Perfectly Posh - Best Shower Ever!

I have a confession. Before I found Posh, I HATED taking a shower.  I still took them, but it was out of necessity, and they lasted 5 minutes or less. Now that I know all the wonderful things Posh has to offer, I look forward to a long shower. I have been known to take two showers on a Saturday or Sunday, just because I felt like it!

So let's talk about the Best. Shower. Ever.

I had a wax warmer on for about an hour, with a nice lavender scent in it, so the bathroom smelled I'm Turning Blueberry soothing face mask first, using a mask applicator brush.  Then set the shower head set to a rainfall intensity spray, and the water nice and warm, but not hot.
lovely and relaxing. I applied the

Stand under the water for a few minutes, then wash my hair with the End Mend Shampoo, followed by End Mend Conditioner which I combed through my hair and let sit. (After my hair dried, it was silky smooth!)

Now that my hair was being pampered, I rinsed the face mask off, then washed my face with the Olive My Love gentle face wash, followed by the Whole Lava Love for a nice exfoliation. My face was so soft and smooth afterward, I couldn't believe it.

With my face feeling pampered, it was time to focus on the rest of me. I used the  Love the Dark scrub from neck to waist for an all-over exfoliation which left my skin silky smooth. I moved on to the legs - again I used Love the Dark, but as a shaving cream! I rubbed it in until it turned into a lather of sorts, then shaved without rinsing first. This gave me a nice, close shave, by exfoliating before the razor hit my legs.

I didn't want my feet to feel left out, so I used the Rubby Scrubby exfoliating soap stick all over my feet to get off dead skin and callouses. The peppermint essential oil in it left me with a cool tingle, while my feet were nice and smooth.

Lastly, I used the Good Morning Beautiful {Chunk} to wash. I actually use a shower pouf with the {Chunk} - I just rub the soap on the pouf (which produces a nice lather, more than just using the {Chunk} directly on the skin) and then wash with the pouf. Rinse off, rinse conditioner out of my hair, and hop out of the shower!

Now it's time to moisturize! First I used the Never Grow Up anti-aging serum all over my face and neck to fight crow's feet and laugh lines from forming/getting worse. Next, I grabbed the Snuggle Buddy Skin Joy body butter which is a nice floral scent, but not girly at all, and not "old lady" floral, either. And there's just a hint of vanilla to it. Snuggle buddy from neck to toes! It soaks in really quickly, so I was able to get dressed right away without worrying that it would rub off on my clothes. By that time, the serum had plenty of time to soak in, so I used the Never Grow Up face cream to do double duty on the crow's feet and laugh lines. I may be turning 40 this year, but I don't want my face to look like I am!

I felt like I had just spent hours at a spa! But I didn't have to leave the house, spend a ton of money,  or put on any makeup!

Before bed, I will use the Call It A Night face oil on my face and neck, followed by the Goodnight Kisses lip mask, and the Warm Your Sole foot balm for some moisturizing and pampering while I sleep!

Perfectly Posh Product Review: Girl Crush Skin Joy Body Butter

This catalog transition, the body butters got a facelift! Posh kept the two base formulas and changed it up a bit. They added a foil vacuum seal, which allowed us to reduce the number of natural preservatives used. 

 

Girl Crush is the shea butter base formula, which is the thicker of the two. As you can see in the photo, it is very thick and creamy! The amount I have on my finger here was enough to cover both arms! This is going to be fabulous this winter when my skin gets dried out!

 

The scent is amazing. It's described as "a blend of apricot, orange, and a tart cranberry twist." I can't detect much of the cranberry, but the blend of apricot and orange is divine.

 

After putting this on my arms to check out the scent and feel, I have to say this is pretty awesome. My skin is nice and hydrated. I don't feel greasy at all! Like all the other Posh products, this body butter soaks right into the skin, rather than sitting on top of it like an oil slick.

 

 

Perfectly Posh Fall/Winter catalog is coming!

Posh comes out with a new catalog twice a year, in February and in July. Posh likes to keep things
seasonal! In July, it's HOT! It's time to start thinking of cooler days, so we transition into fall/winter scents. And in February, it's high time we start thinking spring, so we transition back into the more spring/summery scents.

The new Fall/Winter catalog is being revealed on Friday night around 9pm EST! Follow @perfectly_posh on Instagram for live reveals of retiring products and new products, Check out the Posh Facebook page for live reveals, or "like" my Posh page on Facebook to see all the new goodies! Websites will be down until around 10pm EST while the new products are added and retiring products are moved to the closeout section of the site.

The retiring products have been announced. If you missed seeing the list, all the retiring products can be found here. Complexion Perfection and the Hot Pepper Shabang! body butter have already sold out and gone into the vault.

With that being said, DON'T FREAK OUT!!!!! Just because a product retires, doesn't mean it's gone forever. Posh consistently changes with the seasons. And I've seen popular products return many times. And if it doesn't come back, it is replaced with something even better!

So, what does this mean for you? I'm glad you asked! New, awesome things are coming, and I get to share them with you!

As a consultant, I had to opportunity to order what is referred to as a "transition kit." This is a package of 7 new products, catalogs, and 2 packs of samples (I don't even know what I'm getting!) which will ship out on the 29th. I will try out all the new products, post reviews, and even send out samples! If you would like to be on the list of people to receive samples, please comment on this post, or send me an email with your mailing address to mrichards@bex.net.

Perfectly Posh product review - The Girl's Gone Green Skindelicious body butter

I've talked about body butters before on this blog. People often tell me "I don't like body butters. They make me feel like a greased pig." Before I found Perfectly Posh, I felt the same way. That weird feeling, where the "lotion" just sat on the surface of your skin, not doing a thing other than making you feel icky.

Perfectly Posh Skindelicious Body Butters are different. We use only the best butters and oils, and never use empty fillers.

The Girl's Gone Green is a new Skindelicious in this Spring/Summer 2016 catalog, and I just love it!

This body butter is SUPER thick and nourishing - loaded with shea butter and aloe vera. The shea butter and aloe in this body butter will make an awesome after-sun lotion! 

The scent is described as "Spicy floral, vanilla, and amber." To me, it is a nice earthy type scent. A little floral without being flowery, almost like an expensive perfume you would buy at a high end department store.

Perfectly Posh product review - Good Vibes BFYHC

I absolutely love the Big Fat Yummy Hand Cremes (BFYHC)! No joke, I have 10 different ones here on my desk! Every time a new catalog comes out, I find a new favorite, and this Spring/Summer 2016 did not let me down!

BFYHCs are made with coconut oil and apricot kernel oil. As you may have read in an earlier post about the BFYHC, you only need about a pea-sized amount. The lotion absorbs into your skin quickly, without leaving your hands feeling greasy.

The Good Vibes BFYHC has no dyes added (none of them do!) - just a creamy white lotion. And the SMELL!!!!

This smells like summer! The scent is described as "juicy mango with a hint of coconut." To me, it's a tropical drink on a white sandy beach, somewhere in the Caribbean. Fruity and sweet... I just want to lick my hands when I use it! It also reminds me of a really good smelling suntan lotion - the coconut in it isn't overpowering, it just adds to the "lying on a beach" feel of the scent of the lotion.

This is going to be my "go-to" hand cream this summer, for sure!

Seriously, I have 10 BFYHC here at my desk!
