Lipstick -Wet 'n' Wild - 511B Nouveau Pink
PinkNation 8/20/2012 5:11:00 PM
I Don't know what else I can say about this lipstick that hasn't already been said but I think I found my new favorite! I went to walmart yesterday looking to the buy the Revlon Kissable balm stain in "lovesick" but i'm glad I found this instead. First of all, the two colors are very similar to me and the wet n' wild lipstick is only $1 and the revlon KBS is around $7-8! So, you really can't beat the price of this bad boy and the quality is amazing for the drugstore! (love WnW Eyeshadows, too!) This lipstick is very pigminted and looks great on my NC25 skin. Goes on smoothly and feels moisturized on the lips. Love! <3

This perfume is not the best, but certainly not the worst, either. It's definately out of my comfort zone but that's exactly why i bought it. I wanted to branch out from the fruity-florals & gourmands that I typically gravitate toward. this starts out a very loud white floral on me with spice notes (I smell...cinnamon?) similar to a perfume Micheal Kors would make, but KK is more wearable imo. This perfume would be one i'd wear out to dinner or a fancy occasion, def. too strong for daytime wear. There is something sexy about it to me, and you can't beat the price! (I paid $20 for a 1.7 oz at Ross.)

First off, let me start by saying that I got the huge bottle in a gift set after Christmas for dirt cheap. I was excited because the bottle had always caught my eye in store and yes, it does smell good. That being said, this fragrance is similar to "princess." Not dead-on but similar enough to where you don't need to have both, in my opinion. You still get the Guava note but there is less chocolate in this fragrance i believe. It is pretty, but forgettable.. Also, The lasting power is nothing great and the bottle is not my favorite. It's so bulky that I can't imagine carrying it in my purse. I don't think i'd buy it again unless I was able to buy it on sale again.

This is a fragrance that had to grow on me. Maybe my chemistry changed because I do like how this smells on me now. On me, it smells smoky & like marshmellows with some powder in the drydown. It's really heavy, totally a winter perfume, don't know if i'd repurchase but it is nice.

I like this, but it's not a "must have" by any means. I don't really see the connection to "love spell." this has more depth & doesn't smell obnoxiously sweet, imo. On me this is fresh & light with just a hint of bubblegum. Perfect for spring! It's definately not a "mature" fragrance but it's fun to wear on occasion.

I agree that this does smell like old school Erbal Essence shampoo, but i do like it. It's a pretty apple with some kick added to it. It is strong imo so a little goes a long way. It is moisturizing but not as much as I would like, I might repurchase next season, I might not.

When this first came out, I thought it was terrible honestly so I never bought it. However, i tested it one day at Kohl's recently to see if my tastes/chemistry had changed and yes, I have to say that I like this now and find it pleasant to wear. It starts out very strong but settles nicely on me to a sweet lemon scent while still maintaining the "green grass" note that is smelled when first sprayed, very earthy and nice, my mom bought me a 1.7 oz bottle of this from TJ Maxx for $25 (I picked it out hehe) not sure if i'd buy again since I have so many other fragrances, but I just might since it can be bought for so cheap now. Plus, like all the other Juicy frags, the packaging is to die for! love the little terqoise(sp?) bracelet around the bottle. I feel like the bottle captures the personality of the scent well. Def. more mature than Viva La Juicy (which i own and wear regularly...love love!) PL&J smells like a fragrance Chanel would make, imo. As far as lasting power goes, not great, maybe 2 hrs, but then again, I don't spray much because it is so strong so maybe that has something to do with it.

Lotions/ Creams -Bath and Body Works - Dark Kiss- Lotion
PinkNation 9/20/2010 11:06:00 PM
I have this scent in the "Triple moisture body cream." Will admit that it's one of those scents that had to grow on me. it seemed very "medicinal" at first on my skin but then turned into a creamy, soft berry scent. I agree with the reviewer that said this smells similar to "midnight fantasy." I could see myself buying the whole line!

Fragrances -Victoria's Secret - Sexy Little Things Noir Tease
PinkNation 8/5/2010 10:55:00 AM
I just bought the lotion because to me, it smells almost (if not identical) to Viva La Juicy which I already have. So I bought this to layer with my Viva. That being said, the lotion feels a tad greasy to me but other than that I like it a lot! The lotion is a bit pricey at $20 but you get a lot of product so it's worth it. As far as the actual perfume/body mist goes, will definately buy in the future when I run out of my Viva. "Tease" is definately a cheaper replacement.

I'm pretty much in love with this frag! Tried it years ago & have always found my way back to it. It's fruity but doesn't smelll too sweet or cheap. Lasting power is average, but you can get this fragrance cheap ($10-11 i think) so no need to feel guilty about reapplying. This definetly has depth and I've never offended anybody while wearing it. Would buy again! :)

I'm probably in the minority for not liking this scent, but it's just odd on me. sprayed some on myself in the store and I put it down pretty fast. It smelled sickly sweet to me and kind of cheap imo. To me it doesn't really smell like a real apple.

got the mini bottle of this lotion while waiting to check out. I like this, but it's so strong/concentrated that i can't say I love it. It's a nice foody vanilla, will probably repurchase if I can find a way to tone this scent down a bit. Also, this lotion absorbs nicely & leaves my hands & legs super soft. The best "secret garden" scent imo.

I found this really cheap at Marshall's and had to get it. On me it starts out lemony and grassy but quickly faded to a nice chocolate and lavender scent. It's very different, and I can see where it'd be a love or hate with people. Definatly try before you buy. However, i'm sold on it at the moment. Bought the small bottle ($10 for 1.0 oz) in case I change my mind.

I had wanted the original "princess" for my birthday but my friend ended up getting me "Glam" by mistake instead. However, I wasn't disappointed when I spritzed it b/c it smells almost identical to the original. (Which I love!) 5 lippies for the adorable packaging :)

I really like this so far! I bought this in "Petal." it compliments my fair skin really well. I was surprised at how liquid-like the color side was, but it's not a problem once you get used to it. I also like the mint flavor of the gloss side. I took off a lippy just b/c it didn't last on my lips like i thought it would.
