Fragrances -Elizabeth Taylor - Violet Eyes
shoshana25 8/15/2012 12:37:00 AM
So I am wearing this perfume today, and ohhh boy, I am in heaven...so much so I had to take a break from work and write my thoughts down. So I have ALOT of fragrances ranging from Hermes to Coach to Marc Jacobs. I do NOT ask about the price when i buy fragrances. Call me crazy..lol. But anyway, I am not good with notes and things of that nature (some notes I can idenify more easily than some). It's easier to tell u what smells good and what doesn't. I'm 28 in case u need to know. This perfume is everything that I love and adore in fragrances. It is clean, fresh, and slightly fruity. Yes, i do agree with the reviewer that thinks this smells a little clean laundry-ish (good thing).It's weird because i see negative reviews on here about it and I'm in disbelief, but as we all know different fragrances works differently on differengt ppl. This works very well on me. I actually smelt this on my mom one day she came in from work and I kept asking her what she was wearing everytime she would pass by me. I could not belive she was wearing one of Elizabeth Taylor's perfume. I HATE white diamonds! What I love with this perfume is that it seems as though u can never overapply. In case u use a heavy hand with this (recommended) no one will be able to tell because it doesn't become overwhelming and it doesn't lose its nice, quiet, shy personality. I love this! Highly recommended by a fragrance snob (I'm impossible to please). Lol.

Gels/Soaps -Dove - Beauty Bar
shoshana25 8/13/2012 10:58:00 PM
I do not have acne prone skin, but I've never had perfect looking skin either. I remember as a child I hated using dove bar sopas because it use to leave me feeling greasy and just dirty. I rather enjoyed palmolive, Irish spring, caress and so forth. Recently I went to my local rite aid and picked up a couple of the dove bar soaps (travel size) because they were on sale. After a week of using the mini I became hooked. It smells so wonderful, creates wonderful lather, and leaves my thirsty skin feeling moisturized. I have noticed a significant difference in my skin's texture and complexion. My dark skin has such a beautiful glow to it. My BF even commented on my skin. I will continue to purchase!

Fragrances -Tommy Hilfiger - Beyonce - True Star
shoshana25 8/11/2012 12:06:00 PM
I use to wear this a couple of years ago along with the body lotion until I depleted them. I bought the set in sears unsniffed because it was on clearance. As soon as I tried them I knew i was not gonna regret it. It smelt very clean, fresh and citrusy. It didn't seem special to me until I went to work and went into one of my male co-worker's office and he asked me what I was wearing and told me that I smell good. Hours after that I was assisting a client and he gave me a compliment also. Telling me that I smell great. Do i need to say more? It lasts very long, that I can tell you. I would put it on at 7a.m and still be able to smell it 10-11 hours later when I'm going home. What I love with it is that it so bright and cheery and never goes stale. Perfume tends to go stale on my skin. There is no need to overspray because it's sillage is monstrous! Great perfume. I just picked up a bottle yesterday and can't wait to wear it on Monday. Glow by J.lo and this perfume are the only two perfumes that I can truly say I would buy over and over again because they smell great on me and they get better throughout the day and LASTS forever. Love! It's always the simplest perfumes that does this. I find myself trying to avoid buying expensive, well-known perfumes because they just never live up to my expectations. I took a lippy off only because it's not the best I've smelt, not to take from the fact that it works sooo damn well!

Fragrances -Unlisted Brand - Escentric Molecules Molecule 01
shoshana25 7/20/2012 9:28:00 AM
Lovely scent, Very clean, woodsy, musky and ridiculously long lasting. There are some perfumes that has these particular notes in it. Light Blue (Dolce and Gabbana), Voyage (D'Hermes) and Yellow Diamond (Versace). Even though I like these fragrances it just seems that (on me) the woodsy, musky notes wouldn't come out as brightly. I am glad to have found this. Please do not apply too much because if u do you'll end up smelling like gasoline. Take it from me. It may seem light to you but it actually travels and has great sillage. Plus, you'll only appreciate this fragrance when you get it in wafts.

Fragrances -Coach - Perfume
shoshana25 6/22/2012 1:02:00 PM
I love this perfume, it smells VERY floral clean and fresh. I've wanted to buy it for a very long time but was afraid because for some reason I just thought it wouldn't last long. I read a lot of reviews that said it lasted long so that's why I decided to commit. I can't say much for the lasting power bcuz enough time hasn't passed yet, but the scent is absolutely lovely. I bought the EDP by the way. edit: This didnt last on me...tears.

Deodorants -Secret - Invisible Solid, Unscented
shoshana25 4/30/2012 10:46:00 AM
I do agree with everyone that says that this product is NOT unscented. (I only use unsecnted) While it has a light pleasant cucumber scent, it's totally NOToverwhelming. It keeps me dry and odor-free which is great because I usually have an issue with that when i use other deodorants. I'm so impressed with the quality of the product I bought another one last night. I dont want to run out of it. Right now I'm wearing a black tank top and a flimsy sweater and I would usually be perspiring and smelling sweaty, but not with this deodorant. On the bottle it says that it works with your personal/individual body chemistry and I believe that they are right! Thanks Secret!

Lotions/ Creams -Jergens - Ultra Healing Lotion
shoshana25 3/2/2012 10:35:00 AM
I do not always use Jergen body lotions but when I do I always buy the "Ultra Healing" because it moisturizes my skin and it smells fresh and wonderful. One day a friend of mine came over my house and as soon as she took her jacker off I got this wonderful smell off her. I will continue to buy this lotion, I have no reason not to.

Fragrances -Issey Miyake - L'Eau d'Issey
shoshana25 12/30/2011 5:28:00 PM
EDP Version... IMHO, this fragrance is VERY unique. Upon application its REALLY strong and INTENSELY fresh, you may not want to come in close contact with anyone, until abt 30 minutes later. Though it is strong the scent is not offensive at all. After about a couple of minutes (30) or so the beauty of this fragrance really starts to shine! It is unbelievably beautiful, powerful but soft (very weird, in an awesome way). I love to smell myself wearing this. It smells very fancy, oddly enough it reminds me of something that your office, bitchy boss would wear! ..Very rich-and-expensive smelling. This perfume lasts for ages, it just doesnt wear off, you would have to bathe to get rid of it, and i mean scrub! I'm in Love, hopefully after a couple of wears i wont get sick of it...I want it to be my signature fragrance. Plz try b4 buying. By the way i tried the EDT which is just as gorgeous, but it seems a bit warmer and perhaps muskier and sexier. EDT, in my opinion doesnt last so u may be throwing away your money. It may smell great but whats the point if you cant smell it after 3/4/5 hrs??? The only down: VERY EXPENSIVE, I felt very guilty after chucking out dolllarz for this, but definitely worth it, because it will last forever because u only need 1-2 spritz for ALL day freshness. Select "YES" to let me know if this was helpful! EDIT: OK OK OK, got really annoyed with this one... waaayy too strong to deal with, and i am not comfortable in it, i just seem to believe that ppl would despise me for wearing it around them. Fragrances are suppose to make you feel confident and beautiful, this is doing the opposite. Even one spray gives me a headache. I happened to like the EDT a lot better. It's calmer, seems to melt into the skin and smells awesome, and has good staying-power. EDP going back to Macy's.

Fragrances -Clinique - Happy Heart
shoshana25 12/28/2011 2:52:00 PM
Really tried to like this fragrance, since i'm really into clean fragrances, but it never ceases to annoy me , hurt my throat and give me a headache. I would really hate to be around anyone that wears Happy Heart. It goes on sooo strong and never seems to develop. Not for me. Sorry :(. 1 Lippie for packaging, simple and clean looking.

Fragrances -Philosophy - Amazing Grace Eau De Parfum
shoshana25 12/2/2011 3:06:00 PM
I always loved the smell of Amazing Grace but didnt feel like spending sooo much money on an EDT that didnt last. On one of my last recent trips to Macys i decided to to purchase the EDP along with the matching lotion assuming it would last. First of all i love the smell, it is amazing, IMO. Smells like shampoo, i adore that scent and if u read my other reviews you'll find this to be true! I just love the smell of freshly washed hair and/or skin! Wore it yesteday and my sister told me that i smell like a great shampoo. Call me weird, but that's a compliment. This perfume is soft and not cloying at all, you will be happy that you're the one smelling so AMAZING, really. Also ive seen other reviewers describing this as powdery, which is weird because on me its str8 shampoo from beginning to end. It has decent staying power. IMO perfumes that u LOVE doesnt seem to last long. I bet if it were sweet, loud and MUSKY it would last forever...uuuggh!! Ask for this for chrismas, it's worth a try.

Fragrances -Avon - Haiku Perfume
shoshana25 11/14/2011 10:18:00 PM
I own the roll-on antiperpirant in this scent and decided to try it today. I started to get a nice whiff of it and realized that it was coming from me! As soon as i left my doc's appt i ran to go get the complete set. I adore it. Totally does NOT smell like an Avon perfume. I own a lot of expensive perfumes but this little HAIIKU has me going back for more. I would consider this to be soapy, fresh, clean and divine! It goes on pretty strong but in a couple of minutes it softens up to a beautiful aroma that wafts around u. It lasts pretty long too, it's worth a try.
