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.

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...

INTERVENE by Elizabeth Arden

It’s that time of year again when I am just totally and completely consumed with bridal makeup! I love it. I love being a part of making a woman feel and look beautiful on one of the most special days of her lives. She knows she looks her best as she is gliding down that aisle to her beloved….her future….her hopes and dreams in front of her as she passes by her family and friends. I starting to notice that there was a difference in the final result of a makeup application on a woman on her wedding day and I needed to put my finger on what made a woman glow on her wedding day. I think it just comes from within. Like maybe from the joy and excitement or maybe from the sweet anticipation that the bride feels as she is getting ready to start the rest of her life as a married woman. Whatever it is…I am always on the look out for those products that give that “Special Glow.” As always, I am constantly trying new products. Of course I have my constant favorites in which I am loyal to but I al...

URBAN DECAY Spring 2010!!!

One thing that I can absolutely say is that my life is never, ever dull! Just when I thought I was on the path of freedom--on my way-- literally --to celebrate the completion of my teaching credential program I took a lame spill off my porch and broke my ankle! What a dork! I find out if I need surgery tomorrow.....but in the meantime, when I'm not totally doped up and loopy, I've decided to catch up on some reading, writing, and planning of birthday parties and family vacations we would like to take this year. First off, I couldn't wait to share my ever consuming love of Urban Decay Cosmetics with everyone. It just so happens that it ties in very well with the preparation of my daughter's 12th birthday party that we are planning for her--an Alice in Wonderland/Mad Hatters' birthday! Consequently, Urban Decay just released their Alice in Wonderland palette last week! I must get my fingers on this darling palette full of great shadows, 24 7 liners, and a primer p...
