What's your favorite FRANGRANCE(s)?

2011-07-14T09:45:00.000-04:00

Hey Bloggers,

I just wanted to share my favorite frangrance(s) that I wear almost daily. I've been trying to put them into good use so it could go down. There's a good quantity of it.

First fragrance is: Sweet Pea Forever from Bath and Body Works (Limited Edition 2010)

Weight: 2.5 oz

Price: (I think) $29.50

My Description: Fresh and Fruity

(I'm not fond of the packaging, but it smells good. =D)

Second fragrance is: PINK in Pretty and Pure (Body Spray)

Weight: 8.5 oz

Price: $18

My Description: Fresh and Sweet (not too strong)

Overall, I like both equally and I am drawn to the "Freshness". These two seems to smell like the true frangrance when they are set on me. I know some fragrance can smell good when you're testing them, but onec they sit on your clothes or skin, it changes due to our body oils and/or clothes frabic.

What is your favorite fragrance? Please share!

New Perfume talk

2011-04-01T23:50:00.000-04:00

Hello everyone!
Sorry we've been super busy lately and haven't been blogging as often as usual, so I decided to slip in a blog post today. =)
I plan on filming a March favorites video very soon, so look out for that. =)

In a recent haul, I mentioned buying a new perfume.
This one to be more specific:

I've been wearing it quite often lately since it's a nice light scent that is appropriate for work.
I have to admit though, it's not my favorite scent ever and I'm not exactly crazy about it.
Yes, it's a nice scent but nothing to brag about.
Although this is my personal opinion, there are MANY women out there who swear by this scent.
IMO, it's a little bit too citrusy with a hint of woodsy-ness.

The perfume is described as:

An impish note of green apple emanates from the latest creation of the most impertinent of italian designers. Light blue, is not a lighter version despite its name. It sparkles with flowers and fruit notes that are an enticement to joie de vivre. The fragrance opens on a fresh and gourmet note of sicily cedar, granny smith apple and bluebells. The middle note is a bouquet of jasmine, bamboo and white rose. The end note reveals hints of cedarwood, amber and musk.

I much prefer crisply sweet yet fruity scents. And I don't mean cotton candy sweet but fruity sweet in a fresh way (much like Viva La Juicy & Clinique Happy).
So since I bought a large bottle of this stuff (3.4 fl oz) I'm going to try using this perfume up before I buy anything else.
Will I repurchase D&G Light Blue?
Most like, no.

Next on my lem list is Marc Jacob's Daisy... =)

b.right! Radiant Skincare by Benefit

2011-03-29T14:12:00.004-04:00

b.right!

Benefit launched its newest products recently and it was a new skincare line called b.right! Radiant Skincare.

"Let there be light...b.right! Radiant Skincare by Benefit gives skin a radiantly refreshed, lit from within look. This limited edition set of introductory size products is all you need for healthy-looking radiance." via Benefit Cosmetics

I for one go through many skin care products and are so unsure many times if I want to try out new products. I'm just afraid of spending tons of money on items that do not work or make matters worse for my face. However, if you are not ready to step and buy some full size skin care products from Benefit, Benefit has an Intro Kit that you can get for just $12. That's pretty inexpensive in my book, to try out some products before committing whole heartily.

Product Details

b. right! Radiant Skincare Intro Kit = $12
Set includes:
~ refined finish facial polish smoothest surface facial exfoliator 8.9 g Net wt. 0.3 oz.
~ total moisture facial cream hydra-concentrated facial cream 3.0 g Net wt. 0.1 oz.
~ triple performance facial emulsion SPF 15 PA++ sheer oil-free facial lotion SPF 15 PA ++ with tri-radiance complex 8.9 mL / 0.3 US fl. oz

Any Skincare Junkies trying this out yet?

Lorac - 3d Liquid Lustre

2011-03-26T21:57:00.000-04:00

via loraccosmetics.com

Who likes a little or lots of Sparkle and Shine?

New at Lorac, is a 3d Liquid Lustre eyeshadow/cheek top coat to add that very much needed sparkle and shine. The shine is all about 3 dimensional instead of the normal blah color that we always get. Apply it alone or over eyeshadow or blush on cheeks.

How to use:

"Use with your favorite LORAC eye makeup palettes or with some of LORAC’s best eye shadows! Simply shake bottle and squeeze a small amount on the back of your hand. Gently pat onto eye with fingertips. Apply more for a more dramatic eye makeup look."

Buy for $16 online at Lorac Cosmetics
