This flirty scent features notes of Vanilla, Musk, Tonka Bean, Apple, Mongolia Blossom, Cassis Sorbet, Italian Mandarin, Magnolia Blossom, and Orange Flower.

This palette actually is a tiered compact with four powder eyeshadows and four glosses. The collection has two palettes to choose from: Super Fun and Happy Fun. Both palettes include feminine colors that are easy to mix and blend in.
