You might enjoy shopping more if you stopped “just looking”
In a marketing course I was taking, the instructor talked about meeting customer needs. Customers are dissatisfied when products don’t meet their needs and wants, but often they don’t really know what they really need and want. The thing I took away from that?

Thoughts on the Water Drench sunscreen from Peter Thomas Roth
I sampled the Water Drench moisturizer from Peter Thomas Roth and was pleasantly surprised. The obvious deduction I made from that was that I would love the sunscreen version.

A quick to the point review of Orpheon by Diptyque
Orpheon by Diptyque smelled floral and powdery to me. If I were to imagine it as a piece of clothing, I am calling to mind a button-up white cotton blouse with puffed short sleeves.

Jo Malone’s Myrrh and Tonka cologne intense lives up to the name
Intense. I took that with a grain of salt given the way I have heard many a fragrance review talk about Jo Malone fragrances. “They don’t last,” they say. So, I thought nothing of spraying on the sample of their Myrrh and Tonka intense cologne. As soon as the spray hit my skin, I feared…
