#SuperCedar by #byredo. This is a really soft scent, cosy, warm. Stupidly expensive. It feels like a fragrance that someone would have to get close to you to smell. 6/10 #TryingToDescribeFragrancesIsHard #WritingExercise

It’s *really* hard to describe a scent, but I am going to try.
(I’ve amassed quite a collection of discovery sets & beauty box samples so figured I’d start reviewing them.)

I’ll read anything Sittenfeld writes but this was disappointing. I wasn’t too interested in the comedy skits; I’m not sure the humour landed. Noah felt cardboardy. What did work was how she writes on self sabotage - the way we fuck things up and sit in the awkwardness. Thoughts?

New experience unlocked 😉 got locked on a pier. One of those times you think, no! There must be a way. There was not. Two big iron gates with huge padlocks & nobody around.
Spoiler - At the end of the pier was a helpful man who fetched a code for the padlock. But for a few minutes…

Oh guys, I went a bit budget with my skincare and it was a complete waste of money. I figured Sali Hughes is a dependable beauty journalist so her collab with Revolution would be decent.
The moisturiser smells like scented nappy bags...

What an excellent washing up brush. Expensive but sturdy and the smiley faces (yes, plural - the end serves as a stand *and* has a face) bring me joy.
