Nice Cosmetic Scents

"Connyc" <connycl...@hotmail.com>
Sometimes I discover that cosmetics and toiletries have unexpectedly
pleasant scents. My two current favorites are:
Rimmel lipstick – rich fruity cherry smell.
Crabtree & Evelyn Gardener's Hand Therapy Cream – similar to their
jojoba products, very appealing clean, mellow fragrance.
What do YOU like?

Oh, wait! I forgot to mention a third fave:
BENETINT liquid cheek/lip stain – it's made from real rose petals and
has a true rose fragrance. Such a pleasure to use, and so pretty and
natural looking.

rose has been captured a lot in cosmetics.
anna sui has rose scented shadows, blushes and lipsticks.. it's really
pretty
chantecaille has an amazing mascara that's rose scented too

MAC's lipsticks, a hint of vanilla and much nicer than L'Oreal, Chanel,
and some of the other strong makeup–y scented brands. Eeek.
Ocean Potion Kids Sunblock scent is growing on me. It smells a bit like
a creamsicle and I thought it too sweet at first but like it more now.

I adore the scent of Annick Goutal cosmetics (their Creme Splendide
range). I'm sure that's why I buy it! It's the most incredible rose
scent with a real hit of fresh green added to the mix.
I also love the vanilla smell of Tarte double ended lipglosses and all
the scents in TheBalm lipglosses––– they are very foodie and smell
delicious!

What exactly is the smell in CG powder and foundation? I used some CG
loose powder and I was overwhelmed by the CG Clean makeup smell it has.
I don't really like the smell and had actually forgotten all about it.
Anyone else remember it's strong makeup–y smell?

Noxzema? Minty eucalyptus camphor I think.

I really love the smell of Borghese Fango Mud. I was so disappointed
when the Spa Cologne didn't really smell remotely like it.

I usually don't like a fragrance in my skincare/cosmetics but for some
reason I love Burt's Bees Carrot body moisturizer. I don't know what
it's supposed to smell like and going on it smells funny but after it
dries I really like it. Foody but not sure what exactly. The Burt's
Bees Almond hand balm is nice too, the texture even reminds me of
marzipan. I also love MACs Lipglass scent/flavour.
