I love The Body Shop. Seriously.
I really do. I stopped in the other day, which wasn’t smart because I am broke as a joke. But, like, free gift with purchase! So I had to buy stuff.
I picked up the Shea Body Butter, which is amazing. It smells divine, absorbs quickly, and makes my skin so so so soft.
Grabbed the Papaya Body Scrub as well. I love body scrubs in general, and this one is fab. I have terribly dry skin and it just sloughs the dryness away, especially when followed by the lovely shea body butter. Soft skin for the win.
If you know me, you know I’m addicted to lip balms/glosses/sticks. Addicted. I live in jeans and, at any given moment, there are at least two, most likely three, and sometimes 4 different lip products in my pocket. So i bought the mango Lip Butter. They weren’t kidding. It’s almost the same consistency of the body butter but it’s for your lips. It’s a great product. It makes my lips deliciously smooth and soft, and it smells and tastes pretty good to boot (hey, my boyfriend likes it!).
These products were enough to get me the free gift, which came in a cute, lilac-silver metallic clutch. Inside were a Hi-Shine Lip Treatment in a sheer raspberry color (it smells fantastic), a small Camomile Gentle Eye Makeup Remover (which I’ve yet to use but shall soon), a decently sized sample of Aloe Day Cream (which is a great, light mosturizer), and a sample-sized Super Volume Mascara.
I’m gonna have to buy a full-size of the mascara. It’s that fantastic. My lashes are lush and long and it doesn’t clump. At all. No clumps whatsoever. It’s love.
My project for the day, however, included very little makeup. My mother and I have attempted zucchini brownies. They’re out of the oven. I’ll let you know if they’re any good, haha!
