I have a gud feeling about this new skin and hair line

gud group shot I have a gud feeling about this new skin and hair lineI am a simple girl when it comes to fresh scents. I want simple and not flowery. Like if I want cherry, it needs to smell like cherry. Citrus? Same. So I was ridiculously happy when I first smelled the new line from Burts Bees, called “güd” – pronounced ‘good’. This 97% natural line of lotions, washes, sprays and shampoo/conditioner has scents that blow me away with their “güd-ness”.

I have always been a cherry fan (*going back to my grandmother’s original Jergen’s cherry almond scent!) To me, the “Floral Cherrynova” scent is fresher and more straighforward, and not really floral, which would have turned me off. Same goes for the “Orange Petalooza” and the “Vanilla Flame”. But the one that really gets me is a a Target exclusive scent called “Pearanormal Activity”. I believe I described myself like this:

@ it's ridic! Ia mde a fool out of myself walking thru @ with an open @ bottle to my nose for a good half hour.

Yep, acted a damn fool because I couldn’t put the scent down.

So, yeah, if you are looking for a very scent based product line, I would def recommend that you check out the güd line at your local mass retail store. Just don’t blame me when you walk into a pole in the store because you are too busy inhaling the scent. icon wink I have a gud feeling about this new skin and hair line

*Disclaimer: I received these products from their PR for editorial consideration, but not the “Pearanormal Activity”. I’m shelling out my own money for that!

MAC Chen Man Love & Water Mineralize Eyeshadow Duos

Right now MAC has a Limited Edition collection out (*as of March 2012) that is a collaboration with Beijing-born fashion photographer, Chen Man, called “Love and Water”. Included in this are three Mineralize Eye Shadow Duos, “Love Cycle”, “Pink Union” and “Supersweet”.

I understand that “Love Cycle” and “Supersweet” are repromotes, with a new name, from an earlier collection from 2008, but that was before I was really into MAC, so these are new to me. One thing I like about these duos is that I can use the swirl side as my all over color, and then use a wet brush to apply the solid as an eyeliner, which makes the blue not quite so scary.

These are $20USD and are on counters now, while they last.
