Softsoap, you've done it again

The Molten Chocolate body wash I searched the globe for has a new shower buddy! This one is the new Softsoap Lemonade Berry Splash. (For once, I feel successful- I was able to find out about AND locate an amazing product while it's still new.)
This stuff is awesome. I should have expected nothing less after the mouthwatering delight of Molten Chocolate ( side note- the Walmart I went to also had the limited edition holiday Suave body washes in Candy Apple and whatever that Vanilla one was. I wasn't particularly taken with either of them, but if the Candy Apple is still there next time I go, I may have to scoop it up..just for the hell of it. It's less than $2, after all.)

Lemonade Berry Splash smells perfect for summer. What's funny is, to my nose, it smells not of lemons and strawberries (as depicted on the bottle) , but grapefruit. A fresh, just-picked, juicy grapefruit . It's delicious.
Here's a picture for ya! It's foggy because smart me forgot to take my camera out of the bathroom before I showered this morning.


                                           I just uploaded a fuckton of pictures on my laptop, so don't be surprised if my next couple posts are various looks with no apparent connection...there probably won't be one.

So...

I know I haven' posted in forever, and I'm sorry, but I'm, unfortunately, dealing with some REALLY STUPID PETTY IMMATURE SHIT  right now...I'm not going into detail, but I need to vent a little or my head will explode.
It has come to my attention that there have been people jumping to conclusions about a certain issue. I doubt either of the girls are reading this, but if they are, know this:
I don't know what you think went down, but I can say for sure that none of it was my fault. I cannot support a company that does not support their fans, and for you to not respond to my messages and act like I don't exist is NOT FAIR. I know in my heart, 100%, that I did nothing wring, and if you choose to not believe that, it's fine. It's sad, because I love the products, and I loved how close we all seemed to be, but I suppose that was just an illusion.

You will not be seeing anymore reviews about this company on my blog unless someone wants to come forward and explain to me what the hell is going on.

I hope to have some more reviews up here in the near future, but I can't make any promises.

It's finally mine...





I'm a major sucker when it comes to anything chocolate. So when I found out about Softsoap's Molten Chocolate body wash, I knew it had to be mine. Of course, it's just my luck to find out about amazing stuff wayyyyy late in the game, so by the time I decided I needed this particular product, it was already gone from shelves. I checked multiple Wal Marts, Target, Publix, CVS...I even hit Big Lots...No luck.
Last night, the bf and I went to a Wal Mart Neighborhood market to do a little grocery shopping. While there, I decided to look for the new Schick Razor (name's not coming to mind right now, but it does come with a free travel shave cream, and I have a $5 off coupon. Alas, this has been nowhere to be found yet, either...but at least I know it's new,haha)
The razors were in the same aisle as the body washes, so of course I had to scan the shelves...and there-sitting next to the Softsoap scents that are available everywhere- was Molten Chocolate. RighttheretwoinchesawayfrommyfacescreamingTAKEMEHOME. RIGHT THERE. One bottle.
I felt like a kid on Christmas morning. Seriously, if you haven't tried this, you're missing out. It's liquified heaven. Like someone bottled hot chocolate and stuck it in the body wash aisle accidentally. And I'm happy to report that the smell lingers once I'm done in the shower. It's already become one of my favorite body washes, and I've only used it once. ^_^
The bottle is 18 fl oz, so hopefully I can make it last until the next batch of holiday scents come out..I'll be damned if I miss out on any more of this Softsoap amazingness.

Pretty Addiction EOTD

well, EOY (yesterday,I guess, if you wanna get technical)
I haven't worn 25 Karat Gold in a long time, and haven't even touced Candy Corn since it's original swatching a few posts down...
Here's a look I did that incorporated both. I'm surprised at how well it turned out.

I've been racking up major hours at work these past couple weeks (37.5 this past week,whooohoo) so I apologize that these posts aren't super frequent...


I'm also looking for some more indie companies to try, if anyone has any suggestions for me, feel free to list them I did a search tonight, and I'll be damned if half the pages I looked up were closed, be it temporarily or for good.

Enjoy your evening/morning/whatever time you're currently reading this! <3

Swatch spam with Pretty Addictions

 These are from the new Pretty Addictions line called Shattered
Diamonds.

Left to right: Horns Over Halo, Kasalicious, Knockout, Bankrupt, Tequila Sunrise, Hooter Shooter, Psycho.
They all look pretty awesome in this picture, right? You ain't seen nothin' yet. Feast your eyes on this next picture, most notably Kasalicious:
LOOK AT IT. Every color of the rainbow is crammed in that baggie. Love.
I also have some shadow swatches for you:

Candy Corn, Bruised and Broken, Buried Treasure (currently unreleased shade) and Spoiled Bitch blush.
Spoiled Bitch is super pretty, I'm not normally a blush girl but will definitely be trying this baby out! Spoiled and Buried Treasure were free samples.

sad attempt at showing the sparkle in Buried Treasure.

Quick EOTD

I got a f*ckton of compliments on this look. And I can kinda see why- this blue is AWESOME. It's from the H2Blue collection made by the lovely Kim at Vixoden Cosmetics sent me as part of my promoter pack (I also got Humboldt, Orbits, Christmas in a Jar, and Banana-Rama, which are incredible as well. Swatches soon.)





I added a little extra sparkle wit Hard Candy's Showgirl glitter. The color on the bottom lash line is Buddah from the AMAZING Rainbow Collection. If you haven't made this collection your own yet, you really need to. The colors are breathtaking, and definitely not for the faint of heart. BTW, Kim is having a tax-return sale, and offering 45% off everything in the store with code TAXTIME.
Meaning you could pick up the 12 color Rainbow Collection for about $30, which is a hell of a deal.
Stop on over and tell Kim that Amber sent ya!
