Summer Perfume



I don't know about where you live, but where I live in Oregon it is still summer in September. We usually get "Indian Summers." I have organized my perfumes into the different seasons according to the notes in each fragrance. I researched what scents go with which seasons, and looked up the notes for each of my perfumes. I started to wear the perfume that goes with the summer season. I thought it might be interesting for someone. I don't own all of these perfumes. I have samples of a lot of them. I like the way all of them smell.

I also looked up where are good spots to place perfume on your body. It seems that the hot spots are the best places.
1. behind knees
2. wrists (don't rub them together)
3. chest
4. behind ears
5. insides of elbows
6. spritz in the air and walk through it, so your hair gets it
7. spray on hair brush
8. between breasts
9. neck

The best notes for the summer are:
1. rose
2. orange blossoms
3. raspberry
4. peach
5. honeysuckle
6. island flowers
7. sea salt

My summer perfume favorites:
1. UR for Women by Usher
2. White Diamonds by Elizabeth Taylor
3. Mariah Carey's Luscious Pink
4. Clean Warm Cotten
5. Dior Addict To Life
6. DKNY Golden Delicious
7. Jennifer Aniston
8. Juicy Couture Viva La Juicy
9. Juicy Couture Original
10. Juicy Couture La Fleur
11. Paco Rabanne Lady Million
12. Philosophy Amazing Grace
13. Philosophy Love Sweet Love
14. LIV GRN C2C Fragrance Collection in Earth
15. Taylor Swift Wonderstruck
16. Calgon Tahitian Orchid
17. Calgon Ahh...Spa! Tropics
18. Paris Hilton
19. Dragon Fruit by Demeter Fragrance Library

August Glam Bag

Yesterday I got my Glam Bag and Birchbox in the mail on the same day! It was very cool.


1. The bag is a cool neon orange and pink mesh bag. The card has a picture of Michelle Phan and it says, "Endless Summer" on the top, so that is theme I suppose.


2. We got another nail polish called Circus by Andrea's Choice. I got Spectacle. The other shade you could have gotten is Ringmaster the card says. Last month I got a bright yellow shade. It looks pretty and very on trend for Summer.



3. Salty Cosmetics Glama-ZOID! Eye Shadow: You can kind of see it on my hand. Is a very shimmery, mineral powder.


4. Eclos Plant-Based Beauty Cellular Activator Facial Serum. This is what it says on the back of the bottle: "Incorporating the breakthrough technology of Plant Stem Cell research, this lightweight liquid awakens dormant skin stem cells, increases their longevity and enhances their ability to function like young cells. PhytoPlex24 incorporates plant extracts such as Comfrey and Gotu Kola to help visibly reduce the appearance of wrinkles and other signs of skin decline. You can have a smoother, softer, youthful complexion again." I don't know if I believe all the claims. I guess I'm just skeptical. I already have youthful looking skin. I don't want to interfere with what my dermatologist is having me do right now, so I probably will give this to my mom.


5. Eclos Plant-Based Beauty Moisture Therapy Regenerative Cream: You are supposed to use the serum first and then apply this cream. It claims to do the same as above.


6. Demeter Fragrance Library Roll on Perfume Oil in Dragon Fruit: It smells really good. I think you can get these inexpensively at Walgreens.



7. My Glam Glam Gloss in the shade 02: It looks very bright and summery. I don't know if it would look good on me.
