Molton Brown has always been on my list of brands to dive into because of their fun flavored shower gels, so I was quite excited to receive these hand creams! I'm a girl that always has a hand cream handy, and these have found a home in my bag all summer.
The Replenishing Hand Cream formula is a light and non-greasy one that definitely makes it to my top 10 list. (Maybe even my top 5!) I don't think the formula is rich enough for my destroyed, gross winter hands, but for spring and summer I think this formula is just right. This formula contains white truffle oil, which I think is quite an interesting choice for moisture.
The Orange & Bergamot scent is totally up my alley, being that bergamot is one of my favorite scents. The "orange" in this hand cream smells of orange blossom to me, and the pair make quite a nice combination. Molton Brown notes the inspiration for this as "London via Seville", which I can totally see.
Gingerlily, on the other hand, is a scent that I find quite difficult to describe. To me, it smells clean, vaguely reminiscent of scents like Dolce & Gabbana Light Blue or Armani Acqua di Gio, though quite different because there is also something floral/tropical about it! This one is noted as "London via Tahiti" and both of these now make me want to go on vacation! :D
I'm quite enjoying these hand creams this summer, and I'm curious to check out more of the range. Have you tried these or any other products from Molton Brown? I'd love to know!

I've been such a huge fan of Armani Eye Tints this year, so when I had the opportunity to try the new matte option, I was thrilled. I received these and a mascara from Influenster, and am loving these just as much as the original formula.
You're all probably aware of how much I love bronzer - after all, my blog is named after it! While I enjoy a good powder bronzer, I'm always very interested in trying cream versions. So as you can imagine, I definitely jumped when I had the opportunity to try Tata Harper's Matte Bronzer and Highlighter in this adorable kit.
I don't know about you, but I am definitely not ready to say goodbye to summer. The weather is cooling down, but the sun's still out and I'm holding on to every reminder of summer that I can grab on to. Thankfully, I have a whole stash of self tanners and the beautyblender Body to delay thinking about fall!
Over the last few years, my scalp has become increasingly sensitive and prone to itchiness. I've found that shampoo makes a big difference, and was excited to try the Philip B Anti-Flake II Shampoo!
Foundation sticks are one of those products I always want to buy, so you can imagine my excitement when I got the new Hourglass Vanish Foundation stick from Influenster. I enjoy Hourglass products in general, so I was pretty excited to try their new foundation stick!
Summer has really been heating up around here and lately I've been really enjoying this lightweight moisturizer from Tatcha. Intended for normal to combination skin types, this water gel moisturizer is the perfect product for hot summers!
I've always been a big fan of citrus scented products, so when I discovered that Molton Brown was releasing a fragrance in their Orange and Bergamot scent, I jumped at the chance to try it.
A few years ago, NARS released their Audacious Lipsticks and I finally tried them this past winter. I'm a bit lipstick obsessed, so I suppose I was avoiding these trying not to go crazy buying lipsticks... Yeah, that didn't work even if I managed to avoid these for a year or two!
I've been a big fan of the Surratt Beauty products I've tried, so when they launched a foundation this spring, I was immediately interested. Then I found out it was in a travel friendly tube with a foundation brush attached, and I just about died. Literally half my life is putting on foundation at a red light in an attempt to look vaguely presentable, so... It was like a dream come true. At any rate, I stalked swatches and ordered the foundation within a span of minutes.

I've been missing out on the matte lip trend, but they just haven't been my thing. My lips are often dry, and so many products can make my lips peel that I've just stayed away, but I couldn't not try these Bite Beauty Matte Creme Lip Crayons when I had the chance!
