Beauty Traditions

Do you have a beauty tradition? A product that holds such value to you, sentimential or otherwise, that you can’t help but buy it?

I certainly do, and I call it my birthday tradition. Every birthday since I was 16, I have received a bottle of Chanel Coco Mademoiselle. It’s become my signature scent that people associate with me and I love it.

I think all of Chanel’s fragrances are divine, from the sensual Allure and classic N^o5 to the fresh Chance, I find Coco Mademoiselle slots perfectly inbetween, flitting between flowery-fresh to deeper sensual notes. Wearable for both day and night, it’s been my staple of my perfume stable (one that takes up a large corner of my dresser.)

Other perfumes I love may come and go, but Coco Mademoiselle holds a special place for me, and I love the tradition of it.

Here’s me with the gorgeous art-deco inspired parfum bottle at my last birthday.

Yippee!

I’d love to hear of your beauty traditions or sentimental products!
