Sally Hansen Insta-Dri Fast Dry Nail Color
I LOVE gel nails, but I can't always afford it at $35 a pop (hello, budget). That's why I love using Sally Hansen's Insta-Dry polish in Cinna-snap. This polish lasts a minimum a week for me and is less than $5 for the entire bottle. Who needs expensive gel nails now.
St. Tropez Self Tanner
When it's cold outside, and my skin is, um, pale, there's only one thing to solve my winter blues. A good tan... but a safe one. So I use St. Tropez Self Tanner with the mitt. (YOU HAVE TO HAVE THE MITT TO SAVE YOUR HANDS.)
I love this self-tanner because you can see it as it goes on so you know you don't miss anything, unlike other self-tanners. This one is a little pricier, but it actually gives you a great, natural tan without the orange. (Take this from a really pale white girl.)
Bumble and Bumble Dry Shampoo
Before being told about Bumble and Bumble dry shampoo I was using so many different types of sprays and it was only making my hair worse. This stuff, Prêt-à-powder is amazing - it's a great dry shampoo and volumizer in one. I actually put it on my hair after I wash and blow dry it to keep the clean hair last longer (and give it a good volume boost).
With using this, I only wash my hair 2-3 times per week. Saving a lot of time in the mornings!
Clarisonic - MIA 2
For about two years I deliberated about buying a Clarisonic and if it would be worth it... Well, I'm happy to say it is. Since using it last October, it helps really clean off all of my makeup at night, clean out pores and I think makes my Philosophy beauty products work even better.
It's also currently on sale at Nordstrom (free shipping!): Clarisonic Mia 2
Philosophy Renewed Hope in a Jar Night
You may not sleep with your current nighttime moisturizer, but you will want to with Philosophy's Renewed Hope in a Jar Night.
Your skin will wake up soft, dewy, glowy, amazing, and younger. Trust me. Try it.

Deletei LOVE that clarisonic mia girl! i got mine a few years but def need to update it as it's seen it's better days ha ;) thanks so much and love your sweet blog ! new follower over here!
ReplyDeleteI love it too! It does make such a difference. Also, I lived in Atlanta after I graduated college for a couple of years- GREAT city.
DeleteAfter reading this great post and all of these awesome comments, it appears that I am missing out on a key beauty essential....a clarisonic!!! I dont wear make too often, so is it good to use just to wash your face daily?
ReplyDeleteMy esthetician told me for those who wear makeup everyday it's good to use at night to get it all off, and if you don't wear a lot of makeup, then it's good to use every other day. It just helps exfoliate and clean out your pores so less wrinkles will develop. I love mine.
DeleteI seriously need to try that quick drying polish! And I'm a huge fan of dry shampoo. - Katy
ReplyDeleteI LOVE St Tropez! Also, how cute is your Clarisonic?
ReplyDeleteLove all BB hair products! Haven't tried the dry shampoo though, so it will go on my list of "to try"!!
ReplyDeleteHave you tried Sally Hansen Miracle Gel polish? It has a top coat and it lasts FOREVER!
