Candy Land

As the Holiday season approaches, my clean and crisp fragrances get pushed to the side, and I get in the mood for warm, sweet scents.

Luckily, LUSH has me covered… I recently received a box with the following products:

  • Candy Fluff fragrance
  • The Godmother soap
  • Melting Marshmallow Moment bath melt
  • Sugar Babe sugar scrub

Stay tuned for individual product reviews.

If you like sweet scents, you wont want to miss it ;)

Camel – creamy opaque beige

Plum - rich bold purple

Mink – warm cocoa brown

I really wish I could see these in person, but unfortunately RGB isn’t sold anywhere in AZ. The promo photos don’t show Mink as being a warm brown color at all, in fact it looks to me like a neutral taupe, maybe even running on the cool side. Regardless, all three shades look gorgeous. Beautiful additions to the RGB lineup for Fall 2010 and all available now HERE,

for $14 each with complimentary shipping.

Essie Fall Into Fashion

Essie Fall Into Fashion Collection for Fall 2010

For this collection, Essie drew inspiration from the range of elegant, sanguine hues and camouflage tones seen on Fall’s runways. Maybe a couple of these dusty camouflage tones can satisfy your expensive thirst for the CHANEL Khaki Collection? Let’s take a look…

In Stitches

Described by Essie as a cheeky blush pink, I see more of a rose blush creme.

I’m tempted to call this an affordable alternative to CHANEL Khaki Rose, although this is more pink.

This applied very well, plenty of coverage in two coats.

Limited Addiction

Described by Essie as a racy garnet red, this started out a fuschia pink-red with one coat.

It deepened with the second coat to a beautiful deep garnet.

One of my favorites from this collection.

Sew Psyched

Described by Essie as a cashmere-soft sage pewter, this will definitely be the most stand-out and talked about shade of the collection. Although they may not be exact dupes, this will be my affordable alternative to CHANEL Khaki Vert.

Merino Cool

Described by Essie as a sensuous autumn mulberry, I’m going to keep it simple and call it a cool taupe. I love these types of cool dusty taupes, another favorite for me.

Velvet Voyeur

Described by Essie as an intense chocolate amethyst, I’m going to call it an intense deep plum. It was difficult to capture the intensity of the plum tones on photograph, partially because I was running out of sunlight when I took these. It’s pretty much stunning and perfect for Fall.

Little Brown Dress

Described by Essie as a beguiling black coffee, which is a pretty good description for this color, it reminded me instantly of chocolate covered espresso beans. Mmmmm Yes Please!

Formula and application was excellent and all photos show two coats of polish.

Available NOW and just in time for Fall on Essie.com

I Am Oscar Grant by Sistargirl

I am Oscar Grant earrings- $13

Oscar II earrings- $13

Description: “Last year, Oscar Grant was murdered in Oakland, California by BART (Bay Area Rapid Transit) police officer, Johannes Mehserle who was recently sentenced for involuntary manslaughter (minimum sentence for murder). This is the first time in California where a police officer was ever indicted for murder. In remembrance of Oscar Grant and the ongoing struggle to hold police accountable and bring them to justice, I hope these earrings allow the wearer to dialogue with those unaware of the issue.”

Please help in the effort… this is an amazing project by an even more amazing young lady. Proceeds go to the Los Angeles Coalition for Justice for Oscar Grant.
