I think every blogger has done one of these except for me. They are quite fun to read and always make me wonder hooow in the world do people keep their bags so organized. 

Anyway so let me tell you guys the one thing that i always carry in my bag. 

A deodrant! 

Yup! i can not tolerate being sweaty and for times when i have to be out for long hours, especially during the wonderful hot weather of Karachi, these little babies come real handy. 

Olor is a Norwegian brand that has a wide range of 24 hours active deodorants. that provide you ultimate freshness. When i got the chance to review their new variants of deodorants i was really happy and looking forward to try out the new fragrances since i have been using Olor's Adventurous Aqua for quite some time now.

Recently they have come up with three new scents.

1. Rosy Raspberry
2. Vibrant Violet
3. Glamorous Gold

So i rated them by their looks first, which i know is quite silly but i always pick the deodrant that looks appealing. Of course if it smells bad i wont use it just for the nice looking bottle =p So i was mostly likely to pick them as mentioned above.

So lets jump right in to review them and then ill tell you how i rate them based on their fragrance.

Rosy Raspberry:

This is a fruity smell made up of Raspberry and Vanilla. 

Being a fruity smell it is pretty sweet and i felt that it has very light notes of vanilla and more stronger of the Raspberry. The fragrance is actually quite peculiar and would have appealed to me if it was food hehe.

Vibrant Violet:

Next comes Vibrant Violet which is composed of Iris and Black Currant. 

Black Currant is my favorite flavor in food but when i first saw this i wasnt really sure how i would like the fragrance. To my surprise it was actually quite pleasant. It has really nice flowery notes and very subtle notes of the blackcurrant which makes up a great combo. 

Glamorous Gold:

Last but not the least, Glamorous Gold, a combination of Lilac and Amber. When i read the description i was sure i was going to like this. I prefer earthy fragrances over sweet ones and was super glad that Olor came up with this one. The delicate notes of lilac and the spicy notes of amber make this fragrance warm and musky.

Verdict:

All of these variants are quite strong smelling so you need not spray a load of it because it might just overwhelm you. They last for quite some time. At the end of the day when i was putting away my clothes, i could still faintly smell Glamorous Gold (the one i tested for the whole day).

I prefer to put on rich scents which is why when i was young i would put on a load of my father's perfume. So its no surprise when i say that Glamorous Gold is the best fragrance out of these three. (which also tells you that looks can be deceiving =p)The second i would say is Vibrant Violet, while Rosy Raspberry is just not my cup of tea. Although, if you like sweet, fruity fragrances then you would probably love it. 

I have never reviewed perfumes or deodorants before because i thought it would be difficult but hey this was actually kind of fun. Sooo you might just see more of such reviews on Ana's Journal. Hope this was helpful and would make it easier for you to pick your favorite scent. 

Until next time my Lovelies!! <3

Scentsation brought yet another brand to Pakistan. That's right girls, The Balm is now officially available in Pakistan and thanks to the wonderful ladies at Pakistan Beauty Society yours truly was invited to the event.

The crowd present was not surprising at all considering that The Balm is a much awaited brand.

Fortunately, I arrived early at the event and got a chance to take loads of pictures for you guys. The only problem was they hadn't set up the testers at the time and i couldn't swatch the products. 

Boohoo!

I know the main thing you guys want to know is the prices.

Honestly, initially I thought it would be really expensive since it is a brand that is high in demand in Pakistan by us beauty freaks but believe me the prices are quite reasonable.

The event was quite fun and us beauty bloggers got a chance to mingle and catch up with each other after ages! 

Aaaandd there was cake!! Yes! and omg it was sooo gorgeous. Being a baker myself i can tell whoever made the cake is a baking genius! Wonderfully crafted cosmetics of The Balm were placed on the cake and the bubble gum pink color was screaming cuteness just like The Balm's packaging.

A few celebrities were also present at the event. I got a chance to click a selfie with the beautiful Sarwat Gillani. She was so sweet and asked the photographer who wanted to take her picture to wait while she takes a selfie with me. 

The best part for me was our group selfie. Just look at all the Pakistani Beauty hehe. It was honestly a complete celebrity moment for us all. I felt like a star really! But now i also know what celebrities feel when they have to have that smile on their face for so long in front of hundreds of cameras.

So girls i am sure you all are excited and some of you might have already bought some products from The Balm's stall at Scentsation. I mean what more can you ask for, you can now easily check out the shades from the stall and get the one that suits you instead of being disappointed when you have already made the purchase. Happy as a bee, aren't you?!

You will find the whole range of The Balm cosmetics exclusively at Scentsation - Dolmen Mall Clifton and Tariq Rd. So get your hands on your favorites before they go out of stock. Thanks to Scentsation for bringing to us another one of our favorite makeup brand. Looking forward to more great stuff from them. And of course congratulations to Scentsation on the successful launch of The Balm cosmetics.

Until next time peeps!
