Thanks, Coastal Classic Creations. I enjoy smelling like a snow cone.
photo credit: GilmourCreative I ordered a small bag of trial size items from Coastal Classic Creations a few months ago. I have yet to actually review any of the products, but I did post about liking the trial size light to medium concealer while I was sunburned and on the beach with my family. I will eventually get around to posting thorough...
Linalool, friend or foe?

photo credit: miltedflower I mentioned linalool in my recent post about perfume, but I didn't really expound upon why it should be avoided because I hadn't done much research at that point (aside from the articles that I linked to in the post).

I've compiled a list of ten natural, green, and/or organic things that I wouldn't mind having. My birthday's in August.
