Hi girls! So out of the Mariah Carey Lollipop Bling Fragrance Trilogy, I left the best for last which is Mine Again. It’s the boldest one and I thought some of you might have fun with it. Like all of the other fragrances in the lollipop bling collection, this one also retails for $35 for an ounce of perfume. They can be found on Elizabeth Arden's website (link in the side bar). They are currently only sold at Macy’s Stores, but will be available before Valentine’s Day in drugstores. Keep reading to see my thoughts on this product!
Scent Description: When you first spray it, you immediately smell blood orange. After the dry down, you smell blood orange, chocolate with raspberries, and some hints of vanilla. Towards the end when the fragrances is almost faded away, it smells like musky vanilla.
Packaging: This fragrance is housed in a red and blue box with holographic images of lollipops and candy. The bottle itself is a glass bottle tinted red with a plastic butterfly top.
Wear time: This wore for 8 hours on me before it was completely worn away.
Overall review: I think that out of the entire Mariah Carey, this one is my least favorite. I still love it to death and if I was stuck on an island, I would want all three with me, but this one is more for a night out. If you’re able to pull off such bold fragrances during the day, then this one would be a favorite of yours. It’s not day appropriate; it is better for a night out or to go clubbing with your hubby. I personally wore this to my cousin’s house one day and my uncle asked “Who is going to the club here?”. I totally cracked up, but then I realized that it’s more of a night scent. Thanks to Leila for requesting this review and I hope all of you enjoyed!
Recommendation: If you love bold fragrances then this one’s for you!

Review: Bodycology Rich & Creamy Body Wash

Hey girls! As we all know by now, I absolutely love bath products. I always use a body wash or body gel when I shower. Soap can never do it for me. So today, I’ll be reviewing a really affordable body wash. It’s the Bodycology Rich & Creamy Body Wash in the Deep Cleansing. They have many versions available; one of which I have which is in Deep Cleansing and smells like grapefruit and oranges. They can be found at many drugstores including Walgreens, CVS, and Target at a retail price of $4.99 for 18 fl oz. Keep reading to see my thoughts on this product!
Pro(s):
-It moisturizes my skin and deep cleanses.
-It doesn’t leave dry spots and it’s very affordable.
-It refreshes me in the morning and
Con(s):
-None found while the testing of this product was conducted!
Overall review: I think this is a great back to school buy. It’s affordable, works great, and refreshes you in the morning. I will definitely need this when I start my residency. I’ll spend my day looking at little kids and I’ll need to be refreshed and energized so I won’t incorrectly diagnose little babies. I’m not too fond of the scent because I don’t like grapefruits, but I do love oranges so it’s not much of a problem. They do have several other scents available for every nose. You don’t even need much for your entire body because it lathers really well. I hope all of you enjoyed and thanks for reading!

Review: Boots No 7 Stay Perfect Lipstick
Hey girls! I don’t know about you but I’ve been looking into a lot of international brands lately. Out of one of them in Boots No 7 which is thankfully available at Target in the US because of my new found love with their products. I was recently introduced to the Boots No 7 Stay Perfect Lipstick. It retails for $9.99 and I have it in the shade 04 Mischief. The shade is a cool medium pink with fine shimmer. It comes packaged in a black tube with the No 7 logo in gold printed on it. Keep reading to see my thoughts on this product!
Pro(s):
-It’s very moisturizing and opaque in 1-2 swipes.
-It glides on smoothly and stays on for 5 hours before it’s completely faded away.
-It’s great for cool skin toned people.
Con(s):
-It makes the fine lines of my lips exaggerated.
Overall review: Overall, I would have to say that’s this lipstick is a great buy. It’s really moisturizing and opaque, but select shades might not be for warm/cool skin toned people. The thing I hate about it is that if my lips aren’t exfoliated, it makes my lips looks flaky and it exaggerates the fine lines and cracks on my lips. You get plenty of product in the tube so you don’t need to apply worry if your favorite shade if used up. Well, I hope all of you enjoyed and thanks to Nisha for requesting this review!
