Rainy Days, Jelly Beans, Polish & the Perfect Perfume

Rainy Days, Jelly Beans, Polish & the Perfect Perfume Do you ever have days at work where you wish the day could just start over?  One of those days when your internet didn't work until noon, when a shipment of products arrives broken and it's been raining... all day?  We had one today.  And with almost nothing to do with the first four hours of our day, we dedicated it to enjoying ourselves with everything lovely that our office has to offer.  So, we enjoyed: 1.  The Zoya MatteVelvet Collection.  They're finally in!  We got OPI's Matte colors last week and thought they were cool, but we're totally in love with Posh from Zoya.  This totally flat color has the perfect amount of sparkle in a totally chic deep red color.  The sparkle cheered us up for sure, as did the uber fast drying formula! Didn't even smudge them typing. 2.  Rosie Jane's Leila Lou Perfume Oil.  Pure springtime in a bottle.  Around here, we really love Kai's perfume oil, but several of us have converted to Leila Lou gurus.  This beautiful oil is soft and airy, with beautiful floral hints and the perfect amount of sunny freshness.  We might have all been in a horrible mood today, but we smelled fantastic the whole time. 3.  Jelly Bean party.  At about 1:30pm on such frustrating days, we bust out a gazillion-flavor collection of Jelly Bellies and let crazy flavors like Buttered Popcorn, Jalepeno & Margarita let us "drown our sorrows" in sugar-y goodness.  It's five o'clock somewhere, right!? 4.  Moroccanoil Intense Hydrating Hair Mask.  So, here's the deal: this is an incredibly moisturizing hair mask that gives your hair just a little added conditioning when your hair needs it most.  We were nervous to try it, as none of us had exceptionally coarse or dry hair, but we were happy to discover that it truly is designed for all hair types!  And to boot- we're convinced it makes an excellent lotion.  The Boss unpacked a broken shipment today and managed to get it all over herself, and concluded that she might just start using it as a lotion.  Sure smells good enough to! The good news, is on days like today when the world (or the office) comes crashing down, working around some of the cutest, happiest most fabulous products ever sure makes our job just a little bit easier.  :)
