Happy New Year


Bath & Body Works | SAS purchases | Velvet Sugar

December 31, 2013
 
Here are a few things picked up today at a Bath & Body Works store.  They were adding more items into the 75% off bins and I saw the entire Forever Red Vanilla Rum line of products included.  I laughed as two nuns...yes nuns in habits, were spraying the FRVR on themselves and asking the sales associate  who was posted at the bins how much each item was as of course there are no price tags on the bottles.  She ran to the signs to see and answered their questions and they looked at each other and said, " they stink"....and walked out of the store.
 
Yep, and that's why they are 75% off.
 
I chose a few of the velvet sugar to go with the other velvet sugar items I bought already for Valentine gifts....grabbed some WCA also for gifts and had to add the elephant and pocketbacs to get it to the price for a survey.
The woman I helped out at the 75% off sales bins thanked me at the registers for helping her and told me I should work there. The manager and sa told her I am their official mascot and I told her I like being a customer better...I have more fun. 
 

Bath & Body Works Signature | Trio | SKY AIR SUN

December 31, 2013
 
If you were checking out my Facebook Fan page yesterday you may have noticed that I shared to my page some pictures of the upcoming new Signature scents Trio
 
...SKY AIR and SUN...
 
that were shared in the B&BW SISTAS group by fellow fragrance fan Elizabeth Y.  Thanks to her for sharing this early look.
 
These previews are set to release in a week on January 7th at a price of $6.00 for the trio and a store wide release January 21st.
 
I did get to see the actual bottles yesterday as they are already in stores back rooms....and talked in a store I visited today about what they thought about the scents.  The reaction was a bit mixed.  I was told that they didn't care for the scents overall and that they seemed to be old. And that Pear Blossom seems to remind them of Pearberry.   Very Curious.
 
I can't post the actual pictures yet, but here are the photos shared with some scent notes.  And be sure to check my Facebook page as I sometimes post quick notes that I don't blog about.
 
 
 
 

Victoria's Secret | REVIEW | Valentines Day Gift accessories cosmetic bags

December 30, 2013
I did check out all of the new cosmetic bags they had in the store that are new for Valentines Day and I loveeeeee them all.  Great colors other than this pink toned...neon green and neon orange....and all have the clear as well as the lip ( to look animal print) like.  They are included in the beauty rush item sale and I would sooo recommend these.  Adorable with big plastic zippers these are the perfect little keepers for change, pills, women products, makeup, lipglosses( my three fit in easily with lots more room) .
 
I tried a pair of panties in the clear pink case and they fit perfect.
{I am a girl who thinks like a girl scout and I do carry a leopard tote in the car trunk at all times with spare change of clothes for hubby and myself.  You never know when your going to need a change of clothes should you spill something on yourself.}
 
I would grab a few of the cosmetics in the beauty rush baskets on sale now and a few of these and tuck them away in a gift drawer for a quick I was thinking of you...get well soon....Happy What-ever kind of gift.  What woman would not feel special getting these?

Victoria's Secret | REVIEW | Beauty Rush Prismatic Lids Shimmer Shadow

December 30, 2013

I grabbed these two eye shadows: sparkle sparkle and double dazzle at Victoria's Secret on sale as part of their 2/$15 or 4/$20 sale and I snapped a few pictures of the look.  Straight on your eyes, you see the colors, a soft pink and a greyish blue.  But with any change in lighting you can see the pearl-essence of the prism sparkles.
Tomorrow I am going to try the pink on my cheek bones lightly as a highlight just under my eyes.

Pretty nice and these will be kept.

Victoria's Secrets | REVIEW | VS Fantasies DARE DESIRE and LOVE new fragrance

December 29, 2013
REVIEW:
I stopped by the Victoria's Secrets store in the mall I was visiting today to get a few of the new beauty products and wanted to try out these new scents as well.  The shelf that they were housed in was bare and very few of the products from this line remained.  The cashier told me that they were selling it all day today and when she saw I had grabbed the hand and body cream tester for LOVE, she could only get me the lotion so I took that to try.

My initial thoughts are this:

Out of the three scents, I like, somewhat....the DARE the best.  I wouldn't buy more of it I don't think..it's not that special.  LOVE  has this plastic-y smell to me...on me.  I know its a floral but it's not one that appeals to me at all.  The DESIRE hand cream scent is very light. It is coconut, but not too strong.  Maybe the mist would be but this hand cream is not which is disappointing if your looking for a good scent level.  DARE smells very familiar to me like something I already have.

All in all, the packaging is really pretty but the scents for me are a PASS.
