The Fragrance I’m Gagging To Try!

So, what’s on your fragrance want list at the moment? I recently did a blind buy of Ellis Brookyln Sweet during the Sephora Sales Event and it wasn’t quite what I thought it would be. I mean, it isn’t bad but it doesn’t live up to its name either! The notes include pear, ambrette and marshmallow but there’s also orris in the mix. I think the combo of ambrette and orris make it more of a masculine gourmand. I thought it would be a fluffier scent if that makes sense. It’s still lovely but yeah, not sweet by any means.

I receive a small commission if you shop through my link.

We might all be stuck in the house right now and it may be literally snowing in May but Summer is coming even though it feels like ages away! It’s been pretty cold here in Gotham. We’ve had heavy winds, rain, and yes, a bit of snow too. Oddly enough, the start of April was very promising with beautifully warm weather but soon enough it changed into cold wetness which is continuing into May. I sure hope Summer gets here soon and with the warmer weather.

Here’s a few new makeup and beauty picks to get you in the mood for Summer 2020 Collections!

What’s the Best Smelling Hand Sanitizer?

I receive a small commission if you shop through my link.

Sol de Janeiro Brazilian Touch Hand Sanitizer Spray launched last week and I’m convinced it has to be the best smelling hand sanitizer every. I wasted no time ordering two of these (that’s sadly the limit) last week! Yes, it does smell like Cheirosa �62 aka Brazilian Bum Bum Cream which is a tropical mix of salted caramel, pistachio, jasmine petals, and vanilla.

100% of profits from the sale of our Brazilian Touch Hand Sanitizer on soldejaneiro.com will directly benefit Bayada Home Healthcare and their home health care staff who care for the elderly and the most vulnerable. ⁠They will be donating 10,000 Brazilian Touch Hand Sanitizers to this organization.

The sanitizer does contain 80% alcohol for effective cleansing and sanitizing and glycerin as well that will hopefully offer some moisture benefits. If you plan on ordering some you can use SMSSOL20 as a first time customer to get 20% off your total!

I’ll review mine as soon as it arrives and tell you what I think!
