Smell Like A New Woman Every Month

I'm a HUGE fan of fragrances, just watch my fragrance collection. The problem with this little addiction of mine, is that fragrances are expensive and what you think you like might not be what you like after a few days or in my case after wearing it out of the store.

Scent Bird is a monthly fragrance subscription service that has you answer a few quick questions and gives you a list of recommended fragrances for your personal tastes. AMAZING right?! I'm alway staring at all the beautiful bottles and wondering what will I really like? More importantly what will I really like in 3oz. at $100 later?

This month I was lucky enough to be introduced to Scent Bird and I tried out the unique experience of their website. The site guides you through a series of simple questions and then a selection of fragrances. You can rate the ones you've already tried. After the process your left with a much more manageable selection of high end fragrances to choose from.

After making your selection, Scent Bird sends you a sleek ampule of your fragrance for the month. It's definitely plenty to test out and make sure you like before purchasing, the best part is that the fragrance is removable and you can switch it out with other Scent Bird fragrances sent to you.

For me this is a great way to try fragrances before committing to a full bottle or to be fun and change up my scent every month.

Stay tuned on my channel for more updates on how I'm enjoying my fragrance this month Juicy Couture Viva La Juicy and more about Scent Bird.

If you'd like to try out Scent Bird yourself, they have been kind enough to extend a discount code for my readers & viewers. Use BIRD50 at checkout to receive 50% off your first month! That's only $7.50 for your fragrance and travel case!!! Most roller balls are 3X that!

July Favorites

Every month the beauty community rally up their beauty favorites to share with the world. As I gather my own collection of favorites to film and upload on youtube, I can't get this overwhelming sensation of how fast time is just passing me by.

All of July's Makeup Favorites, which I use in a very wearable makeup tutorial in My July Favorites and Tutorial Video on Youtube

Summer is almost over and everyone is already on the back to school craze, I AM NOT READY. This brings me back the the anxiety of auditioning for Christmas commercials in summer. If you don't know, because of production turnaround, most commercials, films, and television shows are filmed months in advance. So odds are summer beach bikini commercials are filmed in the dead of winter on a freezing beach and fun festive winter holiday commercials are filmed in the hottest months in summer with fake snow and LOTS of winter gear in the hottest months. It's crazy and uncomfortable.

It seriously freaks me out to keep thinking a season ahead. I want to savor today and live in the moment. of course I will think of future plans, wants, needs, and goals, but somehow these monthly favorites bring me a bit of anxiety.

So without further a due... here are my monthly favorites in video form and in pretty pictures. The "pretty" may be lacking on the pictures, since my uncle just left me a camera that I'm trying to figure out. So while I have finally figured out how to use my Canon Rebel T5i for filming my youtube videos, I'm now trying to learn an outdated Sony DSLR for my blog photos. Bare with me.

For details on the products and how I use them please watch my video.
