Venus Razor Haul


Gillette Venus Razor Haul 




I used my new Sam's Club membership to purchase a years worth of razor refills to shave. I got 10 of the Spa Breeze Venus Refills and 2 of the Venus & Olay Refills. Plus a Razor handle to put the blades on.  It was 35.88 for the bulk package. 

this price is cheaper then buying the razor and refills by themselves. The handle and 1-2 refills are 13.00$ and a 6 pack of razor refills is 25-30.00$. 
Saving money by buying in bulk! yay! 
Stay tuned for more beauty and health goodness soon, and a review of each razor refill too!

Anoka Riverfest Craft Sale Haul

Anoka River Fest Craft Fair Haul

I recently went to the Anoka Riverfest& Craft Fair for 2016. I picked up some headbands for when I work and spend gift(birthday)money on them. 
It was 3 for 15.00$ 
The company is called Halle Band and you can find them here: https://www.etsy.com/shop/LittleGlimpseOfStyle
I like them because they are light weight and made of an almost swimsuit material, it soaks up sweat and doesn't feel too wet and doesn't get bulky on your head. 

If your in the Anoka, Minnesota area next year around july check out the Anoka Riverfest. It supports local crafters and the city of Anoka. 
The link is here: http://anokariverfest.org/


Stay tuned for more hauls, beauty reviews, and more soon.

Burt's Bees Coconut Foot Cream

Burt's Bees Coconut Foot Cream


I got this in a Burt's Bees set around Christmas time, I thought I would review it for your guys. 
This is part of the Burt's Bees foot care line. As I said it is a travel size I got in a set with other products to try. This is the .75 oz. size. 

I personally do not like coconut in any way, but the smell of this doesn't bother me at all. I actually like it. The formula is a thick, almost gooey yellowish thick cream you put on your feet to moisturize and treat tired feet. It is formulated with olive oil, oat kernel flour, coconut oil, quillaja bark extract, oat kernel oil, rosemary leaf extract, soybean oil,  and canola oil. It's 94% Natural. 


 The product texture and feel is kind of off putting at first, but once you rub into your feet it feels amazing. it's thick so it gets into your feet and really moisturizes and treats your feet. I use this by putting it on my feet after a bath/shower and putting socks on to let it soak in overnight. After, in the morning I have smooth, baby's butt soft feet. I love it! 

The full size product retails for 9.00$, for 4.34 oz. tube. it can be found on amazon, ulta.com,target, target.com,walmart, walmart.com, drugstores, and grocery stores. 

It can also be found on the Burt's Bees website : http://www.burtsbees.com/Coconut-Foot-Cr%C3%A8me/06999-00,default,pd.html

This gets: a B. Due to the goopey, oily texture before rubbing in. 
4/5


Thanks for reading, Stay tuned for more soon,

Yes to Tomatoes: Blemish Clearing Facial Wipes

Yes To Tomatoes: Blemish Clearing Facial Wipes


I purchased these awhile ago at my local Wal-Mart and thought I would do a review on these facial wipes.

This is a part of the Yes To line, with Tomatoes being for acne/oily, problem skin. These are the Yes To Tomatoes Blemish Clearing Facial Wipes, they come with 25 wipes in one travel friendly pack. These wipes are formulated for oily/acne prone skin, and have a heavier focus on acne spots, blemishes, and pore care with the Yes to tomatoes line.  They retail for 6.00$ for a 25 pack of wipes. 

These wipes are formulated with an active ingredient of 1% salicylic Acid. It is also formulated with tomato fruit extract, rooibos extract, witch hazel, watermelon extract, and red pepper extract. 

The wipe has a good thickness, not to flimsy and not to thick. The smell is good, not harsh or burning. I like the smell. Also the wipes come with plenty of solution on them, so no half wet wipes. The wipes do stay wet very well, when placed face down so the solution can sink into the top of the wipes.

I use facial wipes to take off my makeup before washing my face, to touch up my face in between washing my face, and also if I am not near a water source and I need to wash my face. 

I personally love these wipes. I love the smell, the texture of the wipes, the thickness of the wipes, and how well they work. They take off all my makeup after a day/night of wearing it, even waterproof makeup. They work well to control my oily skin in between washing. They even treat my acne prone skin whenever I use them. They leave my skin feel fresh and clean. No stinging or burning I got when using some other wipes. 

I would give it: an A+ and 5 out of 5 (5/5).

they can be found at target, walmart, amazon, drugstores, grocery store, ulta and on the Yes to Carrots website(http://yestocarrots.com/product/yes-to-tomatoes-blemish-clearing-facial-wipes-25ct/)

Stay tuned for more beauty reviews soon,
