Beauty Tip v.2

For whatever reason, we’ve never felt completely satisfied with our daily lotion.  Either the smell is too strong, or the lotion is too greasy, or the lotion moisturized feeling doesn’t last, or the little dispenser gets clogged with lotion, or the bottle breaks, or….you get the idea.  That’s why, after all these years, we met our perfect match and we couldn’t be more elated!!  Try Archipelago Sugar Cane & Coconut Sugar Lotion.  It. Is. Love.  The smell is just fragrant enough; the lotion is just silky enough…we know you’ll be a happy customer.  $25 and worth it.

Favorite Things #17: L'Occitane Hand Cream

L’Occitane Verbena Cooling Hand Cream Gel is “hands down” the most lovely lotion we’ve ever discovered.  Stumbled upon it in a hotel sample, and now we can’t get enough.  It smells so good, but with no hint of the Bath & Body Works scents that make us nauseated and remind us of peace sign necklaces from Claire’s and contact paper in lockers (Isa – just to be clear, those references are meant negatively).  Plus, the product is so so good!  It doesn’t make your hands feel greasy, but they stay soft all day.  Best lotion ever.  Hands down.
