This Just In: Scents and Stuff

Here's another segment at She Goes Thrifty! Ladies and gents, please welcome This Just In!

So it's pretty self-explanatory, but if you're too tired to figure it out, This Just In will feature new things, may it be given to me as a gift, as a means of self-gratification, as a sponsored something (a girl can dream, okay?), or as an item sent in for review, regardless of the purpose, I will share with you some of the novelty in my ever-changing supply of "stuff."

Two packages arrived at my mom's office's doorstep today! The first is from Ate Shiela, a dear relative of ours and Rania's mom! You know Rania, the pretty little kiddo you've probably seen in my previous posts (if you've been hanging on to SGT long enough). And the second is from my beloved father. Thank you for the presents! It will take me forever to use these all up and another forever for me to smell horrendous, thanks to these bottles of olfactory goodness! 

Yay for loot! :D

Some lip balms and a pot of lavender salve (I only see rose salve here in the Philippines).

Bath and Body Works Body Sprays <3

Aaaand some Victoria's Secret too!

Want a spritz? ;)

Love,

NO MORE: July

Hello, everyone! I'm adding a new segment into She Goes Thrifty, called No More! Every now and then, expect to see my very own hit-pan posts where I share products I've emptied out and used up. 

For the first edition, check out these products that I really loved and enjoyed using:

1. Nivea Dry Comfort Anti-Perspirant
- it promises 48 hour protection against perspiration
- doesn't have alcohol or colorants
- has a clean, crisp scent
- it doesn't darken my underarms
- doesn't sting at all
- I don't think I'll repurchase anytime soon. I have another Nivea bottle waiting to be used.

2. Human Nature Hand and Foot Salve (Eucalyptus, Carrot, and Bee Propolis)
- check out my review about it HERE
- I still have the other variant to use up.
- as always, Human Nature products never disappoint. :)
- repurchase might be out of the picture in the near future. I already have a second pot waiting in line.

3. Bugz Off Citronella Spray
- not greasy
- I use this alternately with my Human Nature Citronella Bug Spray
- no overwhelming scent
- gets used up pretty easily due to the spray-on format
- pretty affordable. Got this one at Watsons.
- I'm happy with bug spray from HHN so I'm not going to buy another bottle of this one anytime soon.

4. Human Nature Sunflower Beauty Oil
- my review on  this can be seen HERE
- repurchased! I don't mind buying this again and again. It works in more ways than one! Value for money indeed.
- one of Human Nature's bestsellers!

5. Victoria's Secret Deep-Softening Body Butter in Wild Scarlet
- love the scent! According to the label it has the scent of juicy apple and lily.
- comes in a big tub
- got this from my Dad, he bought it in the States.
- very moisturizing indeed!
- the consistency is a bit thicker compared to The Body Shop's body butters
- has a matching lotion and body spray

That's about it... At least for now. Looking forward to posting my next No More entry in August! Wee! How about you? Have you emptied out any beauty product lately? Tell me all about it! :)

Love,

SGT <3
