Celine Dion's Sensational PerfumeIf there’s one thing I love as much as great perfume, it’s freebies.  So when the two combine, I’m over the moon happy.

This would be me, smiling, and on the other side of the moon.

For a free sample of Celine Dion’s Sensational Perfume, fill out the quick form you’ll find on the other side of the link. It takes less than 2 minutes and your sample will be on its way to your hot little hands in 4 to 6 weeks.

This post marks a new category and, hopefully, daily event on Arm Sweets.  I’m going to start posting “Beautiful Freebies” that’ll hook you up with beauty products that will be yours for the asking.

I’ll post a different freebie daily, so keep a look out!



Lovely Perfume by Sarah Jessica Parker Eau De Parfum Spray 1.7 Oz
My current favorite perfume is Lovely by Sarah Jessica Parker.  I say current because my favorite perfume tends to change along with my current favorite song, current favorite restaurant, current favorite tv show, etc.   At the moment, Lovely, “Pocketfull of Sunshine,” Tokyo’s, and Survivor are on top of the heap.  Next week, O’Charley’s may regain it’s top position and American Idol may send the Survivor’s tumbling.

One thing’s for certain, it won’t be easy to knock Lovely off its spot.  It’s been my favorite since it knocked Bora Bora down a spot.   Have you tried Sarah Jessica Parker’s new perfume?  Oddly enough, I don’t like it at all - after she hit such a smashing homer with Lovely, I was anxious to see what she came up with next…..then (after trying it) I was disappointed that she hadn’t allowed Lovely to simply be an only child.

As an only child, myself, I guarantee there’s a lot to be said for the honor.

If you’re as wild about perfume as I am, you should check out Perfume Country.  They have all of our favorites (depending on whatever week or month it is!), including Lovely Perfume by Sarah Jessica Parker Eau De Parfum Spray 1.7 Oz.    Click the link to jump over to the website, then have a look around for yourself.

Great deals!

I’ve been a Loyal-with-a-capital-L fan and customer of AVON products for two forevers….well, two forevers going on three.  The only drawback was having to find a new rep whenever we moved, or trying to hang on to one once we found one.  But since AVON opened up such an amazing online store, I no longer have the rep headache.  They’re available to me 24/7 and I get my goodies SO much faster!

If Avon were sold in stores, it would fast become the top selling make-up and skin care retailer in the country.  The stuff is THAT good.  Everyone knows about their amazing perfumes and colognes, their Skin So Soft line, and their infamous bubble bath (I’d love to be in a tub filled with the pink stuff right now!)…but most people don’t realize that their ANEW skin care line is recommened by the most expert of the experts in skin care.  It’s off the charts - giving you glowing skin and a more youthful appearance almost immediately.  At least that was my experience - as well as countless others who’ve said the same thing.

Thier make-up is nothing short of spectacular, too.  I’m not sure how they swing it, but their eyeshadow, lipsticks, foundation, and blush all stay on longer than the store brands.  Yet, the price is usually less.

I also use their nail polish and other products inn their nail care line.

Lovely

I was asked recently what my favorite perfume was.  Since it changes (almost weekly!), I had to say, “At the moment…..”

There are SO MANY amazing fragrances on the market, picking just one would be like picking just one favorite dessert, which I can’t do either.

I tend to wear perfume to match what I’m wearing or how I’m feeling.  For example, if I’m going to the park to walk or play tennis, I’ll spray on something kind of kicky like Charlie or Exclamation.  Other times, I’ll grab Lovely (shown), by Sarah Jessica Parker or one of JLo’s killer fragrances.

I got an e-mail from a girl who was getting married soon.  She was asking about white satin clutches and gloves.  (She’s going to be such a knock-out, her groom will pass out!)  I asked her what perfume she was going to wear and she said the one that started it all: 
Lovely
.  Apparently, she walked by him in the mall and he fell for her and her perfume - it’s what started the conversation that led to dates that led to her finding the perfect clutch and gloves for an October wedding!

How perfectly Lovely!



Wide Band Mod Bracelet WatchGorgeousness!  This beauty is the Wide Band Mod Bracelet Watch  from JLo. 

Product Description:  Rose gold tone cuff bangle with white inlay. White glossy background with rose gold applied indexes.

I know I’ve seen a watch just like this on JLo before, I just can’t find the picture in my files. She wore a Grecian-type dress with this watch, if memory serves as well as I think it does.

The spectacular Sabina sunglasses would complete the perfect ONE - TWO punch.  I’m usually not that into sunglasses…I save my fashion passion for handbags, shoes, jewelry, and, clothes - but these pretty much blow me away.  They could convert me all by themselves.

JLo SunglassesProduct Description:

Tennis BraceletsTennis bracelets are a favorite of mine.  I think it’s because they’re pretty, sparkly and feminine - a lethal trio.   The BIRTHSTONE COLOR TENNIS BRACELET from AVON is  Birthstone-colored glass in a classic silvertone setting. 7″L with 1″ extender.

Although they’re birthstone colors, I see absolutely nothing wrong with combining them to make a gorgeous statement like the model in the picture.  Especially since they’re priced at 2 for $20!

AVON jewelry lasts forever - I have pieces that my mother got, like 100 years ago.  They simply do no tear up, change colors or run away from home. 

AVON Night Magic Lotion Something else I love about AVON is that they’re a large patch of Americana - their logo, alone, stirs up nothing but great memories and sweet nostalgia.  Going through brochures with my mom, grandmother and aunt, trying every perfume they’ve EVER thrown out, as well as every lotion, cream, eyeshadow, and nail polish.  Oh, the nail polish!  I’ve spent a small fortune on nail polish alone. The Perfumed Skin Softener to the left (NIGHT MAGIC EVENING MUSK PERFUMED SKIN SOFTENER 5OZ141G) is another staple, as is SOFT MUSK Eau de Cologne Spray Soft Musk Perfume.

I love Bath and Body Works - especially the Japanese Cherry Blossom scent - but it seems to me that AVON lasts even longer.  I’m not sure why, to be honest, but AVON will last two forevers - even though I use it just as often as the other brands.

I think each product comes with little fairies that refill the bottle each night.

Much appreciated, little bottle-filling fairies, much appreciated.
