Just a few current beauty obsessions...

My name is Lindsey, and I am a beauty product junkie.

For real. One of my yearly goals was to use up the products I own before buying anything new. Meaning that icky Vanilla Apricot from Bath & Body Works that I bought because I couldn’t resist a sale, is now being utilized by yours truly, whether I like it or not. Nothing like teaching yourself a lesson!

Anyway, this week, here are some of my favorites. Yes, they change weekly, and occasionally more often. Don’t judge.

-Burt’s Bees Mama Bee Balm. A pregnant MUST. It’s the perfect texture post-shower, and I do believe it prevented a lot of stretch marks from Reese (because, holy hell, things could’ve been a lot worse considering I gained a whopping 43 pounds).

-Victoria’s Secret So Sexy Instant Detangler. My hair is usually a tangled, teased mess. I kind of prefer it messy. But there are times I have to brush through the snarls, and this makes it possible, plus smells…sexy.

-(almost hidden) Dior DiorBronze Face Tanner. It’s expensive, and smells like a rich lady, and actually works without clogging my pores. I love it! But I use it wisely, as I am not, myself, a rich lady.

-Burt’s Bees lip balm. There is not a person on this earth who doesn’t use it, right? I slather it on before bed and under my lipstick/gloss in the morning. No chapped lips all winter! (Then again, did we even have a winter this year in Michigan? Not that I’m complaining.)

-Benefit It’s Potent! Eye cream. This brand is seriously the bee’s knees. The retro-glam packaging has made me melt since I was a mere 17. And this eye cream is totally not greasy, and not nearly as pricey as others I’ve tried.

-The Body Shop Cocoa Butter Everyday Summer Lotion. A slight tan in a bottle. I’m guilty of using self-tanners, but hey—I’m okay with the wrinkle-free route. This one smells kind of grapey, and isn’t terribly dramatic. There are others I love, too, and I will post them at some point.

-The Body Shop Camomile Eye Makeup Remover. Where’s the “h” in chamomile? I don’t know, and I don’t care, because this stuff is the ONLY eye makeup remover that works swifty and doesn’t leave smudges and is totally hydrating and doesn’t irritate my contacts. Heavenly!

-The Body Shop Moroccan Rose Body Milk. The scent. is. amazing. It’s way less greasy and thick than lotion, and perfect for summer when you’d rather not sweat it off.
