If you want a spicy, perfect for cold Fall days/Winter-type shower gel, than Glögg is for you! OMG I REALLY love it!!! It reminds me of a hot mug of apple cider with a cinnamon stick… Watching t.v., a soft throw blanket over me, with a warm mug of apple cider =)… How can I …
Lush Review: Sweetie Pie Shower Jelly
I visited a Lush boutique in Manhattan recently (the one near East 14th. Street/Union Square Park) and remembered that I really wanted to try one of their candy sweet shower jellies (particularly because I’ve always feared it melting while being shipped and so I’ve never ordered them online). I also heard through the grape vine …
Lush Review: Tuca Tuca Massage Bar
I generally like this new massage bar though it isn’t my top most favorite scent only because I prefer true candy scents. Tuca Tuca reminds me of candied flowers- the ones you would see adorning a beautiful tiered cake or simply atop a gourmet cupcake. This pretty scent with its moisturizing qualities has lingered on …
Beginner’s Choice: NYX Cosmetics
If you are just starting out in makeup, I highly recommend NYX palettes and products for their awesome color pay-off and prices which won’t hurt your wallet. My favorite palettes are The Makeup Artist Box S106, The Bronze Goddess, and Winter in Moscow (great for smokey eye looks). Please check out NYX’s website for more …
Lush Review: Chox Away Soap
I just started using Lush’s Chox Away soap and love it’s caramelly scent. Like all other Lush products, it’s so moisturizing! Unfortunately I just checked Lush’s website and found that it may be discontinued. That’s too bad =(… You may still be able to find this soap on eBay, Makeup Alley, or elsewhere? As an …
Lush Review: Pop in the Bath Cocktail
I’ve been staring at my Lush goodies for weeks now wondering when there would be some free time for a bath cocktail. At the end of the day, there’s always something to do- a task of the day that wasn’t quite finished… Guilt of not getting to certain chores that I had set off to …
Nail Polish Storage Solutions
For those of you with large nail polish collections, the solutions below may be right for you. It’s a shame that I haven’t seen more companies making train cases for nail polishes available to the public like the black and silver damask pictured below by OPI. I do like the acrylic stands by OPI a …
Cosmetic/Vanity Storage Solutions
There are two new sources I’d like to share on this topic. Yes, some more wonderful ideas I’ve collected from You Tube. Storables and Sally Beauty. I personally own the large acrylic organizer and love it (purchased it from The Container Store). The acrylic is super thick and sturdy. It will look great on any …
A True Luxury Gift: Hammam Collection by Red Flower
Several years ago I ventured into Soho’s Bloomingdales for a little retail therapy and picked up the Hamman Bath Set and Lemon Coffee- Blossom Olive Stone Scrub as early Christmas presents from moi to moi. I still believe the Lemon Coffee scrub was the best I’ve ever used. It truly smelled of the most aromatic …
Rouge Bunny Rouge
I’ve been really interested in this cosmetics brand ever since my trip to Italy and Germany. They have been described as a fusion of whimsical and gothic (reminding me of Urban Decay, Too Faced, and Hard Candy). I wish I had bought even one thing to try from RBR but at the time, I was …
