Used to the Last Drop: The Sale Find That Surprised Me

I bought this MUMUSO Purple Perilla lotion on sale.  It was sitting there on the till with a 40 or 50% off sign. I read calming. So I got it.  But since it was on sale, it also meant my expectations weren’t exactly standing at attention. But my skin surprised me. It worked beautifully. No reactions whatsoever. No problems with the scent either, which matters to me because fragrance and I do not always have the most peaceful relationship. It simply became something I could use without thinking too much about it. And perhaps that’s an underrated quality in skincare. Not everything needs to transform your life, arrive with twelve actives and demand its own complicated ritual. Sometimes you just want to put lotion on your skin and have your skin say: Fine by me. Apparently mine said that often enough that I finished the bottle. Not bad for something I added last minute because it was on sale. —- With elegance and quiet fire, Lady E Founder, Glow by Lady E An editor...

Review: The Face Shop Botanic Lemon Verbena Body Lotion

If sunshine had a scent, this would be it. 🌞 Light, bright, and citrusy — The Face Shop’s Botanic Lemon Verbena Lotion brings an instant mood lift without overwhelming the senses. The scent reminds me of Clinique Happy — cheerful, not clingy. 💛 What I love: Absorbs quickly : No sticky feeling even in the heat of summer Perfect for everyday use : Hydrating but never greasy Family-safe : Even my son, who has eczema-prone skin, uses it on his arms and legs with great results Skin-friendly : His eczema wounds have healed and haven't flared up since using this 💡 Caution: If you're very sensitive to scents or have eczema, always do a patch test first : Apply a small amount to the inside of your elbow, wait 15 minutes, and observe. If you react, wash the area immediately with soap and water. If there's no reaction, try it on a small area of skin before applying more.
