Smitten - Hand Cream from LUSH.
Remember the Holiday Soap "Snowcake"? The one that smells like almond icing.. well it's a favorite of mine, even stocked up on it last december!
Well it was so loved that they decided to create a matching hand cream.. (available year-round = yes)!
I love trying new hand creams all the time and finding a new favorite.
This one goes into my top favorites, I can't wait to use it during the holidays.
It's very creamy & whipped.. makes your hands super soft and absorbs well into your skin, not greasy at all.
Perfect before bedtime cream.

This has been one of my most favorite fragrances from a few months now.
It's titled "Big Pink Bow by Hello Kitty".
The bottle is the cutest and it matches the scent well!
A sweet juicy fragrance with many of my favorite notes in this one!

It describes itself as (from Sephora.com):
The always sweet, always bright, and always delightful Hello Kitty wouldn’t dare leave the house without her signature fruity and floral accessory—Big Pink Bow. Let the delicious blend of juicy pineapple, pink honeysuckle, tantalizing gardenia, fresh coconut, and warm vanilla charm its way into becoming your new favorite accessory, too. 

Notes:
Frangipani, Juicy Pineapple, Gardenia, Pink Honeysuckle, TiareFlower, Coconut Water, Vanilla, Kissed Skin Accord.

A facial treatment to address uneven skintone and dark spots while improving skin quality for a brighter, more luminous complexion.

G-Dragon has just released his music video for new single "CRAYON".
This is the second single from his album "ONE OF A KIND".
"CRAYON" is very colorful like a box of crayons, visually appealing and very fun!
It is co-produced and co-written by YG Entertainment's representative producer Teddy and G-Dragon himself.
Also did you know the CRAYON the title for this track is taken from the combination of two words.. CRAZY + G-DRAGON. The song is said to represent a G-Dragon who is crazed about an unspecified thing, and is expected to showcase his unique color.
This is what I like about GD, he is always changing up his look!

Check out the crazy music video below:

This is a new new fragrance from Lancome.
It's titled "La vie est belle".
I adore this scent and the bottle! It's a very light sweet and free scent.
It's a very original fragrance too, because I can't think of another one that smells like this!

It describes itself as (from Sephora.com):
La vie est belle or life is beautiful—the expression of a new era. It represents a choice; the choice to break free from convention, the choice to create your own path to happiness. La vie est belle introduces a new olfactive story, the first ever iris gourmand. 

The juice is made with the most precious natural ingredients, a modern interpretation of an oriental fragrance with a twist of gourmand. It entwines the elegance of iris with the strength of patchouli and the sweetness of a gourmand blend for an incredible scent with depth and complexity. 

Notes:
Iris, Patchouli, Gourmand. 
Style:
Free. Happy. Deep.


Be sure to check out this fragrance at your local Beauty Counter.
Be on the lookout soon for more "I Love It Perfume" posts on my favorite fragrances! :)

OPI Launches the Germany Collection for Fall/Winter 2012:
First read the Press Release Below and then my thoughts on this Germany Collection.

Press Release:
OPI embraces runway trends with the Germany Collection for Fall/Winter 2012. Drawing inspiration from Berlin, an exciting new fashion hub that blends classic looks with the avant-garde, the collection’s twelve shades offer a mixture of vibrant color, urban-chic neutrals, and reds in variations from light to dark.

“Designers showcased rich colors and striking textures for fall,” explains Suzi Weiss-Fischmann, OPI Executive VP & Artistic Director. “The Germany Collection beautifully complements these looks, with standout shades in various hues of red and burgundy – the season’s ‘new black.’ Sapphire, black olive and lime yellow are married with creamy neutrals in honey, taupe and nude rose.”

“The overall feel of the Germany Collection is elegance with an edge,” adds Suzi. “The varied palette of colors adds another accent to the list of special touches – think beadwork, paneling, fur and embroidery – that walked the runways during New York Fashion Week. Wearing these shades on fingers and toes is a great way to accessorize a range of looks for the season.”

Germany by OPI includes the following shades:
Don’t Pretzel My Buttons A haute honey-beige that can always make you smile. 
My Very First Knockwurst …and what a magical rosy-nude rendezvous it was!
Berlin There Done That A traveling taupe that’s seen it all. (Yep, that too).
Don’t Talk Bach to Me There’s nothing mellow about this sassy lime-yellow!
Nein! Nein! Nein! OK Fine! A bodacious black-olive? We say “Ja! Ja! Ja!” 
Unfor-greta-bly Blue Everyone’s favorite Fräulein loves this über shiny blue.                                   Every Month is Oktoberfest Prost! Here’s to the prettiest plum in the Biergarten. 
Suzi & the 7 Düsseldorfs The most beautiful bright purple of all. 
Deutsch You Want Me Baby? A self-assured shade of shimmering red-orange. 
Danke-Shiny Red You “Bitte” try on this ravishing ruby before it’s too late! 
German-icure by OPI The best burgundy shimmer in the business. 
Schnapps Out of It! Shake off the blues with a shot of fall’s must-have mauve!

Germany Collection nail lacquer shades contain no DBP, Toluene, or Formaldehyde, and feature OPI’s exclusive ProWide™ Brush for the ultimate in application.
-----
I'm just picturing all the outfits I would wear with each one in my head right now. The colors look great.
Very suitable for Fall/Winter.
I tried out these 5 shades:
* Every Month is Oktoberfest - Create a dark and tempting look with this luscious plum.
* My Very First Knockwurst - Feel airy and romantic is this rosy-nude shade.
* Suzi & the 7 Düsseldorfs - Super space galaxy rich and magical purple.
* Don’t Talk Bach to Me - Sassiness brings in this lime-yellow.
* Deutsch You Want Me Baby? - A powering shimmery red-orange which screams fall.

My favorite shades would be, "Every Month is Oktoberfest", & "Suzi & the 7 Düsseldorfs".
What I love about OPI is their nail polishes are free of many harsh ingredients and they apply so easily and pure.
Check out a swatch panel at the top of the post for a look of all the shades I tried out!


Germany by OPI will be available August 8, 2012, at Professional Salons and Spas for $9.95 CAN suggested retail for each Nail Lacquer.
