Indulgence: what does it mean to you? (and a draw)

I am  a bit of a hedonist. I like to do things that make me feel good, whether that includes fragrance, food and drink or pleasures of an artistic persuasion. I appreciate beauty, and I seek to create the feeling of beauty within myself whenever possible.

I indulge myself, because who else can do it as well as I can? I have no Catholic guilt, no major sins to atone for, no moral obligations that would prevent me from granting myself these sensory pleasures, and it's definitely not always something only a lot of money can provide.

One of my major vices and obsessions is skin care. Not much of a vice, you say? Well, I only obsess and fuss over it so much mostly due to vanity. When I look in the mirror, I want to see perfection. I know, that could not sound more shallow, but since we're being completely honest here, I have another confession. When I have a blemish or discoloration, or anything that bothers or displeases me about my skin, I feel low. Really, really low. Luckily, I have someone near to help me snap out of it quickly. And, I have several quick fixes to make myself feel good in a flash.

A favorite indulgent product I use is Haus of Gloi Pumpkin Butter (which I have reviewed before). It is an incredibly rich body cream that guarantees the softest skin, and a soothed mind if I only spend a few minutes a day using it. I have it in a few different scents, but my favorite and most often used is Aether, which is unfragranced.

Today I am giving away one 6oz jar of Haus of Gloi Aether Pumpkin Butter. I may be hedonistic, but I am no glutton. You see, my personal reserve of Pumpkin Butter is overflowing at the moment, and I want to share. You just need to leave a comment below between now and Friday, April 8th by 2pm Central time, and I will randomly draw one winner. I will ship anywhere in the world. I will announce the winner via a new blog post around 2pm Central time on Friday, April 8th, and the winner should email their shipping address to eyelineronacat at gmail dot com.

When you leave your comment, tell me what your very favorite indulgence is, or what indulgence means to you.

Good luck!
