Aveeno Body Wash: Energize Me So I Don't Feel Like Murdering Everyone At Work, Please.

Metric Jenn

It is the middle of winter, I have no vacation time left, and there is no winter sojourn down to Mexico in my future. My patience with everything and everyone is at an end, and it's a virtual Herculean Feat to get myself out of bed in the morning to go to work. Generally, I need SOMETHING new to motivate me, or just give me that little boost in the morning that isn't a ninth cup of coffee or meth-amphetamines. And so I turned to Aveeno for some help. I picked up the Energizing Body Wash with lemongrass, rosemary, and mint at Safeway about three weeks ago.  I paid 7.99$ for a 16 oz bottle, a bit on the more expensive side for body washes. 

My Face Craves Chocolate: Lush Cupcake Face Mask

Spring has sprung, and we all know what that means: The grass turns green, flowers bloom, and I try a Lush face mask again after a year-long hiatus and being terrified that my skin won't be able to handle it. 

This time around I chose the Lush Cupcake Face Mask for $8.95, trumpeted on their site as being invented with teenage skin in mind. I figured it was apt, as spring time always wrecks havoc with my complexion (face and neck). Sadly, I even found 3 blemishes on my neck last week - and so I decided to get crazy-proactive. No, no...not Proactive from the commercials: I went the natural/hippie route:Lush.
