I have been coming back around to rose scents lately. Interesting, rose is often associated in aromatherapy with “women’s issues” and helping to balance moods. That’s not to say men can’t benefit from the calming and soothing benefits of the scent of rose, but I notice when there are fluctuations of the hormonal kind I…

Chanel Quartz is Beautiful & Elegant
How swoony are these colours? Chanel’s Fall 2011 nail polish shades are simply to die for. Neutral but with a metallic sparkle and iridescent edge that makes them irresistible. As usual. I dithered over the three and ended up with Quartz, thinking it would get the most wear. It is a an elegant neutral taupe…

Floris Night Scented Jasmine
As you know, I am a lover of jasmine perfumes. I was lucky enough to stumble up a Floris perfume windfall at Winners recently (like a Canadian TJMaxx) and one of my fave finds is Floris Night Scented Jasmine. Floris is an English perfumer that has been around for many years- it was actually founded…
Powdery Perfumes, Beautiful & Comforting.
I love powdery scents. They are comforting, and harken back to simple sweet times. I always loved the scent of baby powder and wore it when I was a pre teen as a sweet “perfume”, along with my Love’s Baby Soft. I have also used J&J Baby Lotion, for its light moisturizing and soft powdery…
Smell Sexy & Beautiful
Just dabbing a bit of perfume on before bed…what? Of course I wear my fur to bed, silly! This is a tough category, as we all have our own ways to feel sexy and beautiful, and the scent we choose is no exception to that individuality. I do think there are seasonal sexy scents, some…
Beautiful Fall Hair Freshen Up
After driving my cabrio all summer, and just being out in the sun, my summer highlights were completely bleached out. I wasn’t ready to re-do the highlights but needed to refresh my ‘do. Time for a toner! I go lighter than my roots but a wee bit darker than my highlights. Toners also smooth the…
Urban Decay Keeps Your Make Up Beautiful
Well, the lazy hazy days of summer are behind us & it’s time to spiff up, leave the bronze shimmer at the beach & polish up your look. Fall 2012 makeup looks call for color on the eye, either strong & bold, or a soft wash of color on the lids or as liner. With…
By Kilian Sweet Redemption
I adore perfumes with orange blossom. There is a simplicity and innocence to that scent that evokes soap, babies and even sweet desserts. You can be transported to a romantic garden with intoxicating blossoms surrounding you. But therein lies the issue with this flower. We don’t always want to smell like sweet gentle babies in…
