I definitely want to add this to my perfume collection someday!

You can use this to moisturize dry skin and lips -- versatile!

I don't really use hair brushes, but this one sounds amazing -- it detangles and smooths for a "perfect, shiny, shampoo-commercial hair".

I love mascara and this is on my list!

Concealer is a major part of my everyday makeup routine... I really want to buy this one because one shade is designed to match our skin color and the other to match its undertones -- WANT! ;)

Perfume Collection: BVLGARI Omnia Green Jade

Happy Thursday/ Friday!

Just squeezing in another quick post to share with you guys one of the perfumes in my growing (I hope!) perfume collection...

Back in December, I shared with you guys my haul from Apothica and SkinCareRx:


One of the things I got is a perfume...


Eeeeeee, so excited! :)


See how well they wrapped this perfume?
There is no way the bottle is gonna break! ;)

BVLGARI Omnia Green Jade Eau de Toilette Spray (2.2 fl.oz.)


The famous jeweler is well known for its fine gems. This floral aquatic for women is elegantly designed from its scent and its beautiful flacon. Symbol of luck and prosperity, this lovely and light fragrance opens with fresh accords of green mandarin and spring water, and blending notes of white peony, pear blossom, and jasmine. Base notes include pistachio, blond wood, and musk.


Bvlgari introduces Omnia Green Jade — a new, precious, joyful fragrance inspired by the enchanting and sophisticated aura of the Jade gemstone. This crisp, floral green scent arouses a spirit of fresh floral emotions and embodies the natural, distinctive young woman seeking a sensual signature essence as pure and enticing as the first spring blossoms.


Notes:
Spring Water, Green Mandarin, White Peony, Nasturtium, Pear Tree Flower, Jasmine Petals, Fresh Pistachio, White Woods, Musk


The bottle is so unique!
And I love the color! :D

It smells great -- very fresh and light!
Every time I use this, people always ask me which perfume I'm wearing. :)

Price: $79 (But I bought it for $51 -- score! Thank you, Apothica!)
Also available in: Omnia Coral, Omnia Amethyste, and Omnia Crystalline

Which perfumes are in your collection? Have you tried any of BVLGARI's perfumes before?
Do you like to buy stuff from Apothica and SkinCareRx too?

Yay for Friday!
Have a good one, guys! :D

Haul Time: Apothica and SkinCareRx

Happy Weekend!

I have been quite busy these past couple of weeks (and most likely for the next coming weeks as well) and I feel like I haven't been as present here on my blog and on Twitter as I used to be... I guess I just gotta learn how to balance my time well. ;)

Anyways, I was looking through my photos and I realized that I have a ton of haul pictures waiting to be edited and shared with you guys. So, I decided that I will slowly work my way through them... maybe one haul post a week? Sounds good, right? :)

For my first official "Haul Time" post, let's start with some items I got from Apothica and SkinCareRx...

I bought two things (one from Apothica and another one from SkinCareRx) and I got two packages, yay! ;)

Package #1:


I got a perfume from Apothica -- I always get so excited about getting new perfumes! :)



- A joyful, alluring fragrance for modern women inspired by the sophistication of jade gemstones. 
- Fresh, pure, and enticing as first spring blossoms.
- Notes of spring water, green mandarin, white peony, and nasturtium, blended with pear tree flower, jasmine, petals, pistachio, white woods, and musk.

Price: $80.27

Package #2:


NUXE is a really excellent brand, so I just had to get another product from them! ;)


NUXE Gentle Exfoliating Gel/ CLEAROGEN Acne Lotion/ REJUVE MD Eye Moisturizer

NUXE Gentle Exfoliating Gel is a skin smoothing gel with Rose Petals that gently resurfaces and refines the skin.
It removes dulling dead skin cells and leaves the skin at its most radiant.

Price: $26

They also added two extra products -- I was soooo happy!

I will definitely review all of these products for you guys, so please stay tuned! :D

What are your most recent buys?
Have you bought anything from Apothica or SkinCareRx lately?

I hope you are all having a great weekend!!!
