Fresh Skincare from L'Occitane: 

Aqua Réotier Water Gel Cleanser and Moisturizer

L'Occitane Aqua Réotier Water Gel Cleanser:

This is a gentle foaming cleanser gel with calcium-rich Réotier water to remove impurities without drying skin. I love the fresh scent and the thick feel of the gel. It works into a mild lather and cleans and refreshes my skin. It removes dirt, oil and impurities from my skin with ease. I do use a makeup remover to remove my eye makeup before using this cleanser. It works well to remove dirt and residue and any remaining traces of my makeup. While I usually do prefer unscented products, I do find that I really enjoy the light fresh and clean scent of this cleanser. This is a great addition to my skincare routine! 

I think the L'Occitane Aqua Réotier Water Gel Cleanser is a fantastic cleanser for warmer weather! When it gets cold, I am probably going to have to switch back to something more moisturizing. However, while it is still hot or mild in Georgia, I can use this! 

Aqua Réotier Ultra Thirst-Quenching Cream:

This lightweight melting cream is enriched with Réotier water and hyaluronic acid. So, it has the ability to draw water into the skin which leaves it feeling hydrated and soft all day long. I love how plumped and smooth my skin looks when I use this soothing cream. I love how light this cream feels on my skin for the warmer months! Like the cleanser, this product has a light and fresh scent. While I would prefer all my products to be unscented (because of my sensitive skin), I still enjoy this product and find the scent to be appealing. 

Like all L'Occitane products, these Aqua Réotier are luxurious and a total treat to use! Totally love these items and recommend for your late summer/early fall skincare routine! :)

Yu-Be's Cult Classic Moisturizing Cream is now available Fragrance-Free!

Affiliate Link Press Sample 

Exciting news for fans of fragrance-free products...Yu-Be's cult-favorite Moisturizing Skin Cream now has a NEW Fragrance-free version: Introducing the NEW Yu-Be Advanced Formula Pure Hydration Cream Tube w/ Chamomile Extract.

I first tried Yu-Be's Moisturizing Skin Cream when I first started blogging years ago and totally loved it! I personally love using balms like this on my cuticles, feet, and any rough or irritated patches on my skin. I even love using it on my lips!

Over the years, and especially recently, I have developed a preferance for Fragrance-Free products. No, I haven't completely given up on Fragrance...However, if the same product is available in both Fragranced and Fragrance-Free options, I always go for the Fragrance-Free version. My skin is sensitive. So, I know that if I went 100% Fragrance-Free, my skin would thank me...and I might end up doing that eventually...but, I will admit that it is hard as a beauty-blogger when I love trying out all of the new products! With that said, if I could make just one request to all of my favorite brands out there, it would be to have all of their products available in Fragrance Free versions as well. 

So, when I found out that Yu-Be had a NEW Fragrance Free version of their cult classic cream, I just had to try it. Guess what? I am a HUGE fan!

Here is the scoop from Yu-Be:

The brand is launching a reformulated, unscented version of their cult favorite cream, Yu-Be Advanced Formula Pure Hydration Cream with Chamomile Extract.

·         Paraben Free

·         Totally Unscented (NO CAMPHOR)

·         Alcohol Free

·         Artificial Fragrance Free

·         Petrolatum / Mineral Oil Free

·         Free of Animal-Derived Ingredients

This cream is amazing!!! Honestly, I really categorize it more as a balm as it really meets my skin's needs that a balm usually covers: nails, cuticles, lips, rough patches, and feet. This product is super hyrating and very protecting. Slather it on all your rough and dry spots and you will wake up with improved skin. I literally keep this on my nightstand and use it every night before going to sleep. I just love it and am THRILLED with the fragrance-free version. The brand has carefully removed the camphor and parabens that were in the origional product while still keeping the powerful hydrating qualities everyone has come to expect from Yu-Be. 

The new Advanced Formula Cream is available for $16 via www.yu-be.com, select Yu-Be products can also be found at Target, Amazon, Anthropologie and Nordstrom online.

Fab Fast Friday: Dry Hand Solutions with The Jojoba Company

Affiliate Link Press Sample 

It is time for another Fab Fast Friday! Fab Fast Friday is where I give you the quick scoop on a singular product that I am really loving lately! :)

Dry Hand Solutions with The Jojoba Company: Lemon & Coconut Hand Cream:

I must admit, this Hand Cream "had me" at Lemon & Coconut! What a refreshing scent combination for a hand cream! 

I really struggle with dry hands. With one child in diapers and two kids under 4 years old, I am constantly washing my hands and using hand sanitizer. While we are doing our best to keep germs away, we are wreaking havoc on our hands! So, a good hand cream is a must for both at home and on-the-go!

The Jojoba Company Lemon & Coconut Hand Cream:

Lately, I have really been loving the Lemon & Coconut Hand Cream from The Jojoba Company. This nicely hydrating cream is comprised of  organic coconut oil, lemon essential oil and 100% pure jojoba to re-hyrdrate and re-energize hands with a subtle fresh scent. The size of the tube is very travel-friendly: perfect for your handbag! I really enjoy the super fresh lemony scent. Such a refreshing scent now that Spring is approaching and the weather is turning warmer! The pump dispenser is a plus, too! 

If you are looking for a great new hand cream, check this one out. The packaging is so cute that it would be great for a gift, too!

Top Ten: Cold Weather Skincare with Eucerin, No 4, Hada Labo Tokyo

This month we are talking about one of my favorite topics: Skincare!!! Now that the cold weather has finally arrived in Georgia, I am making the switch to my cold weather skincare products. While I do use many of these products year round, their richness makes them perfect for cold weather. My skin does generally get much drier in the winter. My combo-oily skin shifts to combo-dry. My body skin gets very dry and even chapped. So, I need products to combat these issues!
