As a lover of everything vanilla, I had expectations about Clean Est 2003 Whipped Vanilla Body Mist that were met and surpassed. The wonderful pure vanilla notes are there from start to finish. But these notes are surrounded and lifted by an entire symphony of sweetness. Coconut, bergamont, pear and caramel are just a few of the notes that rise to the top. The dry down brings the complexity of sandalwood and musk, but it's just a hint beneath the sweetness. This is a very strong, sweet scent that lasts all day, and seems to be reactivated by workouts or higher body temperatures. I would suggest using sparingly rather than an all over mist. The sweetness is beautiful, but the mist holds a lot of scent.

Erborian's CC Cream is flat out my favorite CC Cream of all time. I was already a regular user of a competing CC Cream, but this offers a wider world of benefits. I realize now that my previous product was basically a lightweight makeup. This CC Cream offers a blend of skin care (Centella Asiatica extract), sun protection (broad spectrum SPF 25) and weightless coverage (a unique encapsulated pigment formula). The product goes on clear and quickly color adjusts to even out my fair complexion and blur imperfections. I initially felt like I was putting on a colorless cream and could hardly believe how much more even and radiant my complexion looked almost instantly. The cream seems to hover above my fine lines for a truly weightless look and feel. My skin is very dry, and I'm thrilled with everything about this CC Cream.

With its powerful simplicity, Erborian's Centella Barrier Cream is a revolutionary skin care product for me. It's incredibly concentrated, a thick balm that spreads easily on my face and neck where it sinks in quickly and creates a smooth surface. In minutes, all my dry areas and fine lines are plumped and soothed. The cream is great as a base for make up or alone. I've even used a touch of it on my dry elbows and hands. I'm so impressed with how restored my skin looks and feels with every use. The packaging makes it easy to take it in my bag. I love this product!

L’Occitane Almond Supple Skin Oil makes me happy in so many ways. I apply the oil to my arms and legs after showering and they instantly feel smoother and firmer. Stretch marks appear diminished, and the overall look of my skin is improved. Bonus-- I’m using this oil on top of self-tanner, and it seems to be extending my faux tan by days. And the best part is that all of these benefits come blended with the most gloriously enticing scent— L’Occitane’s signature almond vanilla fragrance. 48 hour hydration that smells like heaven? Sold!

The thing I enjoy most about L’Occitane products is their fragrance, so I am thrilled with this light, versatile scented mist. Just a tiny spritz transports me to a world of joyful sunshine. On me, it dries down to a very warm, sweet blend of blooming almond trees and lots of vanilla. The mist feels weightless on my skin and hair, and the fragrance lasts all day. It's an easy way to lift my mood and feel a sense of warmth and well-being.

L'Occitane Amande Shimmering oil is summer in a bottle. Just a touch of this shimmering almond scented oil rubbed onto the tops of my shoulders and on my collarbones gives my skin a mermaid-worthy gleam. In the bottle, the oil looks extremely shimmery, but on my skin the shine is subtle and glowing. This effect is amplified by the cloud of heavenly sweet almond scent. It's subtle enough to blend with other fragrances, but enticing all on its own. I love that this oil is vegan and cruelty-free, and that it is nourishing for my skin. I can imagine how beautiful it will be on top of a faux tan!

Like sunshine in a bottle. On me, this scent starts out as mandarin orange, then dries down to clean water, like ocean mist with a flowering orange grove drifting in on a breeze. There is just a whisper of musk that smells like sun-warmed skin. I love that this fragrance is water-based, therefore moisturizing and gentle to the skin. And it lasts all day! It's a subtle, light scent. Pure happiness!

I have used cleansing oils in the past and thought I knew what they were all about, but this cleansing oil is a whole new world of pampering and cleansing. The oil whisks away grime and make up while leaving my complexion perfectly balanced. The oil seems to sink in, plumping and perfecting my skin without over-moisturizing or leaving a residue. I was so intrigued by the sample I decide did I need this product in my daily routine. Sublime is the word for it! -

e.l.f. offers four shades of pretty, wearable sheen in a collection that you'd expect to cost way more than $6! There’s champagne, pink, nude bronze and peach, and they’re gorgeous alone or blended together. I love the pink above my cheekbones and on my brow bones, and the peach for a little all-over shimmer. The light-diffusing powder is extremely soft because it’s infused with Vitamin E and Argan Oil. And bonus-- the packaging has a solid, modern design and houses a nice, big mirror. What a deal! -

This quad contains bronzer, blush, luminizer and pressed powder, each one universally flattering.
The bronzer is so natural-looking; and the bright blush goes on in a natural rosy glow. The luminizer is free of sparkles and full of radiance. All three of the color products are buildable, so they’ll work for a wide range of skintones. And to top it all off, you get the award-winning Bye Bye Pores Pressed Poreless Finish Airbrush Pressed Powder. Its famed “Perfect Lighting Technology” really does make skin appear airbrushed. Generously-sized, too, so what a deal! All four powders have a talc-free formula containing anti-aging hydrolyzed collagen, silk, and peptides.
