So my sister and I recently tagged along on my brother and his girlfriend's romantic getaway (sorry guys) to Bruges.
I was super excited about getting out of London and obviously couldn't wait to wrap my lips around some proper Belgian chocolate, but then I realised something even more exciting:
In order to get from England to Belgium, we'd have to drive through Calais. Calais is in France. What else is in France? Sephora is in France!
I'm slightly ashamed to admit that I was a touch more excited about popping in to Sephora on the way to Bruges than I was about...err...Bruges.
The store we visited was tiny - not exactly the image of Sephora I had conjured up in my mind, but it was a Sephora all the same, and having never visited one before, my heart still did a little flip when I walked through the doors.
Being on a bit of a tight time schedule, I didn't have time to play with everything in there, so I avoided the hypnotic gaze of Dior, Yves Saint Laurent and Clarins, and made a bee line for the products I can't get my mitts on in the uk - Sephora's own line of body and bath products.

In keeping true to my tastes, I was immediately drawn to the Chocolate Praline and Creme Brulee ranges at Sephora.

So my maiden voyage to Sephora may have been fleeting, but the place has definitely gained a fan as far as I'm concerned! If you're venturing to a Sephora soon, I really recommend snapping up one of the body lotions - I apply mine in the morning after my shower and the scent lasts all day, and makes my clothes smell stupidly sweet too. If you don't fancy smelling like cadburys or a French patisserie, there are plenty of fruity and floral scents in the Sephora collection too!
Thanks for reading as always :)
Sweet Dreams!

I'm a sucker for sweet foodie scents too. Also love philosophy's line of dessert scented products. You got yourself a deal there. Chocolate praline and creme brulee lotions sound scrumptious.
ReplyDeleteI'm a massive Philosophy fan - just about to run out of Eggnog body wash :(
