Fresh's Advanced Sugar Lip Therapy & Polish Duo

I received this duo from QVC several months ago and found that it was a nice way to be introduced to the Fresh brand.

 

Included in this set are a full sized Advanced Lip Treatment balm and a travel sized Sugar Lip Polish.

 

Despite the size of the scrub, just a little bit is needed for a good lip exfoliation. I've been using this once a week and have hardly made a dent.

The consistency is thick and a lot more grainy than any other types that I have tried out in the past. While there are plenty of moisturising ingredients (jojoba, grapeseed, shea butter), I've still noticed that my lips feel dry and tight immediately after use. As of right now I'm still unsure of whether or not this will be repurchased.

 

In the beginning I didn't think much of the lip treatment, however, I recently made a trip to Sephora to replace my original (and now empty) tube. It goes on easily and has a light citrus scent. I apply this before bed and in the morning my lips are nice and soft.

 

If you've tried this please tell me what you think.

Friday Night Beauty

Many many months ago I started to do my nails on Friday nights..I'd wait until everyone was asleep, head downstairs with my nail bag, and give myself a mani/pedi while watching QVC.

From there, that little bit of "me time" has become an entire spa night that I call "Friday Night Beauty"...the name actually comes from the show I watch.

As soon as my son falls asleep, I start by taking off old polish, filing nails, giving my tired soles a good pumicing, and tweezing my eyebrows. Following, I give myself a Queen Helene Mint Julep Face Mask and then scrub my feet using Philosophy's Seniorita Margarita Foot Scrub. In the shower I like using the matching Seniorita Margarita 3in1 Shower Gel. As soon as I towel off I use the Fresh Sugar Lip Scrub to exfoliate my lips.

Once my comfy pjs are on I head downstairs, turn on QVC, and paint my nails while watching people talk about beauty products.

To many my age this might seem really boring...why would a 24 year old stay home on a Friday night? The thing is, after a stressful week this is exactly what I need to lift up my spirits.

I urge you to hold your own Friday Night Beauty some time and let me know how it makes you feel :)
