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!

Review: Mariah Carey Luscious Pink Eau De Parfum Spray
Hey girls! So yet again for the millionth time today, I’m reviewing a fragrance. After my really good experience with Mariah Carey’s Lollipop Bling fragrances I decided to venture out and try more of Mariah Carey’s perfumes. This time I tried her Luscious Pink fragrance. It released a year or two ago and since then has won the hearts of fragrance lovers everywhere. They have 2 sizes available and the 3.4 fl oz. fragrance retails for $65 from many department stores. I personally love it and keep reading to see why!
Scent Description: When you first spray it, you get an explosion of sweet peony mixed with musky sandalwood. After the dry down you smell the peony except the muskiness of it is a little turned down and it’s a bit sweeter.
Packaging: This perfume is housed in a pink box with Mariah Carey’s picture on it and a picture of the bottle on it. The actual box though is light pink with the name of the fragrance written on it. The perfume bottle itself is just like the bottle for the lollipop bling fragrances except this one is pink with a pink plastic butterfly cap.
Wear time: This scent wears for about 8 hours before being completely worn away.
Overall review: I think the only reason I like this fragrance so much is because I am a hardcore fruity floral fragrance lover. I also admire the packaging but I care a little bit more about what is inside the bottle. I like this fragrance but it’s more of the conservative type. It wouldn’t be casually appropriate thus being the perfect feminine scent for work. I think that every working woman needs this perfume. Since I do my rotation no I desperately needed a scent like this. Thanks for reading and I hope you all have a great day!
Recommendation: If you need a conservative scent then I would definitely recommend this!
Rating: 10/10 :)

Review: Juicy Couture Peace, Love, and Juicy Eau De Toilette
Hi girls! So ever since I heard that Juicy Couture was releasing a new fragrance, I was so hyped about it. I couldn’t wait to try it out and finally when I did, I have come to love it. It’s called Peace, Love, and Juicy Couture by Juicy Couture. I have the 1.7 fl oz. size which is $67. They also have another size which is for $87. You can find it in Macy’s and Elizabeth Arden’s website. Keep reading to see my thoughts on this fragrance!
Scent Description: When you first spray it, you get a whiff of green floral scents and the scent of orange blossoms. After the dry down, you get a mix of musky floral and honeysuckle.
Packaging: This perfume is boxed in a light pink/dark pink box with the name of the perfume written all over the box. The actual bottle is a square bottle with the Juicy Couture emblem in the middle of the bottle. The cap is a huge faux crystal with a turquoise stone bracelet around the cap. It has 3 pink pom- poms and 2 Juicy Couture charms on it.
Wear time: This perfume wears for a good 8 hours until it’s completely worn away.
Overall review: I absolutely love the packaging. It’s really complex, girly, and just wow. It’s nice and bohemian. It’s targeted for girls around the ages of 13-21 and I think it’s absolutely age appropriate for them. The scent always blows my mind. I just love it. I have used it repetitively for 2 weeks since I got it. I think it’s an amazing buy if you love unique florally scents. This is different when compared to the other Juicy Couture fragrances, but if you ever go to Macy’s, do sniff it and let me know what you think. I do admit it’s a bit steep for a perfume, but if you really like the perfume then one bottle will last you a very long time! Thanks to all of your support and more reviews coming soon!
Recommendation: I would definitely recommend it if you dig floral scents and don’t mind spending $67 on a perfume.
