Shay’s Guide to Fragrance Buying for Women
Fragrance buying for women is a bit less complex for women than it is for men and that is because the preferred scent of most women is floral, sweet, fresh or oriental. Woody scents are typically reserved for men. But in each fragrance family does exist hybrids that may seem a bit harder to pinpoint but learning the base, middle and top notes will help you pinpoint the fragrance family. Fresh For women this scent category can be either blue (aquatic or clean), yellow (citrusy) or green (grass, cucumber or herbs like mint). These scent choices are often worn in the summer to cut through heat and humidity. Floral Floral…

Fougere Fragrances for Men
Fougere Fragrances for Men are all about the masculine side of nature and bringing it into your olfactory senses. This is a classic scent family that is typically herbal with woody notes and that are enhanced with lavender, oakmoss and coumarin and bring to mind being deep within a forest but feeling safe and very natural in it (if this was a romance novel of course). Fougere are clean, woody and fresh, but sometimes smoldering. Teakwood which is now called Mahogany Teakwood is one of the Fougere scents that I offer with notes of mahogany, black teakwood and lavender. They describe it as “borrowing their flannel for a hike in…

Whipped Coconut Milkshake
If you love gourmand body care and creamy, delicious ice-cream deserts then Whipped Coconut Milkshake may be a scent of your dreams! It’s very soft with the top note being vanilla ice cream so that’s the creamy and delicious scent that you get first. It doesn’t fail because when I smell it, I immediately want a cone of toasted coconut ice cream for myself. Toasted coconut is the middle note, so it definitely doesn’t miss, and it hits home. Sugared amber is the bottom note leaving you with a creamy, sweet mixture of whipped coconut delight that is pleasant and inviting. My Opinion of Whipped Coconut Milkshake In my opinion,…

Why Shay Sends Smiles
When I first opened my eBay store it was not called Shay Sends Smiles because I had not actually thought of that yet. I just wanted to get on eBay and make money like anybody else.

But it was that sale that made me remember selling is about the customer and what you earn is simply a result of serving them. If you do well, they will return to do business with you again.…

My First eBay Sale
When I initially got to eBay I was beaming with glee because I knew all I had to do was list my first item and the rest would be so easy. That wasn’t really the case as I did list my first item and it took a couple months to sell it. What made matters even worse was that I had not actually been consistently logging in to check on it. I hadn’t made a sale, so I just stopped and didn’t think about it because it could take a year before anybody even knows I am there. That is until I kept getting this nagging feeling to check my…
