Perfume talk and my NEW favorite!

I've been into perfumes for quite a few years now. In the past I didn't really venture out and "haul" them. If I found one scent I liked I usually stuck with it for years.
I remember my very first perfume from middle school was Clinique's Happy. It was a fresh and springy/floral scent. Very lovely.
My next favorite (which I wore throughout my high school years) was Victoria's Secret's P!nk.
Now in my mid twenties, I started collecting perfumes. I don't own a lot, but I do have a handful of perfumes I absolutely adore.
Some of my recent favorites are: Michael Kors' Very Hollywood, Vera Wang's Princess, Hanae Mori Butterfly (I wish I owned a bottle but I only had a sample vial), and another one I don't own but have tried is Marc Jacob's Daisy.

Last week, I fell in love with Juicy Couture's Viva La Juicy.
Now I find this funny because this perfume is one of the most readily available and popular perfumes out there. You can find this perfume practically anywhere perfume is sold. I just found it amusing that I never bothered to try it until two weeks ago...when I fell in love with it, that is. lol
So I got myself a .5 fl oz bottle. It's one of the smaller bottles, but this baby should last me awhile. I don't actually wear perfume on a daily basis, only when I remember to spritz it on or if I feel like it.
Viva La Juicy is a fruity and flirty, fun scent. It's not too heavy, but on me, it lasts and even lingers throughout the day. Can't love this scent enough!!

Please Note: I'm not recommending any perfumes because as we all understand it, scent is a personal preference and likings vary from nose to nose.
I'm just sharing what I like. =)

November Favorites

So I wanted to share my current favorites with you all.
These are products I've been using for the past 1-2 months.
Some of them are new products, some are old goodies.


1. MAC 187 brush- I love this for blush. Lately I've been wearing bold and bright colored blushes- with using this type of brush it applies the blush on softly and smoothly.

2. Urban Decay 24/7 glide-on eye liner in Zero- Perfect black eye liner, great for easy application and daily wear.

3. Revlon Colorburst lipstick in Soft Nude- my absolute favorite nude lipstick, it goes well with w/ baby pink lipglosses.

4. MAC VV lipglass in Revenge is Sweet- Lovely color. It looks like an intense purple color but goes on sheer w/ a fuchsia tint, which is perfect alone or on top of lipstick.

5. The Body Shop mineral foundation kabuki- I've been using this brush all year long. It's my favorite face brush, great for setting makeup w/ either loose or pressed powders.

6. Anastasia Highlighting Brow kit- This is a great way to match your eyebrows with the correct shade. The brow powder comes in a good sized dome tri colored baked powder- very versatile and you can customize all 3 shades to get your perfect match!

7. Lise Watier Portfolio Concealer wheel- I always comes back to this after trying new concealers. It has great coverage and I've had it for over a year now and barely made a dent in the product.

8. Clinique Dramatically Different Moisturizing Gel- Great stuff, great for combo-oily skin. It leaves your face smooth and soft.
