BPAL! part deux

Feb 11, 2012 16:41

My package arrived today! Squee!

I opened it and immediately put on Crossroads, which is supposed to be "A chill twilit garden of blooms over dry earth and mosses, heavily laden with incense and offertory herbs." It's had plenty of time to sit on my skin, and I'm liking it: a blend of light cool florals and incense.

I got 4 extra imps as well--well, 5 imp bottles, but I got Absinthe twice. One of them, Lady Macbeth, I'm not even going to try on because it's so fruity-berry in the bottle I know I'm going to be scrubbing it off five minutes after I put it on. (Yoon, would you like it? I seem to remember that you like berry notes.)

I'm taking a bath this evening, so I'll be able to scrub off the Crossroads and try something different. It will be hard to choose, and I may end up just putting them all in a hat and drawing randomly.

In random unconnected news, I got a haircut today and am feeling much less shaggy. My stylist trimmed about an inch off everywhere to get rid of the split ends and then cut my bangs so that it just sweeps over my left eye. I am liking the effect and will probably have her redo it the next time. On my way back I stopped and explored the tiny Middle Eastern grocery two doors down from the salon. To my delight it had orange blossom water, so now I can make that one dried fruit compote in my Middle Eastern cookbook.
