There is nothing like a relaxing bubble bath! Let’s face it, whether you work full time, are a full time Mommy or you are just plain stressed out-a bubble bath is your ticket to relaxation! For me, I need the perfect fragrance in my tub in order to create the perfect, relaxing bubble bath. Thankfully Laura Mercier’s line of foaming honey bath products offers the ultimate, fragrant bubble bath! Love it!

Fresh Fig Honey by Laura Mercier offers a sweet fruity-wood fragrance experience which is perfect for the cool autumn weather. The sweet scent of apricot combined with ylang-ylang starts the fragrance experience off with an invigorating, eye opening scent. After the fruity floral scent settles down the warm, woody gourmand base rises up and creates a cozy, relaxing fragrance experience throughout your bath. Loved it!

Fragrance notes: Apricot Nectar, Ylang-Ylang, rich Vanilla, exotic Sandalwood and Fig Musk.

What I love about Laura Mercier’s Fresh Fig Honey bath is how luxurious the foaming bath experience is. Laura Mercier’s Fresh Fig Honey bath offers rich bubbles which not only offer an amazing fragrance experience; they don’t pop half-way through your bath! In addition, they work like soap so I am squeaky-clean after my bubble bath! Love that!

I highly recommend Laura Mercier Fresh Fig Honey bath for the ultimate, luxurious and fragrant bubble bath. I am also a huge fan of Laura Mercier’s foaming honey bath in Ambre Vanille, crème brulee and coconut milk. Yum!

Laura Mercier’s Fresh Fig Honey bath is priced at $40 and can be found online here.

Dolce and Gabbana Light Blue eau de toilette is a fresh and crisp fragrance perfect for transitioning from summer into fall. As we leave summer behind and move into the autumn months, the weather is still warm; sometimes reaching 90 degrees. Dolce and Gabbana Light Blue is perfect for warm weather and offers a reminiscent vibe of the summer vacation we left behind.

Light Blue by Dolce and Gabbana combines fragrance notes of citron, lemon, bluebell, Granny Smith apple, jasmine, rose, bamboo, cedar wood, amber and musk. This combination of crisp summer top and heart notes combined with warm, autumn base notes creates the perfect fragrance experience throughout the day. While the sun rises and heats up the day, Light Blue by Dolce and Gabbana cycles through the citrus top notes and fruity-floral middle fragrance notes. At the end of the day when the fog rolls in from the ocean, the warm woody base warms up the evening. Love that!

Dolce and Gabbana Light Blue eau de toilette received five out of five stars from Bay Area Fashionista! 

Light Blue by Dolce and Gabbana can be found in three sizes, .84oz, 1.6oz and 3.3oz. The line is priced from $48-$89 and can be found online here.

Molton Brown Indian Cress shampoo and conditioner review

 in Beauty / Fragrance / Hair Care  tagged molton brown / reviews by

Molton Brown is well loved for their fabulous line of bath & body products, candles and grooming products. As a longtime fan of Molton Brown’s Rose Granati hand lotion and hand soap, I was thrilled when Molton Brown sent me their line of Indian Cress shampoo and conditioner to test out.

I tend to have dry hair since I spend a lot of time outdoors in the sun and in the swimming pool. One of the biggest challenges I face is finding shampoo and conditioner for my weather-beaten, chlorine ridden hair. I also suffer from breakage due to my dry hair which loves to tangle up on me!

Molton Brown’s Indian Cress shampoo and conditioner smells amazing in the bottle. The combination of jasmine, honeysuckle and sandalwood creates a beautiful, woody floral fragrance experience for the shower. Love that!

I used Molton Brown’s Indian Cress shampoo and conditioner for ten days; washing and conditioning my hair every-day. After the first day I started to see an improvement in my hair! By the fourth day, my hair felt soft and looked shinier than I had seen it in years. By day ten, I felt like my hair was new. I was actually shocked at how soft, shiny and well-moisturized my hair was! This was definitely hair heaven J

I am really excited to use Molton Brown’s shampoo and conditioner every-day. When my Indian Cress bottles are used up, I plan on trying out the other fragrances in Molton Brown’s hair care line.
Molton Brown’s shampoo and conditioner are priced at $60 for the set. You can purchase Molton Brown’s hair care online here. Below are all my favorite products from Molton Brown. Hope you love them! Happy shopping, and stay fabulous
