Feburuary Favorites

Grace Davidson Friday, March 1, 2013

I know I'm kind of 'late' for this post but I still want to share with you. My February was great. I got to rest more, spend more time with my puppy, and went to fishing a lot! Although I am looking forward to do more things in March for example like Vegas trip,  see my best friend that I haven't get to see for years, more fishing, and update the kitchen + yards stuff..Anyways, let's go back to the point..

This is my third bottle that I've re-purchased. I just love the scent, how it makes my hair smooth and shine, and easy to use.  I usually use it at the tip of my hair when it's tangled or hard to comb. Especially when I use hair straightener, I use it before I start straighten my hair.

How to use: Dispense 1 pump of serum, or as much as needed for your hair type, into your hands. Apply uniformly to damp or dry hair. Do not rinse. For the sleekest look, style using brush and blow dryer.

  I purchased this when I went to the K-town in L.A. I used to like The Face Shop when I was in Korea. Especially when i was teen just because the price was cheap but great quality products. Still it is a great products! I was glad I got it because as it described, well hydrating my face. I'm thinking to get a full set when I'm done using it.

I've always loved this body lotion and been using it for years. Still it is my favorite! When I use this body lotion, It smells so good and stays for long, I don't need any drop of perfume. Also my skin feels like a silk after a week of using it!

 I got this as a gift when my dad went to Germany for work. He bought me a full set of this Agatha Ruiz De La Prada Lip Balms and I thought I will never be able to use it by myself. So I gave it some to my friends and mom. I like this one especially Tutti Frutti because unlikely from the other ones, it has no color. Just white and smells like a bubble gum! I sometime use this on my cuticles. Love it! 
Thank you Dad
Description: Agatha Ruiz lip balms come to us from all the way from Spain. This creative and idealistic creation from Ruiz herself, manages to set trends and claim international fame. These vibrantly colored, super-fun lip balms are extremely effective and go on so silky. Throw one in your favorite bag, Agatha Ruiz De La Prada lip balms will happily go anywhere you do! The glory of fruit punch in a tin plus Vitamin E!

  3. Ditto - I use Some Kinda Gorgeous as a concealer, too! It's great to cover pimples and post-pimple pigmentation. Stays there all day and doesn't cake! Benefit should think about marketing it as a concealer. I love it more than Boi-ng.

    1. In my opinion, the body shop's body lotions are the best..
      Bio-oil is little greasy when you first apply on your skin but then the greasiness goes away really quick. I was scared because I don't like greasy stuff just like you and the word oil made me thought ewww. But this bio-oil is so awesome, you should try it! xx

  7. I think I might have to buy that lotion from the Body Shop. I've been tempted to buy lotion there before but I wasn't sure if I wanted to splurge and spend $20+ on it. I'm sold now!
