Lipstick -L'Oreal - Colour Riche Balm - 218 Rose Elixir
rated 4 of 5

The colour is a fairly sheer pink, good for a natural look but a bit lacking if you're after a more vibrant colour. This is a nice product to wear on a very light makeup day. The texture is soft and smooth and is reasonably moisturizing, not thick and goopy like Revlon's lip butter. I definitely prefer this formula to Revlon's, and would like to try a deeper colour.

Fragrances -Annick Goutal - Musc Nomade

A little powdery, a little almondy, a little animalic, and very snuggly-wuggly. If you like warm, cozy musks, this one's a winner.

Sweet floral, very similar to BBW Secret Wonderland. Nice, but no lasting power at all.

I really wanted to love this one, based on all the reviews that described it as a soft, powdery, and old-fashioned floral. Sadly, although I can detect softness and creaminess deep down, a shrill, headache-inducing note (the pink pepper) gets in the way. So many modern mainstream fragrances give me headaches that I've largely stopped trying them, so I was disappointed by yet another dud.

Fragrances -Jo Malone - Peony & Moss

Kick the blackcurrant out of this fragrance and it would be lovely. Instead, it makes this mossy floral smell like children's aspirin. It's a shame, because I love the idea of a mossy peony, and the bottle is beautiful.

I used this to fix the little paint injuries on my Ford Fiesta. Much cheaper than touch-up paint.

Pale, washed-out, vaguely musky floral with a nasty, shrill citrus top note.

Cadbury in a bottle. What more needs to be said?

Fragrances -Marc Jacobs - Daisy Eau So Fresh

Yes, DESF is a pleasant, non-overpowering berry floral, ideal for warmer weather. However, I admit that I bought this just because the bottle has those goshdarned cute squishy flowers!

Lip Treatments -eos - Lip Balm Sphere - Summer Fruit
rated 4 of 5

Decent, nice smelling and tasting lip balm. Not super moisturizing, but not greasy and heavy either. It's a little bulky for my purse, so I keep it in my night table drawer. It works well for when I wake up in the middle of the night with uncomfortable dry lips (which happens fairly often).

Fragrances -Unlisted Brand - Wiggle Perfume - 101
rated 5 of 5
atomic_girl 3/18/2012 2:30:00 PM

Another fabulous fragrance from Wiggle Perfumes on Etsy. Since the weather has been so nice and warm and springy lately, 101 seemed like the right scent to wear today. It's a very fresh and surprisingly long-lasting zesty grapefruit and mint fragrance with a light floral drydown.

I'm really not familiar with the works of H.P. Lovecraft and I have no clue how the name is pronounced. I do know that this is a pleasant sea-floral not unlike BBW's Sea Island Cotton.

Smells like lemonade, camphor, and beachballs.
