Bath & Body Works 90's Scents Relaunch



If you're around my age, then you remember slathering on Bath & Body Works as a tween/teen. More specifically Country Apple, Pearberry, and Cucumber Melon. Soooo I was EXTREMELY excited for the relaunch of these awesome 90's scents!!

Imagine my disappointment when I stocked up and then discovered that the staying power is awful on the Country Apple!! I still have an old bottle of Country Apple body spray that stays on longer, and is more potent!! I am so sad!!! I have to reapply the product about 4 times a day!! That is ridiculous. What ever happened to quality? The whole point of having scented lotions, creams, and body sprays is not having to continuously apply them. I layer all four and still... 2 hours later, it's gone!

I bought two of everything in these scents:

Pearberry
Plumeria
Country Apple
Cucumber Melon
Peach Bellini

I can't speak for the staying power of those other four, but if this Country Apple is any indication of the quality they put out for this limited line, then BOO. Boo on you BBW.

This just sucks. 90's flashback RUINED! Sad face.

NYC Big Bold Angel Lash and Big Bold Precise Liquid Liner!!!


I received NYC Big Bold Angel Lash and Big Bold Precise Liquid Liner from Inlfuenster to test and boy am I glad I got these! I love them!!! The mascara hasn't flaked on me at all and I have REALLY long lashes. 




Big Bold Precise Liquid Liner:


Let me start by saying I HATE liquid liner. I use pencil or gel because of the control I have over the size of the line. This liner is not bad AT ALL. It is really hard to mess up with the felt tip. It resembles a highlighter and you can control the width of your line just like a highlighter. I know that's a funny comparison but hey, it works.

The only problem I had was after curling my lashes, it rubbed off a bit. I'd like a better staying liner, especially since my eyes water a lot due to allergies... I don't want my liner to budge!!




Big Bold Angel Lash:


I love that it doesn't clump. It's hard to find a mascara that adds volume without clumping. I am that girl who has 20 different mascaras because I am constantly searching for the perfect one. This one comes close! When I run out I'll be purchasing this. 

I also love the big brush. It coats every lash easily. It's fine for bottom lashes too. It's a big bottle for the price (0.40 oz) so definitely worth buying. Again, I hate clumpy lashes so this is perfect for me. NYC has come a long way since my teenage years. Thanks again Influenster and NYC!!!

Earth Balance Vegan Butter!!!

I was pretty hesitant to try this. I looked at it and was like, "Vegan butter??!?! What the heck?" lol. This is soooo good for vegan butter! 

I use it for EVERYTHING. I toss all of my veggies in 1 Tbsp of this. Asparagus, eggs, carrots, broccoli, rutabaga, turnips, red potatoes, spinach, toast. The list goes on! I absolutely love it and have nothing bad to say. I just bought another tub! I will be buying this from now on. Thank you +Influenster !!
