• Guerlain Champs-Elysees EDT Fragrance Review

  Date: 2011.04.26 | Category: fragrance | Response: 20

  

  Guerlain Champs-Elysees EDT  reminds me of a champagne cocktail sipped during an outdoor brunch. And depending on who you talk to, you may only be able to wear this outdoors! Champs-Elysees has a rep for being a loud fragrance. Maybe this is why I like this fruity-floral

  I think of Guerlain Champs-Elysées as being like a mimosa version of YSL Paris. Both perfumes are “power” floral perfumes. They are floral, feminine, and yes, a little loud depending on who you ask. I… Continue reading | 20 Comments

• Parfums des Beaux Arts by DSH Epices d’Hiver Parfum Review

We are known for our massive amounts of gloom and rain. For a closet goth and a mushroom hunter, this is paradise. I love the cooler, foggy,  seaside days. The rain is here just like clockwork starting on October 1st. It’s a bit chilly (50′s), cloudy, and rainy. If you’ve ever visited this area during the rainy season, then you know why we love our… Continue reading | 2 Comments

• Clarins Gloss Appeal Lip Gloss Review – Love To Wear It

  Date: 2008.09.18 | Category: makeup | Response: 1

  

  Clarins Gloss Appeal Lip Gloss was launched last year (2007) and I played with it for a little bit and then went on my merry way. Lately, I have revisited this formula and realized that I really like.

  It is a pretty basic lip gloss that goes and smooth and feels like it is “nourishing”. The wand has a wider than normal doe foot applicator and a clear wand. The “amazing” thing about the wand is that none of the gloss goops on it and the wand  comes out clean. That’s… Continue reading | 1 Comment
