Bath and Body Works Sweet Whiskey Gets a Thumbs Up Over Here

5 stars out of 5

Bath and Body Works Sweet Whiskey Fine Fragrance Mist has arrived for Fall 2020 and I’m wondering if this will stick around for a while. I sure hope so because it smells amazing. I’m in love. I didn’t know what to expect from this scent and a lot of people kept mentioning they had hopes it would smell like Elizabeth and James Nirvana Bourbon which was exciting as I love that fragrance. But it does not. It’s completely different very unique and has a touch off sweetness that threw me for a curve ball.

I Got Bit by Two Bees Yesterday and Farmacy Honey Halo Ultra-Hydrating Ceramide Moisturizer Won’t Help But It Sure Looks Good!

Farmacy Honey Halo Ultra-Hydrating Ceramide Moisturizer had me all like, “Honey! Bees! Noooo!” I legit got bit by two different bees yesterday! Seriously, WTH! Here’s how it went down!

I was in the garden yesterday after work putting out Fall decor. I was placing these cute pumpkins in parts of my garden. The pumpkins have a little stake so if it gets windy they don’t up and roll away. I was casually placing them around the mum beds and they look adorable however, much to my horror and surprise I hit a beehive in the ground. WHAT? Wait, a minute bees make hives in the ground!? News to me! Anyway, suddenly a swirl of bees just totally came up and out of the ground. I was like ok, don’t panic, you got this. I was thinking to myself just leave them alone, walk away, come back later. So, I swiftly got off my knees and walked walked away. Thankfully, they didn’t suddenly all swirl around me like a bad Looney Tunes episode. They were however, still pissed off at me in a major way. I legit have never seen this many bees in my life. There were like fifty of them just swirling and buzzing around the small hole I had tried to stick the pumpkin stake into. As I walked away two or three did follow me and yes, they proceed to bite me on my leg and thigh. Ow! As I headed into the house I couldn’t help but be thankful I wasn’t allergic to them! Imagine that happening to someone who was allergic to bees? Scary!

Now I have to call around today to see how I can remove the nest in a humane a way as possible as I don’t think it’s safe to leave it in the ground like that as I fear when I turn the dirt next year I could kill the hive. I don’t even know much about bees so I’m not sure if when winter comes they’ll just die or do they hibernate in there? I’m doing research right now as I type this. I definitely don’t want to kill them and there’s a local pest agency here that does removal and relocation but I’m not finding many reviews on their services (I don’t want to hire someone that promises to remove and relocate and in reality they just toss the hive on the side of the road! I seriously, had that happen to my neighbor once! They hired someone to relocate squirrels because they were tearing up their roof and the guy ended up killing the squirrels!!!!!!!!!) Anyone every experience anything like this? Would love to hear about your removal process!

Anyway, that was the the story of the week for ya there πŸ™‚

Don’t worry it hasn’t put me of wanting Farmacy Honey Halo Ultra-Hydrating Ceramide Moisturizer!

Fenty Beauty Glossy Posse Mini Gloss Bomb Set Holo’Daze Edition And Other Holiday 2020 Offerings

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

Is Fenty Beauty holding back on us for Holiday 2020? Hmmm! So far we have the Fenty Beauty Glossy Posse Mini Gloss Bomb Set Holo’Daze Edition and the Two Lil Stunnas Mini Longwear Fluid Lip Color Duo but not much else. Fenty Beauty Holiday Collections have always been somewhat of a fail! They just always go on sale and never sell out. There’s still Holiday sets available like the Snow Daze & Snow Nights Frosted Metal Lipstick Set which are floating on Sephora at a discount and for the longest time until just recently the Glossy Posse Mini Gloss Bomb Set from Holiday 2019 was still up and available for purchase. I thought that set was amazing and I’d totally buy it again at full price! And I feel the same about this year’s version! Am I the only one that loves Gloss Bomb? Or maybe Fenty just created too many gift sets and there wasn’t as much a demand as they had planned? Fenty Holiday 2018 was a big deal! Tons of gift sets, an eyeshadow palette, and more. We haven’t seen an eyeshadow palette from them in a while and I don’t think Holiday 2020 is going to be the year we get one but maybe when Spring 2021 rolls around we might get one. We’ll have to see how it goes.

For now, here the Fenty Beauty Glossy Posse Mini Gloss Bomb Set Holo’Daze Edition and other Holiday 2020 offerings.
