Want to Smell Delicious? Try Mor Perfume Oil.

Oh, the CEW Product Demonstration… it’s every girl’s dream – and the night that every beauty industry girl looks forward to.  In short, pretty much every new product from the prior year sets up shop with a booth, and you can walk around, drink some wine, and test out all the latest and greatest new products from the beauty biz.  We won’t even talk about the gift bag – this year’s bag weighed in at 40 lbs and was amazing (yes, a friend of mine actually weighed it!) When I spied a roller ball of MOR’s Lychee Flower Perfume Oil, I immediately applied it, and immediately fell in love.  I smelled absolutely delicious!  I admit, I have a lychee addiction – any time a lycheee martini is on the menu, I order one (or five..).

Obsession of the Day: Bario-Neal’s Knottedrush Ring

When I saw this beautiful handmade ring on A Cup of Jo today, I swooned.  Just too sweet for words.  She’s giving one away on her site, and I am obsessed with winning it.  Or #winning, rather, which is now trending on twitter thanks to Charlie Sheen.

Beauty Breakthrough: blinc’s Amazing “Tube Mascara”

I have a little bit of an eyelash obsession.  First I was hooked on LashBlast.  Then I got the extensions.  Then the extensions fell out and I was hooked on Maybelline The Falsies.  And now I’m all over the place.  Rimmel Lash Accelerator is my daily go-to, but I’m also loving MAC’s double wand mascara and that fab bareminerals one that I got in my last Birchbox.  Yes, I know.  Spoken like a true product junkie.

A Jean-ius Discovery.

I’ve been having a bit of a frustration with my wardrobe lately.  A closet full of clothes, never anything to wear.  I wear the same thing every day – skinny jeans, a striped tee, a statement necklace, and ballet flats or knee high boots.  It’s a good recipe, but too much of even the best things can be, well, too much.
