THE BRIGHT SPOT

Food. Travel. Bargain finds. Random thoughts. A bright spot for sharing ideas and starting conversations!

Green Favorites

09.24.2012 by Leah //

I just realized that most of the beauty + hygiene products I’m using right now are in GREEN!  Check these out:

Listerine’s Natural Green Tea Antiseptic Mouthwash.   For a change, this mouthwash won’t burn your gums.    It has a very light and pleasant taste that will make you gargle a bit longer just to savor it.

Pond’s Anti-Bacterial Facial Scrub.  I’ve been using this since high school and will never, ever part with it.   I’ve tried other facial scrubs (both expensive and not, organic and not) but always went back to Pond’s.  This definitely works well with my skin.  It has significantly reduced oil in my T-zone and I’ve never had a pimple outbreak since I used this.

Human Nature’s Peppermint Lip Balm. I’m not kidding you when I say that this lip balm will cool your lips.   That’s the peppermint working I guess and it’s preciously for this reason why I love this so much.  It not only moisturizes my lips but keeps it cool as well.  Plus, it smells really great.

Olive Oil Dry Oil Mist from the Body Shop.  This best selling product from the Body Shop is also one of my favorites.   I love putting this right after shower.  It’s very light and not greasy at all, even though it has oil properties.   I am also in love with its smell which is simply divine.  I don’t how to name it but it’s fresh and definitely not fruit-y, something which I am not a fan of.

L’Occitane’s Verbera Leaf Soap.   I was able to try this when we stayed at Hotel Celeste last year because they have L’Occitane bathroom products.   It has a citrus-y smell that’s not overpowering, and the soap works a good, creamy lather with just a few scrubbing.    The only downside is the price tag which is steep compared to other commercial soaps that would work just as well.  Although it’s not something I would purchase immediately, it’s definitely one that’s nice to have again.  

Is any of my green favorites your favorite, too?   =)

I used to love taking pics of food for #foodstagram but now that everything's in takeout boxes, nakakatamad mag-food styling hehe! Anyway, whether it's in fancy plate or takeout box - the food should still taste good. And this one definitely did not disappoint! The souffle pancakes were oh so good, and despite traveling in a box were really soft up to the last bite. Yumyum! #doitforthegram
