Britney Spears - Cosmic Radiance

I think you all possibly know how much I love Britney Spears. I've been a massive fan of hers for the past 13 years and I have all of her albums, DVDs, merchandise etc.. and she's all I seem to talk about. I've seen a lot of Cosmic Radiance sponsored posts popping up on my BlogLovin' timeline and I've loved reading them so much.. it's great seeing all of the Britney love! So even though this post isn't sponsored, I thought I'd do one aswell.
(Yes, that is a Britney toy toy bus in the background.. Like I said, I'm obsessed).
So yesterday was obviously the release date of Britney's brand new perfumes so I got up and rushed to Boots to buy it. I have all of her fragrances and I love them all. My favourite is possibly Radiance - the bottle is beautiful and the smell is wearable, buildable and sweet. When I got to Boots, I saw that I could get a free bag with any 50ml+ purchase so of course, I got the 50ml bottle. The bag isn't that nice but as a Britney fan, it's a collectors item for me. Anyway, the woman got me the perfume and I said 'yeah that's great. And she said 'do you not want to smell it?' To which I simply replied 'no, it's Britney.' Which is true.. I will buy anything of Britney's even if I don't like it. Luckily for me, Britney's never done anything that I didn't end up falling in love with.

This perfume is no different. It's a lot more grown up than her other fragrances. I'm not good with smells but I can definitely smell vanilla and citrus somewhere. And it smells beautiful. I'm in love! At first, I wasn't keen on the bottle.. the colours looked a bit too harsh but now it's sat on my desk looking gorgeous with my other Britney perfumes.. I can see how lovely it is. It definitely matches with the theme of being a 'Femme Fatale.'

Now, my favourite Britney moment is really hard to pin-point. Because I not only love her musically but also personally. My favourite musical moment is possibly this performance at the VMAs..
Yet my favourite personal moment is of course seeing her at the 2009 VMAs after her breakdown. Seeing Britney happy and back to herself made me burst into tears. I was so proud of her. And to this day, I continue to be proud of her. She's such a strong, beautiful woman and although in the UK her popularity hasn't been very good recently.. it's definitely getting back up there. Hopefully, the UK will fall back in love with her; just like the US has. She deserves the world.
Britney's new single, Criminal.
