Olay Daily Facials Daily Hydrating Clean

I usually try to wash my face every time I wear makeup. Some days, I am just too tired and use a cleansing wipe. However, sometimes those wipes don't clean off all traces of the makeup especially,  with mascara. I like that these wipes are convenient and had soapy cleanser on them. The cleanser is enriched with grapeseed extract and glycerin to nourish and replenish skin. The wipes had a bit of texture that provided a nice relaxing feeling. It left my skin feeling cleaned and refreshed. I think these wipes are perfect for a weekend trip especially when space might be limited to carry a big bottle of cleanser.

Julep Rethink Your Shower Hydrating Body Cleansing Oil

I usually use a  combination of shower gels and bar soaps for showering purposes. I feel like some shower gels are not moisturizing enough and well, some bar soaps are dull. Especially on days where I need to something "extra" to make my mornings more bearable. 

The lightweight body cleansing oil is packed with grape seed oil, coconut oil, kukui nut oil, grapefruit peel oil, and glycerin. It promises to leave skin hydrated and moisturized. The cleansing oil provided a generous lather and did leave my skin feeling soft. However, I still had to follow up with lotion.  It's not a bad shower cleanser but, it's definitely pricer than the brands available at the drugstore.

Neutrogena Norwegian Formula Hand Cream

The fragrance free lotion is enriched with glycerin to leave skin soft and supple. The clinically proven formula promises to provide relief against dry and chapped skin. The thick lotion didn’t have a noticeable scent, but it left my hand a bit greasy. My skin was softer but it was felt like it had a thin coat of wax over it.

Altchek Dermatologist MD DePuff Eye Pads Soothing Hydrator

The eye gel pads promises to hydrate, smooth fine lines and wrinkles while minimizing puffiness. The eye pads are enriched with retinyl palmitate, phyto collagen, vitamin E, glycerin, aloe vera and allantoin. The eye pads went on easily and came off without leaving a sticky residue. After one use, I didn’t notice any difference in terms of fine lines and wrinkles but my skin was smooth, soft, less puffy, and nicely moisturized. A definite fun treat to do while watching TV or to using it in the morning after a “fun” night.

Jock Soap Bloody Orange Body Soap

The glycerin soap had a delicate citrus scent. I didn't notice the scent lingering my skin after my shower. It didn't leave skin feeling sticky or waxy.   The soap didn't provide a generous lather and the soap didn't last very long. It also didn't hydrate my skin. A definite mediocre soap.

Zents Mandarin Ultra Rich Shea Butter Soap

The triple milled, 100% vegetable based is formulated with organic shea butter, glycerin, neem oil and coconut oil. And none of the bad stuff like parabens, phthalates, sodium lauryl, colors and dyes. The soap promises to condition, hydrate, protect, deodorizes, and balance skin zones. The citrus scented soap lather well and left my skin smooth and soft while delicately scented.

St. Ives Oatmeal and Shea Butter Moisturizing Body Wash

When I think of oatmeal and shea butter, the last thing I think of is something sweet and floral scented. This body wash has this weird scent, as doesn’t smell like oatmeal cookies but has a  more  sophisticated “floral” scent. The creamy body wash is formulated with oatmeal, shea butter, 100% natural glycerin,  and pure swiss glacial water. My skin during the winter, well hot weather too,  my skin gets scaly and ashy. To my surprise, this rich body wash kept my skin hydrated, moisturized and sooo smooth and soft! Even though, I was using my boiling hot water my skin didn’t even feel stripped or dehydrated. This hypoallergenic and paraben free body wash is my go to whenever my skin needs a bit of pampering.
