Mally Beauty High Shine Liquid Lipsticks

Although it may be too late to have at your door in time for Christmas gift giving, you might have want to treat yourself with that gift of holiday cash to some wonderful Mally Beauty High Shine Liquid Lipsticks. 

These are one of the best lip glosses ever that come in a pen form that you twist from one end for the color to flow to the brush.  Trust me, but you need to have these because they are so luxurious and the perfect way to glam it up.

Here's my take on the two I received for this review.  Mally's Look is a tender pink-nude while Heartbreaker will give your lips a slick of a sheer coat of ravishing red. Both choices from light to the more vivid are rich glosses with ample color and spectacular shine.  

In the photo, Mally's Look is on top and Heartbreaker is at the bottom.

Here I am modeling Mally's Look.

This is Heartbreaker.

One thing that I want to mention is how extremely moisturizing these liquid lipsticks are with a creamy feel and almost a fruity taste. 

I also thought the vinyl like shine was gorgeous and they seemed to wear well for as long as five hours while staying within your lip line. 

Of course, the texture is ideal and the formula feels lightweight against your lips, which is another plus. 

Here is what these Mally Beauty High Shine Liquid Lipsticks look opened.

Honestly, I intend on picking more shades up.  In fact, you can buy Mally Beauty High Shine Liquid Lipsticks for $20 each or take advantage while it's available of the Slimline High Shine Liquid Library of ten in smaller sizes (0.04 oz.) for $44!  I know I can't resist a deal like that and sampling all those fabulous colors at such a reasonable price.  This is the perfect way to find the shades most flattering to you.

Nielsen-Massey Pure Vanillas & Assorted Extracts Review + Giveaway!--Ends December 31, 2012

**Disclaimer:  This post has been compensated through a free product (s) or monetary payment.  Opinions are solely mine. All links are "no-follow" links.**

Pure extracts  like the Nielsen-Massey ones above make all the difference in your baking.

Holiday baking calls for special blends of pure extracts and extra flavorful exotic vanillas like the ones I was sent from Nielsen-Massey Vanillas when hoping to create memorable treats to share with family and friends.  This year, I am pleased to be working with them again with a review and giveaway of five of their extraordinary extracts.

Tahitian Pure Vanilla Extract is cherry-vanilla decadence.

Madagascar Bourbon Pure Vanilla Extract gives vanilla a hearty kick.

Mexican Pure Vanilla Extract is a clove type of spicy, woody vanilla that gives an instant flavor boost.

Pure Almond Extract is sweet and nutty.

Pure Orange Extract is a power-packed dose of orange.

And if have never tried any of those world-famous Nielsen-Massey Vanillas, then you also will be pleased to know a tablespoon of any of those pure vanilla extracts are equivalent to one vanilla bean.

You'll really love how much more heightened the flavor of using pure extracts over any imitation ones will be once you try and compare.   The result of what you bake or cook is almost indescribable for bringing some tasty magic to the same recipes like the my Decadent Tahitian Brownie Pie that I will be sharing tomorrow so be ready! 

Honestly, you really can taste a huge difference with any of the pure extracts and vanillas from Nielsen-Massey Vanillas.  If you too want to look like a culinary star for the holidays, I recommend visiting their website for more information or finding where to buy.

Thymes Moonflower Cologne Spray Review

**Disclaimer:  This post has been compensated through a free product (s) or monetary payment.  Opinions are solely mine. All links are "no-follow" links.**

Thymes Moonflower Cologne Spray

Being a perfumista, I have a deep appreciation for the beauty of fragrances and the feelings they can evoke.  Thymes, the creative collaborative in Minneapolis, Minnesota, shares this same passion from their endless quest to create fragrances that can move you through their unique line of scented products from perfumes, lotions, home fragrances, bath washes, bubble baths, candles to colognes.

One fragrance that I recently was sent  to review caught my attention in particular for how it slowly unfolds to taunt and seductively bloom with its exotic dark allure.   Moonflower Cologne Spray is the mysterious and haunting woody-floral you might want to take a close look at. 

Sensual and yet sultry, this scent can mesmerize those caught up in its spell practically on the spot with delicate floral and sugar quince, warming against a tempting backdrop of cinnamon, clove, myrtle leaves until that spicy-sweetness smolders with rich mahogany, dark amber and warm cognac to leave a lasting, glimmering impression.  

Those that hate heavy spicy scents would love the undeniable, sophisticated softness of Moonflower Cologne. 

In my opinion, this fragrance would make a wonderful holiday gift especially for those seeking a new oriental type of scent that is elegant as well as light and romantic. 

Do pick a bottle up and check the entire Moonflower collection for other tempting scented options because once you experience it, you will fall in love with this fragrance just as much as I did!

Hair Products Pro's Karmin Salon Pro Clipless Tourmaline Curling Iron Review

**Disclaimer:  This post has been compensated through a free product (s) or monetary payment.  Opinions are solely mine. All links are "no-follow" links.**

Hair Products Pro's Karmin Salon Pro Clipless Tourmaline Curling Iron

I would be devastated without a reliable curling iron.  However, I only have used irons that grab onto the hair and hold it in place as you curl unlike the Karmin Salon Pro Clipless Tourmaline Curling Iron from Hair Products Pro  that I was sent for this review.  

At first, I was not sure of how that design would work to produce those becoming spiral-type of curls.  However, you simply grab a section of hair and wrap  it around the barrel to style.  You might be surprised that even those with shorter hair like mine of medium length can do great things with a little practice.

I couldn't believe the amount of glossy curls that I landed up once I started to get the hang of winding my hair around this curling iron due to its ultra polished tourmaline ceramic barrel.   The curls held up wonderfully throughout my day without ever drooping, which also excited me. 

Nor could I believe how much faster this iron was to get your head styled in less time than a traditional curling iron.  

This Karmin Salon Pro Clipless Tourmaline Curling Iron is everything you could have ever hoped for.  It comes with a tapered barrel that goes from 1/2" to 1" for helping you get different size curls.  

Hair Products Pro's Karmin Salon Pro Clipless Tourmaline Curling Iron

This tool heats up faster than any of my other curling irons that I have used in the past due to the 410F (210C) temperature control so it can work for all hair textures. 

You'll also like how that zippered case this curling iron comes with is made to use the cover of the bag  lso a heat mat.  This is so handy in case you need to rest it while you work.

Seriously, I never thought with my length of hair that I could get such a sexy look with these twisted curls and now I have it.   I just love my new curling iron for helping me accomplish that!

If you're looking for a great holiday gift, I know any woman would welcome this curling iron with a passion for the hair help it can provide.  Hair Products Pro regularly sells the Karmin Salon Pro Clipless Tourmaline Curling Iron for $159.95 but now has it listed for $129.95 with FREE SHIPPING WORLDWIDE.

Hair Product Pro's Karmin G3 Salon Pro Tourmaline Ceramic Hair Styling Iron Review

**Disclaimer:  This post has been compensated through a free product (s) or monetary payment.  Opinions are solely mine. All links are "no-follow" links.**

Hair Product Pro's Karmin G3  Salon Pro Tourmaline Ceramic Hair Styling Iron 

Natural curls and waves can be considered both a blessing and a curse.  At times, they can limit your hair styles.  However, I had the opportunity to try the Karmin G3 Salon Pro Tourmaline Ceramic Hair Styling Iron from Hair Products Pro for this review.  Shortly, I discovered how to achieve total hair freedom to flatten, curl or flip those locks the way you have always hoped.

This Karmin G3 Salon Pro Hair Tourmaline Ceramic Styling Iron is top of the line quality with ceramic plates instead of any coating, making it more durable besides being safer with drop safe technology and a sleep mode that shuts off automatically after an hour.

It also has adjustable temperatures (176 degrees F to 460 degrees F) so it can work on all hair types and textures doing multiple tasks such as straightening, curling, or even adding volume besides helping deal with static using infrared heat and tourmaline's negative ions! 

The cord swivels to make it easier to handle and it can travel with you regardless of the country with worldwide voltage 100-240V so you can count of it without worrying about what to pack to style your hair. 

The company even gives you a zippered case to store your styling iron.  Look at the product as I hold it above with that case in the photo below.

At first, I was not sure of how this tool would work on my own head.  Nonetheless, the company has an excellent YouTube video instruction to help show a novice, such as yours truly, how to style with it.  This video had excellent tips on really doing some amazing tricks with this styling iron so do check this out.

Hair Product Pro's Karmin G3  Salon Pro Tourmaline Ceramic Hair Styling Iron

You may think that only those with long hair can benefit from this iron.  Wrong!  I have medium length hair and soon discovered the right technique to wrap my hair. 

The built in ceramic technology also left my hair softer and extra shiny from the company's ion field technology to seal in your hair's own natural oils and before long I found myself with straightened style that was more conditioned than before I used this styling iron.

Fickle as I may appear, I do like to show off my curls on other occasions.  Therefore, I further worked learning how to manuever my new Karmin G3 Salon Pro Tourmaline Ceramic Styling Iron until I mastered it with lots of amazing curl that kept up beautifully throughout the day without loosing shape.

I am thrilled with my new styling iron and wish that I would have tried one sooner.  I think the Karmin G3 Salon Pro Tourmaline Ceramic Hair Styling Iron from Hair Products Pro would make a fantastic holiday gift.  Usually, this styling iron retails for $300 but now can be had for $129.95 and that includes FREE shipping to any country!  This is a beautiful deal in my eyes and suggest you visit their website while this bargain price is available.

South Tex Organics Large Combo Citrus Gift Box Review + Giveaway!--Ends December 21, 2012

**Disclaimer:  This post has been compensated through a free product (s) or monetary payment.  Opinions are solely mine. All links are "no-follow" links.**

South Tex Organics

When you want to say you are important to me, I care about your health, I can't think of a more thoughtful way than sharing a gift of fresh organic citrus this holiday season with family, friends or employees. 

Last year, I discovered the amazing difference of South Tex Organics and their huge, sugary Rio Star grapefruits and juicy Marrs oranges.  This year, I am pleased to be working with them again with a review and giveaway of another large combo box  (#303) of 15 of the best tasting USDA certified organic grapefruit and 24 of their succulent oranges for another holiday review and giveaway.

I love South Tex Organics for quite a few reasons.  Their added concern for the health of the consumer is apparent since they grow their citrus naturally without the use of any pesticides, sprays, herbicides, and synthetic fertilizers.  Those methods can steal vitamin content and flavor from the citrus.  Research backs up that claim that organically grown produce has higher levels of vitamins than the conventional variety as well.

Buying decent looking citrus in my area can be challenging.  What I see in my  local grocery stores may be advertised as oranges or grapefruits but are hardly decent specimens worthy of consuming--at least in my opinion.  However, the large combo box from South Tex Organics was packaged with tender loving care and loaded with large appealing citrus and plenty of paper straw to ensure it stayed in excellent condition.  Furthermore, their citrus keeps a lot longer than what you may be used to if you ask me.

As to the taste, I can't begin to describe how delicious and extra sweet both the Marrs oranges or their Rio Star grapefruits are.  These beauties are so juicy and not dry in the least and bursting with incredible flavor.  Another thing I want to point out to other grapefruit fans is you can skip adding sugar to these.  Trust me, but it is not necessary.

Here's something else to be excited about is that you can use this chemical-free citrus peel for even more delicious ways in recipes like my yummy orange cake with orange creamy icing that I will be sharing with you shortly.  By the way, the USDA lists on their site that you get even more vitamin C from the peel than the orange besides calcium, potassium, and other minerals and vitamins like lots of B-6 so do grate and take advantage of yet another fantastic use.  

For those on your holiday shopping list that you have no idea what they want, you can't go wrong by giving them a South Tex Organics citrus box.  They come in all sizes and prices starting from $22 and up with combos of both grapefruit and orange or just one type.  Check here to order a box from their website.

Thanks to South Tex Organics, one lucky Nuts 4 Stuff reader in the United States wins a combo box like I received of 15 grapefruits and 24 oranges ($52 value)!

Let Your Complexion Bloom! Tammy Fender Bulgarian Rose Water Review

**Disclaimer:  This post has been compensated through a free product (s) or monetary payment.  Opinions are solely mine. All links are "no-follow" links.**

Tammy Fender Bulgarian Rose Water

I started my love affair with organic rose water while in college.   I discovered it gave my slightly oily complexion dewy freshness when I spritzed that really made a striking difference with or without a moisturizer or to set my makeup throughout a long day.   Though some years have passed and now my complexion is on the dry side, I never stopped using or believing in the beauty power behind rose water.  

When Tammy Fender's Bulgarian Rose Water unexpectedly arrived at my door, I was surprised but happy to have the chance to test this holistic skin care product out without any hesitation!  Although I have never tried any of the famed aesthetician's all natural line that started at her spa in Palm Beach with custom formulations to meet the needs of each skin type, I couldn't wait to get started.

The heavenly aroma of rose petals surrounds you even through the closed bottle.  And yet, this sweet scent is only just the beautiful beginning of what is ahead.  Now I could have just spritzed and refreshed my complexion on the spot, but I cleansed my face first and then sprayed some on a cotton ball before swiping over my still damp face.  Ah, the exquisite rose fragrance was aromatherapy in itself and left me with a blissful feeling while I dabbed to tone my skin.

Instantly, my complexion felt soothed and soft like velvet.  This extremely gentle product provided the perfect base once I applied my anti-aging serum and brought with it radiance and a bloom to my cheeks, which increased daily.  Whenever my skin felt extra dry or to refresh my makeup, I gave myself another fragrant treatment. 

If my face could talk, it would say I am happy--just look at me!  After all, you will be stealing the potent energy from a rose from what Tammy Fender's Bulgarian Rose Water will do for own face for keeping it moist, softer, and revitalized. 

Honestly, I have used countless bottles and brands of rose water.  In my opinion, this one is incredible.  You might call this face food to feed a hungry face that may be starving from dull, lackluster skin.   A 6.7 fl. oz. bottle retails for $65 and does go a long way.  

Try Tammy Fender's Bulgarian Rose Water for yourself or give one as a gift this holiday season and then you'll understand why I love it so!

Look Younger! Renee Taylor's face Love Tightening Serum Review

**Disclaimer:  This post has been compensated through a free product (s) or monetary payment.  Opinions are solely mine. All links are "no-follow" links.**

Renee Taylor's face Love Tightening Serum

Those that make their living in front of a camera depend on maintaining their best appearance possible.  Ask any actress or model what their special trick is and you might discover certain cosmetics, makeup tips, diet, or skin care products are what keeps them looking  beautiful and practically defy aging.   Actress, Renee Taylor, best known for her role as Sylvia Fine on the hit television comedy,  "The Nanny," is one such master now sharing her secret with the world.

Working together with Renee's personal makeup artist, Cindy Carol, the pair developed a product to instantly tighten facial lines for a more youthful appearance.  This firming serum is called face Love and I was asked to review it.

I don't have lots of deep wrinkles, but I do have two bad boys on the sides of my cheeks near my mouth. Therefore, I was game to test  Renee Taylor's face Love all right!  

According to the directions, you can use a drop or two on a freshly washed face or over makeup for anywhere on the face, eye area or neck.  Be sure your face dries completely first before applying the product.  I only needed a drop to do my entire face.  What I noticed was the serum did seem to chip away years while toning your face from what I was staring at in my mirror. 

The two deeper wrinkles that plagued me did tighten and the finer creases around my eyes disappeared.  However, I must have over applied on those two bigger wrinkles trying to finish what I had left on my finger because I noticed there was white caking in the area. 

Less is better when using this product.  Therefore, the next time I tried using, I only added what I needed and not layering.  This gave a much better look to my face. 

In fact, I also wanted to see the difference of how this product would work when applied over my makeup.  I gained a more natural look and preferred this method.  

The driving force behind this revolutionary instant face lift is a powerful anti-wrinkle peptide called acetyl hexapeptide.  And I must admit, but Renee Taylor's face Love does help you look younger quickly.  I don't know how long this wonderful improvement will last, but I think it's fantastic way to  feel better about yourself and aging.  I think any woman that has some wrinkling issues, whether a few like mine or more, would love this serum. 

This serum came ready for gift-giving in a pink  bag, adorned with pink ribbon and also came with a bonus of a full-size tube of LipLove lipstick, a medium pink shade, for $55!  If you ask me, you can hardly buy one skin care product anymore for that price.

With the holiday season and all those parties on the horizon, you need to put your best face forward and Renee Taylor's face Love can definitely help you do that!  Pick some up for yourself or give as a gift to brighten someone else's life and witness a beautiful change.

L'Occitane En Provence's New LIMITED EDITION Marvellous Flowers Eau de Toilette, Body Cream and Hand Cream Review

**Disclaimer:  This post has been compensated through a free product (s) or monetary payment.  Opinions are solely mine. All links are "no-follow" links.**

L'Occitane's Marvellous Flowers Eau de Toilette, Body Cream and Hand Cream

I love L'Occitane fragrance and have used their products before.  Therefore, when I had the opportunity to review some of their new  limited edition Marvellous Flowers scented products,  I was delighted.  Let me tell you what to expect.

Like a floral explosion, L'Occitane's Marvellous Flowers, bursts to life with countless acres of roses and peonies that compete with sparkling pink grapefruit and juicy red berries to give this enchanting fruity-floral a sense of pure romantic bliss.  

Blame the mischievous red fruit notes at play for the freshness tempting to lift and carry you off to their magical world in the fragrance's opening notes.  However, those magnificent peonies and roses are jealous by forcing every last bud in their ranks to bloom to break the fruit spell, perfuming the air with their unified sweetness in this heart.  

The dry down is soft and seductive with light woods and white musk for a lingering finish to bewitch those caught up in this fairy tale of a beautiful romantic fragrance.

The Marvellous Flowers Body Cream comes in a unique square 8.8 oz. jar that is abundantly enriched with skin pleasing moisturizing ingredients to soften while perfuming with floral beauty of rose and peony among the raspberries.  The formula is light, but rich for easy absorption.

The Marvellous Flowers Hand Cream is topnotch when it comes to hands.  You don't feel greasy with the L'Occitane formula that contains shea butter and natural floral extracts while it protects, repairs, and allows you yet another irresistible way to draw you into that dreamy, very feminine floral fragrance.

I was sent the Marvellous Flowers Eau de Toilette Spray in the 75ml size, which has a nice lasting power as well.  It also comes in a 10ml roll on. 

This fragrance is a limited edition for the holidays so you will want to get a jump on it and order, otherwise, you might miss one of the prettiest scents I have experienced from them so far!  Marvellous Flowers also comes in holiday gift sets like the Marvellous Flowers Star Gift Set  (an $80 value) for $68, which would please anylucky lady on your shopping list.  Honestly, I highly recommend visiting L'Occitane and stocking up on some while the scent is available.  Look for limited edition sets of new Magical Leaves and Shea Embrace gifts while you're at it.

Harvey Prince Natural Perfumes BIG Holiday Perfumes & Soaps Review + ($254) Giveaway! (3 Winners!)--Ends December 12, 2012

**Disclaimer:  This post has been compensated through a free product (s) or monetary payment.  Opinions are solely mine. All links are "no-follow" links.**

Scents of Purpose Gift Set and Flirt Soap

Harvey Prince Natural Perfumes knows how to make us, as women, feel truly irresistible and desired with their exhilarating line of sensational fragrances that are scents geared with specific purposes.  And as a big fan, I am pleased to be working with them again for this big holiday review and giveaway!

Those that still never tried any of their amazing fragrances would find a good place to start is with their six roll-on perfumes in the Scents of Purpose Gift Set.

Eau de Lite fragrance and Flirt Soap

Eau Flirt, which I personally labeled the man magnet for the way this gorgeous scent works to drive men wild with tempting notes of floral, fruit, and spice like freesia, ylang ylang, jasmine, lavender, pumpkin pie, nutmeg, cinnamon and warmth from amber.  Ladies, this is  the perfume that definitely will get you noticed by male eyes and I must confess my ultimate favorite.

Eau Fling, is the one that has proven science behind it for just the right mix to fire men up with arousing natural ingredients like lavender, jasmine, juicy raspberry, luscious plum, nutmeg, cinnamon, sexy musk, and rare woods.

For happily ever after, Coupling, is one up to the task.  This is so pretty with that heavenly aroma of gardenia, freesia, patchouli, cinnamon, nutmeg, cucumber, with a sexy dose of amber.

Eau de Creme is the one for adding a playful sizzle to any romance.  Can you imagine a more fun way to tempt your man than with delicious rum raisin, vanilla, passion fruit, chocolate, citrus, and patchouli?

Eau de Lite is known to help suppress appetites with a mix of green apple, rosemary, peppermint,  sandalwood, and fennel.  However, it does stir male appetites up in other ways--like for delicious YOU!

Ageless is the one fragrance to keep you smelling young with a vibrant blend of fresh pink grapefruit, pomegranate, luscious mango, jasmine, tuberose, ylang ylang, and sandalwood.  Think of this as a sensory beauty lift to beat that age barrier!

Ageless Soap and Coupling Eau de Toilette

Another way to savor those sensual fragrances are through Harvey Prince's beautiful and moisturizing scented soaps in Flirt and Ageless.  The Flirt bar has green tea leaves, essential oil of lavender, and mowrah shea butter  with exfoliation properties as well from pumpkin seeds.  The Ageless bar has time released collagen actives, soothing olive oil, vitamin E,  green tea, grapefruit, mowrah shea butter, and pumpkin and berry seeds built into that formula.  Trust me, these giant bars smell so gorgeous you'll want to stock up and hide extra to perfume your lingerie drawer.

I really do love everything this company makes that I tried so far and have no doubts that you will too once you experience some of their fragrant magic.  So give that special woman in your life a gift from Harvey Prince Natural Perfumes and watch how quickly you power up her smile to one with more wattage than any holiday lights!

Lisa Hoffman Beauty's Tunisian Neroli Eau de Parfum Spray and Variations Fine Fragrance Oils Review

Lisa Hoffman Beauty's Tunisian Neroli Eau de Parfum Spray and Variations Fine Fragrance Oils

What a cozy way to stay warm than with Lisa Hoffman Beauty's beautifully intoxicating Tunisian Neroli Eau de Parfum as it wraps you with its rich fruit-floral and woods for a comforting feeling as soft and elegant as cashmere against your skin as it seduces.  And yet, there is an exotic opulence in the way this perfume touches you.

The opening notes are dreamlike with gardenia petals floating among watery accords for sweet breeziness.  You pleasantly drift until encountering the brisker undercurrent of blood orange that stirs up the mix for a refreshing splash of freshness.

Happily awake now, the compelling heart notes of ylang ylang, orange nectar, and neroli blossoms force you into plunging into that tempting pool of fresh sweetness.  Because it exerts such a powerful hold over your senses, you want to savor that exquisite aroma in that haunting water and the uninhibited sensation for as long as possible.  You could stay there forever if not for the warmth in the eyes of an awaiting admirer.

The romantic base is all about desire as you exchange knowing smiles.   You nearly stop his heart with a heady dose of floral from gardenia and ylang ylang burning with golden amber and vanilla for seduction in this dry down.

The matching set of four Variations Fine Fragrance Oils is another appealing way to experience the joy of wearing this scent.   What is so irresistible about this set is how Lisa Hoffman Beauty formulated the Tunisian Neroli perfume to best suit morning, daytime, evening, and bedtime.  

You can wear each roll-on perfume alone or layer them for a slightly different variation.  Regardless of the method you choose, you will be captivated by this exquisite fragrance.

Vial 01:  Morning--This is when the Tunisian Neroli fragrance sparkles the most with juicy citrus from blood orange infused with sweet gardenia and watery accords.

Vial 02:  Daytime--This is the formulation of the scent that shows its warm and romantic side with  ylang ylang, lemon, golden amber, musk, and Tunisian Neroli blossoms.  

Vial 03:  Evening--You'll find this oil the most seductive Tunisian Neroli variation.   With romantic floral, vanilla, and golden amber, this alluring version can play havoc with your senses.

Vial 04:  Bedtime--This vial is the most delicate way to experience the Tunisian Neroli fragrance.  All soft woods and deep musks are dominant over the notes to give it a dreamy romantic quality. 

If you want a truly sensuous floral that goes lightly with the woods and spice while also having an inner sparkling radiance, you will also love this Lisa Hoffman Beauty fragrance as much as I do.  

The Tunisian Neroli Eau de Parfum Spray retails for $65 and the Tunisian Neroli Variations Fine Fragrance Oils sell for $95.

Those looking to make a woman happy this holiday shopping season should definitely think of these for gifts!

Auric Blends Love Perfume Spray and Egyptian Goddess Perfume Oil Review + Giveaway! (2 Winners!)--Ends December 6, 2012

**Disclaimer:  This post has been compensated through a free product (s) or monetary payment.  Opinions are solely mine. All links are "no-follow" links.**

Egyptian Goddess Perfume Oil

Auric Blends is a company that seems to infuse intoxicating beauty into every one of their natural perfumes, candles, incense, soaps, and perfume oils that I have tried.  For effortless seduction, let me acquaint you with two of my favorites, their best-selling Egyptian Goddess Fine Perfume Oil and Love Perfume Spray that were sent to me for this review and giveaway

The essence of Egyptian Goddess is so subtle and yet mysterious as it softly weaves its seductive spell of soft florals, light powder and musk to command attention.   Whenever I wear this bewitching perfume, I feel more beautiful and so empowered because I can feel male eyes on me.
Egyptian Goddess Fine Perfume Oil is a more potent mix of sensual creamy musk and soft powdery floral that comes in a dab on form.  Unlike the perfume spray, this version of the fragrance is a concentrated form and will last even longer to make him burn with desire for you. 

Love Perfume Spray

Love Perfume Spray takes that same mind-boggling Egyptian Goddess formula and gives it a breezy clean lightness to round out the warmth of seductive musk, white amber, woods, and those soft floral notes.  This one is just as irresistible, only it has more of a powdery quality to the spiciness that is enchanting. 

How can I explain how much both of these perfumes can make a woman feel at her sexy best?  Egyptian Goddess is sizzling with hidden sensuality only a bit stronger in the perfume oil form  compared to the spray version that I reviewed last year.  Whereas, Love Perfume Spray  has a bit more spice compared to the softer scent of Egyptian Goddess Perfume Spray, but is just as enticing when it comes to encompassing sexiness only in a different way.   

I honestly love them  and do highly recommend both Egyptian Goddess and Love Perfume of any form.  Either or both of these captivating perfumes would make a wonderful holiday gift for any woman so she may cast her own seductive spell.  So, guys, do pick Egyptian Goddess or Love Perfume or both for your own goddess and show her that she rules your heart!

Thanks to Auric Blends, two lucky Nuts 4 Stuff readers in the United States or Canada win either:
