scented body lotion for spring

Scented body location for spring 2022 from top left: honey vanilla body butter / sugar coconut body melt (love this one!) / Tahitian Manoi body butter (my current favorite!) / sugar coconut body butter / creme brulee body cream (another favorite of mine!) / sugar lemon body lotion /

Do you love fragrances as much as I do? Of course you do! One of the fun ways to wear fragrance, without using perfume, if through scented body lotion. In addition to fun scents, body lotion of great for keeping our skin hydrated and also to help slow down the aging process. Love that!

As you can tell from the scents I have chosen to feature, I love a good gourmand. When temperatures heat up, I gravitate towards coconut and citrus scents. So, while a good vanilla is my go-to during the cooler months, I switch things up and reach for coconut or citrus scents in warmer temperatures. That being said, I am currently addicted to Colleen Rothschild’s Tahitian Manoi. It’s slightly tropical, slightly sweet, and very smooth. I am not really sure how to describe it except to say-LOVE! So, if you are looking for a new scent, try Tahitian Manoi!

These are also my go-to brands when it comes to body cream. Laura Mercier, Lalicious, Colleen Rothschild, and Fresh offer non-greasy, non-drying, very, moisturizing body care products. If you are looking for a great cream, but a different scent than what I am featuring, these are the best brands for body care, in my opinion.

Spring 2022 fragrances from top left: floral gourmand (I own this and love it) / woody floral / classic floral / fruity floral (I own this and love it) / iconic Chanel N.5 floral (I own this and love it) / sweet floral /

Spring is all about renewal, which means it is time to renew our signature scent! Rose based florals are hotter than hot right now in the world of fragrance. This means we all need to gravitate towards a rose based floral scent; unless of course, you detest rose. If that is the case, Chanel N.5 might be the fragrance for you since the rose is undetectable.

Other than Chanel N.5 edp, the other five fragrances I am showcasing in this post are beautiful florals scents which each have their own personality. Do you like gourmand scents? Are you more into fruity fragrances? Which type of fragrance floats your boat? I have to say, I love a fabulous gourmand or a fruity floral. Those are my two favorites. Of course, I never shy away from a timeless scent from Chanel. I plan on purchasing something new this season, preferably a sweet floral. I already own a fruity floral and a floral gourmand. Love!

reve de chanel nail polish spring 2022 act II review

Chanel Reve de Chanel nail polish and beauty collection from top left: Chanel Onirique nail polish / Chanel Utopie nail polish / Chanel Evanescence nail polish / Chanel eye quad Imaginaire / Rouge Coco Flash Halo /

The Chanel Act II beauty collection for spring 2022 is here! Reve de Chanel is a feminine and flirty beauty collection which celebrates classic spring pastels in a fresh and fun way for the spring 2022 season. Love that!

There are three vivid pastel hues in the Reve de Chanel nail polish collection for late spring. Chanel Onirique is a sweet and pale pastel pink, perfect for the office or to wear as an understated neutral. If you prefer a more avant-garde look on your nails, Chanel Utopie is a soft orange cream hue which offers a vivid orange pastel; perfect to pair with a bright orange power suit this spring season! For those of us who like fun colors on our nails, the Reve de Chanel nail polish collection offers Chanel Evanescence nail polish which is a vivid lilac. It’s feminine, fun, and works well with all of the spring color palates we are seeing from designers. Love!

The three nail polish colors from the Reve de Chanel beauty collection are cream polishes. While they offer good color saturation with two coats, you might opt for three coats for a deeper hue which matches the bottle. I am showing all three nail polish colors with one base coat, and two coats of color.

So, without further ado, here are the three nail polish colors from the Reve de Chanel beauty collection for late spring 2022.

How pretty is this pastel orange hue for spring! Chanel Utopie nail polish reminds me of an orange creamsicle, and it offers a fun, vivid pastel hue for the spring season. If you like colors which push the envelope, this is your hue!

Chanel Onirique nail polish | Reve de Chanel spring 2022

Chanel Onirique nail polish is the perfect pale pink for daily wear. If you work in a professional environment, or you prefer timeless hues on your nails, this is your late spring nail polish. Although I show it with two coats of color, I would suggest using three coats for more color saturation. This color is so pale, you can see the tops of my nails through it with only two coats. Three coats would offer better coverage.

Chanel Evanescence nail polish | Reve de Chanel spring 2022

This is my favorite color from the Reve de Chanel nail polish collection! Isn’t it beautiful??? Chanel Evanescence is a vivid lilac color which mixes classic spring with a slightly edgy vibe. I love this color, plus, it looks fabulous with my bright blue power suit. Love that!

The Reve de Chanel beauty collection also offers a few new Rouge Coco lipstick hues as well as an eye quad and finishing powder. I needed a new eye quad for the new year, so I snapped up Imaginaire for the spring season. It offers four neutral hues which are easy to wear day or night. I also love this new lipstick hue, Halo. It’s a fun, sheer lilac which plays well with my bright blue power suit. I am all about this blue blazer right now!
