Creed Fleurs de Bulgarie is not just another floral or rose scent. The list of notes is incredibly simple – bergamot, Bulgarian rose (known for their luscious scent), ambergris infusion and musk. Yet Fleurs de Bulgarie is so rich and beautiful, it’s hard to believe it is something so simple. It is an historical scent…
I recently got my hot little hands on the latest Moroccan Oil body products that are causing a sensation. The Moroccan Oil Body Butter, which is a super rich body cream that really has the texture of actual butter, and the Intense Hydrating Treatment, which is a thick textured gel oil. Both are perfect for…
Oh, Chanel. And oh, Ommorphia (she’s a horrible/woderful enabler). I blame the two of them for making me get Chanel’s latest and most beautiful red nail polish, Rouge Rubis, from the Collection Nuit Infini de Chanel 2103. I have several red nail polishes, and while they might be similar, they are not the same. Really. I…
I love powdery scents – they can be cooling in the summer, and cozy in cooler weather. Of all my favourite scents and perfumes, the ones that evoke a clean powdery feeling are among my most worn. I’ve written about powdery scents here, but I have some more to recommend. Guerlain L’Heure Bleu is one…

Cuticle hand & nail care by dalybeauty featuring L’Occitane I love doing my own manicures, and have many tools and tricks in my mani kit. Dry skin and cold weather combined with dry indoor heating is hard on our hands. Above are my favourites for lovely hands and long lasting manis right now. Clockwise,…
I just adore the L’Occitane line of products. I’ve yet to find something they make that I don’t love. Not just like, but love. Almost everyone I know has a L’Occitane hand cream kicking around somewhere – they just “get” moisturizing. And seeing as how I am a moisturizing fanatic, it’s no wonder I loveth…
Waaaahhhhh Dior did it again! They recreated their stunning little bijou of a nailpolish bottle for their latest holiday collection and of course, I could not resist! The Dior Golden Winter Collection has several covetable items that I’m considering, but I could not resist Dior Minuit. All of the Holiday 2013 polishes are beautiful, but…
Goodness knows, I loves me some lip balms. Lip balms that moisturize – great! Even better? Tasty ones. Best? Tasty lip balms that do the job in cute containers. I’m so visual when it comes to my beauty products. Fun and jazzy packaging, while it doesn’t usually indicate efficacy or improve performance, always manages to…
Ok so this perfume is a diva for sure, but it really is the way you wear it. Spray Ungaro Diva from head to toe? God, no. A few subtle spritzes on pulse points or a gentle mist before getting dressed? Drop dead sexy. Ungaro Diva is a rosy 80s chypre that makes no apologies…
