Hi all,
I hope everyone is enjoying their new year. The next product that I am going to review is not a beauty bargain, but I really love the idea behind this gift set. For Christmas, my husband purchased for me the Sephora Favorites Fragrance Sample for Her (he bought it for $65.00).
What I love about this gift set is that there are 14 fragrances for me to sample, and the samples are a pretty good size. I have so far sampled them all and I still have enough to use from each sample to try them a few more times. The gift set also contains a free beauty clutch and a booklet explaining each perfume. You also get a voucher for a 1.6-1.7 fl oz full sized perfume of your choice.
My personal favorites are Guilty by Gucci and La Vie Est Belle by Lancome. I haven't made my decision one which bottle I want a full sized one of!
I hope this review was helpful!

Bath & Shower Oil
Hi all,
On a recent trip to my local TJ Maxx, I visited the beauty section. Normally when I look through these products, they are opened/broken/used... so to my delight, I was excited when I found a bath and shower oil for only $4.99 and it appeared to not have been tampered with! It smelled amazing and I had been wanting to try a bath oil for a while, so I figured I'd give the product a try.
The product I purchased was: Bath & Shower Oil 06 by APOTHEKE:M. I purchased the product for $4.99 from TJ Maxx. Upon internet research, you can also find the product for $8.99 at Target. I tried the oil in the shower and also in a bath. In the shower, I applied it after washing my body and rinsed. It left a nice smell on my skin and my skin felt very dewy after my shower. I also poured the recommended 3 tablespoons into a bath, and the results were the same. I was a little disappointed in the consistency of the oil... it is extremely watery and has bubbles in it (I'm not sure how oil has bubbles). I also wanted a stronger mandarin guava smell in my bath. While I am content with my purchase, I will probably not be buying this product again.
Thanks peeps,
Jenn

Moisturizer Review
Hello all,
So here is my first review on a bargain product; Garnier Nutritioniste, Moisture Rescue Lightweight UV-Lotion.
This lotion was around $7.00 at Walmart and I had a $1.00 off coupon, pretty good deal for face moisturizer!
Now, I have extremely oily skin. I'm not even exaggerating, after an hour of putting on my make-up, I already have to use an oil blotting paper. So I am always very hesitant about using a daytime moisturizer. This moisturizer is very lightweight and does not add to the oiliness of my skin. I also like that it has an SPF 15 element.
While I am not sure how well this product would work for someone who has dry skin, it is a nice lightweight moisturizer for my oily sisters!
I hope everyone has a fabulous day.
