gud Red Rooby Groovy for any Ash Wednesday repenting

Oh hello Gorgeous! Valentine's day will be here shortly, but at the moment let's deal with the ever present fact that today is Ash Wednesday. You just may need to wash off all of the Fat Tuesday reverie that you imbibed in last night.

I really enjoy the Burt's Bees brand and this new leg of the company called "gud" is a fresh mix of great scents and healthy, natural body products with a lot of zing and zip in the scent category. I'm a fragrance junkie-so I love 'em!

You can get your "gud" at major retailers like Walmart and Target in a budget friendly price range of $7 a piece! So get your Valentine scent on and wash off all the Fat Tuesday/Mardi Gras mayhem with Red Ruby Groovy!







Natural Body Wash is scented with grapefruit, but also with wild thyme - for a little wild-card factor. ‘Cuz you’re a sweetie, not a sugar-coated sappy.

• A great citrus start to your day.
• Frothy foam to make you frolic.
• No parabens, phthalates or petrochemicals.
• Never ever tested on animals. No way!

The body lotion:
Lavish skin with the lively scent of grapefruit and wild thyme and discover that wild thyme isn’t just an ingredient, it’s a promise!

• Softens skin, then melts hearts.
• Grapefruity scent with a little grr-r.
• No parabens, phthalates or petrochemicals.
• Never ever tested on animals. No way!

Fat Tuesday: feast with GUESS GIRL the new fragrance

Hello Gorgeous!
Today is Fat Tuesday-a time of feasting before Ash Wednesday when repenting starts and is usually accompanied by 40 days of abstaining from something. I am saddened by the announcement that the Pope is stepping down from his post. You know, I could be Pope.

I'm qualified. Though my Latin is a bit rusty and I'm not too keen about living in Vatican city. Don't get me wrong-it's a beautiful place to visit, but not quite what I would call home.

So, for Fat Tuesday I have 2 product recommendations for you in two different posts-one now, and guess what, one later. First let's talk about my favorite and in my opinion ultimate accessory: fragrance.





 I have been playing with my sample and I must say, the dry down on me is a light, spicy floral scent with a hint of powder. According to the notes of the fragrance, this isn't the intended scent, but alas, I am eating a lot of asparagus and beets to train for an upcoming triathlon.

No matter-I really like the scent, it's light, it's for everyday, and of course I would definitely recommend it for your Fat Tuesday feasting and any Valentine's Day celebrations you may have too!

Now here's a bit from the company about the new Guess Girl scent:
###
The fragrance makes an entrance with a burst of sweet promise: innocent Raspberry Nectar, coy Melon, and intriguing Bergamot Mist. The flirtation continues with a tease of rare Brazilian Paradise Orchid, intoxicating Acacia Flower, and alluring Lily. Finally, it ensnares you with voluptuous Vanilla and indulgent Sandalwood, leaving an impression as lasting as lipstick on a pillowcase.



Top notes: Raspberry Nectar, Melon, Bergamot Mist
Middle Notes: Brazilian Paradise Orchid, Provence Acacia Flower, Lily
Base Notes: Australian Sandalwood, Madagascar Vanilla
