Do you have dry skin? Maybe even eczema? Are you looking for something with little to no scent? Well then this review is definitely for you! Udderly SMOOth (ha that name lawl) products were originally designed for dairy cows but were so fabulous humans stole them for personal use. Okay…maybe that is extreme but really humans can’t let anyone have anything to themselves huh? All of the products I’m showing you today kill dry skin & totally saved me over the past few weeks. Keep reading to find out why you need these in your life!

Udderly Smooth Udder Cream– This is an ultra thick cream with barely any scent. I use this on my elbows & any spots that are ultra dry or have eczema. This cream doesn’t irritate the skin at all & actually soaks into the skin instead of sitting on top like some balms do. The bottle size is somewhere between a hand cream & body lotion size so I can throw it in my bag & will definitely be needing it for the cold, dry months ahead. Also…weird note…I’ve been nauseous & semi-sick recently (not pregnant, promise) & anything scented really made my head hurt. This was perfect!

Udderly Smooth Body Cream– This is similar to the Udder Cream above but a bit thinner & in the tub format. I like this type of packaging for right after the shower when my hands are wet & I don’t need tubes flying out of my hands & all over the bathroom. This doesn’t leave me greasy & I actually don’t have to use as much product as some of my others to get better moisturization. This also has a really light & neutral scent so it doesn’t clash with perfumes & such.

Udderly Smooth Shea Butter Foot Cream– So rich & thick! This cream is an amazing overnight treatment with some fuzzy socks! I’ve been trying to repair some of the summer sandal damage so this was a savior. The scent is neutral so if your spouse happens to need some too…no problemo! If you happen to have a significant other like mine you might have to wait until they are dead asleep but this product definitely works while being a very neutral scent.

You can purchase Udderly Smooth products from Walgreens, Drugstore.com, & the Udderly Smooth website. Everything is really reasonably priced so these are a bargain. Who knew cows had such great taste?

So in case you missed seeing my review & rave of the most beautiful soap ever…go look I’ll wait…I also have another couple of products from Arices to share! Today I’m talking up their sugar scrub in Notion which is luxe & smells like nothing else in my stash!

There are a few options for scenting but I went with Notice & I’m so glad I did! Notion is described as “Warm sunlight in a meadow. Soft grasses beneath you. With exotic eucalyptus and romantic lavender dancing across your skin, a notion finds you. Subtle and fleeting, you’re left only with an impression. This lightly scented sugar scrub transforms your shower into a fragrant oasis.“. I love lavender everything & oddly enough really enjoy eucalyptus. My husband & I both have allergies so I’m constantly looking for something to open my head up a bit in the morning. This is perfect because I like using a scrub a few times a week to really exfoliate.

This isn’t a harsh scrub but more of a maintenance type texture. I love the little wooden scooper that comes in it, so cute! This is also super moisturizing which my poor, dry skin really appreciates. This is packed with numerous oils including argan, almond, & eucalyptus oils. You get 16 fl oz which should last you quite awhile as well since it is finer & packed with oils so it spreads really nicely.

Overall very happy! & so are my allergy ridden sinuses! What do you think? What you favorite bath type scents?

I absolutely love Suave® products. You’ve seen them here before & you’ll be seeing a lot coming up as well! Seriously…they have transformed my hair! Anyway, back on the topic of softening up dry skin! Today I’m sharing two products foolproof for summer skin! I’ve been using Suave Naturals Mango Mandarin Body Wash & Suave Skin Solutions Smoothing Body Lotion with Cocoa Butter & Shea for the perfect one-two punch!
Everyday life can be rough, but Suave® Body Care is helping women everywhere realize that it doesn’t mean they have to be. The brand is teaming up with TV host, author and mom Wendy Williams to encourage everyone to Unlock their Softer Side, from their skincare routines to their mindsets.

Starting out with the Suave Natural Body Wash in Mango Mandarin, I’m in love! This definitely beats out other orange based body washes I’ve tried because it doesn’t smell fake at all. Instead, it smells like peeling a fresh orange. All zesty & crisp…yum! Then you get a touch of mango on the end. The combo is wonderfully crisp & energizing. This body wash is enriched with mango & mandarin extracts plus Vitamin E, so it cleans skin without stripping it. I prefer to use this with a pouf in the shower! If this scent isn’t up your alley, then you might like some of my other favorites like Rainforest Fresh, Milk & Honey Splash, & of course, Everlasting Sunshine. You can see my rave about the Suave deodorant in Everlasting Sunshine here with a completely unique scent!

To moisturize my dry skin I’ve been turning to Suave Skin Solutions Smoothing Body Lotion with Cocoa Butter & Shea. I love these types of scents, a bit warm & tropical smelling but not overpowering. I prefer these types of scents in the summer especially because I can layer it with other scents I tend to lean towards for summer. I find perfumes & body sprays with tropical type bases (such as coconut, mango, & lime) blend really nicely! The reason I prefer this body lotion (besides the scent obviously!) is because it is nourishing without being greasy at all. I find I can layer it onto drier areas throughout the day if needed & it leaves my skin soft & smooth.

Basically, Suave has my body care covered. I love that I can find the products locally from multiple retailers as well, so I don’t feel bad about stocking up! Suave fans can find out their softness score, check out Wendy’s tips, & have the chance to win a free product at here.

Whenever I’m in TJ Maxx I tend to walk out with something. Sometimes a nail polish other times a plate. This time, however, was a scrumptious body butter. The Nip + Fab Pistachio Sundae Dry Skin Fix Body Butter is something I’ve never seen before. How do I know this? Because I wouldn’t have been able to pass it up! Keep reading for my full review!
First…let’s talk about pistachios. I love them. For 100 day in Kindergarten…I brought pistachios. When I buy pudding? Pistachio. I love the taste & the smell so when I spotted this tub I really had no choice! This was $4.99 at my TJ Maxx & it was sealed. I pretty much refuse to buy anything not sealed there. There was one opened so I did get to smell it beforehand. I think that is important. If you don’t already know what pistachio products smell like, smell it beforehand or make Jell-O brand pistachio flavored pudding.

This body butter appears very thick upon first touch. It isn’t the thickest but it does lean towards that end of the spectrum. The butter kind of heats up in my hands & applies evenly. So incredibly soft on my skin, it melds really well. This scent also lasts a long time & smells kind of warm. I really need to use some of my summer scents since…it is summer…so I’m going to save some more of this for fall. It will be tough, I really like it. It makes me think of my grandparents who always made me pistachio pudding.

Do you love pistachios too? Are there any random scents that bring back memories for you?
