I absolutely love this perfume; it's my 'everyday' perfume. It's floral, but got some citrus, and it's really light and has a great feel of summer. I always get compliments on it. The only problem is that the scent doesn't last very long, I would say it lasts 2 hours at most. But other than that, I absolutely love it and am definitely buying another bottle again. -

Steve Madden Regaal Platforms
Feel like royalty when you wear the Regaal, a lucscious peep-toe platform. In blue, leopard, blush, fuschia, or black suede, this glam patent-heeled pump adds fire to all your evening looks. It has a 1' hidden platform and a 5' Heel, which... +
Feel like royalty when you wear the Regaal, a lucscious peep-toe platform. In blue, leopard, blush, fuschia, or black suede, this glam patent-heeled pump adds fire to all your evening looks. It has a 1' hidden platform and a 5' Heel, which I absolutely love! There is also an elastic at the heel which makes it really comfy and doesn't slip off easily. These statement heels catch the eyes of all those in the room, and they make me feel smoking hot! -

Lose It is one of the best weight losing tools yet. I could keep track of what I ate and what kind of exercise I was doing (even walking to and from class counted as an exercise!). The extensive database on this app made entering a regular entry a snap. For anything not in the database, I could easily add my own items by either looking online or simply reading package labels. The tedious part came when I had to enter a recipe, but once it’s entered, you can just refer back to that recipe again later very easily. There were times, though, where I was at a party and simply didn’t have time to keep track of everything I was picking from all day. For this I added a custom “food” simply called “100 Calories” and guestimated what everything added up to. Guessing gets a lot easier when you’ve been using the app for a month. I found that I’d usually add a bit more calories to my guesses, just in case I was really wrong on something. I’m a gamer at heart, and I sort of found using the Lose It! app like playing a game. If I could anticipate my future moves, I’d know what I needed to do earlier to “win” at losing weight. Going to have a beer with dinner? Shit, I’d better get on the treadmill now for an hour to make up for it. This is definitely an app worth getting. -

I bought this product because it was on sale and I wasn't expecting it to give me a beautiful summer tan, but it did give me a "natural glow". It had a nice scent, unlike other regular self-tanners. The colour develops gradually over a period of days, so if you happen to have missed a spot or created a streak or swirl mark during application, it’s not obvious the way it would be with a self-tanner that works in a matter of hours so you can go back and correct the mistake the next day when you apply it. In other words, it's way more "forgiving" during application then the average fake-bake...not to mention that applying and maintaining the average fake-bake color is simply an aggravating chore! The Jergen's Natural Glow also dries really quick so you don't have to wait half an hour waiting for it to dry before you can risk getting dressed and it doesn't rub off on your clothes or bedsheets. Also, it's actually a pretty decent moisturizer too. It comes in Fair-Skinned and Medium-Skinned, I would recommend Medium, unless you are absolutely pale as a ghost, otherwise the colour won't show up that effectively. -

I love this body butter! Normally, I find that the body butters from The Body Shop are really strong, but this has a nice tea-rose smell that's not too overpowering. It most definitely makes my skin super soft, as it is a really rich cream, but it's not oily. It absorbs easily, helping to condition, soften and smooth the skin, and to prevent dryness, leaving your skin moisturized for up to 24 hours. I have also noticed that Vitamen E Body Butter also helps to reduce scars, so it is really great for that as well. -

"Crisp and energizing! A splash of clear, sparkling mineral water brought to a chill through an infusion of fresh lotus leaves and Corsican cedrat, then finished with a warm blend of anemone, orris and blue cedar", the perfume description says it all! It is one of my favourites and it smells great! The bottle is a little small for the price. It's sexy but not too promiscuous, fresh but not flighty. Turquatic has a presence that wafts around, but flows away just before it becomes too heavy. I've received many compliments for it, and it definitely attracts many guys (and gals)! It's a great smell for any season, but mostly reminds me of Summer and Spring and the flowers they brings. There's a nice mystery and exoticism to this uplifting scent. I love it! -
