I think it's interesting that you consider the Hot Couture an evening scent. Granted, I have the EdT, not the EdP, but to me it is a total day scent! I wear it to school all the time.

Love this list!

the Eau de Parfum is heavier and richer than the Eau de Toilette. I wear it during the day too because it has a really long staying power but a lot of people classify it as an evening scent.

I can't usually handle EdPs.... too strong for my delicate little nose. In fact, I can hardly wear Viva La Juicy which makes me sad since I love it.

MY little makeup obsessed cousin has started a youtube channel!!!!! I showed her your channel as an example of a 'real person' who I know who does this. HEr name is kathryn2pointOH and I know she'd love it if you would check the channel out.

I got her inglot eyeshadows for xmas and she flipped out. I am so proud to have a little makeup obsessed relative!

see I have the opposite problem! EdTs don't last long on my skin and EdPs mellow out pretty quickly but have long staying power. This just goes to show you that a person's skin chemistry really affects how they react to a perfume!

I am going to check your cousin's channel out right now! So exciting. Inglot eyeshadows are one of my favourites so I can imagine her reaction. I have been scaling back on my YouTube channel. I simply can't find the motivation to put up a video, especially since all the drama/negativity that has been surrounding beauty channels lately. I think I come across clearer in my posts but I do have a few more vids planned, so we'll see how it goes.

I really wish Vancouver had an INGLOT. Just another reason to come and visit Montreal in the Spring!

I do love your blog, especially since you write so well (can't read any blogs that are poorly written). But I love your videos too. Mostly because of the way you speak. :) I love the way you pronounce words like 'kitten' (as in kitten heel... otherwise it might be a bit random and odd).

I am making an effort to not spend $$ now that I am going to be jobless (well, more of an effort than before), but I tried out a benefit cream eyeshadow the other day and loved it. I might have to buy one. A peachy golden one. That I absolutely do not need. Ah well!

BAHAHAHA! Kitten. I just turned to Noah and said "kitten" and he meowed. LOL.

I am really trying to save up to come to Montreal in the spring (especially since prices sky rocket around Spring Break), so I am limiting how much makeup I buy. Thankfully, I have a lot of products I still haven't reviewed so I won't be at a loss for blog posts. I allowing myself to get something from two collections (MAC and Chanel) because I still have some gift cards, and then it is a makeup fast.
