@sonnydee  Mmmmm that Kilian sounds lovely!

[sonnydee]

It really is & they did make a travel size of it thankfully! @PrettyPaint 

[PrettyPaint]

@sonnydee  Oooh thanks! I think I'll give it a try once it come back in stock!!

@sonnydee I've been wondering about the KILIAN Paris Love, Don’t Be Shy Eau de Parfum with Vanilla & Marshmallow 1.7 oz / 50 mL eau de parfu... myself!  It SOUNDS like it would smell great.

[sonnydee]

Like a sugar coated marshmallow. If you like gourmands its a must🤤 @CookieGirl1 

[CookieGirl1]

@sonnydee I NEED to smell this in person.  I want to smell like a marshmallow :).

@GeorginaBT Can you tell me a little bit about the Gisou Honey Infused Hair Mask? I very interested in it and debating picking it up. 🙂

[GeorginaBT]

@quspork YES! In the past year or so, I've tried quite a few different hair masks; I was using and loving Briogeo Don't Despair, Repair!™ Deep Conditioning Hair Mask 8 oz/ 237 mL for such a long time. I still love the Briogeo mask and will probably return to it later on, but as someone who is growing out bleach-damaged hair, the Gisou formula really kicks the moisture in my hair up a level which I NEED right now. It's a really thick, almost paste-like consistency - I can absolutely feel the difference in hair softness when I use it vs. when I don't. 

If you're in need for intense moisture, I say definitely give it a try! 😊

[quspork]

Thanks, @GeorginaBT! My hair could definitely use some additional moisture lately, so that definitely sounds like something to consider.

@quspork 

You absolutely don’t need to spend that much on a hair mask, that’s insane. Sorry, but part of the mods job a part from moderating is subliminally selling us stuff. 🤷🏻‍♀️

[quspork]

LOL, of course they're here to market, @GG84. I would never purchase something, even a drugstore-priced item, based solely on a mod's (or anyone's really) recommendation.

[GG84]

@quspork 

There are a fair amount of coating ingredients in it aside from the humectants. I can tell I wouldn’t like it as I wouldn’t be able to distinguish the moisture from the coating. 

[SportyGirly125]

@quspork @I bought it when it got released but am still deciding if I like that and the hair oil. It’s really expensive so I want to make sure I really like it. 

[quspork]

Yes, @SportyGirly125 the price is what's kept me from making the purchase already, but maybe during the fall sale I can more easily justify it, LOL.

My September favs are Fresh Rose Petal-Soft Deep Hydration Lip Balm Tower 28 Beauty ShineOn Milky Lip Jelly Gloss Almond TJ pumpkin body butter VOLUSPA Mini Spiced Pumpkin Latte Candle Pairing Gift Set Charlotte Tilbury lip and cheek glow shade colour of dreams

[tjffc]

@lmaster Love those candles.

[lmaster]

The ones I've tried have been awesome!! @tjffc 

[PrettyPaint]

@lmaster  I LOVE those Tower Beauty glosses. That TJs pumpkin body butter sounds so nice. What's the texture like? Is it nice and thick/buttery? I don't have a TJs near me but I keep reading such great things about their body care.

[lmaster]

@PrettyPaint thank you!! Yes it is a thick consistency,, but it absorbs so quickly!!

[PrettyPaint]

@lmaster  Thanks! That sounds awesome. I love quick absorbing - I hate that feeling when my clothes get stuck to my skin.

[quspork]

These are great picks, @lmaster! Does the Tower 28 lip gloss have much stickiness?
