As it gets increasingly cold out, I begin to crave comfort, indulgence, and warmth.
Sadly, just about the only way I’m going to be getting that right now is a good bubble bath, but I’ve found the perfect source.
Philosophy’s Winter Escape is perfect for a little bit of holiday-season self-indulgence.
It includes peppermint Hot Cocoa Shampoo, Shower Gel & Bubble Bath! Why do I love this? It screams holiday yum, but obviously – no calories.
Also included are the incredibly delicious Marshmallow Body Soufflé and Marshmallow Flavored Lip Shine – which will make me smell and taste so kissable, I may have body …read more

It’s not the holiday season with adorable and yet delicious sweet treats!
Check this out: Right now, and through this Thursday, if you visit Philosophy.com, you can get a free deluxe 1oz. Gingerbread Man shower gel with any purchase.
It’s a sweet treat that also just happens to make you smell and taste delicious, yourself! Gotta say, there’s nothing that makes me feel better than a good relaxing bath as holiday season hysteria takes over!
Except maybe a cruise…which I will be on tomorrow!

Who doesn’t love Bliss?
Each product I try, I’m a little more addicted to, and the new Lemon + Sage Soapy Suds Body Wash + Bubbling Bath is super perfect for my bath routine.
You know how smells influence your senses? Like some relax you, some invigorate you, some may even…um…create a sense of excitement…
Well, this is a citrus-scentedbody wash, and it’s undeniably stimulating to the senses, but it’s also super-hydrating: it has glycerin, aloe, and vitamin E.
It’s sold as a body wash, but I like to put a drop in some warm water and make a bath out of it. So …read more

A few nights ago, Tone held a launch party for their brand-new blueberry flavored body wash, and I am instantly hooked.
Aside from getting to hang out with Amber, Felicia, Dina, Sarah, Carolyn, and all the rest of my beauty blogger best buds, we got to enjoy a menu – and an evening – based all around the concept of the blueberry. (You haven’t lived till you’ve enjoyed a cocktail based on a mixture of blueberries and Prosecco.)
But back to the body wash – I must confess I have been SNIFFING it in the shower just about as much as I …read more

I have a tendency to go through body wash very quickly, so I am hesitant to buy the “good stuff” -but then I realize that quality makes all the difference when you are spreading a substance all over delicate skin.
AHAVA’s Mineral Botantic Body Wash is absolutely under the “good stuff” category – at around $20, it’s a little pricier than the drug store brands, but it’s infused with real Dead Sea minerals and plant extracts that will complement your specific body type.
For instance, if you have normal-to-dry skin, you may want to try the Orange/Frangipani: It’s enriched with vitamin …read more

It’s been a few months since I shared my First Impressions on DOVE Beauty Body Wash, Calming Night and now I’m confident that I can give a more objective review.
Finer points of the product are that it did deliver in terms of bath experience and skincare.

Earlier, I met up with my Artistry™ contact to get to know each other better. I had initially met her earlier this week at the opening ceremony of the Philippine Fashion Week.
In the middle of our exchange, we had, of course, talked more about Artistry™. One of the things I found out is a “must-try” rating that the brand’s spa collection has. She was basically mad about it. She had told me that she absolutely loves the scent, which was Pink Grapefruit, and the refreshing feeling after each use. She feels rejuvenated. Fortunately, we were close to Amway’s …read more

DOVE
Beauty Body Wash
Calming Night™
Stress and sleep deprivation can hijack skin’s moisture.
Hence, Calming Night Body Wash. It’s a smoothing, soothing blend of Dove 1/4 moisture cream to renew the skin’s lost moisture and a sensuous fragrance to calm a tired soul.
Use nightly. In skincare — and in soul care — every night is everything.
My friends know just how much of a night person I am. I’m usually up at night and asleep during the day. Poses a bit of a dilemma when there’s an event scheduled in the morning, which I have to attend. I usually end up missing sleep then. …read more
