Fragrances -Christian Dior - MISS DIOR LE PARFUME
Jeanbean7777 4/23/2013 3:52:00 PM
ADORE! This one casts a haunting spell on me. I love it! I was expecting a young sweet scent so was surprised to find this elegant mature perfume. Whoever blended this is an amazing nose. This is for fully matured seasoned women....in my opinion this wouldn't appeal to anyone that would answer to the title "miss".....this is most definitely for a "Madame" ...LOVE! This really is hard to compare to anything mainstream. It has a powdery quality....I smell the orange and honey and the powder. ....kinda sits inside a smoky amber scent. Slightly reminds me of jean Paul gaultier classique. ....in terms of the makeup scent only. It has a old style dressing room type feel....like old movie star glamourous powdery lipstick scent over smoke. And a lot of the gorgeous starlets did smoke back in the day. So, it's flowers, amber, makeup like and eat smoky. It's hard to explain but it's so glamourous. Bottle is beautiful. Yes, it's expensive. ...but you only need a little so it actually is a great value if you like it. ...

My favorite in the fantasies line with vanilla lace and then amber romance. This perfume is really nice. I have worn it in the smouldering Florida sun as well as icestorms. It's beautiful everywhere. This has gotten me lots of compliments and I really love the sweet scent. This is a superior basic vanilla

Lipstick -Maybelline - pink & proper

This is a very beautiful pink color. I love the feel of this lipstick. It is really nice. I think I prefer Revlon superlustrous lipsticks but I keep finding myself reaching for this one. It adds a nice pop of color to your face. Good with a variety of eyelooks.

Fragrances -Parfums de Coeur - Va va voom
Jeanbean7777 8/11/2012 10:25:00 PM
This smells like ángel.....a much more friendly sultry ángel. Its dripping with cholcolate, rum and fruit. Yes, it has a bit of masculinity to it bit lots of the great scents do! Its rich and deep and I Aldo detect smoke too. My favorite If parfyms de couer is definately fireworks. Va va voom is probably taken for ángel all the time. The secobd I smelled it I thought "ángel"! Dont forget this company was built on imposter scents. They are in the business If replication....and If I daré say They usually do a better job with the scents! This is ángel! Trust me!,this scent would be best for evening or colder weather bit in wearing this on a chilly summer evening and it smells great! Its a gourmand. One you wont come across in the kiere chain stores very much. The longevity is amazing! Really, with this parfums de couerbaround and so chepa everyone can smell amazing!

Self Tanners -Victoria's Secret - Beach Sexy Gradual Tan Moisturizer SPF15
Jeanbean7777 8/6/2012 6:54:00 PM
This stuff looks really good....but the smell is pretty gross. I don't like the smell whatsoever. I know all tanners stink but this one was pretty strong. However, I am willing to suffer for a while to get the beautiful bronze color this gives. Makes.me feel confident in shorts and capris....I really think this is one of the best self tanners out there. I'm going to try to other victorias secret products like the spray bronzed and the bronze powder puff thing. As far as self tanners go this us the best one I've ever tried. And I've tried ckarins, tan towels, esteem lauder, etc. Thks one rocks. Blends well, etc. One of my friends loves lancomes leg tanner so I will try that too...but this one is great. I'm normally lake so this adds some color to me. Again, the smell....I think that could be conquered by applying at night before bed so the initial smell can ware down by morning...I have applied several.times to my face with no breakout whatsoever and I am an acne prone person....thks hasn't caused a skin problem for me. It's really a healthy looking bronze. If you have a problem with bronxers disappearing in your skin try this one. You can see it. Just give it time to absorb and dry down to lose the chemical smell.

Eyeliner -Revlon - ColorStay Liquid Liner
Jeanbean7777 8/5/2012 5:05:00 AM
Amazing eyeliner....longest lasting. I'm not kidding. I wore it tons party yesterday. Washed my face with soap and water....I assumed the eyeliner was off and didn't look into a mirror after I washed my face and woke up this morning with eyeliner on. Yep, its been on my eyes all day. I'm buying a few more of these cuz they are so good. Worth the $ and more. Don't waste ur money on expensive liner ...this is the best. Good job Revlon.

Lipstick -Victoria's Secret - Perfect Lipstick in Dedication
Jeanbean7777 8/2/2012 10:25:00 PM
This product is not quite a 5 but it is extremely nice formulation. Very soft and hydrating. In ny small opinion, lots of these colors are geared towards warm colored women. I am a pale brunette with dark hair, green eyes and I have a cool undertone to my skin. This was the best color for me unless I was going for high drama in which case they have a few red it berry bright ones which would be better. This color is pretty and I think it looks good. Kinda makes my lips look like I took a bite out of a ripe red purple Apple and got a little stain on.

Fragrances -Victoria's Secret - Mood in Sweet Craving
Jeanbean7777 7/28/2012 12:46:00 AM
I bought this in the store last year during the semi annual sale.....my verdict is that the scented cream in the tube is the best product in the line. It smells really good. I wore this once last year right after I bought it and I forgot I had it. This seems to be one men like. I did get a compliment from my man after I had it on all night. It smells better after it warms up. I think there is something the aphrodisiac ingredients is doing on my skin. I notice more attention and I feel kinda sexy-like with it on. So, I think it mixes with my chemistry. These were expensive before the sale. I bought mine for 75 per cent off....like $5 a product. I got a body cream, a body lotion and a mist. All still in good shape still.

Fragrances -Victoria's Secret - Hello Darling
Jeanbean7777 7/21/2012 3:25:00 AM
Trust me ladies, this one won't be there for long....all I have to day is goodbye darling! Lol!......this is an atrocious scent. I never returned a product quicker....no one who smelled this lined this at all. This would have been great as a refreshing sweet floral...I expected to smell something bright with a floral twist....this as a major letdown.

Fragrances -Victoria's Secret - all victoria's secret fragrances
Jeanbean7777 7/21/2012 3:16:00 AM
Personally I think VS does great scents...I'm an average woman and here is my opinion on their lineup...BOMBSHELL is a 5 fragrance.smells amazing. Walks the delicate line of sexy and non offensive. Smells good and girly all the time. I have the perfume mist and body powder. All are fab....RAPTURE-I love it but many hate it. It's very strong. Not modern and most can't pull this off. Dream angels HEAVENLY ...us the opposite of rapture. It's fresh and liked by almost everyone. It is amazingly popular for a reason! This smells great on most but in every form but the perfume this dries down gross on my skin. I have found a better version of heavenly in armani she....a price of armani she and dream angels heavenly are close and armani she drydown is better. Smells more expensive. Dream angels divine is off the hook good. Very clean and pretty. Like soap...dream angels desire seems ok to me but I find it kind of a sweet purple type scent.....sexy little things noir and tease are ultra sweet and fruity...they seem youngish and don't last more than 10 minutes on my skin. But while they are on your skin they smell great. VERY SEXy bush mist smells incredible and men like it. I once went to a party and no man was giving me the time of day. I squirted a few sprays of this on and got two phone numbers and even the cabbie asked me to go fishing with him the next day...so men do like this. Especially in the mist form. Pink is a beauty of a fragrance but I've outgrown it. To me, its young and just not me anymore. I personally do not like body by Victoria at all. Very sexy touch smells pretty. The fantasies line is for the most part all the same victorias secret sweet smell with their signature veneer scent...the exceptions to this are amber romance which smells great. I love it. It also doesn't smell bubble gum sweet.....coconut Passion smells good too....its mostly vanilla though....pure seduction is very seducing. Men like it cuz its smells like strawberries to them. Love spell is one I'm divided on. It smells ultra sweet and kinda like coolaid....but sometimes it makes me nauseaus and let's face it half the highschool girls in America wear this....a fantasies event I really like is sheer love. I think it smells fresh and pretty. Is like to see vicforias secret do a quality raspberry scent.....a sect bright berry their be seduced is pretty bad. I like their secret craving a lot but it turns to too Mich incense on my skin. I own secret charm and it smells pretty good except that it gives me a headache. True escape is pretty good because its fresh and not sugary. Strawberries and champagne is gross. I can't believe I used to wear it. Yuck pear glace smells fresh and kinda green. Obviously its based on pear. When I tried it I did not like it....their vanilla lace.smells good but I think they pull it from their shelves a lot now. I wish they still made the perfume...mango temptation is super mangoey, tropical and fruity. It does smell good bit it reminds me of your basic under fruity scent. If you want something fruity, summertime scent this is perfect. Their new hello darling is terrible. Smells awful.....their such a flirt is inert sweet with the starfruit but it smells great. Very sweet.....I'm trying to think of the others they have......let's see life seduction (good), love spell(ok-), amber.romance.(good), mango temptation (ok) secret charm(better than average) be seduced (eh...no sale for me, true escape (smells good) sheer love(great) all their summers aren't anything groundbrewking either and the violet one is terrible. Strawberries and champagne (gross) pear glace (ok...maybe good of you want fresh.....vanilla lace is pretty darn good if you like vanilla and can find it.....most of them are ok.......the best they have is very sexy, BOMBSHELL, heavenly, coconut Passion, life seduction, amber romance, vanilla lace, and sheer love. Hope I helped.....also their body buttered are pretty good as all as their moisturizers and body creams. Overall all products are great and make you feel like a million bucks....their new perfume love is heavenly isn't that great. Victorias secret angel perfume is pretty nice. It's ok if you like violets.its pretty unique......their shower held are great. I like some of their lipsticks and mascaras but o tend to like estee lauder or covergirl for most of my makeup.

Jeanbean7777 7/12/2012 1:10:00 PM
Very alluring perfume....I love it. It's the best fruity part of angel without the patchouli...amazingly it doesn't smell neutered. It smells really nice. It has a pretty scent to it. Much more modern and wearable.

Fragrances -Bodycology - Brown Sugar Vanilla Body Mist
Jeanbean7777 7/10/2012 8:24:00 AM
Beautiful brown sugar scent. At first it does spray on a little "play-doh ish" but that quickly dries to a very beautiful and realistic vanilla extract on cookie batter scent. Very soft. I have to spray 5 or 6 times but the scent stays longer than most body sprays. I think this is actually good year round....its basically a sweet vanilla smell. I actually like this better than warm vanilla sugar from bath and body works. No kidding! This is better! The price is phenomenal. I got a small spray for a dollar and the divine huge bottle of the shower gel was only $2.50. I just bought Victorias secret 5/$30 and I don't like any of their scents as much as this one. Bodycology rocks!

Fragrances -Victoria's Secret - Very Sexy for Her
Jeanbean7777 7/7/2012 5:30:00 PM
Ok....I wasn't nuts about this....but I squirted it on when out and got asked out twice. I don't know if that's a coincidence or not but good enough for me to keep spraying. The same night I wore this it seemed like this scent was offensive to a lady that sat next to me....so I'm gonna say a lot of females don't like but I noticed men like. I am not a youngin'either. So I think this scent is more mature than most VS Scents....I would say this is college age up to retirement. Lol. This is good to catch a man. I like the spicy fresh scent. It's very unique. Goes on super strong and dries to a sweet floral. Nice.

Powder -Cover Girl - Simply Powder Foundation
Jeanbean7777 6/24/2012 12:19:00 AM
This is a great foundation. I like it because the price is so good, its amazingly easy to blend. It's actually very easy to sweep it on. If you have dry skin, don't forget to use moisturizer bit honestly I think this powder is kinda emollient. I like that it takes me 1 minute to put on my makeup and it feels very good and looks good.I like this better than the powder foundation I got from sephora for $42(Laura mercier)....I truly like this covergirl much better.
