Bloggers I have such a strong sense of smell that in a former life I think I was a drug sniffing German Shepard...I'm not exaggerating. So smells REALLY affect me-good or bad. This leads me to Issue #1: Lotion that I have either purchased or that I received as a gift that well, stinks. I hate to throw it out (because somewhere deep down I'm frugal) but I cant bare to use it on my hands or body or even leave it in one one the guests bathrooms. So that leaves me with a drawer full of stinky, useless lotion :(
Issue #2: Dry feet....well, this isn't an issue for me (see solution below) but I see other people with heels so dry and cracked that they could walk across hot coals and not blink an eye :) I cant imagine what their sweetie thinks when they are snuggling in bed and (gasp) playing footsie with those lethal weapons!
Solution time: Every time I put on socks (which for me is daily bc I workout most mornings and then wear my running shoes for a good part of the rest of my day), I first slather a thick nice amount of my "stink" lotion onto my feet and rub it in. Then put my socks and shoes on over it and voila-all day long my feet are getting a nice little moisturizing treatment and I'm not wasting that dreadful lotion-but I'm not smelling it either! Easy Peasy :)

Want to Smell Delicious?


Happy Tuesday Bloggers!! Don't ya just love a short week? We had a wonderful weekend, we went up to Lake Tahoe and took the pups on their first ever boat ride...it was the funniest/cutest thing ever :) Now I'm here today-but I leave tomorrow morning for St Louis to visit my sister and my darling niece. So this will be my only post this week-but trust me, I'll be back with lots of goodies to discuss next week!!
The products above are too yummy not to blog about. They are Philosophy Apricots and Cream Body Lotion and Body Wash/Bubble Bath. I got them both at Nordies. They are huge-32 oz and smell divine. I love to take a soak in the tub at night before I climb into bed and now I use the bubble bath and after use the body lotion and every single time I do this Kevin makes a comment on how good I smell :) The bubble bath/body wash gets nice and sudsy and the lotion is a pretty good moisturizer-so not only do these products smell great-they work well too!! They feel luxurious and now that I'm getting bigger and bigger-I need all the luxuries/treats that I can get ;)
