Philosophy Facial Care- A Review

/in , /by
Here is another great product from Philosophy and Clarisonic. After I purchased my body care from Philosophy and my friend (after doing) another “unboxing” for me; I went ahead and tried the Purity facial cleanser. I used it for about a month and saw drastic changes in my skin. I looked fresh and it felt clean! My color changed and it looked smoother. I just love it! So I also purchased the moisturizers and they are fantastic. The Hope in a Jar night and day cream were just what I needed. The coverage is great and my face doesn’t feel dry and it is smooth.
My Clarisonic is just heaven sent!! My face has just improved. It is the best!!! It was really expensive I paid $150 for it but it was worth every penny! I use the Purity cleanser with my Clarisonic twice a day and I really enjoy it. If you can’t afford the Clarisonic then try the Spa Sonic. I heard that it is a good product for the money. Below is a link to a YouTube video from the Daily Connoisseur.  She does an excellent review on both.

Philosophy Body Care- A Review

/in , /by

I learned about Philosophy while watching QVC one night and it just seemed a little on the expensive side to me and I just thought no! But then one of my co-workers order some of the Amazing Grace whipped body cream and I just fell in love! It’s a little hard to purchase body care off the T.V. shopping networks because you are just not sure about the smell. So I was happy when my friend shared her “unboxing” with me. Amazing Grace is just a light sophisticated scent. It has a little hint of floral to it and it just smells really clean. I absolutely love it!! I purchased the body whipped cream, body lotion, bubble bath and body spray. Another scent that I tried from the line is the Love, Sweet, Love. It is a very fun fragrance! It is great for spring and summer and its smells sweet. I also tried the Violet Blossom perfume. Oh it is a wonderful scent of lilac and lavender! Their lip gloss is also fantastic! It taste great and covers well.

What can I say I just love the line so far. You should check out QVC.com, Sephora or  your local Von Maur store to purchase some items for yourself!

Having an area to place your danity treasures is a wonderful thing. But having those items organized is quite another. I saw a photo in the Martha Stewart Weddings magazine for spring. Darcy Miller, of course, had this wonderful idea of using a decorative tray, small glass vases and teacups, and saucers to use to hold your favorite items. China is durable and of course, looks elegant. Below is my interpretation of Darcy’s idea. I will have to get some teacups and a tray to add to my vanity. Enjoy…
