Just to update you on my current pink eye situation. I now have pink eye in BOTH my eyes. Last night the right eye got infected. Damn! I wasn't expecting that to happen. I filled my perscription though so I've got to put the drops in both my eyes now 4 times a day for 7 days. What a nightmare. I look like a demon. There is no white to be found anywhere in my eyes. I'm walking around wearing sunny's (sunglasses) like I'm a celebrity... LOL...One of my lovely readers, Becky, informed me that you can in fact, pass on pink eye to your pets. With that said, I have had no snuggle time with my fur-babies. I wash my hands before I feed them, pet them.. any contact that I have with them, I am sanitizing before because that's the last thing that I need, fighting with puppy or Avery to put drops in their eyes. Not fun!
Ok, so on to my post. I really wanted to share my sacred, and all time favorite scents and body mists with you, along with my CLW (can't live without) body moisturizers. Here they are....
Left - Calgon Body Mist "Marshmellow"
Back Center - Victoria Secret "Dream Angels Heavenly"
Back Right - Mark "Peony Apple"
Front Left - Britney Spears "Fantasy"
Front Right - La Senza "Berry Lovely" shimmer body mist
The above scents are my all time favs. They all have the more fruity scent that I love! The Calgon "marshmellow" and britney spears "fantasy" perfume have the marshmellow-y scent. It's so yummy. It's more of a warmer scent. Every time I spritz these, I melt with joy. They are amazing and I definitely recommend this to anyone who loves bakery scents or more of a warmer scent. These are the BF's favs.
I recently decided to try Avon's Mark product "peony apple" scent. People, if you LOVE the scent of apple, this is the scent for you. I mist this and instantly I feel refreshed. This isn't a purfume per say, more of a body mist that doesn't have an over-powering smell, so you can spritz this throughout the day. It's also small enough that you can keep it in your purse. You will love it if you love apple scents. So yum! I have been bringing this with me everywhere because it just makes me feel refreshed and happy. Plus, I have gotten some nice compliments on this. A million thumbs up for this one. Plus, I love the name "peony apple".. So cute!
La Senza's shimmer body mist I don't use that often because my day-to-day life doesn't require me to be shimmerized. I like using this product in the summer time or for weddings because it has shimmer that isn't excessive. The scent is beautiful and the light reflects the shimmer which makes you have an awesome glowy-ness when you are all dressed up. I would use this product either outside or in a giant room where you stand in the middle..lol.. Only because you don't want your clothes to be shimmery..haha.. All in all, a good product for a more glamourized look.
Ok, the last but not least, and my ALL TIME FAVORITE.. The Victoria Secret "heavenly" by the dream angles line. I got this with a gift certificate from my amazing aunt,uncle and cousins for x-mas. This scent isn't fruity, it more purfume-y, but just like the label read...heavenly! I use this everyday! Like maybe 5 times a day. I think I am obsessed with this body spray. I decided to get this body spray instead of the purfume because it's lighter. Sometimes I find with purfume, people spritz on way too much to the point that I get a headache. I love that you don't need much of this. I've had this since boxing day and I still have so much left. This body spritz is just amazing. I give 10 fingers and toes up for this spray. It has such a warm scent, and can be used for all ages. VS also has a tiny sample bottle for a 1/3 of the price. I think the giant bottle I have is like $19.99 or somewhere around there, but the little bottle I think is $7 or $8, maybe less.
Now. Moving on to my CLW body moisturizers. I have extreme sensitive skin, like gross sensitive. I can't really use shower gel because I just break out with rashes.. I know.. GROSS! Anyhow, over much testing with free samples and gifts, I have found these moisturizers aside from the perfume free, dye free ones that I have, are the best out there that melt into my skin without harsh reactions.
Left - La Senza Beauty Rush "Punchside"
Middle Top - The Healing Garden "Jasmine scent" Body Whip
Middle Bottom - Mark "Berry Cranberry" Body Butter
Right - Victoria Secret "Love Spell"
All of these moisturizers are incredible. They are scented just perfectly and I switch them up and use a different one everyday. Sometimes I find moisturizers a little heavy, so I just add a tiny bit of water to my moisturizer so I don't need very much. "The beauty Rush" and "Love Spell" I use mid-section, butt and legs, it's a little too powerful of a scent to use all over, The healing garden's "Jasmine" I use only on my legs becasue I find it give awesome moisture because my legs are incredibly dry, I mean scale-like dry. One of my bestie girls, Amanda gave this to me as a gift, so this is my second bottle of it. Love her! So I love this one on my legs and feet. The Mark "Berry Cranberry" body butter is the only one I use on my entire body. I love that the smell isn't over-powering and my skin just craves it. I also find that when I sweat at the gym, it doesn't run off my body like others do. I got this gift from BF's family and I can't get enough of it. Mark has a great line of products. Lauren Conrad is the spokes woman for that line. I don't know if she actually uses it, but the line is awesome. I recently just bough a lip gloss from Mark and I love it!
So these are my besties for moisture and scent. I love them all. If anyone has any favorites that you love, leave me a comment or visit my formspring page at www.formspring.com/colbyavery and tell me! Also, if anyone has any good products for sensitive skin that they love, please please please tell me. I'm always looking!
Alrighty, time for another dosage of drops and a rest for me. I am debating whether to go to the gym. I am getting restless that I haven't been for so long. I am however, going to take puppy for a nice walk. It's sunny, sweater weather and I need to get the mail anyway and get out of the house.
Hope everyone has a good day!

Again, this is a hobbie for me, and my own opinions on stuff I love, so if you don't love any of my product reviews, that's totally ok. Products for one person, maybe not be the product for another.
