Products I love...
For 2 days, I've been down with the flu. I got it from my adorable little grandson, and it breaks my heart to think that he felt this bad. Poor baby!
Anyway, because of that, this is going to be a quickie no-nonsense blog written the morning that it needs to be up.
Then I'm going back to bed.
One thing that saved me while I was sick is this neat "anti-nausea" medicine my husband found on the Kroger grocery shelves. I'm sure there's a brand name of the same, but he always buys generic, and this just says, "Anti Nausea medicine." It's available in every drug store, and probably most grocery stores.
It works. Thank the heavens.
If you get this awful flu that's going around, please, give it a try.
That got me to thinking - what other wonderful products do I love?
First, because I hate hair sprays that leave my hair stuff or gunky, my salon talked me into trying Bed Head, Hard Head. It's awesome.
You spray it in, and then you can't tell it's there except that your hairdo holds. Straight, curly, whatever, you keep the style and don't have all that gung to contend with.
Also, because I have very fine hair, I now refuse to wash my hair with anything other than a body building formula. I've tried them all, from super expensive to super cheap, and honestly, I like the VO5 Extra Body shampoo and conditioner the best. Not only does it smell good, but it makes it look I have twice as much hair.
I don't do my nails often anymore, but when I do, I want it to last. So I LOVE Rush 60 Second Speed Lacquer. It dries your nail polish, makes your nails shine, and gives a super hard top coat that keeps them from chipping for up to 10 days. (Mine usually lasts at least 6 days.)
If you're like me, and always pressed for time, you resent the time it takes to fuss with all that after-shower lotion. But if you don't, you have winter skin. Yuck.
Well, the Olay line of moisturinse "in shower" body lotion is awesome. It takes seconds to use, you rinse it off, and voila! No other lotions are needed. It's my favorite new product.
In fact, I really like just about all the Olay products. At almost 50, I still have combination skin. I like the face wash cloths - they're little dry cloths that get sudsy when you wet them, and they're soooo easy to pack!
I also love the tinted lotion with sunscreen. I don't wear face make-up often (I don't wear much make up at all) and this takes care of sunscreen and gives a more even tone to skin.
Okay, that's my long multi-commerercial for the day.
Now I'm ready to go back to bed until the last draining effects of this virus go away.
So what about you? What are some of your favorite products to use?
What's the one thing you can't do without?
Tell us something that you think is so good, you wish you could convince all your friends to use it.
Be well, my friends! Avoid anyone with this bug, please. And if you do get it, have someone grab that anti-nausea medicine for you asap!
HUGS,
