SISLEY BLACK ROSE CREAM MASK {REVIEW}

Finally I got to try A Sisley skincare product, albeit only in a 

sample size, but it wasn't just any sample it was a sample of their iconic

 Black Rose Cream Mask I managed to get a couple of applications

out of the sachet, however one application was enough for me to

experience the all the skin hype that has surrounded this super

luxe skincare face mask...

Sisley Paris

is an independent family owned French luxury cosmetic, skin care, 

hair care, and perfume company, whose products based on active 

ingredients derived from plants for different skin types and different uses:

 moisturizing, anti-aging, sun care

 and makeup.

Started in 1976 Sisley’s products are now sold in department stores, 

pharmacies, spas and beauty salons.

 In recent years Sisley has also opened its own stores around the world.

Sisley's headquarters is in Paris. The company designs and manufactures its products in France. 

France is the company's biggest market, followed by China.

Black Rose Cream Mask

forms part of the Black Rose Skincare Collection thats been

formulated to offer luxurious textures and be super effective in

 offering the skin "instant youth" and who doesn't want that?

Rich in active anti-ageing ingredients: 

Black Rose

Padina pavonica

and 

Alkekengi calyx extracts

 

These key ingredients immediately get to work on signs of fatigue

 and leaves the skin looking youthful and energized.

It brings together three actions to restore a luminous complexion 

and redensified skin in just 10 to 15 minutes:

- a smoothing and plumping action,

- a revitalising action,

- a softening and hydrating action.

Suitable for all skin types.

Apply 2 or 3 times a week in a thick layer on the face and neck, 

carefully avoiding the area around the eye. 

Allow to remain on the skin for 10 to 15 minutes, 

then wipe away the excess.

This deliciously scented with rose, soft, creamy textured mask creates

 a moment of relaxation and pleasure that felt wonderful on my skin.

Immediately hydrated and plumped, my skin also felt smoother, incredibly

soft, less fatigued and more radiant.

Of all the products to try 1st from Sisley, this was the ONE and it certainly

 didn't disappoint in any way...

SISLEY IZIA LA NUIT EDP {REVIEW}

This is a 1st for me, my first review of a product from the

luxury french brand SISLEY.

The SISLEY Black Rose Cream Mask will be my 2nd and my review will 

be posted in a week or so.

SISLEY have a surprising amount of fragrances on offer and the only

one that I know of is their popular Eau de Soir and that's due

to it being the signature fragrance of my UK BFF and this distinct

floral fragrance reminds me of her and is a perfect match for

her, sadly it wasn't for me...

Izia La Nuit 

is a new encounter that was launched in 2021,

 an ode to the night that follows on from 

Izia 

that has been around since 2007

Izia La Nuit 

Is a fragrance for a daring, elegant woman looking for an olfactory signature

 that reveals her slightly but not completely. 

An extraordinary, rare and sophisticated perfume. 

This nocturnal, opulent and deep fragrance is like an encounter that awakens

 the unconscious and stimulates the senses.

 A dizzying array of sensual, full, radiant notes emerges, developing and 

evolving over time like a metaphor for the countless facets of love. 

The sculptural bottle created by artist Bronislaw Krzysztof is adorned with a mysterious, glossy lacquer. Its deep black shade contrasts with the 

delicate golden film that reflects the luminous juice.

Top notes:

 Fresh and vibrant (Blackcurrant, Mandarin, Cardamom) 

Middle notes: 

Floral and luminous (d’Ornano Rose, Freesia, Magnolia) 

Base notes: Woody and sensual (Ambrox, Patchouli, Vanilla)

As with all fragrances the advertising/packaging used are great indicators,

 as to what lies within the bottle.

As I always say "fragrance is a very personal choice" and I

already had my doubts as to whether I would like this fragrance and

you guessed it, this floral-oriental was not to my liking.

Just as the box and the bottle suggests

I found it to be quite intense, deep, sensual and long lasting and that's 

exactly what the perfumer wanted to achieve.

This award winning fragrance is quite complex and despite loving several 

of the individual elements like Rose/Freesia/Blackcurrant/Vanilla

it wasn't enough to win me over.

SUNDAY SAMPLE

 I have a back story as to how I obtained these 2 samples from the 

French Super Luxe brand 

Sisley

It was many months ago that I applied online to have a couple of

free samples posted to my "Kiddiewinks" UK address and it was only 

recently that they, via him, made it to my hands here in South Africa.

This method of sampling is often used in the UK and it's how I

discovered the Giorgio Armani Luminous Silk foundation, which has led

me to purchase 2 now, as it's become one of my favourite

 high-end foundations.

I also have recommended to a couple of readers and like me they

fell in love, so sample marketing, if executed correctly really works.

So this coming week I will try out both of these samples and revert back 

with my thoughts.

 Black Rose Cream Mask

I have heard wonderful things about this "Instant Youth" face mask

and cannot wait to try it and this was the reason I submitted

my sample request.

Izia la Nuit

is one of the many fragrance offerings that Sisley have and

it was an extra sample that arrived and I didn't complain,

as its perfect for a Sunday Sample post.
