Finding new ways to save money is a subject that’s always on my mind. This year I’m going to try to begin my holiday shopping extra early in an attempt to keep as close to my budget as possible.
I was looking at ULTA and they have these ULTA Spa Sponge Collections that include 3 different sponges – a mesh pouf, a loofah, and a natural cut body sponge. I like a mesh pouf because you can use a very small amount of body wash and still get a ton of suds. Using less product saves money. These sponge sets are …read more
