The Beauty Easter Eggs You Need To Get Your Hands On!

Easter Eggs have been on sale since Boxing Day, or at least that’s how it feels. To that extent, as much as I love Chocolate, the excitement of waiting for a Cadbury’s Cream egg to be on sale has worn off, I can get them any time of the year now and well, it just isn’t the same.
The Beauty Easter Eggs You Need To Get Your Hands On!
With Easter rapidly approaching, there is plenty of alternative products to be had and many of them filled with beauty products and here are some of my favourites:


Glossybox - With their constant sell out Beauty Boxes, Glossybox is launching their first-ever beauty Easter egg and it looks just absolutely incredible. Inside you'll find a whole host of must-have minis from brands such as Pixi, Benefit, Living Proof and more! The beauty Easter egg is worth over £80 but will come with a £30 price tag when it launches on April 9th and you can subscribe and find out more right here (afflink).

L’Occitane - If ever someone could take a beauty product and turn it into a beautiful egg, it would be L'Occitane. This Easter, there are two offerings from L'Occitane - Almond and Cherry Blossom.  Inside each egg, you will find three best-selling mini products which include soaps, shower gels and hand creams.  They cost just £15 each and are available now from Fabled, allbeauty and Debenhams.


L’Oreal - The limited edition L’OrĂ©al Paris Beauty Egg is already available to buy at Superdrug and not only does i make a great treat at just £5 here, but it is also an amazing treat for your skin or the skin of a loved one over Easter.  Inside you will find the calming and deeply cleansing Pure Clay Soothing Mask (full-size, 50ml) with floral Mallow Flower extract. Exfoliate with Smooth Sugars Glow Scrub (4ml) to leave your skin and lips feeling radiant. Finish your cleansing routine with the hydrating Hydra Genius Liquid Moisturiser (3ml).  What's more, it costs just £5 but be warned, it is constantly out of stock, so if you see it, grab it!


Lookfantastic - Whilst the contents might be being kept under wraps, there has been quite the excitement over the Easter Beauty Egg offering from Lookfantastic and there will be at least 7 products inside.   It will be priced at £65 and you ensure you get your hands on it, you can register right here (afflink)

I Heart Revolution - Last year Revolution launched 6 metallic surprise eggs, which I have to admit were very cute and a great gift for my younger relatives and goddaughters. This year we have four new additions and they cost just £5 each and they all contain 5 eyeshadow and 2 highlighters and you can grab them in shades Flamingo, Chocolate, Chick and Candy and they cover everything from your neutrals to the more bold shades. Find them all here.

I have no doubt over the next few weeks we will see a whole lot more coming from brands by way of Beauty Easter Eggs, last year there were offerings from Lush, Olay, Essie, Tony Moly and Ghost Fragrances to name just a few!

Which brand will you be hoping to see an Easter Egg Beauty release from?

Justbox Perfumes - Live 'N' Loud Eau de Parfum

This week is National Fragrance Week and what a better way to celebrate it than to introduce a brand new scent from a brand that until now, I had never come across.  Jusbox fragrances are described collectively as being an exclusive range of luxury fragrances inspired by the connection between perfume and music.
Justbox Perfumes - Live 'N' Loud Eau de Parfum
Justbox Perfumes - Live 'N' Loud Eau de Parfum
Two things that evoke thoughts, feelings, memories and in some cases nostalgia are music and perfume.  I can always remember where I was and what I was doing when one of my favourite songs comes onto my Spotify playlist, it is on that favourites list for a reason and with it comes a whole host of memories.  With perfume, I have a collection of fragrances that mean something to me personally, be it Tribe (review here) which brings me back to my teenage years of Bvlgari Pour Femme which I wore on my wedding day, the two things combined is quite powerful.

Anyone who knows me will know that I love an Oud, not just any Oud, it has to be a good one and when you find one, you will know it is for you.  Live 'N' Loud comes exquisitely packaged from its brightly coloured musical note decorated outer box, to the inner detailing and the bottle itself, it screams luxury and it most definitely is and it also has quite the description.
Live’n’Loud is a scented compilation whose notes reproduce, through the aroma therapeutic power of smells, similar beneficial sensation as music genres. It conveys playlists that boost the mind. An opulent yet celebratory fragrance which starts with a hint of Disco and Hip-hop and then turns into more sensual accords of Latino and Rock. Punk and Heavy metal perform in the end to give power and adrenaline. Dominique Ropion played with spices, flowers, woods, amber and leather, to convey energy and zest.
The fragrance has top notes of Bergamot and Cardamom and when sprayed it is bright, it is fresh, it is zingy and it is warm. It is definitely a strong in your face kind of opening scent that you cannot help but love, I did as soon as I spritzed it. The middle notes of Cinnamon, Rose and Geranium take those strong opening notes and really brings them back down to earth as the freshness of the rose and geranium take control and allow the cinnamon to sit there in the background without taking over and dominating the fragrance.  As the scent settles the base notes of Patchouli, Amber, Myrrh, Sandalwood, Labdanum, musk and Oud which in this scent is Agarwood come together to bring about this incredible earthy scent that just grabs your attention and gives Live 'N' Loud its place within the Oudy Florential family.
