Dance with Givenchy Perfume Review
Last year, Givenchy released Dance with Givenchy. The scent was meant to be playful and wearable by someone free-spirited… read: the younger demographic. The notes include those that are favourites of mine: jasmine, ylang ylang, musk, and woods, but unfortunately there are real fruity top notes that take too long to die down. Those include [...]
Givenchy Holiday 2011
Check out my beautiful photo of two lovelies from the Givenchy Holiday 2011 collection. The gold and navy compact is the Les Ombres de Lune ($64) and features a shimmery highlighter for the face, and an eyeshadow for the eyes. The compact is available in silver and gold, and the pigmentation is definitely there. The [...]
Givenchy Organza Neroli 2010
Givenchy has a twist on the flanker game: instead of just trying to reinvent its perfumes, it releases something called the Harvest Collection each year. The brand takes a look at specific harvests from the previous years and works them into existing perfumes. This year’s releases are: Very Irrésistible Givenchy Rose Damascena de Turquie (fruity [...]
Giselle’s Blonde Locks
This just in: even Giselle is showing some of her brown(ish) roots. As seen on Givenchy’s Spring/Summer 2012 runway. Totally blonde blonde hair or highlights? Not in style anymore. Bayolage or the Ombre look? Still a winner!
Givenchy Gelee d’Interdit
The Gelee d’Interdit is the newest lip release from Givenchy, the high-end brand that can be found at Sephora. Gelee d’Interdit offers moisturization and plumping in one product. All the shades are super sheer, glossy, and some are sparkly too. I find that the formula is, in fact, moisturizing but I wasn’t a fan of [...]
New! Givenchy Very Irresistible Intense
This March, Givenchy comes out with a flanker to their Very Irresistible perfume. There have been many flankers to this one, and I think it’s because it’s based on a rose note that those are ones that people love to see in different incarnations. Very Irresistible Intense offers a stronger, heavier, more mature and deep [...]
Perfume Review: Very Irresistible Givenchy
Because Givenchy launches an intense version of it’s Very Irresistible perfume this March (this is the one that features Liv Tyler in the ads), I decided to review the original version before I do the new one. Very Irresistible is primarily a rose scent – the notes are Centifolia Rose, Peony Rose, Fantasia Rose, Passion [...]
Givenchy Ange ou Demon Le Secret
If you’re stuck for what to give a good friend, here’s a suggestion: find out what their favourite scent is and then give the flanker. I thought of that as I looked at my own enormous perfume stash and still had the feeling that I was so bored of everything. And then Ange ou Demon [...]
Givenchy Play for Her Fragrance Review
This year, Givenchy launches Play for Her. Play for Him was launched last year, and has Justin Timberlake as the face of the fragrance. It’s clear that Givenchy is going after a younger audience with this scent. The good-looking musician whose music appeals to teenagers around the world is the face of a scent that [...]
The Color Blue – Fall 2010 Trend
If there’s one thing you need to add to your fall makeup bag, it’s got to be some smoky blue shadow. That’s the trend we’re seeing in this fall’s makeup, and though it probably reminds a lot of people of bad ’80′s makeup, blue can actually be pretty and flattering! The key is to use [...]
