Okay, the perfume collection isn't really that awesome, but I think the photo of it is! I took the photo for a perfume contest. I didn't make the finals =( I'm actually quite sad about that.

I've won some giveaways during the month of April, and I've received a few of the prizes. I won bareMinerals Purely Nourishing Moisturizer and bareMinerals Deep Cleansing Foam from Blaq Vixen Beauty. I won bareMinerals Pure Transformation Night Treatment from Tiaras & Tantrums. I won NeoCell Resveratrol Antioxidant Capsules from Leslie Loves Veggies. I won It's a 10 Miracle Leave-In Product

A while back, I won a set of My Lip Stuff lip balms through a Sugar Pop Ribbons giveaway. Well, I figured it was about time I share how much I love these balms! My Lip Stuff Lip Balms Review ♥ I received six flavors: Blackberry, Dulce de Leche, Chocolate Raspberry, Caramel Apple, Maple Cream, and Carrot Cake. So far I've only gone through the Maple Cream and Carrot Cake balms, and they were

My hands aren't very steady, and I have almost no experience with applying makeup. But, I am interested in tightlining my eyes. And an eyeliner marker seems like the best way to do that. So, I picked up a product that got good reviews on Makeup Alley… The Wet n Wild MegaEyes Defining Marker. It was only $3.99. I've tried ELF's Eyeliner Pen, and it was completely dried up when I opened it. I

I recently noticed that my heels had become rather rough. I went to Walmart with the intention of getting a pumice stone, but then I saw this. The Trim Ergo Foot Paddle. It's much nicer to look at than a pumice stone, with its frosted contoured handle and pink ceramic surfaces. The paddle has a coarse surface for calluses and a fine surface for smoothing rough skin. The surfaces sparkle a

Here's what I've bought recently. I needed a pumice stone, but I saw this at Walmart and liked it more: the Trim Ergo Foot Paddle. It's pretty! The Argan Magic products are getting great reviews, so I went to a nearby CVS and picked up a bottle of the Argan Magic Intensive Hair Oil. I saw the Garnier Fructis Anti-Dandruff Intense Cleanse Shampoo and wanted to try it out. It has little

I recently received an update from Burt's Bees: Imagine a world without landfills. It’s a beautiful dream and we hope to help make it a reality. We’ve successfully eliminated landfill waste from our facilities as of this Earth month (April 2010). There is a lovely empty space where our dumpster used to sit.

While I was at Walmart yesterday, I looked around the clothing area for those Faded Glory shirts that ads had been saying were lowered from $5 to $4. I picked one up, though I was really disappointed to see that they don't make any of their stuff in XS. Can you see how loose the shirt is on me? It'll be a pain when I wear it, I'm sure, because it'll travel and I'll be constantly readjusting

According to this About.com Drinking Water article, I take my weight in pounds, divide it by two, and that's the number of ounces of water per day that I need to drink. I weigh around 106 pounds, so that's 53 ounces of water. I need to drink about seven cups of water a day. ... Yeah, I don't drink anywhere near that amount. I need to really try to do that.

I was surprised this wasn't in the same Allure Magazine article that mentioned Dove Body Wash with NutriumMoisture. To me it seems like this is a sister product (in terms of what they claim to do). I would've liked to read Allure's beauty breakthrough writeup of Stratys-3™. I'd been trying out Dove Sensitive Skin Nourishing Body Wash with NutriumMoisture, and it seems like Vaseline Sheer

This is just a quick first impression of Eucerin Daily Skin Balance Skin-Fortifying Body Lotion. First off, it reminds me (superficially) of Skin MD Natural Shielding Lotion. Both lotions' bottles have white bodies with red tops. Skin MD Natural Shielding Lotion forms a protective barrier on the skin and keeps out irritants and chemicals. Similarly, Eucerin Daily Skin Balance Skin-Fortifying

This stuff is supposed to be da bomb. I've been using it for a couple months or so... and I'm not seeing it. A lot of people also love Dove Beauty Bar (including my SO).

Ever since I first saw Giovanni Colorflage pop up in stores—which seems like a lifetime ago, now—I wanted to try it. I love haircare products geared towards specific hair colors. But I couldn't try it, because only the shampoos were on the shelves. A lot of time has passed and nothing's changed. Every store I go to that stocks Giovanni Colorflage only stocks the shampoos. I have never seen the

I returned the Neutrogena Redness-Soothing Cream Cleanser. One reason I thought Neutrogena Redness-Soothing Cream Cleanser would work for me is because I use Neutrogena Oil-Free Acne Stress Control Power-Clear Scrub and love it. I use it in the morning in the shower, and it seems to do a good job of cleaning and exfoliating my skin. It has a light, soothing fragrance and it only irritates my skin

I bought Neutrogena Redness-Soothing Cream Cleanser with high hopes. I've been using it for about three days (at night only), and when I use it my face itches. I don't remember ever having this problem with any other products. I really wanted this cleanser to work, but I've decided not to push my luck and risk some awful allergic reaction.

I was shopping at Kroger today and noticed some new products in eye-catching packaging. They had some great ingredients in them.
