Snowcake Soap ($6.95 for 3.5 oz.) is one of Lush's cult-favorite products that only comes around once a year (the holiday season or winter season, whichever you prefer!). Funny enough, Lush really does know how popular this product is--in their product description, they write, "If we didn't bring...
Does the winter change your skin at all? What changes? How do you cope?
Holiday Bubble Bar ($6.95 for 3.5 oz.) has a lovely spicy, cinnamon-y rose scent that really blooms once the product hits the water, rather than just sitting on your shelf. A huge plus to this holiday bubble bar is how awesomely it bubbles up your bathwater. Sometimes the amount of bubbles you get...
A Gold Star Bubble Bar ($6.25 for 3.5 oz.) is pretty when you look at it, and it has a strong lemony-citrus scent. It bubbles OK compared to other Lush bubble bars, and I personally found the scent to be just a little too reminscent of Sprite or 7-Up (the sweet lemon-lime flavor) to work for my...
LUSH Angels on Bare Skin Cleanser ($9.95 for 3.5 oz.) has been my go-to morning cleanser lately, because it's a mild exfoliating cleanser that's perfect for both sensitive skin and everyday use. If you're new to Lush, this might be a little more adventurous product type than other products they...
Zoya's 2008 Winter Collection is called Flourish and contains six excellent shades of polish perfect for the season. Zoya's formula is one of my favorites, because I always find their colors are rich and pigmented and two coats is always enough. Their Color Lock System is my go-to for keeping my nail...

What beauty items have made your holiday wish list? What would you most like to receive?
Can you believe this look is from mid-November?! I haven't had the time to do any makeup in at least a week, if not two. It's been deadline after deadline these past two weeks with projects, papers, and finals for me. Not even close to being done yet--still three finals to go! My deepest...
Essie's Winter 2008 Collection features six stunning shades of rich jewel-toned polishes. Each polish goes for $8, but you can snag all six as a set for $45. My favorites were Sexy Divide, a gorgeous, deep dark royal purple; and It's Genius for its softer, lighter magenta-purple tone. Essie...
MAC Flourish Lipstick ($22.00) on my lips! :) Oh yeah, Flourish is a lighter, pinker version of Queen's Sin. They're similar, but they aren't the same--Queen's Sin packs a lot more oomph and it's redder.
Green by Nature Banana Shea Body Butter ($11.99) is a tropical treat for your skin. It's 97.6% natural and 100% paraben free (you can see that right on the jar itself). Green by Nature is a brand where every product is 100% free of Parabens, Sulfates, DEA, petroleum, Propylene glycol, Sacchrine,...

As promised, here's a clear shot of Flourish lipstick! :) Flourish is the red lipstick, and pink lipstick is All Mine. Both of these are from MAC's Monogram collection and retail for $22. Below is a close-up shot of the actual MAC monogram--in case you missed it (I did the first few times...
