What does your scent say about you?




So, I have a sister who is six years older than me whom I have always admired for her fashion and beauty sense. Seriously, she is so cool. She knows so much about fashion and a lot about the whole beauty industry. We get on the phone and chat hours on end--on a very regular basis-- about lipsticks, perfumes, celebrities, and the latest “finds” we’ve come across. I love her. She is one of my best friends.

Anyway, when I was a young girl and she was a teenager she wore Obsession by Calvin Klein perfume. Ohhhh, I always thought she smelled so good. When I could, I would sneak a spray here and there and when I was finally old enough to wear perfume you can guess which one I chose. I thought I was just so cool trying to smell like my sister. But that was it, I smelled like my sister. I needed to have my very own signature smell! Ever since, I’ve been on the hunt. But the hunt could not and will not ever be over. From what I’ve discovered I don’t have one unique signature scent. I have several and they are all dictated by my mood. Or sometimes my mood is dictated by my scent! That’s why the hunt could never be over—the search for enticement and mood enhancement will never be over…but I have come across some perfumes that will totally remain favorites and always in supply--

The newest scents I’ve been fortunate enough to start using are “Zoe” and “My LuLu” by Fresh Scents / Terri. Here is what Fresh Scents by Terri has to say:

My LuLu:
Unique, Captivating, Alluring
This bewitching fragrance has won the hearts of many with its unique combination of China Rain and Gardenia. The floral scent has a bold and beautiful presence that is, at the same time, subtly mysterious.

Zoe:
Soft, Sexy, Feminine
Customers swear by this scent which is a finely blended combination of Light Musk and Sheer Musk. If you like a soft, sexy, ultra-feminine fragrance, Zoe is the scent for you




I’ve worn these two scents either alone or together all week. What I have come to realize is the two scents mixed together make me feel very sexy—in a fun way! I’m applying the oil, My LuLu, behind my ears and on my wrists and then giving myself a quick spritz of Zoe. Laying the two scents make a great combination and I can smell it all day! Today, I am wearing Zoe, alone. I feel like I smell warm, pretty, and mature….not like a little girl overdoing it with my fragrance. But speaking of little girls, as a third grade completion gift to my daughter, I will be getting her one of Fresh Scents / Terri shimmer spray. They all smell so good so it’s going to be hard to pick just one. I’ll have to let her smell all the samples—that are available by purchase from www.freshscentsbyterri.com -- and let her decide which scent provokes her mood best.

If you are interested in finding a unique scent that is all yours you definitely need to check out Fresh Scents / Terri. I promise you won't be disappointed!
Happy hunting to you in finding all your personalities through the sense of smell.

He thought I was 24!!!!

I am literally weeks away from turning 30 years old and to tell you the truth….very excited about it. I’m not all caught up in feeling like I’m getting old and all that hoopla. I’ ve always thought I’ ve looked young for my age and have enjoyed growing up and maturing. I was taken aback recently when somebody I see on a regular basis due to work related duties commented on me being the same age as they were after telling me they were 24 years old….I was shocked. I was like, “honey, you’re just a baby!” and he commented back about how we were the same age and I was like, “NO……I’m hitting 30 here!” He was really surprised. Well I thought about this little fortunate exchange of words for a while. What about me make people think I am younger than what I actually am? I’ ve always been on more of the mature side. My best friends are all older than me….even by 8 or more years. So it’s not me acting immature that makes me look young. I’ ve had two kids so I don’t have that cute hip body an...

A "Wrinkle" in Time (pun intended)

First things first. I need to just touch on this span of time that has gone by in a wink of an eye. A span of time that has taught me some valuable life lessons along with some tough love, and thankfully moments of pure joy. A decade. An entire decade. This is the amount of time that has gone by since I first started dabbling in documenting my experiences with cosmetics, skincare, and fragrances! Whoa, geez! So much has happened over the past decade. An experience of broken bone hell (you can read all about it at: diary of my broken ankle hell ), degrees earned (SpEd teaching credential and Masters Degree), careers started (from freelance makeup artist to high school special education RSP teacher), purchased and built a new home, my awesome sassy pants daughter graduated from high school and eventually moved on to study marketing in the beauty industry at FIDM (a girl after my own heart!),  a sweetheart son who recently turned eighteen and is on the verge of graduating high school...

In My Makeup Bag

Okay you all. Hold on tight because I have an awesome product to share with you. It's Matte by MAC Cosmetics . This product is something I've carried in my kit for a couple of years but for some reason it had gotten pushed to the back of my case behind everything else. Kind of like that always great fitting t-shirt that you love and from time to time it gets misplaced or forgotten about but when you find it again and wear it, it feels so right! That is Matte for me in the makeup realm. I was reminded of it today. I was finishing up a consultation that I had with a client and soon to be bride. She looked beautiful. Stunning really! She was perfectly satisfied with her makeup application and felt gorgeous.....but I knew she was missing something. I couldn't put my finger on it at first because of her beautiful blue eyes that were so striking because of the soft smoky plum colors we had applied to her lids and her perfectly pouted peachy glossed lips and her sun-kissed bron...
