I recently got my hands on a bottle of Giorgio Armani Code Pour Femme Eau de Parfum. I have been using this amazing perfume for weeks now and I love it. This is not my first time of using this fragrance. I have used it quite a few times in the last couple of years. It is one of my favourite perfumes ever! I like when a perfume smells great and when it is long lasting, and this Armani Code perfume is all that and more.

My Final Thoughts

I have used Giorgio Armani Code many times and I know I will be using the perfume again and again. It is such a lovely fragrance, just like the other Giorgio Armani perfumes I have tried. It does come with a slightly heavy price tag with prices starting from £57.45 for a 30ml, but it is worth every penny in my eyes.

 

What do you think of this fragrance? Have you tried this or any other Giorgio Armani perfume before? Please sound off in the comments section, let’s chat.

 

Thanks for stopping by. Have a lovely day.

Product Review – Motif

*PR sample.

I am forever taking pictures thanks to my work and the kiddies. They love photos and we tend to take quite a bit. I take photos of the kids on my iPhone almost everyday. It is my way of preserving our memories and it is fun to look back to see how far we have come. Which is why I was super thrilled when the guys at Motif App  got in touch. For those who have never heard of this App, it offers people a quick way to produce personalised and professional Photo Books, Calendars and Cards. It only just launched in the UK, and I got the lovely opportunity to try it out for myself some weeks ago.

Motif App

I got my hands on two Photo Books thanks to Motif. It was so easy to createthe Photo Books myself using the app. I downloaded the app from the App Store on my MacBook Pro. The whole creation process was pretty straightforward. I just followed the instructions on the App and selected the photos I wanted in the Photo Books from my MacBook Pro. It took me around 30 minutes from start to finish, and I got the Photo Books in the post within a week!

It is amazing how far technology has come. Back in the day, we had to go into a store to get Photo Books or even regular photographs printed professionally, but we don’t have to anymore. We can create these and more online thanks to great Apps like Motif.

Motif is a great App to create one place for your treasured moments with family and friends. I have used the app to capture my family and how much the twins have grown. These special moments make meaningful gifts to loved ones. I gifted the second Photo Book to Mum, and she loves it.

From cards to calendars, Motif delivers the finest quality products using sustainably sourced and environmentally friendly materials. The Photo Books are made from great quality material and they look like they would last a lifetime.

My Final Thoughts

Motif has made it very easy to preserve memories and store them in stylish Photo Books. The Kiddies and I were looking at the photos the other day, and it was lovely experience. I am so in love with our Motif Photo Book. It is a treasure I will be keeping forever and I will be ordering more products from the brand. You can head over to Motif to create your own Phone Books, Calendars and Cards. The process is dead easy and the results are so beautiful.

 

What do you think of our Photo Book? Do you take pictures regularly?

The Story Behind the Brand

Balmonds was created by a Natalie Balmonds – mother in search of a cream that would help her daughter’s very dry and itchy skin. Natalie had tried many different creams prescribed by doctors and dermatologists, but they stung and irritated her even more. This led to her experimenting with cooking traditional ointments and salves in her kitchen. Natalie used combinations of herbs and oils to create the skincare that would work just right for daughter’s skin, and today we have Balmonds.

 

The Balmonds Range

I got the following Balmonds Skincare Products –

 

Daily Moisturing Cream

Intensive Hand Cream

Skin Salvation

Intensive Facial Oil

Baby Balm

  2. I love the compact packaging of the products. They are easy to store and take away on a trip. The Intensive Facial Oil comes with
  3. The Intensive Facial Oil is great on my face. I love the texture of this gentle conditioning oil. It leaves my skin supple and smooth. I use it as a daily overnight treatment and I love how my facial skin is looking.
  4. The Skin Salvation intensely moisturises the skin. It is 100% natural and it keeps the skin soft, smooth and well hydrated. It can be used to sooth a variety of skin conditions, from eczema and psoriasis, to dermatitis and rosacea.
  5. I really like the Baby Balm with hemp and lavender. It is great for my children’s skin. It can also be used as a general-purpose family ointment, which is amazing. I love having multi-purpose skincare products at home.
  6. The Daily Moisturising Cream and Intensive Hand Cream are both easily absorbed cream. I love the texture of the creams a lot. They suit my skin so well.
