Published on by essieofwho1 Comment

It’s time for Ulta Beauty’s 21 Days of Beauty Event! The Fall 2025 sale will be held from August 29th through September 18th with a preview day on August 28th. The preview day is for platinum and diamond members of Ulta Beauty’s membership program.

As with most of the sales that have been held in the past few months, I missed preparing posts about this 21 Days of Beauty Event in time for the sale to start. Even though there isn’t much time left to shop the preview day sale, I still wanted to create a post featuring my favorite items in the preview day sale.

Ariana Grande Moonlight Fragrance Review

Published on by essieofwhoLeave a comment

Ariana Grande’s fragrance has been a collection I really wanted to review for years. I have reviewed one fragrance, Sweet Like Candy, but I own many other perfumes by Ariana. After sitting on my reviews, I decided to start publishing them.

The first fragrance I’m reviewing is Moonlight. I purchased it around the same time I purchased my bottle of Sweet Like Candy and, in my eyes, is a sister fragrance of Sweet Like Candy.

Tru Fragrance’s Love and Lyrics Crush Eau de Parfum Review

Published on by essieofwhoLeave a comment

Tru Fragrance is a fragrance brand I used to like. Their scents are different, unique, and don’t change like the luxury brand ones do.

Love and Lyrics is one of my favorite scents Tru Fragrance has created. Along with the music reference to it, I also really love it’s scent notes and how long it lasts. This is why when I discovered there was a second Love and Lyrics fragrance called Love and Lyrics Crush, I wanted to try it.

After waiting to purchase a bottle of it, I ordered it off Amazon and started to test it to see if I like it. Since then, I have formed some opinions about it that I want to talk about in a review post.

Some of the Fragrances I Don’t Like Anymore- August 2025

Published on by essieofwhoLeave a comment

During my recent clean out of my fragrances, I discovered many fragrances I really don’t like anymore.

This has left me feeling conflicted. On the one hand, I really don’t like the scents enough to wear them. Yet, I still like some of their bottles. (Also, don’t get me started on the cost of some of them!) This has caused me to slow down and actually think about what fragrances I want to get rid of and which ones I like enough to keep. (Usually I choose to keep them based off their bottle design)

Until I make my decision, I wanted to list all the fragrances I don’t like anymore. I won’t name the reasons why I don’t like them (Mostly because I’m hoping to write review posts about them), but just know they made it on this list because I really don’t like their scents!

Some of My Current Favorite Fragrances- August 2025

Published on by essieofwhoLeave a comment

As I have already mentioned in a previous post, which you can read here, I am doing a lot of things in my house. One of the things I’m doing is cleaning out my things and attempting to reduce the amount of clutter in my house. As an attempt to take a break from this often overwhelming task, I’ve been going through my old fragrance collection and deciding which ones I want to keep and which ones I don’t.

Right now, I have some fragrances I want to get rid of. Yet, after going through my things, I found several fragrances I really love the smell of and want to keep.

In order to celebrate the fact I have found fragrances I want to keep, I wanted to mention all the fragrances that stood out to me this month as really enjoyable scents. The list is not a list of fragrances I’m currently wearing nor will I include the reasons why I love them so much. This is just a list of fragrances I smelled while going through my fragrance collection and realized how much I really do love them!

Victoria’s Secret Warm & Cozy Fragrance Review

Published on by essieofwhoLeave a comment

Every August, I start to think about my favorite fall fragrances. A few years ago, I decided to try some of my old favorite fragrances I used to like for fall. One of my oldest favorite fragrances is Warm & Cozy body mist. It is by Victoria’s
Secret Pink. I used to like to wear it in college.

During a recent clear out of my things, I discovered the mini bottle of Warm & Cozy. Since I still have it, I decided to write and publish a fragrance review of it.

Bath and Body Works Sweetest Song Perfume Review

Published on by essieofwhoLeave a comment

This past spring, Bath and Body Works released a fragrance called Sweetest Song. I debated if I should buy it (Mostly because everything inspired by or is relating to music for females seems to be actually inspired by Taylor Swift… and I’m sick of it) but I finally decided to buy myself a perfume spray version of it. After using it on and off since then, I feel comfortable publishing a review post about it.

Colourpop x Winx Club Ultra Glossy Lip Review- Musa

Published on by essieofwhoLeave a comment

When I found out Colourpop would release a collaboration with the cartoon Winx Club, I was interested in what was available in the collection. The product that caught my eye was the Ultra Gloss Lip in the shade Musa. I ended up purchasing the shade Bloom, which I already reviewed here, as well as Musa.

Colourpop x Winx Club Ultra Glossy Lip Review- Bloom

Published on by essieofwhoLeave a comment

A while ago, I found out Colourpop created a collaboration collection inspired by the animation, Winx Club. Since then, I have been considering if I would like to buy anything from the collection. I like the collection, but I didn’t want nor need any makeup from the collection. After months of thinking, I decided to buy two Ultra Glossy Lip products. (AKA lip glosses) Out of the two shades I purchased, the first shade I tried is called Bloom.

Lancome Rose Sugar Scrub Review

Published on by essieofwhoLeave a comment

Over the years, I’ve become very serious about my skin problems. One of the important things I needed to focus on is what I expose my skin to. I’ve tried many beauty products, but many of them have ingredients that irritate my skin or I am allergic to. One of the ones I am not allergic to is Lancome’s Rose Sugar Scrub.

I love to save money whenever I can, but since taking my skin problems seriously, I’ve had to stop using more cost friendly products. This includes face scrubs. Today, Lancome’s Rose Sugar Scrub is one of the ones I can still use without worrying about allergies and irritants. It is also one of the most expensive facial scrubs I’ve tried.

Recently, I decided to review some of my old favorite products that I use on a regular basis. Since the Rose Sugar Scrub is one of them, I decided to write a review about it.
