SUYL: Favorite Beauty Products

TGIF and happy first day of April!! Today I'm linking up with Erika, Narci and Andrea to share my Friday Favorites AND Kelly’s Korner for Show Us Your Life:  Favorite Beauty Products. I just have a few items to share but I'm REALLY more excited to search the link-up and possibly find some new products.  I get giddy over new must-have beauty products.  How about you?!  Thanks for stopping by :)

 1) L'Oreal Sublime Bronze –Tinted Tanning Lotion

I started using this product several summers ago and it's become a staple!  Anyone that knows me, knows my tan must come from a bottle because I am constantly preaching the harms of the sun and tanning beds.  Oh how I wished I could take back my years of worshiping to the sun gods for so many reasons!  But anywho, a pasty girl still wants a tan and this product is amazing!  I typically use it about two-three times per week {after a shave} all over.  The lotion is tinted with a subtle hint of glitter so it is easy to see where you have applied to eliminate streaks.  Sometimes I still get streaks when I am in a hurry, but after the next application or a little lotion they are basically unnoticeable.  I love that Sublime gives you an instant glow and does not rub off on your clothes nor does it have a strong smell.  Best of all, it costs less than 10.00!! Let me know what you all think!!

The photo above was in November of this year on our cruise.  I have an office job and I'm white.  Just a few applications of lotion :)

 2) Herbal Essences Naked Dry Shampoo

Confession: I HATE to wash my hair.  I have TONS of it and it takes a lot of work to dry and style so the longer I can go between washing's the better.  I have better things to do like play with my little cowboys.  I've tried a few other brands of dry shampoo and this is my fav.  You just lightly spray it into your roots (I then let it dry for a minute while I brush my teeth, or something) and then comb it through. My hair instantly looks refreshed and clean. I love that I can go longer between washings without looking oily.  The product smells delicious too.  I don't know why but it also seems to help conceal my roots better when they start growing in.  #winwin

I recently shared this product with my cousin, Megan... isn't she gorgeous!?


3) Chi 44 Iron Guard

 Before I found this product my hair would NOT hold a curl.  I always thought it was the curling wand - but after a sweet friend offered to fix my hair and promised that the curl would hold, AND IT DID, I was hooked!  I just spray one squirt on each section right before I curl and it's like magic. The awesome thing is, in addition to helping hold the curl, it acts as a heat guard (hence the name) and smells amazing.

4) Neutrogena Makeup Remover Cleansing Towelettes

I happened upon these because our local store was out of my Pond’s wipes.  I was instantly in LOVE after one use.  I can honestly say I had never felt my skin feel so clean and refreshed as it did that night. These babies make removing makeup a breeze.  I wear MAC Pro Longwear Foundation, which is a heavier makeup, for coverage and in the past I never felt like it was fully removed.  I use one at night after my shower and they remove EVERYTHING, even waterproof mascara with one wipe and leave my skin feeling just the right amount of moisturized and refreshed.  I use another one in the morning before I put on my makeup just because I love them and they make my skin feel so refreshed.  They're a must-have so now I purchase in bulk from Sam's Club.   

Thanks for stopping by!  Now let's get this weekend started.  We're looking forward to helping Tyler brand baby calves this weekend.  I'm sure I'll be "over-gramming" so follow us here.
