Ghoul Friend by Bath and Body Works
Ghoul Friend by Bath and Body Works was surprisingly pleasant for a scent I had refused to smell until now as I am doing a little review on it. Which I give 4 out of 4 stars by the way.This scent is really fruity and yummy if you are more of a fruity gourmand girlie. That was my literal first impression. I wanted more of that fresh burst of literal strawberry mist. I would definitely slather this on robustly and be confident it would blend and layer easily with any like type of scent. It is very playful and though it starts off very juvenile to me, the dry down…

I Scream Float by Bath and Body Works
I Scream Float is a big NO for me but that doesn’t mean you won’t like it because it got rave reviews from plenty. It definitely wasn’t me. This scent is the main reason why I didn’t want to smell any of them. The scent is too juvenile for me but not only that, it smells like generica cola with just a hint of scent left. Right away I knew that fizzy meant soda because that is the top note and while it doesn’t smell generic, it does give the faint scent of Pepsi that went flat. They call this top note Fizzing Cola by the way so it is…

Why Fall Fells So Cozy
For many households including mine, fall provides stability and routine and a welcoming transition from summer to winter when the seasons start to change. The weather gets a bit more crisp, the days grow shorter and if you’re lucky you’re in a state where the leaves begin to change and become brighter and bolder more beautiful colors. Warm traditions of hot apple pie and the smell of warm baked bread often wafts through the air because this is the time that you’d visit the cider mill or the nearest farmers market to pick out a carving pumpkin and some gourds to decorate with. Fall is the season with the most…

A Rose Is Still A Rose
The rose is a universal symbol of love; whether it is for friends or lovers, there’s a specific rose color for it. Roses symbolize beauty, purity, emotional depth and spiritual growth and has been thought to be associated with the goddesses of beauty and love Aphrodite/Greece and Venus/Rome. In modern cultures we use roses for weddings, to show love and appreciation, anniversaries and ways to show affection or admiration. Roses have been used in art, paintings and sculptures and no matter where you see it a rose is just something to be admired for its beauty. And, if you are like me, you admire the rose for an entirely different…

Life in Balance
New Year’s always comes with resolutions and promises — that this will finally be the year you make the change you swore you’d make last year. You set restrictions and finely tuned goals, only to forget about them three or four months in. Some people drop them even earlier, because honestly, who expects to build a brand‑new routine they’ve never practiced and get it right one hundred percent of the time? It’s not realistic. And half the time, it’s barely the end of summer and the new year isn’t even here yet. So you tell yourself you’ll wait until then. But if I’ve learned anything these past few years, it’s…

Choosing the Right Formula
With cooler, drier air about to make its way in, choosing the right formula will be key to keeping clean, moisturized, and health skin. Washing your face is the first step to a clean and clear complexion because it works out all of the dirt and oil that accumulates on and in the pores of skin. But you don’t want to choose the wrong formula when summer is exchanged for dry, cold temperatures and blistering cold wind. Mastering the Method That’s Right for You Cleansing your face at least twice a day is recommended, once in the morning and once in the evening but your schedule may be different. The…

Blue Crush Body Mist by Victoria’s Secret PINK
Blue Crush Body Mist by Victoria’s Secret PINK does smell like snack and it’s my favorite scent from the Retro Summer collection. These “beachy-boardwalk scents” smell light and refreshing and are not overpowered by the smell of alcohol so buyer beware of the softness of the scent. The notes of Blue Crush are Juicy Berry, Blue Razz Slushie and Rock Candy for a sweetness that hints at a little summer crush. Of all the scents this one is my favorite next to the Bubble Gum Beach but I’ll get to that. Blue Crush is lightly sweet and the first sniff does smell slightly like the blue flavored syrup from those…

Bubble Gum Beach Body Mist by Victoria’s Secret PINK
I really wanted Bubble Gum Beach Body Mist by Victoria’s Secret PINK to be my fave because it was pink of course but the dry down didn’t live up to my expectations but I’d be lying if I said I didn’t still like it and would want to stock up on more. This is a summer hit! While I wanted it to lean more into the Strawberry Taffy for a gourmand delight, the other note of Pink Sherbet isn’t on the tip of my nostrils either. While I absolutely love the scent, don’t go in expecting ice cream or taffy nor strawberry if that makes sense. This one doesn’t do…

Cherry Girl Body Mist by Victoria’s Secret PINK
Cherry Girl Body Mist by Victoria’s Secret PINK starts off smelling a bit generic and like alcohol but it’s not easy to duplicate the scent of cherry to take it easy on them. The scent isn’t so much cherry as it is cherry with lots of whipped cream on the dry down. Like the others it is very soft and while you’d think wild cherry this one isn’t that. Think Maraschino Cherry, sweet and generic. Because the scent is the most unidentifiable of the four it is my absolute least favorite because it doesn’t remind me of anything at all. I bet many would argue me down because it still…

Waffle Cone Body Mist by Victoria’s Secret PINK
Waffle Cone Body Mist by Victoria’s Secret PINK is probably the closest one to an actual gourmand with the scent notes of Sugared Sprinkles, Vanilla Cream, and Fried Dough. It smells pretty good and is the strongest of all four of the scents which for those who like things a little louder will benefit. Waffle Cone is not as soft and has a sharper beginning projection and sillage. Waffle Cone is the one that is likely to require the least amount of reapplying. I don’t pick up much on the Fried Dough but I do imagine what I think I smell is the Sugar Sprinkles and Vanilla Cream. This scent…
