Molton Brown Gingerlily Shimmer Body Oil

Darlings,

I was at a wedding last weekend where one of the family members of the bride was wearing a Bath And Body Works cherry blossom body lotion with some glimmery shimmery factor in it that looked SO pretty. The gal who was wearing it said, “I love this stuff and I just know they’re going to discontinue it!” Guess what? She was right. Sometimes you can find these things on ebay, though, if you have a hankering to smell like a dolled up cherry blossom.

I like a subtle shine on my arms and chest for a little pick-up on special occasions or even just to feel a bit prettier and for that I have found a lovely product by Molton Brown:

I put it on my Amazon Wish List and one of you sent it to me as a graduation gift, which was so generous and very much appreciated. I do wish that Amazon would include and name and address of the sweet pigeons who send gifts so that I can send them thank you notes, but they only do so on a random basis (or perhaps some people choose to remain anonymous?). At any rate, this is a lovely moisturizer for summer as it soaks right into the skin and doesn’t make a girl all lotiony (and doesn’t lotion just sweat right off, anyway?). The shimmer factor is really nice, little flecks of gold. You can get it here.

I love Molton Brown scents so much. I can’t wait to visit one of their stores in London and stick my snout into a bunch of bottles and inhale. Ahhhhhhh!
