Sweet Narcosa

So I was finishing up trying out all my new Gloi summer products, to review when I came to Narcosa.  I saved it for last, since I wasn't terribly taken with it, sniffing the sample vial, so all I got was the perfume. Not that it seemed bad, just that Brier Path and Sanctum were so wonderful, that poor little Narcosa seemed like an afterthought - Brier Path's slightly more elegant older sister.

Been Through the Desert...

I have dry skin.
You'll probably hear me mention this repeatedly, but I do. Not dry, like a bit flaky and patchy, but dry, like, is that a lizard on your face or are you just happy to see me? Even as a teen I only had mildly oily skin (my hair, though - that was another story).

As adulthood and (gasp) middle age set in, so began the Great Drought. It's been a struggle to find cleansers that

Stuff you know you want

Who stole my week?

Seriously, wasn't it Tuesday, like, yesterday? Was I abducted by aliens and missed a couple of days? That would explain a lot.  Any way - here's some cool stuff that every geek and soap/B&B lover NEEDS:

Matte Silk - Holy Grail!

If you've been looking for a finishing powder - I can highly recommend Evil Shades' Matte Silk. I've tried a bunch of different finishing powders - AL, Bare Minerals, etc., and they were all nice but this one - just wow! I put my makeup on, dusted the Matte Silk over, glanced in the mirror and did a double-take! I looked FANTASTIC! My skin was perfect matte porcelain, my pores diminished, my skin

Raspberries and Gloi

Haus of Gloi is one of my all time favourite B&B companies. Britton makes the most wonderful vegan products in some of the most amazing scents. Many of them are foodie or maybe foodesque, but she does have a wide variety of scents in her regular line plus seasonal scents that rotate in and out. In addition, she does occasional 'Reverie' offerings, one-off products which might be available as a

You had me at Unicorn Pee

Like many of you out there, I love makeup. Sure, if I had to choose between scent and paint, I'd go with scent, but it'd be tough. I went for an au natural phase for awhile and stopped wearing it, then I burned my leg very, very badly, and all my skin freaked out for awhile, I had to be so careful what I put on it  - and my skin is hyper sensitive to start with. So about a year and a half ago, at

Absinthe with a twist

Very excited to see I have some followers! Hello and welcome.
Today we're going to talk about The Morbid The Merrier's solid perfume version of Dessert Absinthe.


From the shop "I took my usual absinthe perfume oil and softened it with cream and sugar and soft citrus. Upon opening, the first notes are lemon, sugar, and anise - very reminiscent of a lemon sugar cookie. After wearing it for just a

The Morbid The Merrier Review

Since Lysa's having such an awesome sale, let's start with a few of her scents. I have three perfume oils in the 5ml size: Horseman, Lizzie and Saucy Jack. All three were introduced for the Halloween 2010 season.


Horseman is part of the Sleepy Hollow series, and is still available. The shop describes it as "Fiery jack-o-lanterns, black leather boots, temple incense, and the edge of a dark

Introduction and Welcome!

Hello and welcome to my little blog.  I love blogs - beauty blogs, craft blogs, gaming blogs - I follow a ton of blogs. I never expected to start one though. However, after following a number of beauty blogs for a little over a year, I noticed that, while there are plenty devoted to makeup, there aren't whole lot devoted to perfumed products. Of the few out there, most primarily deal with
