Acorelle Perfumes by My Pure

We here at The Amazing Blog love wearing an elegant fragrance regularly to help us smell good and leave a great impression on everyone we see throughout the day. Just like a manicure is a wonderful finishing touch to an outfit, fragrance does the same. Since we love fragrance and organic products, we’ve been loving the Acorelle collection perfumes from My Pure.

The French range Acorelle fragrances are all made with natural ingredients and are certified organic. They’re even said to make you feel good, so the scents act as a healthy mood booster, as the natural fragrance molecules used in the products are said to enhance your mood and feelings of well-being.

The scents in the collection include: Jasmine Allure, Intense Cherry, Brilliant Pepper, Vanilla Gardenia, White Orchid and Essence of Rose. Here at Amazing PR, we’ve decided our favourite scent is Intense Cherry. It’s a rich, robust floral fragrance that makes a statement without being too strong. We still love all of the scents in the collection, since other scents like White Orchid are better suited for an office environment.

If you’re stuck in a scent rut or just looking to try something new, we definitely recommend these fragrances to help you smell as great as you look!

Head here to get your own bottle of Acorelle fragrance for only £15 per bottle. You can also purchase rollerball fragrances or gift sets if you’re hoping to share the gift of fragrance with a loved one.

Majique - Nail Buddy

We here at The Amazing Blog love painting our nails and having fun with new colours. A great manicure is the perfect finishing touch to a stylish outfit and keeps you looking your best. Since sometimes a DIY manicure can lead to spills and messes, we love the Nail Buddy from Majique because it keeps our nail polish bottle safe and steady as we work our manicure magic.

With no spills and no messes to worry about, the Nail Buddy makes painting your nails a really enjoyable experience. It’s great for use at home or on-the-go, since it’s small and portable. We're guilty of painting our nails in bed, and as a result, have been victim to a spillage or two over the years. Thankfully, this convenient little base is the perfect way to keep your sheets clean and your manicure looking perfect. We really like that the Nail Buddy fits snugly between our legs, so that you don't need to have a flat surface to rest it on, and it will fit nail varnish of any shape or size. And with a range of colours to choose from, we were spoiled for choice.

To take all the hassle out of the perfect paint job, head to the Majique website and get your own nail buddy for £7.99.

Label.M - Brunette Texturising Volume Spray

Here at The Amazing Blog, we're constantly looking for ways to give our hair that 'done' look with minimal effort. Recently, we got our hands on the Brunette Texturising Volume Spray from Label.M professional hair care, and have finally found the 'get up and go' product that we've always craved.

As the official haircare sponsor of London Fashion Week 2015, we already knew we were on to a great product. After all, if it's good enough for the catwalk, who are we to say no. The brunette-friendly spray was added to the collection after the brand's original Texturising Volume Spray was a roaring success. Launched last year, it became a popular product so quickly that the founders decided to develop a brunette-specific version to give a lift to darker roots.

Utilising the same concept as a dry shampoo, the spray is the perfect way to give brunette barnets a bit of oomph. I simply sprayed through my roots, and after a bit of finger work, I found that I had the perfect tousled style with a dose of extra volume in no time at all. It also has the same hold as a hairspray, so you don’t have to worry about your hair flying everywhere in the unpredictable London wind. A hairspray/dry shampoo hybrid could potentially have devastating effects on the texture of your hair, but I'm pleased to report that my tresses were neither crispy nor powdery after use. It's a great product for giving you hair and mood a necessary boost when you're feeling a bit deflated.

Each spray costs £12.95, so stock up on the backstage favourite here and say a fond farewell bad hair days.

Friday Favourites: Make-Up We Love

We here at The Amazing Blog are true beauty junkies. Whether we’re obsessing over a new lipstick or testing out a bold eye shadow, we just can’t get enough.

Out of all the cosmetics to choose from, it’s hard to know what to buy and which products are truly worthy of our praise. Thankfully, today’s post contains four of our favourites, so you’ll know they’ve passed our product quality test.

Wish you had eyebrows like Cara Delevingne or Lily Collins? We are totally into the bold brow trend, which is why we have started using Threads Beauty’s ‘Crayon De Sourcil’ to make our thick eyebrow dreams come true.

Threads & Beauty’s ‘Crayon De Sourcil’ is a semi-permanent mineral brow pencil that lines, defines and fills in the brow instantly. Made with carnauba Wax, bees wax, cocoa butter, shea butter and manganese violet, this richly pigmented pencil enhances the appearance of the brows by boosting their fullness and boldness and protects the layer of skin around the brows. The pencil tip mimics the appearance of tiny hairs, evenly distributing and smoothing brow hairs while providing natural looking shape and contour.

If you want model-inspired brows, you can purchase the ‘Crayon De Sourcil’ for £15.00 here and choose between black, brown and coffee shades. You can also purchase them at the Harvey Nichols in Knightsbridge.

A glowing complexion doesn’t always come naturally, so for the days when we want a little something extra, we reach for the Glow Up powder from Ellis Faas. It comes in three shades and plays with the light around you for an effortless glow. Since the powder contains vitamin E, you’ll be protected from the outside environment, and it’s free of parabens and oils so it won’t weigh your skin down.

For a soft shimmer, dust the powder onto the spots where light hits your face first: the bridge of your nose, your upper cheekbones, your Cupid’s bow and your collarbone. This will emphasis strong bone structure, bringing forth a young and vibrant appearance.

To get your own Glow Up powder, head to the Ellis Faas website here and get the powder and a compact holder for £22.

We always love a fabulous lip product, whether we’re heading to the office or out with our friends on a weekend. Since red-toned shades are our signature, we loved the Dissolved in Dreams lipstick from Rouge Bunny Rouge. It’s the perfect shade combining the best parts of red and coral lipsticks.

The finish of this lipstick was unlike any other we have tried. It’s wasn’t matte or sheen, but rather gave us a dewy, classic finish. It stays comfortable and soft all day long, and won’t dry out your lips like other lipstick finishes might. Its vitamin E formula nourishes and protects, while filling in fine lines and ultimately making sure your lips look their best. Even though the shadows provides shimmer, they don't feel rough or gritty like some other shimmer lipsticks might.

Try out this lip colour for yourself by heading to the Rouge Bunny Rouge website here and picking it up for £24.

For the times when we’d rather focus on creating a fun eye shadow look rather than concentrating on a statement lipstick, we reach for the Mineral Eye Shadow Quads from Mary Kay. With these palettes, you don’t need to figure out which shades will work well with one another, since they’re already chosen for you.

The shadows combine matte and shimmer shades that allow you to add variety to your look as you choose. You can use all of the colours or just one, giving you an infinite amount of creativity. The colours are long-lasting and glided onto our eyelids so smoothly without any irritation. Plus, the shades work with every skin tone and eye colour, so everyone in the office could try out the shades and they looked great on all of us.

Head here to get your favourite eye shadow quad for only £10.

Skin Chemists Bee Venom

The harsh "sting" of realising that your skin may be ageing is quite painful, but the ladies here at The Amazing Blog know just how to prevent signs of ageing through the use of high-quality skincare products. The bee venom serum from Skin Chemists doesn’t involve getting stung by a bee, but rather combines the skin-loving powers of Manuka honey and bee venom into a unique skincare experience.

In Egypt, Greece and millennium China, beehive-based treatments have been greatly idolized for their repairing, revitalizing and anti-inflammatory benefits. Treatments that utilize beehive ingredients, such as honey, propolis, royal yellow and venom, are known as apitherapy products. With the rise of modern medicine, apitherapy practices were seen less often, so Skin Chemists brought this ancient and effective practice back to life in 2013 with their line of natural products.

The key ingredients in this serum work together to brighten your complexion and reduce the signs of ageing, since the Manuka honey hydrates, repairs and soothes skin. Additionally, the serum restores the epidermis, as the bee venom improves blood circulation, which stimulates the regeneration of the epidermis. In turn, your skin will feel firmer, smoother and plumper after just one use. 

Experience all the buzz about this product yourself when you purchase it here for £135.
