Why I'm in love with you- Winter Body Care

Winter's coming up!
It's getting colder and colder!
BRRR!


We start to bring out the old sweaters, those fuzzy slippers, the socks, and put away those shorts and flip flops. Well, it's also time to switch to something more hydrating so you don't get dry skin this winter.

BODY CARE:
-body wash/bar soap
-lotion
-body scrubs
-hand cream
-foot cream

My picks!:

I HAVE to say that I do bathe with a bar soap. And not just any bar soap. DOVE!


It moisturizes me so WELL! And it doesn't leave my skin feeling dry or itchy either(: A different edition, that does about the same thing, is the Nutrium Moisture Body Wash collections.
I love it! And I barely go a shower without it. On some occasions, I use some other things too:

For Dry Skin:

Aveeno Positively Nourishing Hydrating Body Wash

It leaves my skin really soft, and no itching, no dryness..nothing! It smells SOOO amazing too!
And it's got some amazing lotions from the same collection too!


For extremely dry and itchy skin:

Eucerin Calming Body Wash Shower Oil

I've used it during the summers, when my legs and arms were so itchy! I went to the doctor, and she recommended this and the matching Calming Creme Lotion. It helped me wonders!


For Normal skin that needs a little bit of....GLOW:
Rainbath® Deep Moisture Body WashRainbath Deep Moisture Body Wash

I used this last winter and it was really good! I felt like my skin was sooo soft and smooth. However, I used this in summer to relieve my itchy legs and arms, but it wouldn't work. So, if you have normal skin that just needs a little bit more GLOW or refreshing, then this one's for you.

Which ones are always with me: Dove Bar Soap, Aveeno, and Eucerin Calming Body Wash Shower Gel



Lotions:

For Dry/Sensitive Skin (or any kind really!):


Cetaphil Moisturizing Lotion

This is some REALLY good stuff. It leaves my skin so baby touchable. It moisturizes very well...there's so much to say! But the main point, is that it works for ANYONE. Teens, middle age, seniors..anyone! It'll moisturize and keep your skin soft and smooth!


For relaxing:

Aveeno Positively Nourishing Soothing 24 Hour Body Moisturizer

This is the match to the Aveeno Body Wash mentioned above. This smells sooo good! Amazingly good! It'll wake up your senses and give you the smell of those heavenly flowers!


For Repairing Skin/Itchy, Dry Skin:

Eucerin Calming Creme

I cannot tell you how much I LOVE this product. It has oatmeal and other good super power moisturizes in it, so it moisturzies and fixes your skin in a wink!


What's always with me: Eucerin Calming Creme and Cetaphil Moisturizer


And SCRUBS:

Body Scrubs are the ones that get help get rid of those dead skin cells faster, so it relives more glowing and healthier skin. And just like you exfolaite with scrubs on your face, you need to do that to your body too.

Sugar Scrub Body ExfoliatorNeutogena Sugar Scrub Body Exfoliater

This is the one that I will always use! I love ittt! Every time I use it, and run out of the shower, my skin feels so good...like a baby's butt! ha ha ha! I lovee it!

Deep Sea Cosmetics Dead Sea Relaxing Body ScrubDead Sea Relaxing Body Scrub

This one is also a main favorite! It does a really good job, however I use the Neutrogena one more often then I use this one! But I love this a lot too, it relaxes you a lot, and it feels like your skin is yelling "FINALLY!" hahahah!

What's always with me: Neutrogena Sugar Scrub


Hand Cream: (just one!)

Aveeno Intense Relief Hand Cream

This one like never comes off! It's non greasy, pretty lightweight and it even lasts during hand washing! I will, probably , never ever use another hand cream!


Foot Cream (just one!):

Holiday Shea It Isn't So Shea Butter Foot Cream - True Blue® Spa - Bath & Body WorksHoliday Shea It Isn't so Shea Butter Foot Cream (Bath and Body Works)

I love this stuff! And yes the picture is the one of the holiday edition. And I'm about 99.8% sure that the regular one and this one are exactly alike! Give it about a week. Last year, I believe, my feet were dry and almost cracked. So I went to Bath and Body Works, I got this stuff, and I was pretty sure it wasn't gonna work. I took my shower, got in my pj's, rubbed this all over my feet and went to sleep. The next day...WALA! Soft feet! You HAVE to try this!


Wow! This is pretty much...
things that I can't live without!
Whew! haha

Haha well that's my list righttt thereee!

St. Ives Gentle Apricot Scrub, St. Ives Green Tea Cleanser and Eucerin Calming Lotion Reviews

..
I tried out 3 products and I'm gonna go ahead and tell you if they WORKED for me or not.

My skin type: Sensitive and dry :(
My face right now has one pimple, and rest of it is pretty clear.

So, I tried out the St. Ives Gentle Apricot Scrub because I heard that it works wonders, but it DID NOT work for me :/
When I used it, NO JOKE, but INSTANTLY I had acne and some breakouts.

So BEWARE! haha
But I mean there are SO MANY people that it DID work for, so if you wanna try it do a PATCH TEST.
A patch test is pretty much when you take a small area of your face, let's say for example your chin, use the product on that area. Now, if you breakout, then you obviously know it's not gonna work for you. If nothing happens so far, then...I guess you could try it out!


St. Ives is an AMAZING brand! I use their body polishes EVERY DAY! And I love their lotion (though I use Jergens). But I guess this one was an OUCH for me. Oh well :/ But if you were thinking of giving this a try, then do the patch test first. It might work for you.

So recommended: Maybe. Depending on the skin type.

Next up, is St. Ives Green Tea Cleanser:


This one worked! For me! I used it on my AM routine (I always do AM when I'm testing things out, so I actually have some time to fix it before tomorrow). It worked pretty well! It didn't do miracles though, but it did leave my skin soft and smooth.

Recommended: Yes

But I just wanna say, this DOES NOT mean that I'm ditching my flour-yogurt cleanser! Haha, I'll never do that! But this is my backup. I always have a backup for homemade things, so let's say I'm on the go, I'm gonna use this. But when I'm home and I have my flour cleanser with me, then that's it. That's my #1 cleanser. But this Green Tea Cleanser is my runnerup/backup.


My Third Review is about the Eucerin Claming Creme Daily Moisturizer. My skin was itching all the time (my arms) in the summer, and I probably used every single lotion that said "MOISTURIZER". Bad choice, I know.

But Eucerin is WONDERFUL.
After every shower you just slather that stuff on, but of course you have to do it everyday, and for some time, do give you wonders.


You can also use the bodywash and the immediate relief lotion if you have extreme itching.

Ah, how I love Eucerin! It's my repair doctor, and when I mess up, it gets me back on the track!
I Lovee! Eucerin!

Ha ha ha ha

Recommended: DEFINITELY

So those are my reviews, but I will tell you, everyone's skin is different, and be sure to do the "little spot on my face" test to make sure that you wont break out or etc.

Byebye(:

Green Tea and Apricots on your face love :D


and P.S. is COLOR not working or what?
Oh and Don't forget to subsribee!
