Here’s My Philosophy

Ok guys, I’ve been on a major Philosophy kick.  I’m OBSESSED with their purity facial cleanser.  Apparently I do not need to buy any more of it- I have two bottles of their super size cleansers AND a few bottles of their 8oz bottles. *Note to self: do not request any more of their facial cleanser for Christmas or until I’ve put a dent in my current stash.*   It’s basically my go-to cleanser and my skin feels so clean and soft after I use it.

Pro-tip: use a Clarisonic Mia 2 brush with the cleanser to feel extra fresh.

So I have two of Philosophy’s bath + shower gels that I use- Fresh Cream and Melon Daiquiri. I have to admit out of the two, my favorite is the Fresh Cream. Maybe I’m drawn towards to the fresh scent of it… regardless, it’s my favorite of the two.

P.S. Has anyone ever tried their recipes featured on their bottles? I’ve always been curious about that.

So that leads me to my next predicament… what do I request this Christmas? Side bar: my mom is having a hip replacement at the beginning of December so she’s asking us for our Christmas list… now. That means I’ll be moving home to help take care of her since my dad has the early stages of dementia and basically won’t be the best caregiver. Maybe I should also ask for the best bottles of wine to get during my stay at my parent’s house… I’m probably going to need it!

I’m 87.9% sure I’m going to ask for their exfoliating clay mask. I’ve been on the hunt for a clay mask that reduces pores and gets rid of blackheads.  I would LOVE to get any recommendations on the best clay mask to try out.

I’m also thinking of requesting one of Philosophy’s bath + shower gels. I’ve narrowed it down to the following: Cinnamon Buns, Vanilla Birthday Cake or Apple Cider. I guess you could say I have a thing for baked goods + sweets. If you had to choose between the three, which one would you choose?! #firstworldproblems

Finally… do I ask for Philosophy’s Renewed Hope in a Jar moisturizer or one of their No Reason to Hide serum? I have dry skin in certain areas on my face with a few imperfections, but I don’t need anything that tightens and firms- hence I narrowed it down to these two products.  Does any one have a favorite to choose from?

If only I had the time to go to an Ulta or Sephora store, I’d go scope it out in person but with launching my own business it’s been on the back burner.  And let’s be honest, any free time I do have, it’s spent either meeting friends for happy hour or catching up on my  favorite shows.
