Hello ladies.....my fragrance of the week is Tous Touch by Tous. Another European, i smelled it and i kept thinking i knew this smell, it was sooo familiar. I couldn't put my finger on it. Then i took a shower and i caught a whiff of it again... this time something took hold. Lush, lol. It was something i had smelled from Lush, and the gears began to turn and half a second later it hit me. It smells exactly like Honey I Washed the Kids bar soap!! It is my fave smell from Lush and i can't believe i found the perfume counterpart. Its grouped as being floral fruity gourmand. "Fresh floral waft of freesia, lily of the valley, and lotus of the top, slide into a more intense floral heart with luscious jasmine, osmanthus and Thiare flower. The sweet fruity base brings notes of blueberry, raspberry, almond and vanilla."Friday, June 11, 2010

Into the Blue
Hello ladies.... nothing says summertime to me then bright blue nails. I love it on me... or on anybody. This look is bright, fresh, fun, and trendy. Stick to the brights though i wouldn't go too navy or midnight blue, it doesn't have the same effect. You can go for the teals, the blue-greens, and the turquoise for more of the vintage look. My favorite colors so far this summer are OPI's What's With the Cattitude?, Sephora by OPI's Blue Grotto, Essie's Lapis of Luxury, Essie's Turquoise and Caicos, and of course China Glaze's For Audrey.

Thirsty? - (FrOTW)
How about some H2O? Hello ladies.... I decided to diverge from my usual spicy florals and delve into something lighter and fresher for summer. Tous H2O won me over. I'm not a huge fan of fresh scents they kinda make me nauseous, and the biggest seller of course Light Blue by D&G i can't stand. It smells like cleaner to me.. gag! I really don't get why everyone likes it. Tous H2O is soo much lighter and fresher. It features top notes of organic lemon, organic lavender, rose, jasmine, mandarin, and ginger, as well as base notes of amber, cedar, and Australian sandalwood. The result is a fragrance that's clean and fresh, sparkling and invigorating. For me, the citrus notes have the biggest impact here, since they add to the watery freshness of the scent. Not to mention the bottle is adorable!! Its in the shape of a multi-faceted rain drop. It is also termed an Ecochic fragrance- some of the proceeds go to purify water in ailing countries, and the bottle itself is 100% biodegradable. PS- i advise you not to drink this;)

FOTD - Bella Notte
Hello ladies... well i figured i'd just get this one out of the way:) Bella Swan's makeup in Twilight. I loved her makeup in the movie so i started researching on the internet who her makeup artist was and what products she used. This was my first bite of the addict apple. I learned it was a Mac makeup artist and she used Mac Blot Powder in Light, Mac e/s Blanc Type, Flute, and Wedge, Benefit Badgal WP Mascara, Benefit l/s Good-to-go. But that was the extent of the information... so the rest im playing by ear from watching the movie. Her skin is very light and matte with some contouring and sutle highlight. I used Nars Sheer Glow foundation, Mac e/s Wedge to contour and Benefit High Beam to highlight my cheek bones. On my cheeks i very lightly put Mac blush Angel. My eyes: Blanc Type all over the lid, Wedge in the crease, Phloof to highlight browbone. Then to line my eyes i used a silvery e/s color Gorgeous l/e. It really helps to brighten and draw your attention to the eyes, but not too sparkley just a little shimmer. I didn't have Bad Gal lash so i used Clinique High Impact mascara. You don't really want a volumizing mascara you want it to look natural. Then on my lips i used Good-to-go. Not too bad i think:)
