Quickie Review: Lavanila Forever Fragrance Oils in Pure Vanilla and Vanilla Grapefruit

Lavanila Laboratories Forever Fragrance Oil in Vanilla Grapefruit and Pure Vanilla

The Lavanila Forever Fragrance Oils Long-Lasting Roll-On’s in Vanilla Grapefruit and Pure Vanilla {sent for the purpose of review} are great to have for anytime of the year. They both have Vanilla as a key note which is great for all year round:  it’s warm and who doesn't love Vanilla?!? The Pure Vanilla fragrance is exactly what the name says it is-pure vanilla goodness.The Vanilla Grapefruit fragrance is great because it has a nice citrusy feel to it. Overall I love these two Fragrances and the upside of them being oils is they last a really long time-Peyton...

She basically decided that instead of continuing a subscription to a beauty box service, she'd use the money ($21) to build a core collection of products from MAC Cosmetics. I read about it and immediately asked if I could do it with her.
Here are the rules for the MAC Matters Makeup Challenge:

My Magazine Haul! How Shopping and Reading Magazines Goes Hand in Hand for Me!

I get A LOT of magazines every month and it drives the hubby crazy. One of the ways I get rid of them quickly is by flipping through them and tearing out all of the articles and ads that interest me so that I can focus on those and throw the bulk of the magazine away.
