently I found this amazing website called Swagbucks where you participate in surveys and you collected points which you save up to redeem gift cards. In my first month I was able to collect enough to redeem a £5 Amazon gift card and a £10 Amazon gift card! It is honestly amazing! With my gift cards I bought a Technic highlighter and a Technic brow gel as well as a Nip and Fab cleanser ( Review coming soon). Overall i 100% recommend Swagbucks however you do need to have the time to fill out the surveys.
Thank you so much for reading! If you enjoyed don't forget to follow the blog as well as my social media! Do you freebie hunt?
