Products I've Recently Used Up
In attempts to use up the items that have piled up in my bathroom, I have made a conscious effort to actually USE the things I have. I always find myself in a drugstore perusing the aisles for things I don't necessarily need only to end up at the register purchasing a gang of newly released makeup products or items mentioned by friends and random Instagramers. Listed below are a few things I have actually used up to the last drop. You'll see a trend in the products mentioned below as they are of daily use. Also, keep reading to see how you can enter a cute little giveaway that I partnered with two of my favorite Philly girl bloggers; Tisa over at The Gold Curve and Kelly of A Kelective Muse .
Korres Wild Rose Buff Cleanser - this cleanser has small beads great for gentle daily exfoliation. It's pretty expensive these days. I remember paying $20 or $22 for it and now it's priced at $28...not in a rush to repurchase solely on the price increase
Fresh Soy Face Cleanser - this is a great cleanser. It aids in melting away your makeup as well
Burt's Bees Honey & Grapeseed Hand Cream - best hand cream EVER! Thanks to my friend Lauren for putting me on to this
Dove Go Sleeveless deodorant - this was ok but I will probably purchase a fresh or powder scent next time. I had the sensitive skin one and they normally have no scent or fragrance
Caudalie Divine Oil - this was only a small bottle. It was nice but not sure I would spend extra to get the full size. There is a Shea Moisture oil another friend told me about that I'm going to look into
Olay Complete All Day Moisture Cream - love this stuff! I have repurchased and love it. It has SPF as well which is always great for the skin. It's lightweight and doesn't leave an oily finish after applying. I recommended this to a friend in Cali because the weather was drying her skin and she loves it! This is my pick for the giveaway; see below for deets .
