Marc Jacobs Honey Eau de Parfum: Review
When Marc Jacobs released the Honey Eau de Parfum ($96 CAD for 50ml) in 2013, I was completely on board because I love the smell of honey. However, after testing it out and realizing that it smelled nothing like honey (well at first, at least), I kind of set it aside until a couple weeks ago I decided to give it another go. Well, although Honey still doesn't smell all that like honey, it's definitely becoming a fast favorite of mine. So today I want to share with you my thoughts on this adorable Marc Jacobs scent.

Philosophy Clear Days Ahead Acne Treatment Collection: Review
I suffered from very severe acne in my teenage years so I knew that adult acne would be something I'd have to deal with for the years to come.
