Sephora Christmas Gifts
This week I did some of my holiday shopping at Sephora and I thought I’d share what I ended up getting.
Body Butter Trio Set $22USD
Philosophy The Winter Escape $25USD
Mini Super Shimmer Gift Set $20USD
I hope they like them. It’s all going to the same family so I figured they could split them up and pick out their favorite colors or flavors.
Have you started your Christmas shopping yet?

Crabtree & Evelyn Naturals Rejuvenating Creamy Body Wash
A few weeks ago my boss gave me and my co-worker body wash from Crabtree and Evelyn. I got the Mango and Grapefruit flavor.
I love body washes that smell great. It just gives me a boost in the morning to help wake me up. This one is definitely up there with my favorite smelling body washes. It’ so fruity and fresh – I’m going to be sad when this is finished. It leaves my skin feeling soft and moisturized, thanks to the 20% mango oil.
If you’re looking for something that will leave your skin feeling great while smelling delicious in the shower check out Crabtree & Evelyn’s Naturals Rejuvenating Creamy Body Wash.
Also this Friday Crabtree & Evelyn will be having a 20% off sale for Black Friday – the perfect opportunity to get some Christmas shopping done.
Disclosure: I received this product as a gift.

Olay Body Wash Plus Body Butter Ribbons
I’ve been using Olay’s Body Wash Plus Body Butter Ribbons for the last few weeks now and have to say that I’m pleasantly surprised with how well it moisturized.
I love body butters – love, love, love them in fact – so when I saw this at the drug store it was definitely calling my name. It leaves my skin feeling clean and moisturized without leaving a filmy feeling. I always seem to get drier skin during the really hot and really cold months so it was great to see it help up when my skin is feeling it’s driest.
You don’t need much on your puff to get a sudsy lather going. The Olay site even suggests using the body wash as a shaving lotion – although I haven’t tried it. The scent is great too – it’s not too overpowering but it definitely smells great.
If you’re in the market for a new body wash and you have dry skin I would recommend giving Olay’s Body Wash Plus Body Butter Ribbons a go.
Available for $6.50 at your local drugstore.

Sephora Vanilla Cupcake Body Wash
First off, I have to admit that vanilla is my favorite scent. Give me anything vanilla and I’ll probably like it. When I first saw this at Sephora I HAD to smell it. And as soon as I did I loved it. It seriously does smell like vanilla cupcake. There’s an ice cream place that I go to that has birthday cake flavored ice cream. The first time I ordered it I was doubtful, but it really did taste like birthday cake. That’s how I feel about this body wash. You don’t think it will really smell like vanilla cupcake, but it really does.
In addition to vanilla, there’s also an almond scent that really sets it apart from other vanilla scented body washes. It lathered up nicely and I felt clean without feeling like my skin was left feeling dry. It contains aloe, buttermilk, and honey to keep you feeling moisturized.
I was soooo sad when I used up the last of it, I’m definitely going to be buying this body wash again.
The other products available in this line are: body butter, body scrub, bubble bath, and dry oil.
Available at your local Sephora or online at sephora.com for $12USD.

Tone Sugar Glow Body Wash
I recently got a sample of Tone Sugar Glow Body Wash and absolutely loved it. Unfortunately I was only able to get two showers out of the sample so the next day I was on the hunt for it at the drug store.
It contains sugar which exfoliates your skin, which is a great addition considering winter and the cold weather that brings dry skin is on the way. The scent is tropically luxurious, without being overpowering. It’s a great smell to wake up to. It’s safe on my sensitive skin, it doesn’t cause any reactions.While my skin felt squeaky clean, it wasn’t left feeling too dry. All in all, I love everything about it.
While I used the body wash, it’s also available in bar soap.
Available at your local drugstore for $6.
