Victoria Secret Beauty Products Haul and Review




Victoria Secret can be so alluring with their ton's of body sprays, lotions, perfumes, and glitter. I've decided that about 1/3 of their products are complete crap, 1/3 are great but way too overpriced, and the last 1/3 is just great :) So I went last weekend and picked up a few great things and one horrible thing that i'll tell ya about now.

So I got 3 pink products that were 3/$12 which at first i thought must smell bad but they acctually didn't.
Here's the first thing I picked out: Pink Body Mist in "Cucumber and Water Lilly"





Pink Body Mist in "Cucumber and Water Lilly"

Although it doesn't smell much like cucumber,It smells really fresh, and clean which are my favorite types of scents. Then i like flowery scents and lastly fruity.


This body spray is very long lasting compared to the Victoria Secret 'Secret Garden' Body sprays that we all have. I only spritz it once because it is somewhat strong, atleast to me. I find myself getting a light wiff of it throughout the day.








Pink body wash in 'Citrus and mint'
On the other hand, the next thing I picked out was the Pink body wash in 'Citrus and mint' at first wiff this reminded me of the Coconut Lime from Bath and Body Works but after actually using this, the smell completely changed.





Pink Body Wash in "Citrus&Mint"

The scent becomes putrid after you lather it up, definitely something I would never purchase again. They have other body wash scent's to pick from, so please yourself a favor and skip the "citrus&mint" collection.












Pink Sugar Scrub in "Vanilla and Shea Butter"

Love this Stuff!


Simply Great. Smells great, feels great. This stuff has a great consistency it comes out of the tube pretty thick, but ends up becoming smooth and after you wash it off it leaves your skin with a great vanilla scent, along with amazing smoothness.

This is the consistency:

Very Exfoliating






















Lastly my favorite purchase was the Love Spell Body Butter

It has an amazing scent of cherry blossoms, peach, and white jasmine.
Overall great product that has an awesome scent and is very moisturizing.



This stuff looks and feels like lavender colored whip cream:

Loose Eyeshadows: Love em or Hate em?


I usually absolutely hate loose eyeshadows with a passion. No matter what kind of base I use on my lids I always have bits and pieces of it on my cheek and that is just not okay. Recently I came across the Avon Smooth Minerals eyeshadow in midnight mauve and it's not only a gorgeous color but no fall out!!! I use it as a crease color and its not completely matte but doesn't have chunks of glitters in it either. It has just a beautiful sheen and can build up to a very light color to dark mauvy shade.



















The color looks dark & scary but it's very light at first swatch.








Here is the swatch:
