Philosophy ‘When Hope Is Not Enough’ Omega 3-6-9 Replenishing Oil helps to stimulate your skin’s natural process of renewal and regeneration.  Best used in the evening when your body is at rest, this booster can be used alone or in your face cream.  If you do peels or exfoliation of any kind, this is also excellent as a treatment to soothe irritation.

The Rundown:

If your skin exhibits any of these symptoms you should consider giving this a whirl…

I don’t know about you, but my skin falls into more than one of those categories!  The good thing about this is Philosophy is very decidedly no nonsense with it’s approach to skin care.  They use science, and I love it when companies can back up their claims with research and numbers.  Now, don’t be afraid of the word “oil”, this is not like slathering your face in crisco.  This is a treatment that can be used on all skin types and a little goes a LONG way.

Find this and other Philosophy products at Nordstrom, Sephora stores nationwide and philosophy.com

Stay Pretty!!

The Rundown:

• 2 oz Purity Made Simple
• 5 oz Kiss Me Red (my most FAVORITE lip balm…ever)
• 1 oz Time On Your Hands
• 2 oz Amazing Grace Bath & Shower Gel
• 1 oz Soul Owner

Stay Pretty!!

The Rundown:

• 3-in-one bubble bath, bodywash & shampoo (LOVE…)
• Lip Gloss (love this..)
• Body Butter
• Salt Scrub

The body butter actually has shea, mango and cocoa butter to soften your skin!

Stay Pretty!!

It contains properties of omega 3, 6 and 9 essential fatty acids to restore and condition dry, irritated skin. It has a light scent (nice…) and multiple antioxidants/peptides to protect the skin from stress.  I have been using it UNDER my body cream and I have noticed a difference in the texture and dryness level over the last few weeks.

So although I know I should give up the hot showers, this will keep me from drying out.

Stay Pretty!! (and moisturized)

Suds your cares away with this yummy incarnation of a desert favorite.  High foaming formula produces TONS of bubbles and smells like the real thing.  This will have you feeling fresh and relaxed PLUS the bright green color will look FAB in your shower.

Shower Pretty!!

Shower For The Cure contains a touch of milk proteins and fruit essences, it smells delightful and if you are a fan of these yummy shower creams (they are 3-in-one shower gel/shampoo/bubble bath but they are very rich and creamy). you will love this one too…just like me.

Give Pretty!!
