The Lip Scrub

This product is one of the many that I got in my b-glowing haul last week! (It was a tiny haul... but these products are seriously worth talking about!)

So the first product is this amazing exfoliator above-- THE LIP SCRUB by Sara Happ. This product retails at $24.00 a pot so of course, before I decided to splurge-- I was hesitant! I rarely ever spend that much money on skincare products (unless we are talking about the FRESH Sugar Lip Treatment!) I must say though, that I was pleasantly surprised when I opened this cute little box. I went across many blog entries about this lip scrub before I decided to take the plunge and choose a scent. This scrub comes in many different fragrances but I was sold when I found out that there was one that smelled like hot cocoa!

I would say that the first time I tried this, it was a bit messy! It's cold here in NY and my package was outside waiting on my doorstep for hours, making the product a little bit hard and more difficult to spread on my lips. Once I got to scrubbing, it was all good!!!

I have never tried any other lip scrubs on the market but, I can say that this is excellent and does exactly what it is supposed to do. After using it, my lips felt really soft but, unfortunately they didn't feel too moisturized. I think that I wiped too much off, as on the website and on other reviews, it says that some residual oil will be left to help keep moisture locked in. All in all, I give this product:

Grade: A-

Needless to say, I am going to keep trying with this lip scrub! I would love to hear other reccomendations for exfoliating products out there, as this is something that I recently have fell in love with doing!

Have any favorites or have anything you would like me to review/talk about?

b-glowing haul (Part 1: The Anticipation!)

Okay so I recently took the plunge and made my first purchase at b-glowing.com. I have been trying to support more small businesses and especially businesses started by young entreprenurial women. I was drawn to b-glowing because they carried a lot of interesting brands form the beauty industry that I'd never heard of.


I came upon the site while browsing the internet, in search of the Adara Coconut Oil that I've been hearing about. After months and months of visiting and revisiting, I made the decision to get the coconut oil. But--- who goes online to shop and walks away with just one item!?

Not me.

I also purchased a body scrub and a lip scrub and I plan to review all three here on my blog once they arrive!

One of my closest friends and I had a chat a few nights about about exfolitation and how important it is to keep skin preserved and mositurized... needless to say, I was sold on that idea and decided that I would take the challenge to take better care of my skin this winter.

Any ideas or tips? Feel free to share them with me in the comment box below! Reviews of the products I purchased, coming soon!!!!
