Bath and body products are my go – to for anyone – boyfriend’s mom, my own mom, best friend . . . or save it in the back of the closet for yourself or when the time to make a gift basket arises. A while ago, I went into The Body Shop to learn about their holiday collection. I love what they do for the holidays as there is always an adorable theme behind it and also a good cause as well!
HOLIDAY GIFTING: FRESH BEAUTY 2017
Another Fresh holiday season… 😉
I have a multitude to catch up on since I’m back from my vacation (travel posts will be up soon, stay tuned!) – and diving into holiday products is one of them! Every year I review a few seasonal sets from Fresh and I think this year the packaging is definitely my favourite!
Lush Spa New York City: The Comforter
With all the walking I’ve done in Disneyworld and all the walking I know that will happen in New York, I’d thought it would be essential to book a spa at New York City’s Lush Spa. If you’ve been on here before, you’d know I love using Lush products and I often use it at home as a treat. So of course I’d be down to have someone use a bunch of Lush products on me while feeling relaxed.
Philosophy Clear Days Ahead: cleanser, acne treatment pads, moisturizer, spot treatment
My forehead is having another “screw you whitney” phase and it’s breaking out faster than me running for free food. Last year (which is already more than four months ago) I received the Philosophy Clear Days Ahead collection. I’ve been trying it long enough to write a review that I feel comfortable about. I rarely use everything from one collection so it was neat to have this experience; and my breakouts are active enough that this line aligned with my skincare problems.
I thought my “stress” from writing the engineering professional practice exam (WHICH I PASSED!) triggered breakouts. Not the case though, breakouts have not subsided one bit. 🙁 🙁

Mary Kay Christmas 2016: Be Delighted Set, Satin Hands Pampering Set, Mini Eye Brush Set
No I’m not listening to Christmas carols; the Fantastic Beasts soundtrack is playing in the background though which is my kind of holiday jam. Or Hedwig’s theme. The holiday mail arrived quite early in the year (thank you imaginary Hedwig!), as I got to play around with these products since October…and now we’re only a few mere weeks away from 2017. I have an exciting post on the Mary Kay winter makeup collection, but there are also some really nice gift sets for the mother/teacher/friend!
