I don't know about you, but for me summer is a time when I can be a little bit more devil-may-care about my skin care because the warmer weather and the higher humidity tends to be great for my skin type. However, as the seasons change and we find the temperatures dropping and the weather getting a little bit more unpredictable, I know that my skin tends to go through a bit of a period of chaos, especially the skin on my body that has been a little bit neglected and left to its own devices all summer. I like to think I'm pretty good at caring for the skin everywhere other than my face than I used to be, but I started noticing that I use both lotion and cream in different ways at different times, so I thought now was a good time to get into the difference between lotion and cream and how to choose the right product for your needs.

Hey guys! I really wanted to get this post out quickly so that if you're interested in these products, you can still get your hands on them before they disappear. Seriously, I feel like this summer has really been steeped in products that contain either banana or watermelon and I am very much here for it, so there was no way that I was going to miss out on trying these out. The Body Shop Banana hair care products have been a long time favorite of a lot of people, so it makes perfect sense that they would have shifted into banana body care as well. Personally, I think they're basically insane for making their Summer 2019 Wonderfully Wonky Banana products limited edition, but they are and so... HURRY! 

But first, keep reading to check out my thoughts on them... and then go get them before they're gone!

I know scents are subjective, but for my personal taste there is no better season for smells than fall. Sure, sometimes they go a little too far with the caramel sweetness, but I don't care because so often they're paired with something a little spicy or nutty or just... rich. I can get down with floral scents in the spring and fresher scents in the summer, but I'm always excited to get to when smells smell the best, and for me that's definitely fall. Have I gone on long enough? For Fall 2018, Avon has released some new body care products with classic fall scents, including Pumpkin Soufflé, as well as some gorgeous candles.

Hey guys! If you've read this blog for a while, you might already know that NIVEA is a brand that I always tend to come back to for hydration products for my hands and body. I've always had a soft spot for the brand - and that familiar scent - and I'm always up to try out their new products because I've had such success with their more classic ones. Recently the NIVEA Care Intensive Nourishment Non-Greasy Cream* has been living on my nightstand, a go to for before bed hydration, I'm excited to tell you guys about it!

Recently, I got the chance to try out a pretty cool selection of natural and organic products that were new to me - look for more reviews and content about those products to come - and some of the most exciting products in the selection for me were a couple of hydrating products. It was perfect timing, I must say, for me to start testing them out as I actually managed to get really sick in a way that meant I was dehydrated and needed a little help on he surface while I basically mainlined water for the inside, so I found myself reaching for The Green Beaver Boreal Lip Balm* and The Green Beaver Boreal Body Lotion* quite frequently during the course of that.

Even though I don't do it often enough, I always find that taking some time to pamper myself in a kind of at home spa day is an act of self care that's really good for the balance of my mind. Because I have anxiety disorder, self care is one of those things that can sometimes be difficult, but is also really important so I've been trying to be more mindful of doing things that aren't quite necessity but ultimately make me feel better. Recently, I've been using some Avon Planet Spa Heavenly Hydration Body Products* as apart of my pamper routine and I'm really excited to review them for you guys!
