The Little Things

I love discovering a new feminine product and having it become part of your daily routine, say you get a new scented body wash or shampoo. I recently used one of those new razors with the shaving cream built on the razor. It sounds kind of weirdly unsanitary, but it works so well. My sister had one and I used it when she was visiting me to shave my legs and it was amazing. It's made by Intuition, scented with milk and honey and has Shea Butter lotion built on, surrounding the razor. It was a little pricey, but it comes with 2 extra razor/lotion combos, you never have to buy shaving cream, and those steps are eliminated. My legs have never felt so smooth. I had no cuts and I really couldn't feel it as it went over my skin. It made me think it wasn't working so I went over my legs twice, but I really don't think I needed to. It just works that well. I'll keep the lids of the razor/lotion securely fastened, so no nastiness is generated. It also came with a razor holder with a suction cup on the back, so it hangs in the shower neatly and out of the way.

It's really the little things that can make you happier and more satisfied with your life sometime.

I also got a new scented deodorant that I'm enjoying, it's by Dove scented with waterlilly and freshmint. It smells great. Remember that when your feeling blue that buying even the smallest thing for yourself can easily help light up your day.

It Puts the Lotion On the Tissue

I'm still trying to shake a cold I picked up a few weeks ago.  It's lingering just enough to bug me, but not enough to get me out of work.  It's head cold mainly, with congestion and a runny nose.  So thank Kleenex for tissues soaked in lotion.

What a huge difference it makes!  For the first week I was just using what we had around the house.  And while toilet paper might be soft enough for the basement, it just doesn't cut it with your nose.  Within days my nose was red and irritated, with peeling skin and gnashing teeth...the whole deal.  The lotion fixed all that.

It's a simple idea with big results for noses everywhere.  And those of you who know me know that I have a decent amount of acreage there, so a tissue with a gentle touch (and a lot of surface area) is a huge boon.
