I Smell...Don't Judge Me


I have to say my heart starts to palpitate just a little at the anticipation of getting to pick out a new product when one starts to run a bit low. Anyone who knows me knows that I like a lot of options, read into that as you will. There may be 3 shower gels, 5 scrubs, a variety of shampoos and conditioners in my shower at any given time. I have to say, it must be fun to be a guest at my house (or apartment if I have one). When I noticed my Fresh's Mangosteen and Body Shop's Satsuma shower gels were running low I have to admit that got a funny feeling all over. About that time I found myself at Bluemercury.

Molton Brown is a lux-London based beauty line. I think they started with shower/bath, then graduated to skincare, and most recently haircare.

Now I am throwing this product in for the hell of it but I bought the moisture-drench rosella hair conditioner. A few things come to mind when I see the words 'moisture-drench', but they are generally all good, especially when it comes to dry/wavy hair. It has a beautifully light scent and packaging that makes me think I am 45, say the word "lapel", and get manicures only with O.P.I's "I'm Not Really A Waitress" red nail polish.

The other item I picked up was the Heavenly Gingerlily Shower Gel. I am taking my first shower with it tomorrow after I get home from the gym. Now I will not add that the reason I gravitated to this scent versus the other options was because I remembered reading it was the one Mandy Moore likes. What I will tell you is that the one I really liked was called Intoxicating Davana Blossom Shower Satine and that cost $45.
