By far my favorite movie. I’ve watched it several times, and I’ll keep watching. The story of Andy Dufresne, a good man sent to jail for a crime he had not committed and for 19 years didn’t lose hope to be a free man again. Who has never been in a situation where people are condemned unfairly? We live in a world where hope is so necessary to keep going.

Fresh, tart, and not too sweet, Zesty Lemon scrub has notes of fresh lemon zest along with a hint of juicy grapefruit. Subtle white musk notes anchor this refreshing scrub for a scent anyone will enjoy. The bright citrus notes make this the perfect scrub to keep in the kitchen for use after spring garden prep, or in your bathroom to help you embrace the morning.

My nose picks up the bright mix of grapefruit and lemon, and the grapefruit is actually the stronger note for me, which I wasn’t expecting. It’s a nice change for me though. Definitely a good pick me up scrub

Inspiration: InspiredAnchorman and milk being a bad choice to drink on a hot day

Description: Milk Was a Bad Choice is a home wax fragrance that is described as a milky vanilla base with hints of spice and coffee.

This is a nice wax choice for those who prefer milder scents that give a type of fragrance that you’d almost think was more natural in the house vs using wax. It’s calming and pleasant and not too much for those who prefer lighter scents.

Vanilla is the main scent – but it’s not a strong vanilla. Then there is a very light spice (almost like nutmeg, but not as strong?) and a very light hint of coffee. Yum

Inspiration: Inspired byPractical Magic

Inspiration: I am a product of growing up in the 70s and 80s. There was no shortage in great movies for our entertainment. To choose a famous movie quote between my two favourite directors’ movies, Lucas and Spielberg, I naturally gravitated to something on the Star Wars spectrum. Yoda is one of my favorite characters in the SW franchise. Even though he is a fictional character, he still represents the things that are important to me

Price: $12.50 | Cap: 100

Inspiration: Inspired byThe Sandlot!

Description: Da-Balmer is a cross between a balm and body butter. It’s creamy like a body butter but has a more emollient feel like a balm would. It’s an intensive treatment you can use anywhere (I love it on cuticles of course) but a little goes a long way. If you use too much – it will feel very oily (like a balm would) so start with a little and build up if you need more.

L7 Weenie scent is a house blend of pretzels, berries, cream, rum and agave.

My nose primarily picks up pretzel, but not just the salty snack type – more of the “i’m going to crush these up and add butter and make a pie crust from it” type pretzel scent. The berries are very faint and add a touch of sweetness. Definitely more of a bakery type scent to my nose, which was an unexpected surprise.

Price: $9.00 | Cap: 100

Inspiration: Inspired byThe Sandlot!

Description: You’re Dead Where You Stand is a denim blue crelly with orange to gold shifting shimmer and black flakes. I used 2 coats and a glossy top coat for these photos.

Description: Until The Very End is a black jelly base loaded with holographic red, gold, green and blue glitters as well as silver reflective glitter. I used 2 coats and a glossy top coat for these photos.

This is a thicker consistency so you might need polish thinner if you prefer thinner consistency. It’s still spreadable, but the reflects and glitter load makes it thicker.

Price: $12.75 | Cap: 150

Inspiration: Inspired byJacob and Bella’s motorbike hangout

Description: Bella! Where the hell have you been, Loca? is a turquoise jelly based linear holo with gold to red to orange shimmer flash with silver reflective glitter. I used 3 thin coats and a glossy top coat for these photos.

Description: Deluxe Vegan Cuticle Balm is a creamy and nourishing balm made with unrefined organic shea butter, skin loving oils and kosher non GMO soy wax. This is an intensive cuticle treatment and one I’ve been using for months in various scents. It’s incredible.

Warm Vanilla Sugar – warm, sweet vanilla with top notes of creamy coconut milk and rosewood, mid notes of gentle jasmine petals and caramelized vanilla sugar, with a base note of exotic amber musk.

Smells just like the BBW scent some of us grew up with (I think 50% of my school wore this..)

Price: $8.00 | Cap: 200

Inspiration: Inspired by Mean Girls

Description: Home wax fragrance described as: Decadent, buttered vanilla drizzled with caramelized brown sugar and just a whisper of almond.

This is a super rich bakery scent. My entire mailbox smelled of it for several days after I got it… and it wasn’t even hot out (mid to high 20 temps?)

Price: $5.00 | Cap: 130

Inspiration: Inspired byToy Story

Description: Double Bond is a ridge filling base coat and sticky base coat in 1. Best of both worlds. I also sometimes like wearing it alone cause it gives a healthy, sheer, milky look to the nails.

To Infinity & Beyond – A juicy, effervescent aroma containing just the right amount of juicy, fresh strawberries, tropical white peaches, succulent mango fruit, and rich vanilla beans.

My nose picks up the strawberries and white peaches immediately. Initially the berries are the dominant scent, but as it dries the peach scent becomes more apparent.

Price: $8.50 | Cap: None

Inspiration: Inspired byToy Story

Description: Fast & Hard is a super glossy quick dry top coat that can be applied over wet polish without issue. It also works over stamping, just make sure you float the top coat!
