Another hot week has gone by! I hope you had a great holiday weekend! I enjoyed some sun and fun!
This week I am loving products that are good for my skin and make a difference in it’s appearance. They include a duo of products to rid you of crepey skin, an amazing group of SPF moisturizers from H2O+, a combo hand creme and lip balm, and fab anti-aging skincare:
Crepe Erase Exfoliating Body Polish — This luxurious body scrub is your first step to visibly smoother, firmer, more radiant skin. It’s specifically developed to target dull, saggy, crepey skin on areas like your neck, chest, arms and legs. It’s free of plastic micro beads and uses exfoliators like rice bran wax and lactic acid to gently buff away dead skin cells and other skin-aging impurities for visibly smoother, younger-looking skin. Its fresh, clean fragrance invigorates the senses while leaving your skin lightly scented.
Crepe Erase Intensive Body Repair Treatment — The powerhouse of the Crepe Erase™ system, this deeply hydrating, nutrient-rich formula with TruFirm™ Complex helps to visibly repair and condition the appearance of dry, aging, crepey skin on the neck, chest, arms and legs. It’s developed to help restore your skin’s youthful bounce, and it’s clinically shown to provide all-day moisture for satin-smooth skin. When paired with the Exfoliating Body Polish, it’s clinically shown to improve the look of crepey, sagging-looking skin.
What I think — This set is $39.95 online. The Body Polish is gentle, but really scrubs thoroughly. It leaves my skin very smooth. The Body Repair Treatment is a creamy moisturizer that instantly hydrates and softens. I notice that my skin on my neck is much smoother and look younger.

What I think: These SPF moisturizers from H2O+ are awesome multitaskers! They are your day cream and SPF in one. Right now, the one I am using most is the Aquadefense since it has a SPF of 40. It’s perfect for the summer. I also love the Infinity+ for aging skin, it smooths and softens skin. They all are amazing and theirs one for all skin types!
Votre Vu Bébé Duette ($24 USD) — If one is good, two is better… A Duette sung in perfect harmony. Beautifully moisturized hands always rate in the Top 10 on the charts and Lovely Lips sing sweetly in every language. A clever little pair to keep everywhere – in fact you may want more than one! Includes:
tarte d’amande (almond pie) hand crème — This intoxicating hand crème leaves a soft veil of almond and coconut fragrance lingering on the skin. This succulent recipe of nourishing and protecting sunflower, grape seed and jojoba oils combined with moisturizing and healing aloe, wheat proteins and natural sun filters develops into the perfect treat, anytime of the day.

In the summer, I always want easy care for my hair. And I think that starts with great products, such as easy shampoo, conditioner and styling products.
I was sent the below products for my honest review. They are all products that help clean and keep hair looking great, without a lot of fuss:
Wen Summer Honey Peach Cleansing Conditioner ($40 for 16 oz) – a rich fragrance with warm and indulgent honey that tempers fresh juicy peach. With one product, you replace your shampoo, conditioner, deep conditioner, leave-in, and detangler. All three formulas are designed to work with all hair types and textures.
Wen Mandarin Italian Fig Nourishing Mousse ($42 USD) – This formula has a bright citrus scent tempered with fig, earthy aromas, the scent of florals, woods, and amber. Nourishing Mousse should be applied to soaking wet hair, before or after WEN Styling Creme. Distribute evenly throughout your hair and style as desired.
What I think: First of all, Wen products always smell amazing — really natural and fresh. I love that the cleansing conditioner can be used for the whole body. It leaves hair and body soft and hydrated. It’s easy use for the summer as it is cleansing and conditioning in one step. The Mousse leaves hair soft and swingy, plus it helps keep the style in place.
Art Naturals Argan Shampoo & Conditioner Hair Growth Treatment Duo

Revitalizes hair follicles and supports healthy scalp. Contains multiple DHT blockers, preventing damage and hair loss. Natural, botanical oils and extracts add volume, texture and shine to thinning hair.
What I think: I can really tell that my hair it thinning in the summer. That’s because I pull it back a lot. This combo keeps my scalp healthy and helps prevent hair loss, which I need. I do notice that I lose less hair when I wash it, as I have continued using this. We’ll see if I grow hair, and that would be amazing!
PERT is the original 2-in-1 Shampoo and Conditioner, and it’s still one of the BEST. Here are some of the many varieties it comes in:

What I think: I haven’t used PERT in years, and I was pleased to note that it still has the same fresh scent. There are so many great varieties for all types of hair. My husband always loved this shampoo/conditioner and was so happy to receive some to try. It is leaving his hair soft and smooth! I use it too, but I also add a little extra conditioner. I have been loving the Thickening one. My hair does seem thicker and has lots of volume!
Happy 4th of July! I hope your day is going great!
I have received some gorgeous nail polish lately and want to share some of my favorites starting with a patriotic trio from Lauren B.

Lauren B. Beauty HOLLYWOODLAND ($18 USD) — Pure white has a beautiful simplicity. But what’s best about this crisp-as-a-cotton-sheet hue is its wonderful versatility.

Lauren B. Beauty PCH ($18 USD) — This stunning freshness of opaque cobalt blue hue is tinged with purple undertones, festive, on-trend and instantly lifts your mood.

I can’t believe it’s already July! This year is flying by so fast.
My favorites this week are products for the face and body that smell great and hydrate so well. They include rosewater toner and exfoliators, a Vitamin C peel, gentle skin bath products and sweet smelling body products.
Gülsha – Ultimate Rosewater ($20 USD) — gülsha Ultimate Rosewater, produced drop by drop by the gentle steam distillation of fresh rose petals in pure copper alembics, is more than a rosewater. Usually, rosewater is a by-product of rose essential oil distillation. By keeping the valuable rose essential oil, gülsha has created the Ultimate Rosewater which contains all the vitamins, minerals and essential fatty acids of the precious rosa damascena flower.
Gülsha – Purifying Rose Dust ($20 USD) — enhances the cleansing ritual with this gentle-yet-powerful cleanser and manual scrub you can use daily without irritation. The sulfate-free formula dissolves dirt and everyday impurities. Unique dried rose buds powder based formula activates upon contact with water, releasing mild cleansing surfactants that micro-exfoliate dead cells, instantly leaving skin smoother and brighter. Thanks to pure rosa damascena essential oil with its anti-ageing properties and the toxin absorption capacity of pink clay, the skin is visibly soft, fresh and luminous.
What I think: I use these together by adding the rosewater to the rose dust. It creates a paste. I then add a bit of water to get a foam and massage into my face. Once I rinse it off, my face feels really soft. I also use the rosewater as a toner afterwards. It has a very strong scent, but the rose dust is softly scent, which I like.
The Body Shop Vitamin C Glow Revealing Liquid Peel
The Body Shop Vitamin C Glow Revealing Liquid Peel ($23 USD) –The Vitamin C Glow Revealing Liquid Peel specifically targets pollutants that are left sitting on the skin at the end of the day. This transforming gel-to-peel texture peels away dull, tired city skin for a happy healthy glow. The PH of the gel helps to release surface cells. Contains our most potent Camu Camu Berry. 60 times more Vitamin C concentration than an orange!
What I think: This peel is really fun to use. Apply 1-2 pumps to the face then massage it in for about 20 seconds. The dead skin comes off with the clumps of peel and leaves my skin so soft afterwards. It smells really bright and cleans.
The Body Shop Almond Milk & Honey Bath Milk ($15, on sale for $9) — Formulated to respect your skin’s natural moisture barrier with a delicate yet decadent blend of natural oils, this creamy bath milk gently cleanses, soothes and reduces the sensation of tight, itchy dry skin.

This gentle formula won’t strip your skin of moisture. Enriched with organic almond milk from Spain and Community Trade honey from Ethiopia, Almond Milk & Honey is specially formulated for sensitive, dry skin.
What I think: I love the scent of these bath products! The Bath Milk bubbles nicely and soothes irritated skin. The shower cream is also really gentle on the skin. I love that the ingredients are natural, too.
Zoella Beauty Bath Latte ($8.95 USD) — Indulge in Zoella’s Bath Latte, a deliciously scented, creamy bath and shower milk. Enriched with nourishing sweet almond, cacao and honey, it will leave your skin feeling beautifully soft, silky and smelling totally irresistible.
Zoella Beauty Le Fizz Fragranced Bath Fizzer ($7.95 USD) — This irresistible macaroon scented Zoella Le Fizz Fragranced Bath Fizzer will transform your bath into an indulgent experience.
What I think: The packaging of these products are really fun. The bath latte smells yummy and makes skin so soft. The bath fizzer bar is ingenious, but it doesn’t really fizz much. You have to hold it under running water, and it fizzes a little. And the cosmetic bag is cute, perfect for small makeup items.
