Project Ten Pan Summer 2015

          I am jumping on the Project Pan band wagon. I have so much makeup that I am using regularly and I really need to use up some of my collection because it is getting seriously out of control. I have selected 16 items which seems a little ambitious for my first attempt now that I am actually typing it out  but I have already taken all the photos so it is happening. If I use up 10 products I am calling it a success. I may or may not replace products as I use them up and if I do I will do so with a like product (lotion with lotion, eyeliner with another eyeliner). I have given myself a loose deadline of two months and if I feel like I need a third I will just keep it going. Not a whole lot more of rules going on here. I will post an update after one month and either a finale or another update after the second month. 

         Now is the point where you go get a beverage, feed the cat and settle in because this in going to be a long one. 




          I tried to pick a mix of products so that they wouldn't take away from each other. Some of these are kind of gimme items and I do feel like I can use quite a few of these up. The note cards are a little crooked in the photos but I marked each product using the bottom of the card to the top of product in the container. I will use the same cards to mark progress in each update. Let's start with hair products, here we go: 




Ecru Acacia Protein BB Cream 
          I got this in an Ipsy bag quite some time ago, it is one of those leave in products that you put on damp hair before you start to style.  It is a decent product but I do not find it does anything amazing for me but I would use it again if I got it in another subscription. There isn't much left to use up but a little goes a long way. I do feel this will be rather easy to use up. 




Marc Anthony Repairing Macadamia Oil Shampoo 
          I bought this when Target was closing because it was severely marked down. It is a good shampoo but I find since it is so moisturizing that using it with a heavy conditioner will make my hair look greasy. While I might use it again I won't be seeking it out, the smell is amazing though. I believe this is another product I won't have a problem using up, it's just a matter of focusing on it. 




Phytorelax Laboratories Argan Oil Treatment 
          I have had this for years and really want to get it used up. I resisted hair oils for a long time but I picked this up at Winners because that's the way I like to try new things. Winners always has great products that I would not necessarily pay full price for but at a much more reasonable price. I like this product and have used it daily in the past and it gives shine and moisture without making my hair greasy. I have put this in my shower so right before I wrap my hair up in a towel I can put it on the ends of my hair. This is a product that I am concerned about using up because I only use two maybe three pumps at a time.





Body




Julep Rock Star Handcream 
          This is a Julep purchase, for a while I was obsessed with this cream. It is just so moisturizing and with the Glycolic Scrub it just makes your hands so smooth and soft. The smell is very strong and to some kind of old ladyish.  There is not a lot left so I do not think it will take long to use up, I won't be able to put it on at work because of the scent but I will put it on my desk at home. 




True Blue Spa Nourishing Yogurt Shower Smoothie in Pineapple Papaya
           Last summer I bought this in a couple different scents at Bath and Body Works and both really smell like a yogurt smoothie you would drink. It is a very thick formula with little scrubby bits, appricote seeds maybe? I think this one will be gone fairly quickly and I have so many others to use after this is gone. 




MacBeth Collection Hand Cream in Peony Pomegranate Blush 
           This is something I just want to use up to get my money's worth out of. It came in a set from Shoppers and it love the smell but can not stand the texture. It goes fine on my legs but on my arms or anywhere else it just feels sticky for a good minute before it absorbs. I will be throwing it out at the end of this product whether I have used it up or not. 





Face 



Julep Bare Face Cleansing Oil
           Another Julep product I was obsessed with. I got one in my Maven box some time ago and used it religiously. It's perfect for removing makeup before you cleanse as it just melts even the most determined goop off your face but is still very gentle. The second bottle has been sitting in various places in my bathroom for probably a year now, time to go. It shouldn't be too hard to use up and it will get me to remove my makeup after work. 





Clean and Clear Blackhead Eraser Cleansing Mask
            Another product I have had for far too long that I want to use up. I don't notice if this really helps blackheads exactly but it does feel like my pores are deep cleaned at least. I get some little bumps on my chin and they come with dry skin, I find this gets rid of that issue immediately. It's a quick mask that at the very least gives you a deep clean. If I don't use this up it will be close to done by the end of this project. 




Dr.  Brandt Pores No More Anti-aging Mattiying Lotion
             Another gimme item, this is a little sample I got from Ipsy. I love getting Dr. Brandt samples since they are always good products and there is no way I will pay the full price for them. Mattiying products are always interesting to me for my oily skin, this one isn't the best thing ever but it makes a little bit of a difference. I will just wear this under my makeup until it is used up. 




Bio Idoine Night Facial Cream
           I tried a Little Life Box a few months ago and loved it, this was one of the products that came in it. I usually fall asleep before I can put in night cream but I do find this makes my skin fill hydrated and firm the next morning without feeling goopy and gross. If I remember to use it I should be able to use this up fairly quickly. 





Make Up 



NYX Love in Rio Eye Shadow Trio
            I have so many eyeshadows from subscription services, this one from Ipsy. My only real goal for this is to hit pan on the center shade, it is a very shimmery taupe colour and I usually use it all over my lid and up to my brow bone. Even if I hit pan on the centre pan I will keep using it until the end of the project. I am not sure if I will keep it after this wraps up or not, it seems a waste to just throw it out.




Julep Blank Canvas Mattifying Primer 
          This is the very first primer I ever tried and I repurchased it a few times, it works pretty well but I feel like there is something better out there. An excellent product but I just want to try new things. 





Tarts Amazonian Clay 12-hour Full Coverage Foundation in Ivory 
           This as my first real high end make up purchase a couple years ago and it was my holy grail foundation. It is really thick and lasted all day without budging in the summer no matter how hot it was. Just the past winter I had dryer skin and it wasn't as amazing. I was exited for summer so I could enjoy this again but it's just not the same and I'm heartbroken. I want to use this up and eventually the back up I had already bought before I realized things were never going to be the same. 




Lord and Berry Eyeliner #1001 Black
            I am not a hug fan of this eyeliner, it's nice I guess but it's so soft that it doesn't really stay in place. It is alright for my waterline but not great. I just want to use it until it all fits in the lid, once this project is done I am tossing this. It isn't a bad product I just have other eyeliners I prefer. 




Too Faced Lip Insurance Lip Primer
           I have had this little sample for a while and I really thought it was almost gone until I pulled up the stopper and scraped it all down. I am no longer confident I will be able to use this up but we will see. I find it does make my lipstick go on smoother, I'm not sure about making it last longer though. 




Julep Lip Gloss in Glowing 
             I so desperately need to work through some of my lip products. I picked this because I have had it for a while and being such a sheer colour I can wear it with any number of outfits or makeup looks. I'm a little concerned I won't get through it but I am sure I will make a dent. 




           I am excited to start my very first Project Pan, I want to use up some items and clear out some of the clutter in my makeup collection. It is just so satisfying to use up these things. Hopefully I don't get too bored with what I have picked. In one month I will post about my progress and challenges. I am most concerned about the lip primer and gloss, the sticky lotion and hair oil I'm not sure if those will end up in the empties but a lot of these products should be done and gone by the time I end this project.

Haul - Hautelook, drugstore, and Winners June 2015

          I am trying to curb my spending on beauty products with mild success at best, here are a few things I have picked up here and there.

Walmart

Marc Anthony Oil of Morocco Argan Oil Hydrating Sulfate Free Body Wash  $4.98
          To say I like the Marc Anthony Oil of Morocco line would be a huge understatement. Every time I wash  my hair I wish I had a body wash in the same scent. I was walking through Wal-mart when I saw this and it literally stopped me in my tracks. Besides argan oil it has a lot of moisturizing and soothing ingredients like shea butter, aloe vera, and vitamin E. You can also add it to running water for "an invigorating spa bath soak". I am way too excited over the body wash; unfortunately I have so many body washes that I am forcing myself to put it away until I use up some of my stash. I will be attempting my very first project pan and this will be my motivation and reward.

L'Oreal Infallible Pro-Matte Foundation in Classic Ivory  $16.96
          I am still on a mission to try every foundation there is, starting at the drugstore brands and working my way up, until I find my perfect match. This is a demi-matte, 24 hour, medium coverage foundation and my oily skin defeated it within six hours. Based on the description online "The micro-sponge technology absorbs excess oil and shine to create a dimensional matte finish without the need for a heavy or caked-on look" I thought this would be a good place to continue my quest but no such luck. It does go on very nicely for a smooth and natural skin finish but it did nothing to absorb oil or shine. I will continue to use this but only on days that are not very hot, with a setting spray and keep powder close. I will not repurchase.

L'Oreal Infallible Makeup Extender Setting Spray $14.96
          I had been walking past this in Wal-mart for some time and finally caved. I normally use Model in a Bottle from Made You Blush which may be a local company but I am not sure. Model in a Bottle works wonderfully,I could go to war and emerge from my hiding spot with minimal makeup damage, my only complaint is that it has a very strong smell somewhere between perfume and medical alcohol. The L'Oreal spray is much lighter, without much of a scent and just feels like you are spraying a fine mist of water on your face. Unfortunately it is so much less effective than Model in a Bottle. It is like Model in a Bottle is for special events while L'Oreal is more of an everyday setting spray. I will use it up but I likely will not be repurchasing it. 




Hautelook

Skyn Iceland White Cloud Spot Corrector with Pigment Lightening Complex 
Regular Price: $45.00
Hautelook Price: $19.00
           First of all what a deal! I love Hautelook, if you don't know it is a flash sale website and you can get amazing discounts on everything from home items, makeup, or men's and women's clothing. I got a $600 watch set for Beast and paid about $60 for it. I had been looking into products to reduce redness and acne scars, I have not had a lot of issues with acne but since I am so fair skinned I mark up easily and they do not go away for some time. This comes out as a medium thickness white lotion that is supposed to fight dark patches, age spots, acne scares and uneaven skin tone in about six weeks. You are meant to use this morning and night after cleansing and before moisturizing.  I was noticing some slight differences but not going to lie I sort of forgot to use it for a couple days/weeks so I will not swear by the results I may have seen but I will get back into the habit of using it. I would pick it up if I saw it on Hautelook again but I would not pay full price for it. 

Skyn Iceland Anti-Blemish Gel with Willow Bark
Regular Price: $15.00
Hautelook Price: $7.00
          Another good deal from Hautelook. There is not a lot to say about zit cream but this stuff does seem to work. I have a hard time judging if this type of product is working on myself but Beast had a beast sized blemish and after the first application it was reduced to half its size, after three it was all but gone. I will repurchase this again when it runs out and I would pay full price for it. Luckily Ipsy frequently send out Skyn Iceland products and that usually means a discount code of some sort.

Hautelook

BH Cosmetics 11 Pcs Pink-A-Dot Brush Set
Regular Price: $28.95
Hautelook Price: $19.00
          How cute are these brushes? I am not even mad that I just found them for a better price. I have been looking at buying a couple brushes but it is just so expensive to buy even just the specific brushes not to mention a decent set. I have tried makeup from BH cosmetics before and liked it so I decided to add these to my Hautelook order. If nothing else they are super cute, happily I have ended up really liking these brushes. The brushes are extremely soft and have not shed a single bristle since I opened them. The set includes a deluxe fan brush, powder brush, angled blush brush, classic foundation brush, tapered shadow blending brush, classic shadow brush, angled shadow brush, small smudge brush, tapered eye liner brush, and a lip brush all in a snap closure hard shell travel case. I use both the top and bottom of the case to store brushes on my desk.





Physicians Formula Organic Wear Tinted Moisturizer in Ivory to Fair $17.99
          I picked this up at the Superstore only because it was 50% off and ended up really liking it. This is 100% free of harsh chemicals, parabens and preservatives and 100% natural origin. Being a tinted moisturizer there is not much in the way of coverage but combined with my usual powder, Maybelline Dream Wonder, it gives enough coverage for a casual day. I would consider purchasing this again. It does smell kind of like celery which is a little strange but the smell does not stay long after application.



Winners
Ever notice that you can only ever find anything at Winners if you either have no money or at least should not be spending money? Every time.

Marcelle Soothing Cleansing Water
Regular Price: $17.95
Winners Price: $7.99
          Now, I had convinced myself that I did not need fancy water to cleanse my face but as I was setting it back down Princess said that she has it and loves it. I will admit here on the internet for everyone to read that my sister was right. This is so gentle but removes makeup better than any other makeup remover I have tried. Even after a face oil and cleanser it still picked up foundation when I thought my face was perfectly clean. This product is paraben, oil, alcohol and perfume free. It also works to tone your skin and removes even my strongest waterproof makeup but afterwards there is no irritation or residue. I think this will become my new makeup remover.

Lise Watier Lip Kiss Crayon Gloss in Pink Jelly
Regular Price: $18.00
Winners Price: $7.99
          I need another lip product like I need a hole in my head but there was no passing this up. I have wanted to try Lise Watier products for sometime but was avoiding splurging, I was missing out. This goes on as almost a light dusty rose but as it fades it leaves behind a bright pink stain. It it truly a moisturizing gloss and I am in love, it is not sticky, does not feather and has serious lasting power. My only complaint is that it has to be sharpened. I have not yet had to do so but hopefully it sharpens without any trouble.

Empties #4 April 2015

          This empties post is a lot of bath products and not a lot of makeup items. I have become rather obsessed with organizing, reorganizing and using up my huge stash of bath/shower products. They are just so much easier to use up than makeup. Alrighty, here we go:


          Like I said, a lot of bath products. 

Vanilla Bean Bubble Bath from Bath and Body Works
           I was not a huge fan of this scent, it just didn't smell like the usual vanilla scent. It was not unpleasant but I just found it too strong I guess. 

French Lavender Sea Salt Body Scrub by Thymes Essentials 
           I already have another in the shower, I really loved this but the last couple times I used it I noticed it's really stung my legs. If you have dry skin I would not recommend this to you. I will try another scrub once the one in my shower runs out.

I Love Raspberry and Blackberry Bubble Bath and Shower Gel
            I bought this such a long time ago from Shoppers, probably about two years ago. It smelled great, was a fine bubble bath and body wash, my only wish is that the scent would stay on my skin after leaving the shower. 

Peony Pomegranate Blush Bath Salts, The Macbeth Collection by Margaret Joesphs 
           This was one of the items in a set that was on sale at Shoppers, I did not include it in a haul because some of it went to the gift pile. The bath salts were nothing to write home about, pretty cheap really but they smelled amazing. They smelled like a sweet, floral perfume. I am sitting here smelling the empty container. 

Fruit Frappe Grapefruit with Gooseberry Exfoliating Shower Gel by Upper Canada Soap and Shea Butter and Caramel Body Polish by Nirvana Spa
          These were both good products but didn't send me offer the moon, I like my exfoliants to remove at least two layers of skin so they were just too gentle. They both smelled great and were good body washes though. 






          I also used up some hair products. 

Oil of Morocco Argan Oil Volume Hairspray by Marc Anthony 
         I got this from Ipsy and I did like it, I found it was better for when I was wearing my hair down to keep it straight and frizz free. I know I sound like a broken record but it also smelled great. 

Precision Foam Colour in Brilliant Brunette by John Frieda 
          Does anyone else feel like there is an actual Marc Anthony and an actual John Frieda and they are in a huge hair care feud? No. Just me? Ok, moving on. This is the easiest home hair colour I have ever used, the foam is thick and there was more than enough to cover all my hair. Really easy to use, no drips and great results. 

450 Blow Out Blow Dry Spray by Sexy Hair
          Another item I got from Ipsy and I loved this. It just leaves your hair feeling soft, shiney, protected and it really seems like my hair dried faster. I think I will go online to order more because I can not find it in stores around here. I would also like to order the beach spray from the Healthy Sexy Hair line.

Rosemary Mint Cleansing Conditioner by Renpure Solutions 
           While I was using this I really enjoyed it but I have switched back to regular shampoo after Target closed and I couldn't find it anywhere else. I was having such a hard time with my hair, it was falling out more than usual, it was always limp and I couldn't do anything to it without it getting greasy and this product fixed all of that. Also if you are looking for a dupe of the Wen Cleansing Conditioner this is far cheaper, under ten bucks. I still reccomend this it just became inconvenient for me to keep using it. 

Malibu Heat Beach Waves Hair Mist from Bath and Body Works
          This was the first beach spray I tried and one of the best. I got this from BBW a few years ago but have not seen it there again. It gives beach waves without crunchiness or making my hair stiff plus it smells like coconut and pineapples. If I saw this at BBW again I would buy a couple bottles. 






          Some face/skin care products I used up, a couple of which I have been trying to use up for quite a while. 

Vitamins E, A & D Moisturizing Cream from GNC
            Go buy this. Seriously, such a good hand cream. I bought this because my hands were so dry this winter and this healed them completely. I used half the first tube before I read the directions and they suggest using it as a facial moisturizer and primer. Turns out this is the best primer I have used and you can buy three tubes for under 5 bucks. I have them everywhere, it is quite a thick formula with an almost glycerin feel to it which I do not normally like but this just makes my skin feel so good. It just feels like you are healing dry spots and doing something good for your skin. 

Mary Kay TimeWise Microdermabrasion Step One
            My office-mates mother in law used to be a Mary Kay lady and had a whole bunch of samples to hand off to us, bless her. This was one of the best things. We got this and the lotion that is Step Two. I love microdermabrasion products, it just feel so good to scrub all the gunk off your face and out of your pores. This formula was so thick and full of fine little exfoliants and fragrance free. I loved this but the collection is rather pricey and I don't want to get a Mary Kay last because that would mean talking to someone new. 

Tea Tree Skin Clearing Foaming Cleanser from The Body Shop 
          I actually just used up a second one of these as I had two on the go for whatever reason. It really cleared up my skin but it is very drying as well so I switched to something less intense but I would reccomend this to someone having trouble controlling blemishes and oil.

Skin Genesis Skin Perfecting Toner by L'Oreal 
          I have had this for a disgusting amount of time. It didn't really do much for me. I would not repurchase. 







         I only have two makeup products that I used up and one I am tossing. 

Revlon Photoready BB Cream in Light Pale 
          This item is almost used up but I have had it so long that it has separated and won't mix back up. This was a decent BB Cream, very liquidy and not much for coverage but just sort of smoothed out my complexion. I used this when I was in Jamacia for days when we weren't in the pool all day because it had SPF 30 and I was extremely paranoid about getting sunglasses tan lines. I wouldn't repurchase as it isn't great for oily skin. 

Julep Blank Canvas Mattiying Eye Primer 
          This was an excellent eye primer, it went on smoothly and was just a light beige colour. They should really make eye primers clear so all skin colours and tones could use them eh? I mean most primers are, why not eye primers? Anywho, good product, probably expensive since it's from Julep.

Maybelline Dream Wonder Powder in Porcelain Ivory 
          I love this powder. I use it over my makeup to set my foundation, a necessary step for oily skin, but I have also used it by itself for light coverage. This is a staple in my routine, it doesn't leave my skin looking powdery or overly made up, it just glides on and smooths everything out. Love this, I have repurchased a couple times and will continue to do so. 



On an empties binge? Let me help you out: Empties #3

Haul April 2015 - Julep, Bath and Body Works, Costco, Dollar Store

          This haul is rather scattered, things I have picked up here and there and have just been too lazy to post about. I also bought a few primers to try out but that will be another post. I will link that below once it's up.


Oil of Morocca Argan Oil set by Marc Anthony. $19.99ish
          I saw this originally in a YouTube video by Ashley Elizabeth and as soon as she said this was at Costco for like 20-24 dollars I was on a mission. There is a giant shampoo with a pump, super excited about that, a conditioner and an oil treatment. I promised myself that I would not open these until I used up one set of the three shampoo and conditioner sets I have in the shower. Life determined that was a lie. I have been having issues with frizzyness and static and it is all a distant memory. I like this line so much that I bought the next item.





Oil of Morocco Argan Oil Perfect Blowdry Smoothing Cream sale $9.99
         This says it will keep your hair smooth for three days, I'm sure that is true but there is no way I could go more than a day without washing. This cream is thicker than any other blow dry cream I have tried so the first time my hair was a little greasy but since then it has made my hair smooth, soft and more manageable throughout the day. My one problem is that the pump is broken, slightly inconvenient but I just put some in a jar because I do not return things. 





Clinique Kit $29 at Shoppers
          I have declared war on my oily skin. I was looking at some of the products in the shoppers when a very helpful lady suggested the Clarifying Lotion aka toner, get over yourself Clinique. Now apparently Clinique has a rating system of one through four in regards to its skin care products. I don't know what all of them are but I am a three which as far as I gather is when your T-zone is oily but the rest of your face is "comfortable". I picked up this kit so I could try a few different products. Included is Liquid Facial Soap in the Oily Skin Formula, Clarifying Lotion 3, Dramatically Different Moisturizing Gel for combination oily to oily skin. On the box it says after ten days of regular use twice a day I will see the Clinique Glow, have fresher and more balanced skin. I only use it once a day since I am pretty committed to my nighttime routine but I have still noticed a difference in my skin, the oily bits are starting to balance out but I do have a couple dry spots that are persistent. I will buy the toner once I use it up, I really think I owe most of the improvement to that perticular product. I will likely purchase the the fash wash once I use up the Neutrogena I just bought. I'm less sold on the lotion but I am still glad I got it in the kit, very light weight and goes on smoothly under makeup. 






13 Cartridges of Schick Intuition razor blades $24ish maybe
          This is my favourite thing from Costco, I've never done the math to see if this is a good deal or not but I am only going to buy them like this because I just want a bunch at once. It also comes with a new handle thinger and those things get gross after a while. I also keep a spare for anytime I am forced to travel and then I can just throw it out rather than bring a wet razor back with me. I recommend this product if you are a clutz and shouldn't be trusted with blades, it is the safety scissors or razors. My life has likely been prolonged because of this wonderful product.




Dual Action Complexion Brush 
          I don't even remember where I got this, Walmart I think. I was under ten bucks and has changed my life! Such a good product, my face has never been this clean. The side you can see has little rubber nubbies that are supposed to get all the gunk out of your pores, the other side is softer, longer white bristles that really scrub your face and foam up your face wash. I have not washed my face without this since I bought it. 






        I realized I had quite a few points or "Jules" from Julep so I decided to use them and I got:

Brilliance Glycolic Hand Scrub 
         I have gotten this in Maven boxes before and really enjoy it. I have made it part of my manicure routine as well as my after the gym routine to avoid callouses from the weights. According to the box "Natural apricot seeds whisk away dirt, oil, and dead skin cells while a potent concentration of glycolic acid works to fight signs of aging." Apricot seeds are my favorite exfoliant, everyone has a has favorite exfoliant right? They are just the perfect size and do not dissolve. If you are looking for a cheaper but still super effective exfoliant the Saint Ives Apricot Scrub is my absolute favorite, very rough and the formula is really thick so you really feel like you are getting all the dead skin off. 

Crystal Nail Files 
          When you purchase something at Juelp you can pick up to three "add ons" which are just random things they offer at a cheaper price. These nail files are normally around $13 dollars if I remember correctly and I believe it was $5.99 to add these one. Why not? As my friend and occasional manicurist Melly can attest to I despise having my nails filed, absolutely hate it. I just can not stand the feeling of the file dragging across my nails, especially if it lifts up at the same time. Ew. Just can not handle it. These are a lot more gentle than most files but still effective. They are made of glass and seem like they will be really long lasting. 




Bath and Body Works

          It was pre-destined that I was to spend too much money at BBW. I was at the office on pay day and my office mate got  an email saying there was a 50% off sale on Aromatherapy. Well damn. 


 Eucalyptus Spearmint Body wash and Foam Bath from the Stress Relief line at BBW
          This product is the reason I was so excited about the sale. That bottle is $13 dollars regular price, foolish. It is my favorite body wash ever, it just smells so natural and fresh and it really does help relieve stress. This also makes a decent bubble bath, not as good their "luxury bath" but it's still my favorite way to relax, I could just huff this all day. I was going to buy two of these but then I smelled:

Jasmine Vanilla Body Wash and Foam Bath from the Sensual line at BBW
          Jasmine is a scent I have been really loving lately and Beast was encouraging me to buy from this line haha. Seriously though it really does have a sexy scent. I am a big fan, I use this when I want more of a feminine scent. 

Lavender Chamomile Pillow Mist from the Sleep line at BBW
           I do not know how I have been able to sleep before this magical elixir came into my life. Since I am still crushing on all things lavender scented I snatched this up. Amazing. I just love this, it is so relaxing and just makes me let go of any worries I take to bed with me right away. I will buy this in bulk when it goes on sale.





Foaming Hand Soaps 26 for $0.78 (or something like that)
          You just can not go to a BBW sale without leaving with more hand soap than you need. I picked up Sunshine and Lemons for the kitchen as kitchens should smell like lemons, Hawaiian Pink Hibiscus, Honolulu Sun which smells just like the resort in Jamacia i went to and Island White Pineapple. I really like these soaps, I prefer foam soaps but the gelly exfoliating ones are also lovely. 



Travel/Trial Size Nourishing Hand Cream in Hawaiian Pink Hibiscus and Maui Mango Mai Tai
          Now these I had no intention of buying but when Beast Grabbed a bag I guess these were in it. Oh well, I might use them but for now they are in the gift pile in my closet. They do smell amazing but I am just not a huge fan of the lotions from BBW  they just do not moisturize as much as I would like and I find they do not absorb well.





Can't get enough of me? Check this out:
