I have been trying out Scent & Co this week, this is a fragrance subscription service that allows you to try out a different fragrance each month, this is a great way to try out new scents and see which ones work best for you. Without having to buy a full sized bottle

The packaging is great it comes in a sleek looking tube that is perfect for putting in your handbag

Including this little velvet pouch which keeps the bottle protected

Each month you can replace the bottle which easily fits in side. You can see which fragrance you have in there by looking at the side of the bottle. i went for Tom Ford's Tobacco Vanille for my first fragrance choice. I have liked the smell of Tom Fords fragrances although I have never actually got round to purchasing one. This was a great way for me to try it out.

I do like the fragrance it lasts really well. its definitely an unusual scent and not something that I would normally go for. But i do really like it. It has been in my handbag all week and is just great for on the go top ups.

You can find more info from there website HERE, you can also get 15% off your first order with the code INSTA15

I have heard mixed reviews about cluster eyelashes, so I have been meaning to have a go myself. I have stuck with the Ardell glue as this is one of the brands that I prefer for strip lashes. I have tried the Ardell cluster lashes before and have been impressed. I actually found these lashes on Ali Express and for price I have been very impressed! The brand is Nesura. They have various styles and lengths available.

I am not quite brave enough to purchase the glue from there I would rather stick to a brand that I know. But I am more than happy with the lashes themselves. I live that I can customise the look as they are individual. They definitely take longer to apply but I actually find the process a lot easier and there are no bands that keep popping up, which seems to be the problem I have with strip lashes. These are a mix of 8 - 10 cm lashes, starting with the shortest at the inner corner and working out.

This was the glue that I used it seems to do the job and doesn't irritate my eyes at all

Here are the lashes that I used. I had a look around trying to fins some without a knot at the base as this was causing me a problem when I was trying to attach them in the past. I think that it makes it really noticeable without eyeliner. 

I have actually ordered some more but they are smaller clumps they have 6 strands per piece rather than the 10 on these I am hoping that this will give me a more natural look and mean that they are more flexible as to where I apply them along the lash line.

They sent me a selection of their products to try, some where what I would describe as skincare there was the Rose Hip Oil Blotting Paper and Skincare Blotting Paper Vitamins C & E, these are blotting papers that are infused with rose hip oil and the second with added Vitamins C and E all of which are great for your skin!

They also sent a Bamboo Charcoal Blotting Paper, which to is great for blemish prone skin

The next few blotting papers are makeup ones, the conveniently contains makeup actually on the paper itself, which I found to be really handy! The first 2 are blush papers: Blush Blotting Paper shade Montecito and Shade Sunset BLVD these leave a lovely flushed look to your face.

Next there was a Foundation Blotting Paper Shade Golden Glow and a Highlighter Blotting Paper Shade Crystal Cove these were also great for little on the go touch ups or added that little glow when needed!
