Good Morning, Gorgeous
In the past three weeks I’ve collected a mountain of face creams, hair products, cleansers, mascaras, and so much more that my little beauty junkie heart can hardly take it.
I wasn’t sure which product to review first, but then I tried this fabulous body scrub one morning and I knew-the best beauty products to kick off your morning!
Exfoliate Foaming Body Cleanser; $34; Suki
I know I’m always posting on body scrubs but this one from the Suki Body line is different. It not only exfoliates but lathers, which makes you feel like you’re not only getting rid of dead skin but you’re really cleaning the dirt off.
I scored this product at the magazine’s clothes, beauty and accessory sale!
The scrub is made with lemongrass and organic sugar. The scent of the lemongrass woke my skin and nose up immediately! It’s perfect for the morning when you’re really dragging. It left me feeling soft and clean.
Fresh Squeezed Lemon Cleanser; $44; June Jacobs Spa Collection
Keeping with the lemon theme, one of my editor’s gave me this cleanser. The lemon gets rid of dirt, dead skin cells, and yucky impurities. The gogi berries and pomegranate fight free radicals, protects against environmental toxins, and helps to keep skin looking young. I seriously love this stuff. The scent is so fresh! It reminds me of my high school days, where I’d actually use fresh lemon as an astringent. My skin felt uber clean, light, soft and awake after using it. It’s pricey, but totally worth it.
Walnut Complexion Scrub; $24; Ole Henriksen
This walnut complexion scrub from Ole Henriksen was also a gift from my editor. I seriously need to send her a thank-you note for my beautiful skin. This stuff is the bomb! I literally could feel the new skin coming to the surface as the walnut buffed the dead cells off my face. What I liked best about the product is that it didn’t leave my skin raw and red like exfoliates tend to do. It felt soft, clean, and looked bright.
Look how my skin glows after using the scrub!
So there you have it. My top 3 beauty products to use to start your day. They cost a little more than I typically spend, but they do what they promise. What are your fav products for the morning?
