Philosophy Purity Made Simple Foaming 3-in-1 Cleansing Gel for Face and Eyes

Simple, effective cleanser!

The only drawback to this cleanser was the smell (I dislike the smell of lavender), but I've gotten used to it after using it for a while. It cleans thoroughly without drying my face out, which makes it perfect for my combo skin. I also really like that it removes makeup! Do be aware that it doesn't really foam at all, but it cleans well without the lather.

Philosophy Hope in a Jar

Love this one (after getting used to the smell)

I really dislike the smell of lavender, so it took me awhile to get over the smell of this cream. However, it works so well for my skin that I can overlook it! The cream itself is a very light texture, so it doesn't make me too oily, but it moisturizes my combo skin well (even the dry patches). I also love that I don't need to use much to get a great result. I do really wish that they'd make a version with SPF in it, since I often want to use this during the day w/o adding an extra product (sunscreen).

Lush Soap

Angel's Delight Soap

This is the pink & purple bar with the stars, and is a holiday item. I LOVE the smell of this soap. It's so amazing (like fruit punch)that I want to eat it! Love the colors too--so girly and fun. However, there are stars embedded in the soap, and they really hurt, so I pick them out. Also a little disappointed that the smell doesn't last, but it smells great in the shower. As with any regular soap, it's not moisturizing, so you'll probably want to use lotion afterwards if you have dry skin.
