If you find a regular foot file or buffer too rough and hard, try this soap. This soap for feet has exfoliating beads inside, which make my feet soft and smooth. The minty scent gives a refreshing, relaxing and clean feeling. But it is quite small and too expensive for one bar, and the soap gets a little crumbly already after 2-3 times. I got one from my sister-in law whose husband occasionally suffers from athlete's foot problems. I can imagine that this soap would feel good against itchy feet. lol

A friend of mine recently gave me a basket full of BBW's Sleep collection, and this is my absolute favorite one. OMG! This stuff makes my skin, nose and mind happy! This milk & honey combo is so calming. Oh BTW, since this does not make foams like bubble bath, I suggest you wash your body first then soak in it inside the tub. Another reason that I like this luxe bath is unlike some bubble bath products, the tub does not get really dirty with too much soap scum so it is easier to clean next day. If you love the scent of Burt's Bees Milk & Honey body lotion, you must try this one!

I got this perfume last holiday. It has the combination of the woody and floral scent, which I find neither very special nor unique. I have a few similar perfume sprays, and without seeing the bottle, I would probably not be able to recognize that this is J'adore. Although this fragrance is definitely feminine, it is just a bit too strong for me. I love simple yet sexy the bottle design, but I knew this would sit on my makeup vanity for a long time, so I gave it to my sister-in law, who loves Dior makeups.

In summer I carry one pack of oil blotting paper in my handbag. This may not be the best one (this feel a bit more plastic than paper) , but definitely the most affordable one. It helps remove excess oil and dirt. but often one sheet is not enough for me, and also depending on a type of foundation, this sheet does take off some foundation.

Sometimes my zits on my face give me mild burning feeling. I was recommended to try this product. This mask looks like clay, smells minty, and the blackish scrubs are visible. It dries very quick once I apply it on my face, but I leave it on for a while. It gives me a cool and soothing sensation so I like to use it especially in summer. My skin feels clean. Once you open the product, I recommend you not to wait too long to finish the tub. I completely forgot about this mask after I used the one-third, and now it looks a bit like hardened clay.

This is the dryer we have been using for 5 years. We got it at Wal-mart and it was one of the cheapest dryers at that time. The stages are warm, hot, extra hot, and cool. I usually use warm or hot since the extra hot is definitely too hot. The air suction grill is easy to clean, and it gives very good airflow. It is a bit heavier than hair dryers at my gym.

This razor gives pretty close and clean cuts. I like the built-in moisturizing cream around the cartridge and when in hurry, this comes in handy. However, it does not give the exact smooth feeling as when I use a shaving gel. Unfortunately, I notice that if I don't use it for a whole, the moisturizer part gets dry and crusty. Very unpleasant. The big handle is easy to hold, but at the same time it is too bulky to be my regular travel razor. Oh, yeah, the refill cartridges are a bit pricey.

This one is not ideal for sensitive or dry skin, but even with oily skin, use this with caution because this astringent can be a little harsh. It is so strong that my skin (especially around nose) was starting to flake and peel, and my skin looked very thirsty and needed strong moisturizer. However, it seems to work fine for my husband skin. He likes the refreshing scent, which is perfect in the morning.

I cannot wait to use scented oil for my "me" time. This BBW's oil warmer is pretty but my only complaint is that this classic design is not as easy to lit/place/remove a tea light candle as other burners. BTW, if you don't want to show a tea light candle, I recommend their mosaic line. I got a few for myself from BBW and Body Shop, and every holiday season I give some to friends/family. Depending on my mood or theme, I change my oil warmer AND fragrance. What I also like about BBW's oil warmers is that they are more affordable than Pier 1.

The micro powder is very smooth. The color I chose (chrome) looks too light on the applicator, but I can see the vivid color just after one coat, and the color stays long. For the bold colors I use MAC's eyeshadow, but for pastel colors, I like Dior's color selection.
