MyChelle Deep Repair Cream

May 7th, 2010 3 comments

I’m excited to have another LOVE IT night cream in my arsenal. I think this product is especially good for normal, dry and combination skin and, like I mentioned above, can even be used on some oily skin types. It feels fresh, smells great and can help your skin maintain its youthful glow longer…(click post title for more details)

Weleda Skin Food

March 28th, 2010 No comments

I first heard about Weleda when I was in college. I hurt a muscle somehow and my European friend gave me the last of her Weleda Arnica tincture to apply to it and it totally worked. I hunted for it a bit on the website but the medical part is really deep and I don’t remember exactly which one I had. Since then, I’ve noticed Weleda products here and there – when babysitting, the baby products; when hanging out with my hippy friends, the strange salt toothpaste (that I’m fascinated by but can’t bring myself to pay $7 for); on my seemingly eternal hunt for curl taming hair products, the Rosemary Hair Oil (review of that coming later). Then, I was poking around at Target and saw their Skin Food in the section with the Juice Organics and other more natural products. I actually clapped and said “Yay! Weleda!” when I saw it and then had to get a tube of it the size of a tube of lip balm, just to try… (click post title for more details)

Zia Men HydraClean Face Wash

March 21st, 2010 2 comments

My boyfriend has really great skin and doesn’t usually need any of my help. Sometimes, however, he feels dry or wants something to wash his face with that isn’t as intense as whatever I’m using at the time. We were at Rainbow Grocery and I thought that this Zia product HydraClean Face Wash, for men, would work out for him. And it did for a little while… (click post title for more details)

I like to spend time in the product section at Rainbow Grocery just looking at the options. I’ve noticed Humphreys Non-Drying Cleansing Gel a few times and finally decided to try it. They make a witch hazel toner which I haven’t tried but I like witch hazel toner so I figured I’d give it a shot… (click post title for more details)

Origins Ginger Souffle

February 14th, 2010 No comments

When my favorite perfume was discontinued, I started hunting around for a new one. I got many different testers of new perfumes from Sephora that didn’t work for me. Then I remembered that Ginger Perfume from Origins that, about 5 years ago, I’d put on my list of perfumes to try. This isn’t a review of that because I find perfumes to be rather personal and as hormones & lifestyle change, so does one’s preference in perfume; at least, that’s how it’s been for me. I always recommend getting testers and wearing it for a few days before deciding to buy. Or, buy it from a place that will allow returns of used perfume (like Sephora, Macys, Nordstrom).
What this review is about is one of the samples I was given after I purchased said perfume (they didn’t have testers, but they do have a great return policy at the Macys location!)… (click post title for more details)
