Created by the house of Gucci, "Bloom" is a perfumer Alberto Morilla's vision of a green fragrance come to life that transports you to a vast garden filled with many flowers and plants, lots of plants.

Gucci "Bloom" Notes

Gucci "Bloom" is a floral perfume with main notes of natural Tuberose, harvested from India that is mixed with natural Jasmine. This perfume also features notes from another plant, used in perfume-making for the first time_ the Rangoon Creeper. Discovered in South India, the Rangoon Creeper embodies the new scent's concept as it changes color from white to pink to red, when it blooms.

                                                         Gucci "Bloom" Design and lasting power

The bottle of "Bloom" is feminine with retro feel. A vintage powder pink shades lacquered porcelain square-shaped bottle, with the Gucci label ribbed and framed in Black. I love the sleek and sophisticated look of this bottle.

As for lasting power, "Bloom" lasts almost all day without being too strong or overwhelming, so you can easily wear during a day. 

Gucci "Bloom" perfume

To sum up

Gucci "Bloom" is a lovely perfume to wear during a day, a slightly floral fragrance with strong green notes that makes you feel like you are surrounded by plants and some flowers too. If you are looking for a warm, sweet, earthy perfume for your night out, this is not for you but if you want to try something slightly floral day perfume with green notes, than you may enjoy wearing Gucci "Bloom".

Even though it's an expensive perfume (it's Gucci after all) the bottle lasts for a very long time. I have been using it last two years at least few times a week and and it hasn't finished yet, and  I feel like it will never finish LOL.

 Today I want to show you two new products that I had recently added to my everyday makeup routine: Hourglass Veil Translucent Setting Powder and Hourglass Ambient Lighting Bronzer. Let me start from the setting powder.

                                   Hourglass Veil Translucent Setting Powder

This Hourglass translucent setting powder is an ultra-refined powder formulated with light-reflecting particles to blur imperfections. As the brand describes, Hourglass Veil Translucent Setting powder blurs the appearance of pores, fine lines, and wrinkles for an airbrushed finish.

Hourglass Veil Translucent Setting powder and Hourglass Ambient Lighting Bronzer 

It features an innovative gold sifter and custom cap which allow for the perfect amount of product to be dispensed. I've never had any issue with it so far. 

Hourglass Veil Translucent Setting Powder 

You will appreciate the fact that this translucent setting powder doesn't contain talk, so because of that , it leaves an absolutely invisible finish , making it perfect for all skin tones. This powder is also formulated without Parabens.

It's very finely milled so it doesn't leave powdery look on my dry skin. I apply this Hourglass Veil Translucent Setting Powder after my La Mer liquid foundation and it creates an amazing natural finish.

No let's move on to another product from Hourglass: Ambient Lighting Bronzer that I bought in travel size and I'm glad I did, because this bronzer will probably last me forever. 

                                     Hourglass Ambient Lighting Bronzer 

This Hourglass Ambient Lighting Bronzer fuses the illuminating effects of Ambient Lighting Powder with bronze pigments to add depth and dimension for a sun-kissed glow.

Hourglass Ambient Lighting Bronzer 

The hand-made powders are formulated using an advanced miscelare technique to create the perfect balance of pigment and powder, and no two look alike. This bronzer can be worn alone for subtle warmth and contouring or paired with a setting powder.

I use the darker part of this bronzer as a bronzer, but the lighter part for highlighting, but you can simply use  it as a bronzer. 

I like the fact that it's not too shimmery, even though it has some simmer to it, and just like Hourglass setting powder that I was talking about in this post, this bronzer is also free from Parabens.

These were definitely great addition to my makeup collection but will I repurchase them? __ probably not, because even though I really like both products, I also like to give a try to other products. 

Thanks for reading!

I've always been Sephora gal from being Beauty Insider to VIB ROUGE over the years but I recently ended up shopping at Ulta store for the first time, for a particular sunscreen.

Even though I couldn't find that exact product, I purchased this UltaBeauty Mineral Matte Tinted Face Lotion SPF30, and signed up for Ulta Reward Program which is free.

As a welcome gift, I received this cute pink makeup bag, also, BareMinerals Prime Time Original foundation primer, Kate Somerville ExfoliKate Intensive Exfoliating Treatment, Philosophy Renewed Hope in a Jar Peeling mousse (which I yet to use) and these cute Invisi Bobble traceless hair rings.

I am going to do a quick review of this UltaBeauty Mineral Matte Tinted Face Lotion on Wednesday, so far it seems like a good sunscreen option for my skin. Have you used any of these products? Let me know in the commnets below.
Wish you all a wonderful first week of March.

Free, bold and connected young women were the ones that inspired creator of Twilly d'Hermes Eau de Parfum to create this fragrance, those "young women who turn expectation on its head, swim against the tide, impose their own rhythm, invert a brand new tempo."

Twilly d'Hermes Eau de Parfum

I got this Twilly d'Hermes Eau de Parfum gift set as one of my birthday presents back in November and quite honestly, I was little disappointed with the strong old-fashion scent. Perhaps, I was expected something like my all-time paforite perfume _ Hermes Les Aux de Marveilles. 

This perfume gift set includes:

- Twilly d'Hermes Eau de Parfum (full size)

- Twilly d'Hermes Eau de Parfum (mini size)

- Twilly d'Hermes Moisturizing Body Lotion

Twilly d'Hermes Eau de Parfum gift set

Twilly d'Hermes is not a light, sophisticated everyday perfume you would wear in the office, it's a floral fragrance but it's also sweet and spicy with oriental notes. Speaking of notes, let's mention that main notes in this perfume are ginger, tuberose and sandalwood.

I, actually, like light floral scents but here _ floral tones are mixed with spiciness (ginger is one of the top notes in this fragrance, after all,) and sweetness that makes me feel like I can't tolerate this scent for too long.

Don't take me wrong, it's not a bad fragrance, it's just not for me. 

Packaging is adorable, as you can see, the bowler hat lid with Hermes tiny scarf.  As for staying power, it lasts almost all day.

Twilly d'Hermes Eau de Parfum full and travel size

If you like light scents, you should skip this fragrance but if you like sweet, floral, strong, spicy scents, you should check this out , you may find your next signature scent. 

Have you worn this fragrance yet? How you liked it? Let me know in the comments below.

Wish you all a wonderful day!
