Purpose Gentle Cleansing Bar Review


Purpose is a brand of skincare products specifically formulated for those with sensitive skin. Their products are gentle enough to be used daily on all skin types. Their products include a Gentle Cleansing Wash, Dual Treatment Moisture Lotion, and a Gentle Cleansing Bar. All of their products are hypoallergenic, oil free, and won't clog pores. I was sent a Gentle Cleansing Bar for review.


I tend to have skin that is more on the oily side so I love that this cleansing bar is oil free. I used it to wash my face in the shower and it left it feeling refreshed and clean. It does a nice job of getting rid of excess oil without drying out your skin. Another great thing about this bar is it lasts a really long time. I washed my face with it everyday for about 2 months and for only $4.00 a bar that's a great deal! The one thing I will say bad about this bar is that even though it is very gentle on your skin, it is not in your eyes. I learned this the hard way when I told my 5 year old daughter to wash her face with it. OOPS! You can purchase Purpose Gentle Cleansing Bar and other Purpose products in several drugstores like CVS and Walgreens. My local Target also carries these products.

Savannah Bee Review and Giveaway

Closed
Winner #3, 55
 
 

Savannah Bee offers pure honey and honey based beauty products. I was given the opportunity to review their All Natural Beeswax Lip Gloss as well as one of their newest products Honey Body Wash. First let's talk about the lip gloss because as you all know I love my lip gloss.


These lip glosses come in three different varieties; Mint Blossom, Wild Blackberry, Tupelo Honey. First of all they smell wonderful! Aside from that they leave your lips super soft, they are super glossy, and each one leaves a different subtle color from a glossy pink, shiny red, and a shimmery brown. Savannah Bee Beeswax Lip Gloss contains no parabens, no petroleum derived ingredients, and is never tested on animals. I was given all three and absolutely love them. My favorite is the Wild Blackberry! You can purchase all three in a combo set for $21.

Now for the Honey Body Wash!


These come in Wild Blackberry, Tupelo Honey, and Lemongrass Spearmint. All three of these amazing body washes contain royal jelly, propolis, and honey to soften, nourish, and repair your skin. Just like the lip glosses above these also smell wonderful. They lather up really nice and feel great on your skin. I received the travel sizes for my review. These are perfect to toss in your toiletry bag. They also come in an 8oz. version and sell for $9.99 each.

I was very impressed with these products and even more impressed with the story behind Savannah Bee, check it out here. While you are there be sure to look at all the other honey based products that are available as well as the different varieties of honey.

Want to win some Savannah Bee?

2 Girly Girl readers will get the chance to try these products for free. I am giving away a Tupelo Honey Body Wash and Lip Gloss set as well as a Wild Blackberry set.

Dove At-Home PitiCure and New Dove Advanced Care Deodorant Launch Party



Let's admit it other then shaving your underarms you probably do not think of your armpits much when it comes to your beauty regime. Dove would like to change that! To celebrate the launch of their New Dove Advanced Care Deodorant they are inviting women everywhere to give their armpits the care they deserve. With an easy 3 step PitiCure treatment you can have softer, smoother, and good looking armpits. Bet you have never heard that before!

At-Home PitiCure
 
Step 1: Exfoliate
Use a gentle exfoliating scrub or wipes to cleanse underarms and draw our impurities.
  • Impurities in the underarm area can cause unwanted irritation (folliculitis/ingrown hair) and exfoliation and cleansing can help to relieve this.
Step 2: Rinse
Rinse the area with warm water and pat dry with a soft towel.
 
Step 3: Care
Apply Dove Advanced Care Anti-Perspirant/Deodorant with NutriumMoisture
  • Formulated with NutriumMoisture to care for underarm skin.
  • Provides softer, smoother underarm skin in just 3 days.
  • Offers 48-hour odor and wetness protection.
I was sent the new Dove deodorant for review and I am anxious to give it a go. I will let you know my thoughts sometime next week.
 
I have more news! For those of you that live in our around the Los Angeles area you are invited to the launch party where you will be pampered with a PitiCure beauty treatment just in time for Valentines Day, and that little black dress. Additionally women will also have the opportunity to showcase their confidence post-PitiCure with an armpit revealing pose in Valentine’s Day attire at a Dove photo booth.
 
The event will take place at The Grove in Los Angeles on February 13, 2014 from 10am to 8pm. You can RSVP for this event here.
 
Let me know if you make it out unfortunately I have plans for that day but I would love to hear how it goes.

Whether your valentine loves flowers or perfume, sweets, or luxurious spa treatments Promotional Codes has gathered retail savings in one spot to save you money and time. To make it even easier for you this Valentine's Day they have a list of featured Valentine's Day codes. While perusing the site I found deals on romantic getaways, savings off jewelers like Kay's and Ice, stores like Macy's and Things Remembered and so many more. The codes are easy to use too! There is no need to sign up you just find the discount right for you and reveal the code. Some of the code links will even take you directly to the site and will automatically place the discount at checkout. Promotional Codes has hundreds of thousands of coupon deals to over 20, 000 retailers and they update them on a regular basis. I was given a gift card to purchase my special valentine a gift while saving via Promotional Codes and I have to tell you I spent quite a bit of time checking out the retailers for the perfect gift and savings. My husband is a chocoholic so it came down to a chocolate filled basket from 1 800 Baskets or Valentine surprise from Godiva. Godiva won out this time.


I saved $20 on my purchase and my husband is going to love this smorgasbord of delectable chocolates. I hope he decides to share!

After you purchase your valentine gift using Promotional Codes be sure to bookmark the site for future online purchases!
