Hey! I can't believe it's May already. Sorry this is late, but I've been very busy and the internet has been acting a little strange, but nonetheless, here are my April Favorites. To be honest, I don't have a lot because I haven't had time to try anything this month. School has been very time consuming. And then I don't want to post random things I've never tried, so yeah. Hope you like it! And a review on some of my favorites will be up too! If you have any requests, inquiries, etc, feel free to email me at coftayblog@yahoo.com!
I just realized, I'm running out of time, I have to do something, so for this month, I'm just going to list the products. Sorry. But I promise May will be much better. Sorry again. ;(
-E.L.F. Studio Complexion Perfection
-Pantene Pro-V Smooth Shampoo
-E.L.F. Studio Blush in Mellow Muave
-Bath & Body Lotion in Pink Grapefruit
-Vera Wang Princess Perfume
-OraLabs Chapstick
-The Body Shop Body Butter in Vanilla Nutmeg
Sorry again for the lack of pictures. But I will compensate soon. :)
Until next time.
P.S: I will be doing a review on body butters this month! Stay tuned!!!

How To: Choose A (Spring) Scent
Hi all.
Spring. Florals and light nudes, pinks, and greys. Flowers, and cherry blossoms. What better time than to trade your warm, musky, winter scent for a light, spring one. Here are ways to help you pick a scent. Scents that are in this spring are fruity and soft.
-Smell each perfume on a fragrance blotter. Do not put more than one perfume on a blotter.
- Smell overload? Ask for something that smells strong, such as coffee beans, which most perfume stores will have. If not, bring some with you (if you know you are going to go perfume shopping.)
Smell them. If not, try smelling your sleeves.
-Once you narrow it down to a couple of perfumes, spritz on different parts of your body. "Warm spots are the best places to spray a scent because fragrance is enhanced by heat. Try the hollow of the neck, behind your ears, the inner wrists, and crooks of the knees and elbows. Avoid spraying your clothes or hair—some fragrances can stain and leave your hair greasy."
-Wait for a minimum of 30 minutes and smell, and decide which is the best.

March Favorites
Hey! So today, I'll be doing a March Favorites. This is the first time I am doing it. If you don't know, the Monthly Favorites are sort of like a tag, kind of. Actually, a lot of gurus do them. It's basically when once a month, usually at the end of that month or the first couple of days of the next month, you list or talk about all your favorite items you used that month (beauty, skincare, makeup, tools, etc.). Let's begin!
1. Jergens Ultra Healing Extra Dry Skin Moisturizer
I find this very good- I used it for the winter, and am still using it, for a little now. Here, March was kind of windy, so it helped. I bought this at BJ's, but I think this can also be found in drugstores for around $5.
2.
LA Colors Sheer Lipgloss Tube in Clear
I don't really get lip products from LA Colors, or makeup from them in general. However, I decided to try. I actually like this. It is kind of sticky, but it is long lasting. The place where the lipgloss comes out is like one of those fabric type covered top, do you know what I'm saying?
3. The Body Shop Nutmeg & Vanilla Body Butter
This body butter does exactly what is says it does: soften the skin.
4. Britney Spears Curious Perfume
This is probably my only favorite "cheap" perfume. It does not compare to Daisy or Miss Dior Cherie, but I still think it smells good. It's something I could wear everyday.
5.Pantene Smooth V Sleek and Shine Shampoo
I love this shampoo so far. I recently go it, so I am going to continue experimenting with it! Hopefully it'll last. But it makes your hair very smooth and sleek. I recommend it!
Bye!

Kim Kardashian's New Perfume
Kim Kardashian's long awaited perfume, Kim Kardashian, was released last week. She reportedly had been working on the perfume for 2-3 years. The bottle claims that the perfume "essence evokes Kim's sultry style with crisp top notes, lush mid notes, and a sexy drydown. " Notes include: Mandarin, Honey Suckle, Orange Blossom, Pink Jasmine, Tuberose, Sensual Spice, Lush Gardenia, Jacaranda Wood, Tonka Bean, Vanilla Orchid, Sexy Musk, Creamy Sandalwood.
The perfume definitely has a strong scent, so if you're not into strong scents, then it really isn't for you. It does sort of smell like Michael Kors' Very Hollywood perfume. It is also on the floral side. You can smell gardenia immediately. If you like strong floral scents, then this perfume is for you!
