TONE BRAZILIAN GLAM BODY WASH | BEST DRUGSTORE BODY WASH

October 4, 2017 & Leave a Comment

Hi there! Happy Wednesday!

I hope that you’re having a wonderful week! Thank you, as always, for reading my blog!

What It Claims

Infused with Brazil Nut Oil, this moisturizing formula will make your skin feel smooth, and look beautiful.

My Thoughts

If you’re a regular reader of this blog, you know my all-time-favorite body wash is the Caress Evenly Gorgeous Body Wash Burnt Brown Sugar and Karite Butter but the bright packaging of the Tone Brazilian Glam Body Wash caught my eye at the grocery store (good job, Tone!) so I decided to give it a try. I am IN-LOVE with the scent! It has a tropical scent that is really pleasant, and I even noticed it lingering on my skin after I was out of the shower, which gives it bonus points for me. This lathers easily, and does feel moisturizing on the skin. I will continue to buy this product when I want a shower gel or body wash, but when I want an exfoliating body wash I will stick with my tried and true Caress Evenly Gorgeous.

My Routine

I wet my loofah and add a quarter sized amount (a little of this body wash goes a long way) of the Tone Brazilian Glam Body Wash. I start with my legs and work my way up.

Damage Remedy+ Coconut Miracle Oil OGX Shampoo Review

March 20, 2017 & Leave a Comment

Hi there! Happy Monday! And HAPPY SPRING!

A couple of weeks ago I shared my all-time favorite heat protectant to use before heat styling (read it here), which just happens to be a drugstore product, and I thought I would continue my Leah Tackles Hair series with another drugstore item that is new to my rotation, but is so far holding its own.

Damage Remedy + Coconut Miracle Oil OGX Shampoo

Why I Love It

First of all, I’ll admit that the packaging was very enticing to me and once I smelled it I immediately tossed this coconut scented shampoo into my shopping cart. This shampoo has a blend of coconut oil, tiare and vanilla bean extracts to help give hydration to my color treated and heat styled hair.

My Routine

I always go at least every other day, and sometimes I go two days before washing my hair and so I usually end up washing my hair three times per week. I use this twice per week and a purple shampoo for blondes on the third washing day each week.

YOU NEED TO TRY THIS BODY WASH! UNDER $5

Hi there! Happy Wednesday!

Today I want to share one of my “holy grail” drugstore items that I always repurchase and always have on hand. Be sure to let me know your favorite products in the comments section because I love finding new amazing things.

Caress Evenly Gorgeous Body Wash

I prefer this over other higher end body scrubs and body washes that I have tried and I always repurchase this. This is an exfoliating body wash which makes it great for sunless tanning prep or just a good deep clean, but it’s also gentle enough that it can be used daily. I like all of the scents, but my favorite is the Burnt Brown Sugar and Karite Butter. I love this because it leaves my skin feeling smooth, clean, and it’s super affordable!

Thank you for reading! Have a wonderful rest of your week and HAPPY NEW YEAR! I cannot wait for 2017! Cheers love! xx

MY FAVORITE DRUGSTORE LIPSTICK!

October 12, 2016 & Leave a Comment

Hi there! Happy Wednesday!

I am absolutely loving wearing lipstick right now and while I love liquid lipsticks and stains, right now I have been reaching for good ole fashioned lipsticks. I have lipsticks that I love from both the drugstore and from higher end brands, but today I wanted to share you the one that I love beyond all others. I haven’t tried every lipstick shade from this line (not even close!) but anytime I want a certain shade I turn to this line because they have never steered me wrong. I do use my Homemade DIY Honey Almond Lip Scrub every few days especially as the weather gets cooler. I also love the Bonnie Bell Lip Smacker Tsum Tsum lip balms at night and dabbed on before I apply my lipstick.
