Philosophy Purity Made Simple Review

Two weeks ago, I got this cleanser from Sephora as a free 100-point reward with the purchase of any skincare item. I've heard many great things about this cleanser, but I've never gotten the chance to buy it because the price can be pretty steep ($20 for 8 oz, $32 for 16 oz) compared to my usual drugstore purchases. However, you only need a nickel-sized amount each time,...

Aquolina Pink Sugar (Eau de Toilette and Hair Perfume) Review

Pink Sugar has a special place in my heart because it’s the first “grown-up” perfume I’ve ever owned.  It’s definitely one of the most popular and distinctive scents out there- when a girl leaves a sweet-smelling trail as she passes by, I can assure you 99% of the time that she was wearing Pink Sugar.
