Ever since I read an article about the brand Carol's Daughter years ago, I wanted to try it. But I'm always a little sketchy on ordering something online without having seen it in person first because I feel like it's a little like online dating - you never really know what you're going to get. You want to believe that you're going to buy the makeup equivalent of George Clooney, but sometimes you get stuck opening the package to find Booger from "Revenge of the Nerds." So I was really excited to hear that Sephora had decided to carry the entire Carol's Daughter line this year. So far, the product I'm really liking is the Body Cleansing Gel in the Almond Cookie scent. It smells just like a fresh baked almond cookie, which is a nice change of pace from the usual food scented body products. It foams up nicely and doesn't dry out your skin, which is always a plus. And most importantly, you can layer the scent with bath oil, body scrub, shea souffle and other items, so if you like it, you can go all out and REALLY smell like almond cookie. The coolest thing of all is that the company was started by one woman out of her apartment and now it's grown into something so successful, Sephora wanted to sell it. How awesome is that? If I had any patience at all, I'd try doing the same thing, but then how would I justify all my trips to the mall?
