Top 10 for Dry Skin

Hey Hey Hey!!!
You read the title so you know what's going down in this post.
First though... Let's take a moment to admire the title. 😊👆🏼
Quite the clever gal, huh?? 
I actually made it up by complete accident when I was saving
my cover photo... Anyhow....
Let's get to the good stuff.

*Majority of these products can be found at your local drugstore
or Target (target is my jam)!
I'm all about affordability and accessibility.  
(I just made that up also- I don't even know if affordability is a word.)

1.  Soap & Glory "The Breakfast Scrub"  -Click Here to Shop-
The smell y'all!  It's really the only reason I caved and bought it.
I don't care, it's the truth...  It's a really nice scrub though.
Pretty typical- gets rid of the dead skin and what not.
Oh did I mention how good it smells?

2. Tone "Mango Splash" Body Wash  -Click Here to Shop-
I've been using this stuff for YEARS.  Years on years.
Not sure about the mango- it used to be called coconut something
and it still smells exactly the same sooo yeah.
Anyways it's really amaze balls and super affordable. 
I stock pile this stuff!

3.  LUSH "Ocean Salt" Scrub  -Click Here to Shop-
Good golly miss Molly!  A part of me wishes the sales rep
at Lush had never given me a sample of this amazingness because now
my life cannot go on without it.
I only use this on my face but it is marketed as face + body- it does
wonders for my face!  It smells (and tastes.. is that weird?) amazing.
It has VODKA, limes, salt.. so basically it's a margarita for your face.
It exfoliates and tones and I swear it makes me a better person as well.. 
*Make sure you buy the original!  The self-preserving version has honey
and that's not so great on ya face trust me- I tried it.

4.  LUSH "Bubblegum" Lip Scrub  -Click Here to Shop-
I have their "chocolate" lip scrub but I couldn't find a good stock 
photo of that so here's the bubblegum! LOL
I imagine they all work the same.  This tiny jar will probably
last you at least half your life.  No joke.  It's an all natural
product so you can literally eat it if you want (which I do sometimes).
Don't judge me.
I love using this when I have chapped lips but also when I wear 
liquid lipstick (before & after) because it helps prep your lips
and also helps remove all the leftover product that's hanging on for dear life
when you're removing your makeup.  

5.  Palmer's "FACE" Skin Therapy Oil  -Click Here to Shop-
La la la la; do do do do do ohhhh.. Cause loving you has made
my life so beautiful. 
I've mentioned this before on my blog..
I live for products that are great and affordable.  
I apply this with a makeup brush to dry patches on my face usually before
bed and find that it really helps soothe dry or chapped skin.
I've also applied it all over my face and neck as moisturizer as
well as under my makeup during the winter.  It's a blue ribbon product.
*Fun side note..  I experienced some breakouts while undergoing laser
hair removal and this really helped!  It reduced the size, redness, and helped
get rid of them all together.

6.  Simple Moisturizing Face Wash  -Click Here to Shop-
So I got a sample size of this with my last re-up of my makeup remover wipes.
I assumed I wouldn't like it because I have pretty oily skin and feel the need to
exfoliate nearly ever day; however, I was wrong and I'm so glad I was!
I've since re-purchased the full size bottle of this and use it nearly every day
which is major because if you know me- I'm ride or die for my Garnier face
wash.  
So the Simple brand is geared towards being "kind to your skin" it has
vitamins B5 & E and claims to cleanse throughly without being harsh.
All of which I believe to be true.  It's really cool because it cleans and
moisturizes my face without making me any more oily than usual.
It also has a faint fresh scent.  (Not clean cotton scent but just clean.) Love!

7.  Yes to Coconuts Lip Balm  -Click Here to Shop-
I'm coo coo for this cocoa balm!
Seriously..  It's the best chapstick/ lip balm I have EVER used
and I'll probably never buy any other product.  Immediately after
trying this the first time I knew I was in love and ordered 5 more!
It's constantly sold out at my Target (I think that says something).
I keep these things everywhere!  Bedside, purse, vanity, you name it!
It has a soft coconut scent and is SOOO moisturizing.
A huge bonus for me is if your lips are chapped it won't cling
to those dry areas and make your lips feel or look gross.  MAJOR
If you try nothing else off this list please try this..
Or actually don't because I already have a hard enough time finding this gem.
Lol

8.  Garnier Moisture Rescue Gel Creme  -Click Here to Shop-
Another tried & true.  I've been using this stuff for years.  I love how
light-weight it is on my skin- feels like I'm bare faced.
The mint version is for "normal" skin and their pink version is for dry skin-
I've personally tried them both and don't see a difference between the 2 so obvi
I opt for the mint because it's my favorite color.
Girl logic.
No scent, the gel feels cool to your skin, and looks great under my makeup!
I ALWAYS apply this before doing my makeup- unless it's summer time
then I use a Clinique gel creme that controls oil.

9.  Vaseline "Cocoa Radiant" Body Gel  -Click Here to Shop-
So #9 & #10 go hand in hand.  Literally.  
I mix them.  Talk about the DREAM TEAM.
When I'm feeling dry or even if I have a sunburn- I'll pump some
of the lotion into my hand then a squeeze of this gel (oil) and mix them in my hand
then apply all over my body.  AMAZING!
I have also used this stuff alone.  It's a bit heavy and will for sure leave ya greasy
so beware, but it's really good!!!
It's also a great foot treatment. Lol  I smother my feet in it and then put on socks.

10.  Vaseline "Cocoa Radiant" Body Lotion  -Click Here to Shop-
Again.. Hand in hand..  I use this lotion even if I don't use the body gel.
I apply this daily after I shower.  It never leaves me feeling greasy and doesn't
give me that heavy feeling that some lotions do.  I'm super sensitive to most smells
(which is why I don't really use specialty lotions from places like B&BW) and
I find that this isn't so over powering that I get a headache from it and after a while 
I don't really smell it at all.  It also doesn't clash with any of my perfumes.
If you haven't noticed I live for coconut anything but if you aren't a fan
there's a lot of different versions & scents of this lotion so don't let that
keep you away.  😊



That's all y'all.. Omg again with the rhyming. 
I hope you guys enjoyed & hope you can fight off the dreadful
dry skin this time of year!

Til next time...
XO,
Terin

Nordstrom Anniversary Sale | Try-On Haul


1. Chelsea28 Bell Sleeve Sweater -Click Here to Shop-
2. Ugg Wrin Rib-Knit Slipper -Click Here to Shop-
3. Leith Blouson Sleeve Sweater -Click Here to Shop-
4. Reebok Favorite Oversize Crew Sweatshirt -Click Here to Shop-
*Sale ends August 6th- Prices go up August 7th.



So this post is a bit late going up because I sat for a week obsessively refreshing pages trying to snag more items that I desperately needed..  oops.
Things sold out extremely fast, some have come back in stock (and sold out again), and some are still available! *Shocked face- grab the defibrillator! 
I've been waiting to post this because I wanted it to be a "try-on" style haul and I was waiting on 1 more package to arrive. :-)
And now we're all set to rock this so let's hop into it! Ribbit...
(I'm hopping this frog pun isn't too corny. Haha.)




I chose this beaut because it's just so unique and unlike anything else I own..  
Big sleeves are so on-trend right now and I must admit I am totally diggin it.
I chose the "pink adobe" color because I don't typically buy any pink clothing.
I must say in person the color is more gorgeous than I expected.  
It's a pink/purple/mauve color, very unique- and super soft!
This thing has me craving Fall..  Bring on the pumpkin spice!!!








This was the 1st piece I seen that got me interested in the sale.
I don't own any bell sleeve tops and I love that there is a fitted sleeve underneath so that your whole arm isn't out for the world with the least little movement and it'll actually keep you warm in the chillier months.
I'm really surprised this sweater didn't sell out immediately!
I was up at 7am the day that the sale opened to the public to make sure I snagged this!
Super soft and it makes me feel like a fabulous butterfly that just busted out of it's cocoon.







This Reebok sweatshirt!  UHHHH you guys, it's like lounging in a cloud.
I love that it doesn't have a hood like a lot of others do, because hoods just cause issues.  
They ride up your neck, they mess up your makeup, they mess up your hair... 
Just not a good time.
This is just thick enough to keep you cozy, the side slits are a great detail, it covers your butt so it'll be perfect with leggings, and I can just tell y'all now I'll be living in this!
I'm also loving the pocket.  
I love hoodies/ sweatshirts with pockets!  Idk. It's my thing, let me live.







Again... Something I'm for sure going to be living in.  All day err day!
I was a bit nervous after reading the reviews saying that these run extra small.
I'm usually a 7.5- I ordered a 9 and they fit perfectly with just enough room left to wear socks if I want.
I have the other UGG slipper that doesn't have a back and I've pretty much worn them to death, so I thought these would be great plus they have a back to keep my whole foot warm!
Seriously they were such a bargain how could I not?! Usually $119, on sale for under $80!
Plus, they're just sooo cute, right?!

And that's all for my NSale haul! -For now at least.. *covers eyes.
Hope y'all like my first try-on haul style post!
Til Next Time...

My Winter Essentials ❄️

Hey Ya'll!
Today I'm sharing some of my Winter must-haves.
These are simple, everyday products that I use throughout the Fall & Winter seasons.


This is my new favorite lip balm!
It's super moisturizing and has a cooling effect.

Twisted Peppermint 3-Wick Candle from Bath & Body Works
This is 1 of my favorite scents EVER! 
It reminds me of a peppermint mocha.

Hot Cocoa & Cream 3-Wick Candle from Bath & Body Works
A new love of mine!  Literally hot chocolate in a candle.  So yummy!

Lush ButterBall Bath Bomb
I love these all year round, but especially in the winter because they're sooo moisturizing.

Coconut Oil is my favorite way to moisturize my body.
It's especially great for dry/ chapped skin.

Sally Hansen V Amplified Gel Polish
I think this is my ALL TIME favorite polish color. 
(Very similar to the text color of this blog.. Lol)
It's that perfect deep wine shade that everyone needs in their life.  


Hand Cream in Twisted Peppermint from Bath & Body Works
Hand lotion is a must..  I have a few but this is my favorite winter scent, and check out that adorable packaging!





I love a good scarf.  This is 1 is one of my all time favorites.  
It's a blanket scarf, and it's from Target.



Sweaters! And more sweaters.
This gorg cable knit is from Kohl's.
Kohl's has some really pretty sweaters right now.
I also picked up a few others from American Eagle & Target!

Slipper Socks!
Possibly 1 of my greatest discoveries. 
Since my feet are like ice blocks fresh out of the arctic, these are miracle workers!
My favorite way to wear these is inside of my Hunter rain boots to keep my feet toasty.
They're a match made in Heaven, especially when it snows!




That's all for this post!
I hope you guys enjoyed.
Let me know what some of your Winter essentials are in the comments.
