Revamp Your Spring Style with Caress

Disclosure: Post sponsored by Mirum Shopper but all opinions are my own. Spring is here and it’s time to lighten up! Away with the heavy fragrances and time to show your love for the lighter, airy scents to match your wardrobes. I have different styles I wear throughout the year, and now that Spring is in full swing in California – I have traded in the darker tops for lighter pinks and beige tones. Even my hair gets an overhaul with sunkissed highlights! Why not find a fragrance to match the lighter feel? The second I tried the Caress Botanical Body Sprays – I fell in love and cleared my vanity of fragrances aside from these. They come in the following scents: Mediterranean Lotus, Pink Peony and Sweet Violet. You can wear them on their own, or mix and match for more possibilities! My favorite combo? Pink Peony and Sweet…

Vapid Lacquer Vapibirthday Bath & Body

Press Sample We’re continuing on with the Vapibirthday Celebration! Last night I showed the Cosmos & Cosmos: Dirty Edition collections, and today I have the Vapid Lacquer Vapibirthday Bath & Body products! There are more products to go with these, but this is a large chunk of it. There will also be Nail Sauces and Wax Melts available in these scents, as well as other sizes of body creams and body scrubs. I was sent a rather nice assortment to share in all of the scents for this release. I will be describing the scents as I interpret them. I do not have a scent cheat sheet to refer to, which is rather nice so I can give my personal description without hearing much of what they really are. We all have a difference sense of smell, some more perceptive than others, so please keep in mind that your perception might…

My Top 3 Marc Jacobs Fragrances

Press Sample I’m a fragrance junkie. My entire dresser is full of various bottles of fragrances ranging from candy sweet scents to bold fruity to musky flowers. I love em all. One of my favorite brands for fragrance though? Marc Jacobs. Hands Down. I decided to do a fun little post on my top 3 Marc Jacobs fragrances! When I first started purchasing Marc Jacobs fragrances, I was drawn into the bottles. The lids are so fun and colorful! From the beautiful rose lids of the Oh Lola! line to the fun bees and ladybugs of Honey and Dot… and then there’s the Daisy line with – you guessed it! Daisy’s on the lids! The bottles are bright, eye catching and stunning to display. I own almost all of them, but I narrowed down my top 3 just for you! When Fragrancenet.com contacted me to do a review, I selected…

Scentbird Perfume Monthly Subscription

Press Sample Purchased By Me Affiliate Link By now we all know how much I love my monthly subscriptions. I currently have 4 for myself, my son has 2 (both gifts from me, I renew his every subs every Christmas and Birthday) and my boyfriend has 2. We get a lot of boxes delivered here monthly. While theirs are primarily game related, mine are all beauty related. One of my favorites though? Scentbird Perfume Monthly Subscription! I’ve been a subscriber of Scentbird now for 22 months (I am actually queued up to receive Lalique Fleur de Cristal this month!) and I love being able to try fragrances that I wouldn’t generally buy for myself due to price, or just not being sure how much I’ll love it. Of the 21 perfumes I’ve already received as a member of the subscription, 16 I ended up loving and 5 I gave to friends because…

Alter Ego Nail Enamels EgoMANia Men’s Fragrance Review

Press Sample Nick is the man behind my blog. He is the one in the background making sure everything runs smoothly, everything is up to date and if there is a blip – he will get up at 2am to fix it (and has before so I know this for a fact). From time to time he also reviews men’s items on my blog as well, and today is one of those days. Alter Ego Body Care Products sent him 3 fragrances from their new EgoMANia line. You can also check out the review on Nick’s blog, Separate Opinion. Now, onto his review: Today I am reviewing a new men’s scent line from Alter Ego Enamels called egoMANia. I received 3 new scents to try: Sharp Dressed Man, Woodworker, and Magic Man. I’m going to start off with the packaging and bottles of the Alter Ego Enamel egoMANia scents. All…
