2 weeks

Hey everyone sorry I haven't been posting as much. I just got back from seeing my family in Cali and boy did we have a busy weekend. I will post all about it when I get back in two weeks. If you didn't already know I am a 2LT in the ARMY and I have to go on AT (annual training) for two weeks. I can't say where but it will definitely be worth the wait. I will post some beautiful pictures when I get back. Thank you for following and showing me love. See you guys soon. Keep me in your prayers.

Moonlight Magic

Last summer BBW came out with special edition fragrances that were discontinued. My Tia gave me one of the scents last summer that I just fell in love with. I was so bummed when I found out they no longer carried it. I loved it so much that I held on to the travel size lotion for as long as I could. When I went on base to buy some essentials I happened to wander into the body area of the store. I could not believe my eyes when I spotted my beloved discontinued fragrance. I had to buy it and for the price I was getting it at I couldn't pass it up. I later found out that they brought Moonlight Magic but they called it something else. We now know this fragrance as Secret Wonderland. The packing is so groovy! It reminds me of the 70s.

Package

REVIEW: This scent has a mix of berry and flowers. It says that it is inspired by BBW scent moonlight path but to me they dont smell alike at all. I personally cant stand moonlight path but Moonlight Magic has the most wonderful scent. I wouldnt really consider it a summery fragrance because it does have a musky flowery scent. When I say that it has a mix of berry and flowers I refer to blueberries/blackberries and deep rich flowers. This scent is great for summer nights and I would even wear it in the fall. I dont like wearing this in the day because it doesnt give me that summer sweet smell that I need but at night this scent is perfect. I cant tell you enough about how much I love this scent. If you want to get a dupe of this scent since it is no longer avaibale then check out Secret Wonderland. Unfortunately I never got to get a hold of the shower gel and I no longer have the travel size lotion but what I can tell you about it is that it was just as lovely as the Perfume.

The Citrus Collection

I finally was able to go to the BBW SAS today! I was in heaven! There were so many great deals going on that I  was able to take advantage up. I'm kind of upset that I didn't get more :( even thought I know I got plenty. I went with my husband who was kind of in a hurry so I wasn't able to really look at everything and calculate everything right. Now that I have been able to look at my receipt I want more! The prices were beyond cheap. I don't have all the product that I purchased at the SAS because I left it in my husbands car and he is off at work. So what I decided to do was share with you guys the new Citrus Collection that comes out July 4th. Currently they are offering the 2 oz. travel size lotions for just $1 each. This collection includes (from left to right) Apple Blossom Citrus, Pomegranate Citrus, and Peach Citrus.

REVIEW:  Apple Blossom Citrus is a mix of fruity floral scent. If you have ever smelled cherry blossom from BBW then you will agree that it smells just like that but with a hint of apple. It is a very soft sweet scent that makes you feel so clean. Pomegranate Citrus is sweet and sensual. While the pomegranate does come out very sweet it has a little musk that controls the sweetness. It is very tart and has a beautiful exotic flower scent. Peach Citrus is a mix of peach and orange. This scent does not have that strong smell like the other two. Its very light and soft. This scent is not comparable to any other scent I have smelled before. The fruitiness is not overwhelming and the peach is just lovely. OVERALL: These scents are very fruity, sweet, and tart. They are all pleasant to those who enjoy sweet floral fruity scents. If you do not like sweet, fruit, or floral then you will not enjoy these scents. Do not let people fool you and say that the pomegranate doesn't smell good because the scent because much better once applied on. This line does not come out until 4th of July so I can not review the spray or gel but the lotions scream summer and are something to look out for.
