While I always find it slightly absurd that mass retailers begin to market Halloween merchandise before school even starts, in the case of seasonal beauty products, I make an exception!

Candy corn is one of my ALL-TIME favorites (which means a lot, coming from a sugar addict) so the idea of literally being able to bathe in it kind of thrills me.

I’ll have to check this one out immediately!

Philosophy I Love Candy Corn Shampoo, Shower Gel and Bubble Bath is available from Sephora for $16.

I recently started dabbling in the practice of wearing perfume or scented lotion to bed, thanks to my friend Julia who swears this is the only way to drift off to dreamland.

My latest ritual involves a long bath with Philosophy Field of Flowers Shampoo, Shower Gel and Bubble Bath (I use it for the latter) and then slathering myself with the ultra-rich matching body lotion. Field of Flowers is a fresh, floral scent that’s not too intense yet strong enough to leave me with visions of beautiful flowers dancing in my head. I drift off to sleep feeling relaxed and smelling amazing.

I think Julia has a point.

Philosophy Field of Flowers is available online at Philosophy.com.

Philosophy’s recent releases have me giddy with delight, as I have long wished they would add more cosmetics to their excellent array of offerings.

Philosophy the Supernatural Instant Sunshine Natural Mineral Bronzer is available from Nordstrom for $28.

This sweet little set would be a fabulous way to shower a bride-to-be with hope, purity and grace.

Perfect for toting along on the honeymoon or saving for a special occasion, this kit of small wonders would bring a smile to any bride’s face!
