Product review, Fragrance, Perfume, Just for Fun: Britney Spears Midnight Fantasy; You Must Choose – The Britney Edition
Source: makeupandbeautyblog.com
It seems that celeb perfumes, like Barney or Paris Hilton, divide people into two distinct camps: either you LOVE THEM or you HATE THEM.
I used to be in the HATE THEM category but after sampling and actually liking Sarah Jessica Parker’s Covet Perfume a few weeks ago, I realized that hating all celeb scents purely on principal was terribly unfair. A good scent is a good scent, and I can’t hate on one just because it’s being hocked by B-list singers or actors.
Maybe I’ll find at least one more celeb perfume that doesn’t make me want to throw up, I thought.
And sweet jeebus, did I find one – Britney Spears’ Midnight Fantasy. LOLOLOLZ!
Laugh all you want, ya’ll…I know I did when I first picked up the cheesy purple bottle, which is BeDazzled within an inch of it’s life.
I expected eau de Cheetoes/Red Bull/bad weave to be thrust into the air when I spritzed it on my wrist. Lo and behold, instead came out a really pretty fruit scent. It might be a touch too sweet for some, but on me I pick up notes of blackberries, vanilla and cherries. Yum!
It’s a fun, flirty, youthful smell. I’d wear it on date night or the weekends but not to work because it can a lil’ bit too Wet Seal/Forever 21/Limited Too if administered in too heavy a doseage.
One 5.5 oz bottle of Britney Spears Midnight Fantasy is $55.00, available on the macys.com Web site.
YOU MUST CHOOSE: The Britney Spears Edition
I must confess
That my lonliness
Is killing me now
Don’t you know I still believe?
–Britney Spears
So yeah, her personal life is a mess, and the girl can’t comb that dirty birdy weave to save her life but I gotta come clean. I’m on TEAM BRITNEY. I’ll even fess up to attending one of her concerts, and damnit, it was good!
A few weeks ago you were introducted to one of my fave time wasters, YOU MUST CHOOSE. Can you handle the Britney Spears edition?
The 10th circle of hell opens up…and it doesn’t lead into my closet! Instead, you are forced to work in close proximity as a personal assistant to either Britney Spears (who just shaved her head, is foaming at the mouth and is wielding a very large umbrella) or Rachel Ray (who speaks to you with excessive perkiness and ONLY in code – EVOO! YUM-O! – before you’ve had your morning coffee). And yes, you are on call for twenty four hours a day. YOU MUST CHOOSE!
Britney finally decides to get help, and unfortunately it’s not the mental kind. Instead, she has you choose a weave/wig to wear to court (she’s gotta get those babies back, yo!) to make her look like a model citizen. Blonde? Brunette? Black? YOU MUST CHOOSE!
You have the power to re-write history. You can either erase Kevin Federline from Britney Spears’ life OR Bobby Brown from Whitney’s life (remember “I Will Always Love You?” girlfriend KILLED that song!). Who would you save? YOU MUST CHOOSE!
You get the chance to be a backup dancer in any Britney Video that your lovin’ heart desires. Which one would you star in? YOU MUST CHOOSE!
Aren’t you glad Monday is over? I am. This week should be better work-wise for me so I’ll be back to postings in the mornings once more, whew!
Have a good night…I hope you dream of Manolos.
Your friendly neighborhood beauty addict,
Karen
