Lotions/ Creams -Unlisted Brand - EXTRA VIRGIN Coconut Oil (All brands)
Laurelwood 2/20/2012 9:40:00 PM
Organic, virgin, cold-pressed coconut oil is probably the most versatile oil for topical treatment! Coconut oil is obviously great for you as a dietary supplement, but it also works wonders on the skin and hair. I've been using coconut oil as a moisturizer for three weeks now (Nutiva brand), and I absolutely love the way my skin looks! My face is fresh, dewy and well-moisturized. Not only has the oil taken care of my winter acne and dry skin, it has also respected my sensitive skin and minimized redness and flaky-ness. I will continue to repurchase coconut oil!

Fragrances -Paris Hilton - All Products

This perfume is pretty girly and fruity just like every typical celebrity fragrance. I have the "Sheer" variety of this perfume and I find it to be a little different than the original.. perhaps a little less fruity than the original? I like that this fragrance is also fresh smelling and transitions well into evening events. I probably wouldn't repurchase, but it's not a bad perfume.

Fragrances -Roxy - Love
Laurelwood 2/16/2012 10:36:00 PM
Ahhh, this is a very summery, fresh, citrusy perfume. This is something you could wear to the beach during a hot summer day, but also wear during the evening on a hot night out. It reminds me if a lime margarita and I absolutely love it!

Hair -Unlisted Brand - Head & Shoulders Dry Scalp Shampoo
Laurelwood 2/16/2012 10:33:00 PM
What a great product! I've never had any issues with dandruff, but occasionally during the winter I get itchy and dry scalp. This shampoo helps keep my roots clean, but also keeps my scalp moisturized. I've also noticed that my hair is incredibly shiny after using this shampoo! I highly reccommend it!

Fragrances -Unlisted Brand - Katy Perry - Purr

What a lovely perfume! I usually find myself going for more citrusy, clean and watery fragrances, but this cute little kitty bottle caught my eye! I love the transition of the fragrance as it grows from a fruity, innocent scent into a much more developed and sensual, mysterious scent. I would definitely wear this at any occasion, because it's so versatile! Way to go Katy!

Fragrances -Coty - sjp nyc
Laurelwood 2/6/2012 9:48:00 PM
A very juicy, fruity and creamy scent. It reminds me of the Garage perfume a little bit. It's a very girly, summery, sweet scent. It's great for the day time on a hot summer day. I can't see myself wearing this during a night time event, because I find it doesn't transition into a mysterious, alluring scent. I really like it! I agree with a lot of the girls here - the packaging is not too flattering :(

Tinted Moisturizer -Unlisted Brand - Amir Argan Oil - Touch of Tan Moisturizer
Laurelwood 12/20/2011 6:11:00 AM
This is a great moisturizer with a touch of sun kissed glow that gradually darks as you reapply. The tropical scent of this lotion is quite pleasant, it doesn't smell like a self-tanner whatsoever. I also like that it doesn't transform to a self-tanner smell once the fragrance airs out. The product claims to be full of benefits for the skin such as acai berry extracts and argan oil.

Moisturizers -Kiss My Face - Olive My Body
Laurelwood 12/20/2011 6:07:00 AM
I just discovered "Olive My Body" from the Kiss My Face line and I absolutely love it! I initially purchased it as a all natural/organic lip conditioner and was very surprised with the results. The staying power of the product is incredible, I don't feel the need to reapply every 10 minutes as with regular balms. The scent is very neutral and almost not existent, which is nice for a change. I love that this product has not been tested on animals, and that the first three ingredients are certified organic. I also really love the cute packaging! Definitely will repurchase!

Lip Treatments -The Body Shop - Lip Butter - Shea
Laurelwood 12/20/2011 6:02:00 AM
I bought this product HOPING it would be a great formulation that would help keep my lips moisturized during the winter months, but I was sadly mistaken. It leaves behind some white marks, so it's best not to overapply. The scent I have to admit - is quite good, very nutty and shea-like, I like to use this sparingly to lighten up my lipstick and slightly moisturize, so it does have it's purpose, just not the one I expected it to have. ;)

Fragrances -Yves Rocher - Flowerparty
Laurelwood 12/20/2011 5:59:00 AM
I really liked this scent upon first encounter and purchased it impulsively, since then my feelings about it vary from time to time. I use it from time to time, but the staying power isn't that great - probably because it is an EDT rather than an EDP. It isn't a convenient bottle that I can throw in my purse and reapply throughout the day, so I don't generally go for EDT's because of this. Still a great scent though.

Eye Makeup Remover -Garnier - Fresh gentle eye makeup remover for sensitive eyes

Unfortunately the claims are false. This makeup remover does not remove waterproof makeup, or eyeliner other than liquid liner. It's too bad because the scent is amazing!

This is a pretty fruity scent. I would have guessed that this would smell more woodsy and floral.

Lotions/ Creams -Bath and Body Works - Summer Vanillas Berry
Laurelwood 12/19/2011 11:37:00 PM
What a fantastic scent! This scent reminds me of fresh berries, whipped vanilla cream and summer on the beach with a berry popsicle in my hand! I wish they did not discontinue this scent!

Lotions/ Creams -Bath and Body Works - Vanilla Bean Noel Body Lotion
Laurelwood 12/19/2011 11:34:00 PM
I absolutely love this scent. It doesn't remind me of vanilla so much as sugar cookies. It is such a wonderful, sweet scent.
