The daily lemming

Posted by Robin on 12 November 2025 Leave a Comment

From Kate McLeod, Amber & Vanilla Pebble Deep Moisturizing Solid Bath & Shower Oil: "Rooted in ancient rituals of restoration, this limited edition bath & shower oil blends golden amber with creamy vanilla for a scent that’s warming and comforting. A deep-conditioning, water-activated body treatment, it gently exfoliates and nourishes for a slow ritual that softens and grounds." $42 for 135g at Beautyhabit.

Admittedly I just want the pretty purple iris case for Diptyque's Fleur de Peau solid perfume: "White musks, luminous iris … Supremely sensual, Fleur de Peau scented balm is a tribute to the myth of the love between Eros and Psyche. This solid perfume is endlessly refillable and alcohol-free, ready to grace the wrist, neck or décolleté when applied with the fingertips." $76 for 3g at Dillards.
