Bath and Body Works Gingham Collection Haul- April 2023

Published on by essieofwhoLeave a comment

Earlier this month, I went to Bath and Body Works to see if the Gingham Collection was available in store. I was happy to see the store I went to had the whole collection available to purchase. After browsing the collection, I settled on purchasing almost all the new fragrance mists in the collection as well as a gift set of mini fragrance mists. On the day I shopped at Bath and Body Works, there was a sale on the Gingham Collection. This allowed me to save money on the full sized fragrance mists.

Fragrances I’m Interested in Purchasing- April 2023

Published on by essieofwhoLeave a comment

It’s spring time and, even though it’s not the beginning of the year, it is always the time when I start to look for new fragrances to buy. I enjoy searching for new fragrances during this time of the year because my favorite types of fragrances are more suitable for spring and summertime. This year, I found many new fragrances, and some past released fragrances, I want to add to my fragrance collection. It has been a year since I wrote a post about which new fragrances I want to purchase, so I decided to write a new and updated post for this year.

Vera Wang Flower Princess Fragrance Review

Published on by essieofwhoLeave a comment

Years ago, when I purchased a bottle of Vera Wang’s fragrance, Princess, it came as part of a set. Along with a bottle of Princess, the purchaser would also receive a bottle of Vera Wang’s Flower Princess.

I already wrote a review about Vera Wang Princess (You can read it here) so I thought it would be a good idea to write a post about the second fragrance, Flower Princess.

Vera Wang Princess Perfume Review

Published on by essieofwho2 Comments

Many years ago, I discovered Vera Wang’s fragrance, Princess. At that time, I really loved the name and wanted to know what the fragrance smelled like. After searching for the fragrance to sample in store, I fell in love with it.

Today, I still associate Princess with everything a fragrance I want to own and wear during the spring and summer should be. I still enjoy wearing it to this day. Even though the fragrance has been out for over fifteen years, I don’t see many people talking about it online anymore. Since I love this fragrance very much, I wanted to write a review post about one of my favorite fragrances of all time. Continue reading “Vera Wang Princess Perfume Review” →

Bath and Body Work’s Gingham Signature Collection- What They Are and What They Are Supposed to Smell Like

Published on by essieofwhoLeave a comment

Since the release of Bath and Body Works’ rewards program, they have announced new products there first. Even though I don’t pay much attention to them, I did want to know more about Bath and Body Works’ release of their Gingham fragrance line.

I like their first fragrance, Gingham, as well as other fragrance they have released. Since I enjoy them so much, seeing a full line of Gingham products caught my eye. I didn’t want to talk about the line until it was available to everyone, including non reward members. Last week, I found out the line would be available for purchase online for everyone, which means I can now talk about it!

Even though there are probably information about the collection online already, I still wanted to write a post about the fragrances in the line. I also included pictures of the fragrances from the Bath and Body Works email as well as information about their fragrance notes and other things to note about the collection.  Continue reading “Bath and Body Work’s Gingham Signature Collection- What They Are and What They Are Supposed to Smell Like” →

Ariana Grande Sweet Like Candy Fragrance Review

Published on by essieofwho1 Comment

I owned a bottle of Ariana Grande’s fragrance Sweet Like Candy for years. I meant to write a review post about it for some time, but I never had the chance to do so.

Earlier this year, I found it while declutting my perfume collection. I really like the scent, but I haven’t worn it in a few years. When I rediscovered it, I decided to write a review post about it before I finally decided on if I want to keep it or not. Continue reading “Ariana Grande Sweet Like Candy Fragrance Review” →

Ulta Beauty’s 21 Days of Beauty Spring 2023 Favorites- Week 2

Published on by essieofwhoLeave a comment

It’s almost time for the second week of Ulta Beauty’s 21 Days of Beauty Event! I hope everyone had the chance to shop the sale during week one and found products they want and need. I was able to shop the sale and got something I wanted for years, but didn’t get the chance to purchase one until it went on sale!

For the second week, there are more products from brands that usually go on sale (Such as Lancome, Urban Decay, and Too Faced) but there are some other brands that are new. Also, there are products on sale from brands that fit into a different theme. These themes include Women Owned Brands and Black Owned Brands. My stand out favorites for the week is the Estée Lauder foundation and IT Cosmetics Brushes for Ulta Beauty.

As per usual, before deciding to purchase something from the sale, make sure where it is available. Some products are available online or in Ulta Beauty’s app only. Also, remember there is a limit to the amount of products you can purchase for the sale price per day. And finally, Target, which has a deal with Ulta Beauty to sell their products inside their stores and on Target’s website, is participating in the 21 Days of Beauty Event. I don’t know all the details about Ulta Beauty in Target stores. Still, if you can’t go to an Ulta Beauty but can go to a Target, try to shop the sale there. Or on Target’s website. Whichever you prefer.

And now, onto the favorites! Continue reading “Ulta Beauty’s 21 Days of Beauty Spring 2023 Favorites- Week 2” →

Ulta Beauty’s 21 Days of Beauty Spring 2023 Favorites- Week 1

Published on by essieofwhoLeave a comment

It’s that time of the year when Utla Beauty holds their 21 Days of Beauty sale. If you never heard of the sale, Ulta Beauty offers a select number of products on sale for one day only. Each day has different products on sale, but they are nearly always 50% off normal prices.

This is the time when beauty fans can save money on some of their favorite products. Since the sale is held twice a year, if you miss something during this sale, you can wait until the next sale. (Which normally happens in the Late Summer/Autumn)

Each time the sale happens, I always write posts about my favorite beauty products that go one sale. This year’s sale is no exception. I found many products I love to use included in the sale, but I also found products that may be of interest for others. I decided to include all the products I love to use as well as the products that may be very popular as well. Before you go shopping, please make sure to check the item on sale. Some of the products are available for sale online or on the Ulta Beauty app only. Doing this before you actually try to purchase anything is important if you wanted to shop the sale in person. That way you won’t walk into a store to purchase something on sale but is available online only. Continue reading “Ulta Beauty’s 21 Days of Beauty Spring 2023 Favorites- Week 1” →

Sephora Haul- December 2022

Published on by essieofwhoLeave a comment

In December 2022, Sephora had a pre holiday sale. I wanted to do some more shopping for myself, so I purchased more items I wanted but didn’t need. I am very happy with my purchases and am very excited to start using them!

Some of the items I purchased in this haul are holiday gift sets or limited edition, so I don’t know if they are still available. If they are, and you want one for yourself, I highly recommend them! I don’t always like it when hauls have limited edition products that I can no longer purchase at the time the video or post is seen for the first time. So, if it bothers you too, I’m sorry about the post delay! I still hope you enjoy reading this post!

Published on by essieofwhoLeave a comment

This year’s economic problems has not been easy to shop for Christmas presents. I am no exception. Still, I really enjoyed browsing high priced advent calendars. Of course I can’t afford to purchase anything I look at, but I still wanted to see what kind of products a high priced advent calendar will come with.

After looking at so many advent calendars, I favored some more than others. Just for fun, I decided to write a post for Blooms showing my most favorite high end and luxury advent calendars for 2022. Continue reading “Favorite High End and Luxury Advent Calendars for 2022” →
