My new yet old Fav thing: Venus & Olay Razor
First of all you should know I am a huge fan of both Venus Razors and Olay. Venus is my go to razor. I have never been disappointed in any of the versions that have come out. Yes they are on the expensive side, not going to deny that. I myself have on occasion while shopping for new cartridges have said out loud “Geez they’re so expensive!” This then leads to me making a cheaper purchase. But inevitably after I’m half way through with one leg I chuck the razor because “OH yeah that’s why I spend the money on Venus.” Which then leads to another trip to the store to get what I should have got all along. Which is why, as you can see below, I currently have 3 Venus razors.
Well the new Venus and Olay razor knocks those three down a few notches. I tested it out against my current Venus. On one leg I used my regular Venus and my regular shaving gel, which gave me my standard smooth leg. On my other leg I used just the Venus and Olay, no shaving gel. Big step for me because even on the various razors that claim that you need no shaving gel, I always end up using it. They never have the nice smooth glide I like, or adequate moisturizing. Well I was pleasantly surprised. The Venus and Olay gave me a smooth even glide and super moisturized and silk like legs. All thanks to the 2 Olay Moisture strips on the top and bottom, that also have a nice scent that I think is Shea butter . If you have tried any of the Olay lotions like Quench or Ultra moisture you’ll know the kind of soft and moisturized I’m talking about.
The 5 blades didn’t leave a single prickly which is not a new thing for Venus but still nice. Of course it comes with the usual interchangeable cartridge refills, shower hook and soft grip handle. So essentially the awesome Venus amped up with the trusted Olay moisturizer. Now before you go looking in stores, it isn’t out yet. I fortunately received one in my Influenster February Love VoxBox for free to test and review. Now I feel like the luckiest girl ever. Before it pops into stores head over to www.gillettevenus.com to check it or any of the other Venus Razors out . If you haven’t tried a Venus pick this one up as soon as available and you won’t look back.
Last Is truvia Nature’s Calarie-Free Sweetner. I’m unsure about this particular one as i use Splenda. Yes i know it isn’t the healthiest but it’s the only sweetener that doesn’t leave a weird taste in my mouth. But hey cant hurt to try truvia.
Fourth up and probably the one I’m most excited about Gillette Venus & Olay Razor. Could to Brands be more perfect for each other than Venus and Olay. Olay has been around since 1949, and for very good reason. And venus…Well is there another razor out there. I think not.
Third up and probably one of the top 2 in the box is GHIRARDELLI CHOCOLATE (And yes it deserves the all caps) Creamy Devotion 32% Cacao Milk All Natural Milk Chocolate. Ghirardelli Chocolate is amazing chocolate on the whole so i have no doubt this one will be as well.
Second up is Kiss Nail Dress. I haven’t actually tried the new Nail stickers that have become popular but I’m looking forward to using them. They look pretty easy and I love Kiss products.
First up in my Voxbox is Stash Herbal Tea sampler. It has 9 diffrent flavors: Acai Berry, Blueberry Superfruit, Chamomile, Cinnamon Apple Chamomille, Lemon Ginger, Licorice Spice, Mango Passionfruit, Peppermint, and Wild Raspberry Hibiscus. MMMM Love tea and super excited to try them all.
I received my VoxBox from Influenster today. If u don’t no what Influenster is head on over to http://www.influenster.com/influenster-overview and it will give u complete rundown. Basically when u sign up you can collect bages in various ways. You can then become eligable to receive a voxbox. Voxboxs are filled with various products to test out. After you have tested the products you review them on different social media sites such as Facebook and youtube. It is a free service and I think very exciting. My first one came today so i will give a look at what i received and as soon as I’ve used them enough to form an Opinion I let you know what i think
Sahara desert face
So there is about to be some cussing. Just a vague disclaimer for sensitive eyes. I just tried a new facial scrub. Now my face is drier than the mother fucking Sahara desert. And I can’t find a damn moisturizer that will make a dent in the dryness. Any suggestions for a super duper facial moisturizer. Also I need a good ass full coverage foundation to spackle over this dry skin. Any suggestions there as well.
With my soap purchase i got some free gifts. One was a gift bag that couldn’t have been any moor adorable if it tried.In it was A small soap with the suit of hearts on it, A small fizzy bubble bath with the saying “Pour Me” on it, A Marshmallow Gang lollipop soap, and a Milk Bath Oatmeal tea bag. In addition to the Wonder Licious goodie bag there was also a Gummy Bear Sugar Scrub (smells a little like lemon drops mmmmmm), A sample soap (which last several uses) of True Blood Eric (A very manly sexy scent), and Peachy Keen (Reminds me of Peach rings candy)
Four more soaps from www.skin-a-licious.com . Luck of the Irish showing some irish pride. Similar to Irish Spring soap but lighter. Love the Gold coin soap on top. Oh my Honey is a nice mixture of Honey and oatmeal. Cant wait to use this one. Ozone was a nice surprise. The website didn’t really give much of a description of the scent. But It is a very clean fresh scent. Fresh air and dewy mornings was used on the site and that is exactly what this invokes. The Witching Hour…Oh the witching hour I am in love with this one. Got it as a sample on a previous order and had to get a full size. Described with a fizzy note that is mixed with a burst of berries. Very fruity smell. Love it!
