This morning was such a struggle for me! My alarm didn't go off and when I did wake up, I couldn't seem to peel myself out of bed. A happy Friday it was not - so I decided to use some of my favorite things to get me going and I thought I would share them with you!
The shower gel that I use after my workouts (yes I have different shower gels for different moods/needs, doesn’t everyone?) is the best smelling shower gel I have used so far! I usually hate the way verbena smells on me but the added combination of grapefruit and musk in Sonia Kashuk's Yellow Alluriana shower gel is perfect. You can find the entire Yellow Alluriana collection at a Target near you. It will wake you and your senses up.
Since the traffic is usually lighter on Fridays, I decided to pamper myself a bit more and use one of my favorite body scrubs as well. Today I used Flake Away by Soap & Glory since I'll also be scrubbing my tub tonight. I love the way my skin feels after I exfoliate but sometimes, I cannot stand the leftover residue/oil slick some scrubs leave behind. Pulp Friction from Soap & Glory is another option for those on the go. It buffs off those dead layers of skin, turns into a foam, and is a better alternative if you don't want to impersonate James Brown the next time you step into your tub. You could use that by itself and kill two birds with one stone, but why not spend a little bit more time enjoying the little things in life? Plus, the Fruitigo™ fragrance (frozen yuzu, orange oil, and jungle pomelo notes) compliments the grapefruit and the verbena in the Yellow Alluriana shower gel. Follow your exfoliation session with the Butter Yourself body butter, also from Soap & Glory, and your skin will feel like heaven! You can thank me before you place your order on Sephora.com and after you have treated yourself.
Pick up some of these products over the weekend and let me know what you think. Have a great Labor Day weekend beauties!!!
