Things I've been lovin' this summer...

Here is a list of random things that I've been loving this summer. 

First is Avon SuperShock mascara. I first tried this when I was home in Killarney in August. Thanks to a mom that sells Avon, I get to try anything that I want (within reason!). This mascara is a big honkin' tube and the wand/bristles are bigger than normal, which I like, as I feel that my lashes are much more dramatic/luscious/long. I always wear mascara, even if I'm not wearing any other makeup, and this mascara totally delivers on bringing attention to my eyes with minimal effort. Love it! Regular price $9.99 



My second fave item this summer is the Norwex Body Pack. These cloths are antibacterial and are used like a washcloth. You just wet them, wash your face, rinse and let dry. Because they are antibacterial, you don't need to use any cleansers. I have sensitive skin and I have to be super careful about what I use on my skin, especially my face. With these cloths I can wash my face without worrying about breaking out from some nasty cleansers full of perfumes, dyes, preservatives and chemicals. I've had these cloths for over 2 years and they still work great. I wash them with my towels and dry in the dryer (never use bleach or fabric softeners!) I have recently begun selling Norwex products, so yes, this my shameless plug for Norwex! If you are interested in these cloths or anything else from Norwex, let me know! Regular $22.99 for a 3 pack.

This is a product that I carry with me at all times. Dove Pomegranate and Lemon Verbena scent Go Fresh Body Mist is great to have in your purse to spritz and freshen up, especially in the summer months when you can get hot and sweaty. This is a great scent - very light and refreshing. The daycare I work at can get super hot and sometimes after a rough morning, I like to spray myself with some body mist and then I just feel better about the day and myself! There are many other scents from the Dove Go Fresh line, all of them are just delightful. I think this retails for about $3.99 at drugstores - maybe less if you can get it on sale!

My friend Liz recommended this Rimmel Natural Bronzer to me quite a while ago, and I finally just went ahead and bought it! It's available in 2 different shades, 1 lighter and 1 darker. I think I bought the lighter one, as I hate when bronzer looks like bronzer, if you know what I mean. I am quite enjoying this product, it gives a very nice, natural look without being overdone. A hit, especially in summer. I think I paid $8 or $9 for this at Shoppers (which was dumb because Shoppers is always more expensive) but I saw this for about $7 at Zellers. 


Well, that's all I can think about for now, and it's time for bed, so this post is done! I'll maybe think about another list of things to post in the future. Happy Sunday!

  1. I have those norwex body cloths and I like them too. The lady that did my party said to wash them in a lint-free load of laundry, I don't know why.
    Glad to see a new post Leah! I'm going to try that bronzer also. Do you put that on instead of foundation or what?

  3. YES to the Norwex body pack! looooove them. Also, it's the only way to get the ol' husband to wash his face. He always refused to use any kinda cleanser.

    And i'm super glad you like the bronzer! I just picked it up again 2 weeks ago on sale at Shoppers for $4.99!

    Keep posting about your product loves!

    I like all your things too, but don't use any of them! I agree to mascara everyday, and basically all make-up... its pretty great.
    ...still thinking of the wonderful memories from our time together.
