Fragrances -Victoria's Secret - Pink Warm & Cozy
rated 2 of 5
littlemintjulip 7/30/2010 11:15:00 AM

This smells almost identical to Pink Sugar, except minty. I can enjoy Pink Sugar occasionally, but this I cannot. It smells extremely minty at first sniff, and then develops a headache-inducing quality. Luckily for me, maybe not for you, this wears off very quickly. It is quite cheap though. Trust me, I am a love love LOVER of all things vanilla and food-smelling. I was hoping for cotton candy or vanilla or creme brulee, but I didn't get any of that at all. It smells so much like Soft and Dreamy, worse at inducing headaches for me, and also like Pink Sugar. So if you like Pink Sugar a lot or SOft and Dreamy, then why not give it a try.

Fragrances -Victoria's Secret - Pink with a Splash FRESH & CLEAN
rated 3 of 5
littlemintjulip 7/30/2010 11:03:00 AM

I bought this in a set of four: fresh & clean, cozy & warm, fruity & bright and sweet & flirty. This smells nearly identical to Light Blue. I can't stand something about Light Blue, maybe the musk in it? I get a headache almost immediately, so I was worried after spraying this one. Luckily, the scent was much lighter than Light Blue and wore off much faster. It does smell kind of nice; reminds me of a crisp green apple. This has smelled nice on some people before, so if your a Light Blue fan you might as well give it a try if your in the store. Also, I recommend layering it with the body lotion. Fresh & Clean is pretty long lasting, I put one spray on my hand at night and can faintly smell it in the morning. This is probably the longest lasting of my four. The only reason I wouldn't repurchase is because I don't like the Light Blue-esque scent. But again, give it a try if you like Light Blue.

Mascara -Maybelline - Great Lash BIG
rated 4 of 5
littlemintjulip 11/6/2009 4:22:00 PM

My favorite mascara ever! It is definitely build-able, very rarely clumps and if it does it will de-clump after going over it with the brush again. It makes my eyelashes amazingly long and thick and also curls it, despite not being a waterproof mascara. Since it isn't waterproof, I won't take off points for it rubbing off moderately. I did take off a point for my eyelashes being pulled out whenever I take it off. I love the pink and green packaging and the giant "Christmas tree" brush. I will absolutely buy it again! I have found the holy-grail of mascaras for only $4.00.

Fragrances -Bath and Body Works - Twisted Peppermint Body Splash
rated 3 of 5
littlemintjulip 11/6/2009 4:16:00 PM

I wasn't sure whether to put if I buy Twisted Peppermint again. I do love mint, but I'm not sure if I like it as a fragrance. I am a big yuletide vanilla fan though. I received this as a gift, and I put it on immediately. It is VERY strong. After the initial blast of mint, it dries into a strong minty cotton candy. It isn't bad as a room spray if you are trying to wake up or get in the spirit again, and it's pretty cheap, so I guess I might buy it again.

Fragrances -Victoria's Secret - Vanilla Lace EDT
rated 5 of 5
littlemintjulip 4/13/2009 11:07:00 AM

I love this!!!! I love vanilla and this smells just like my favorite scent vanilla extract! You can;t smell the orchid, musk or amber at all in my opinion but they might just be blending in to create a stronger vanilla! This is really inexpensive and I just wish it would last a little longer but I can smell it throughout the day and cannot stop smelling myself! I definitely reccommend this to all vanilla lovers and any one even if your not a food smell liker because this smells not like cake or cupcakes but like vanilla extract! I love layering it with the body lotion!

Moisturizers -Vaseline - Petroleum Jelly
rated 5 of 5

the best for removing makeup including waterproof mascara! I was doing this and I don't wear mascara on bottom eye-lashes but even the tiniest bit made by bottom eyelashes long! It's great! And if you don't use mascara and just use eye-lash curler then put some of this on your eye-lashes and then use the curler! It will help hold them in curly place!

Fragrances -Unlisted Brand - Aeropostale for Girls EDT
rated 4 of 5

This smells really good! I am a huge vanilla fan and even this is a "green" fragrance and contains no vanilla I love it and can't stop smelling my wrists. If I spray to much on it can kind of smell a little like lemon cleaning spray! But I definitely recommend it.

Fragrances -Aquolina - Pink Sugar
rated 3 of 5
littlemintjulip 4/5/2009 10:21:00 AM

I have smelled this on someone and it was AMAZING! So I tried this at a friends house after swimming and smelled the same on me complex and sweet and girly! I couldn't resist getting this and my Grandma bought it for me (thanks!) but i spritzed it on and it smelled like burnt sugar. I still occasionally wear it because it's not a bad smell just not what it is on others. I think there is so many opinions on this because it totally depends on your body chemistry. It might be for me that chlorine changes my body chemistry or they changed the formula since the time my friend bought it and I did.

I love this perfume! I am not sure what I would call it because it has mocha cream, maple and vanilla but is not a food smell, contains mandarin but is not fruity and is not exactly a floral its just absolutely amazing! I'm wearing it right now it's my signature scent!

Mascara -L'Oreal - Panoramic Curl
rated 4 of 5
littlemintjulip 4/5/2009 9:58:00 AM

This works great! It super-curled my eye-lashes before i even touched my eye-lash curler! I have waterproof black and use 3 coats and i have average length and average thickness but my eyelashes are straight. I reccomend this it has cute packaging but I'm not sure of the price because I got it from my friend.

Mascara -L'Oreal - Double Extend Mascara
rated 3 of 5
littlemintjulip 4/5/2009 9:52:00 AM

I was really excited when I bought this because it supposedly lengthens eyelashes a lot. It added some length but definitely not as much as I expected or as advertised. It was quite expensive also. If you are going to buy a L'Oreal mascara I recommend going with the extra curling one.

Lip Treatments -Burt's Bees - Beeswax Lip Balm
rated 5 of 5

This is definitely the best chapstick out there! My only complaint is that sometimes with the twist-up tube it stops working and you have to dig it out with your finger. It is refreshing and works immediately, and is all natural and repairs your chapped lips! Peppermint chapstick is also good but can leave a blue residue. Burts bees leaves nothing not even anything glossy, and I dont like glossy so I love Burs Bees!
