So here re the results of this years spring time edition:
1. Ms. Meg brought the absolutely sumptuous Bio Oil. Now Ms. FauxPrah did know about Bio Oil because she used it during her shoulder surgery to help the size of her scar.

| Bio Oil $12 - $28 at Walgreens.com |
So imagine the beast that was under this packing. Thanks to Bio Oil it ended up only this...
Bio Oil also has a very herbal scent that I liken to Aveda though not a Aveda. I believe with every fiber of my being that this oil is perfection.
2. Paddywax Bordeaux Fig and Vetiver Soy Wax Candle $17 at www.paddywax.com brought by the lovely Ms. Mel. This little lovely is Ms.Faux's latest jam, soy candles. They tend to burn cleaner and smell more herbal.
The container is an up cycled wine bottle which adds to its charm. And the scent is absolute delicious. Ms. FauxPrah cannot remember who brought this little slice of heaven but here it be and it was greatly appreciated by Ms. Lori who got the gift.
3. Now Ms. FauxPrah's gift was a mixed bag of tricks. One of which you have heard about lately. First and foremost Ms. Faux gave her favorite affordable cosmetics line NYX. What did she do? Well their Glam Lipgloss Aqua Luxe of course in the shades Do The Hustle, The Last Party & Glitter Dreams. She wanted to do VIP but they were out.

| NYX Glam Aqua Luxe Lip Gloss $6 at NYX or ULTA |
Ms. Faux love this because it is only $6 and gives your lip the perfect sheer and sparkly lip application. it make your lips super duper wet looking. Really kissable. I mean... look at the gorgeous swatches. Perfect, barely there color.
Ms. FauxPrah also added her favorite other NYX Products to get her out the door. And ya'll know how Ms. FauxPrah love a brow so she got the NYX Tinted Brow Mascara $7 at NYX and ULTA.
I mean look at the before and after. Perfection. Also Ms. Faux is so happy she remembered that not everyone has as dark of brows she has so she got a middle road shade. She saw Ms. Kat, who got her gift tonight, and her brows were perfection.
Ms. Faux also got her favorite cream blush from NYX. NYX Cream Blush in Rose Petal $7 at NYX or ULTA.
Lastly to take all of this product off Ms. FauxPrah shared a pack of her go to, Neutrogena Facial Towelette Wipes $7.25 at Target.
Are these the best? Maybe. Maybe not. What they are is a quality make up remover wipe that thoroughly cleans the skin with a fresh cent and isn't too drying. Ms. FauxPrah love.
4. Next Ms. Becki brought by some Mrs. Meyers Hand Soap in Ruhbarb $3.99 at MrsMeyers.com. The scent was absolute heavenly and ever so clean and light.
Ms. Becki also do love her a candle and again she graced us with the ever so light and beautiful scent of Peach Prosecco.
5. Next Ms. FauxPrah selected her gift and to her surprise it was from Ms. Kat. That's right the same one who got hers. Kat seemed a little nervous about who would get this and lets just say I was the right one. How? I have these in varying colors. What is it? A Buff Headband $15 - $20 at BuffUSA.com. Delectible.
You may have seen those on Survivor, but ms. Faux has used hers as a headband, doo rag, gaiter, wristband, etc... The options are limitless. Check out the picture above. These things are amazing. And Ms. Kat got Ms. FauxPrah one in a color she would have never bought herself but ultimately loooooooves. Ms Kat also got Ms. FauxPrah a Pier One Sugared Cinnamon candle that has had Ms. FauxPrah craving cinnamon rolls. How dare you Ms. Kat. This lovely candle runs $1-$14 for the various sized column candles.
6. Next Ms. Linda done did bring Tokyo Milk's Body Lotion in Song In D Minor $20 at Tokyo Milk.
Now Ms. Linda was ON POINT. Ms. FauxPrah has been a longtime fan of this line and even has this scent. She was turned on by the gorgeous packaging. This lotion has notes that include:
A complex melody: White Orchid, Orange Flower, Gardenia & Amber
Absolutely Heavenly!
7. Next was the gorgeous Fall smells of the White Barn "Leaves" scented candle $22.50 at Bath & Body Works. It is a beautiful rich blend of golden nectar, ripe apple and red berries brought by the Ms.Lori.
Now Ms. FauxPrah did not get this candle, but all she can think right now on this crisp spring night in Chicago, she wishes she had it. The scent is so warm and inviting. They also have this candle in Mahogany and Teakwood, which Ms. FauxPrah is so afraid that she would absolutely just die for.
8. Next Ms. Barbara brought along a gift certificate for a manicure at her favorite nail salon 2 x 10 Nail Salon. Now would you believe it that Ms. FauxPrah lives about 1/2 block from on of these salons.
