Spit-up On My Shoulder

This post may sound like an ad, but I’ve recently found two new products that I love and want to share with you. I’m happy to promote both of these products because I think they are great.

1) Neutrogena Energizing Sugar Body Scrub, Fresh Citrus, six ounce jar - I have dry skin, which only became drier after having kids. I also swim year-round and the chlorine does a number on my skin, making it dry and itchy, particularly in the winter. Lotions help, but I still get rough elbows and other rough patches.

The first time I tried this exfoliating scrub, I noticed how much smoother my elbows and skin felt. The fresh citrus smell wakes you up and the scrub didn’t dry out my skin at all - just left it smooth. I’ve only been using it a week, but my skin feels so much better. The retail price is $10.99, but you can get 2 for $18.02 at Amazon by clicking here.

2. Levi’s Perfectly Slimming 512 Jeans - Finding a pair of jeans that fits well has been a lifelong problem for me, and probably for you too. My butt size is bigger than my waist size (the difference became more pronounced after childbirth–my butt got bigger!), so most jeans fit one area well, but not the other.

I’ve finally found a comfortable pair that fits! The Levi’s 512 jeans are boot cut, have a tummy slimming panel (you’ll never know it’s there), are made of stretch denim, and sit at and fit my waist with no gap of fabric at the back of the waist. Yea! No belts (I don’t like wearing belts as they rarely fit me well either and ride up in the back), a comfortable, flattering fit on my butt, and they make me look taller and slimmer. I don’t say this often, but I love these jeans!

I’ve seen retail prices up to $46, but found the jeans for $29.98, including free shipping, at Denim Express.

Let me know if you try either of these products and what you think. Here’s to a more comfortably dressed, softer-skinned you!
