Review: Lush Snow Fairy Shower Gel


Hey girls! So the holidays are just around the corner and what is a better way to celebrate than giving the girl/woman of your life Lush’s Snow Fairy Shower Gel. This shower gel came out last year too as part of Lush’s holiday collection and it sold out like hot cakes. Well this year, for all of you who missed out on it last year, here is your chance to grab it this year. The 3.3 fl oz. size retails for $8.95, the 8.4 fl oz. size retails for $16.95, and the 16.9 fl oz. size costs $24.95. These gels can be found at Lush counters, Lush stores, and Lush online. Keep reading to see what I think about this product!


Pro(s):
-Smells great and doesn’t irritate skin.
-Moisturizes well and is vegan.
-Foams up really well.

Con(s):
-None found while the testing of this product was conducted!

Overall review: I guess since this product is so well know, there is nothing to complain. It is absolutely amazing and really goes smelling. There really isn’t anything special about this product other than that it smells great (like sugared bubblegum) and works amazingly. There isn’t anything bad about this. It moisturizes my skin and doesn’t leave it dry. It also has cute glitter in it (not too chunky or anything). If you dig sugar scents and want a pick me up for the winter then this is something worth investing in. Thanks for reading and more posts coming soon!

Rating: 10/10 :)

Is it recommended by Vicky? : Hell yeah; if you love bubblegum and all things girl then this shower gel is for you!

Review: Britney Spears' Midnight Fantasy Eau De Parfum


Hey girls! I am finally back and I have already started reviewing many inexpensive and amazing products. Well, one of them is Britney Spears’ Midnight Fantasy Eau De Parfum. Over the weekend, I made my way to the outlets and went to the Elizabeth Arden outlet. They had many Elizabeth Arden cosmetics as well as most perfumes under their banner for sale there. I found many Britney Spears, Juicy Couture, and Mariah Carey perfumes there. Now, I’ve heard many rumors stating that the Midnight Fantasy fragrance is discontinued and was limited edition but I’m not 100% sure. I got the 1.7 oz. size and originally it is $47 but the outlet price was $35 and I got 20% off of that too so it cost me approximately $27.50. That is an amazing deal for a very pricey and designer fragrance. Well, keep reading to see my thoughts on this product!


Scent Description: When you first spray it, you get a mix of musk, fruit, and sugar. As the perfume dries down, you mainly smell vanilla amber and lots of fruity goodness. I’d have to say that the fruit is black cherry or plum.


Packaging: The box is dark blue and purple with the name written across it in silver. The bottle is a circular, dark blue globe shaped bottle with gems on it.


Wear time: Unfortunately this product only lasts about 6 hours before you cannot smell it at all.

Overall review: I think that if you really like fruity and sweet perfumes, this one is for you. I’ve heard that this fragrance is made for romantic wear but I’ve worn it during the day and night and I got lots of compliments on it. It’s actually amazing and if you love celebrity fragrances then this is a must have. Well, I hope all of you enjoyed and this may be a really good perfume to get the lady in your life ha-ha!

Recommendation: If you love really fruity fragrances by celebrities then here is your chance to get a really affordable perfume!

Rating: 9/10

Apology and Back To Blogging!

Hey girls! I really apologize for being away from my blog for so long! School and my residency just got so hectic and a dear friend of mine passed away. You all know him and he was my shoulder to cry on. My beloved boyfriend passed away about a month ago. Since then, I really didn’t know what to. I couldn’t blog and my life felt like it just froze. Well, now that I have forgotten much I am proud and happy to say that I will start blogging again. I will start posting about a post per day and review more girl friendly products for all of you. Also, since Christmas is coming up, upon request I will accumulate many of my favorite products and make “A Girl’s Guide to Shopping for the Holidays” for all of you girls out there. I will start posting this week and thank you all for caring and emailing me for the past month and letting me know how much all of you miss me. I am very happy to be back and remember one thing: blogging is my passion and not my JOB. Therefore, I will not always be sucked into blogging. I never treat it as my job and never will. I just have a passion for something that all girls have a passion for and thanks again for all the love and support!
