Fragrant Friday - Nuxe Prodigieux Le Parfum

Always wished you could get the wonderful scent of your Nuxe Huile Prodigieux in a perfume? Well now you can with: 

Nuxe Prodigieux Le Parfum - 50ml EDP - $70 - a feminine blend of sunshine and warm sand with top notes of orange blossom, bergamot, mandarin orange and orange; heart notes of magnolia, rose and gardenia; and base notes of vanilla, coconut milk and pebbles.

Great news, it smells exactly the same as the dry oil, maybe even better because it doesn't have that underlying "oily" smell - it's one of those nostalgic scents that remind me of summer so perfect timing!

Spring is the perfect time to show off the beauty of your skin - now made easy thanks to the Chanel Les Beiges Collection - with a few easy products: the complexion becomes sheer, revealing the texture of the skin; natural colours blush atop cheekbones and lips to bring out radiance and heighten a natural healthy glow, while eyes are barely swept with a tinted breeze.
