Say Yes to: Yes to Cucumbers Facial Towlettes

Last summer it seemed like facial towlettes became the must have accessory (other than your favorite sunscreen) for your skin.  At first I was skeptical but slowly it began to grow on me and now I'm not sure I can live without them.  I sporadically started using them in the summer but find myself using them more and more in the cooler/colder months.  Most of the time when I come home from work I will immediately take one out and clean all of the make-up from my face.  Then I just allow my skin to breathe.
No soap, no moisturizer, no eye cream, no exfoliation...nada.

It actually makes my skin feel great!  I used to feel guilty about tossing the used towlette away, but then I found out they are biodegradable!  How neat is that! This product is very gentle with a nice light scent and does a superb job of removing make-up including mascara. It has not caused any breakouts and does not dry out my skin.  I really love this product line and would highly recommend it!  See their informative web site: http://www.yestocarrots.com/ for more information on their products to see what is best suited for your skin type.

The web site has been updated (it looks great), is loaded with lots of information including ingredients, special offers and it introduces a new product line starring grapefruit!  Are you already a fan of this product line? If so let me know what your favorite products are!  And if you haven't tried these products I would highly encourage you to do so and share your experience!

Nivea: Touch of Renewal Lathering Body Scrub

The winter months can be brutal with the wind, cold temperatures outside, the warm temperatures inside, the rain the snow etc.  And there are a LOT of bodyscrubs and body washes out there which can make it confusing to choose the right formula for your unique skin type.

Say hello to Nivea, Touch of Renewal Lathering Body Scrub.

This is a great product to help you keep your skin looking healthy and feeling soft by gently removing dead skin cells.

Nivea is gentle enough to use daily without over drying your skin.  The exfoliation is gentle and the Vit E leaves skin moisturized and the lather is just fun to play with!  This special formula is perfectly balanced to exfoliate and moisturize without irritating your skin.
It says it can be used every day, but I've been using it about 2-3 x a week with great results.  I have even used it on my face a few times without no irritation.  Nivea is lightly scented, gentle and it works! The whopping large bottle received (12 FL OZ) was from my Allure Holiday Beauty Box (which came packed w/many full size products) & caused several minutes of giddi-ness!
