Lamisilk Intensive Foot Therapy Repair Complex ($13.99 for pack of 2)
My Thoughts:
I’m not sure if this is still sold or not. If not, I’m positive Lamisilk makes a different version of the Lamisilk Intensive Foot Therapy Repair Complex. This is by far the best and most favorite foot moisturizing product I have ever tried. I wear flip flops almost all year round, and I need my feet to be looking their best. Lamisilk Intensive Foot Therapy Repair Complex is a serum that works quickly and doesn’t leave your skin feeling or looking greasy. It is also very light weight and has no unpleasant fragrance. After one use, you can see and feel a difference. My feet felt so soft and smooth! I’ve tried a lot of different foot creams and nothing has come close to working as well as Lamisilk’s. If you can find it, I say stock up.

 St. Ives Whipped Silk Advanced Body Moisturizer ($10.99 for 18 oz.)
My Thoughts:
I love St. Ives Whipped Silk Advanced Body Moisturizer. I have this in the travel size, and is what you will always find in my purse or backpack. I love the light, fresh scent and the non greasy feel. It will leave your skin indeed feeling silky, smooth, and oh so soft all day long. The moisturizer really does look and feel whipped. It comes out thick, not watery. A fun little tid bit: the dispenser is star-shaped! I don’t recommend using this as your main body moisturizer for those cold, dry winter months. It’s too light and may not be creamy enough. Since I live in California, I can get away with using it all year long. Love it!
Check out the photos of the star-shaped dispenser!

 Skin MD Natural Shielding Lotion + Sunscreen SPF15 ($25) Skin MD Natural™ is a state-of-the-art shielding lotion designed to duplicate the skin’s own protective barrier helping to protect skin against damaging irritants while providing hours of non-greasy moisture. This makes Skin MD Natural the ideal choice for dry skin treatment over other lotions for dry skin. Our lotions are made to be free of parabens, petrochemicals, dyes, and other irritating ingredients. They are also vegan, cruelty free, and eco-friendly. We don’t participate in animal testing or use any animal products in our lotions and Skin MD Natural is formulated in the United States in a facility that uses 100% solar power. Skin MD Natural and Skin MD Natural + SPF 15 are manufactured in the United States using 100% solar power, free of animal products and animal testing.
My Thoughts:
Skin MD Natural Shielding Lotion + Sunscreen SPF15 is almost exactly the same as Skin MD Natural Shielding Lotion except it contains SPF 15. You can read my review of Skin MD Natural Shielding Lotion here.
I actually brought Skin MD Natural Shielding Lotion + Sunscreen SPF15 with me on my trip to Australia. I’m glad I did because I needed all the SPF I could get since it was summer in Australia. Unlike the Skin MD Natural Shielding Lotion, Skin MD Natural Shielding Lotion + Sunscreen SPF15 has a less watery consistency, but it still has a thin consistency. If you hold the lotion up close to your nose, you can detect a slight herbal, natural smell. The texture of the lotion is very light and non-greasy and is quickly absorbed into your skin. After it is quickly absorbed, the lotion leaves your skin feeling soft and smooth. A little goes a long way so I can see a 4 oz. bottle lasting a couple of months. Even though you can use this lotion on your body and face, I only used it on my body, because lotions with SPF tend to leave my face looking a little shiny. The only downside of the Skin MD Natural Shielding Lotion + Sunscreen SPF15 is the $25 price tag. However, if you’re looking for a natural lotion with sunscreen, Skin MD Natural Shielding Lotion + Sunscreen SPF15 is worth it.

This is a Sponsored Post written by me on behalf of Carmex. All opinions are 100% mine.
 Carmex Healing Lotion and Carmex Healing Cream ($5.99 each)
CARMEX HEALING LOTION: Carmex Healing Lotion is made using a patent pending process that delivers healing and moisturization without a greasy feel.
CARMEX HEALING CREAM: Carmex Healing Cream is made using a patent pending process that delivers concentrated healing and moisturization of your driest, roughest skin.
My Thoughts:
I am such a huge fan of Carmex Original Tube so when I found out Carmex made healing lotion and cream I knew I had to have them.
The Carmex Healing Lotion is a non greasy lotion that left my skin feeling so soft and smooth for hours – morning until night. There is a light fragrance that reminds me of the Carmex Original Tube, but it disappears.
The Carmex Healing Cream is meant to be used on your driest, roughest skin. I use this on my heels which are dry and cracked due to constantly wearing flip flops everywhere I go. After a couple of days of using the cream, I noticed my heels are left feeling super soft and smooth. And just like the Carmex Healing Lotion, there is a slight fragrance. Also, I was quite surprised how non greasy the cream was. Usually thick creams leave your skin feeling greasy and slippery.
Both the lotion and cream feel very light and are quick absorbing.
I prefer to use the healing cream over the healing lotion because it provides more moisture which is great for using during cold weather. It’s very rare to find an affordable item that works as well as expensive products.
You can find both the Carmex Healing Cream and Carmex Healing Lotion at Walgreens stores, Walgreens.com, and drugstore.com

 Yes To Carrots C Through the Dry Spell Deliciously Rich Body Butter ($12.99) Yes To Carrots C Through the Dry Spell Deliciously Rich Body Butter is an amazing revitalizing body treatment for very dry skin. Application of this anti-oxidant rich body butter provides an immediate and long lasting moisturizing effect. Shea Butter, rich in vitamins A and E, improves skin softness and suppleness, which makes it ideal for dry or sensitive skin care. This lightly scented body butter is paraben-free and ideal for very dry skin.
My Thoughts:
Since my skin gets really dry during cold weather, I wanted to find a good body moisturizer. I stumbled upon Yes To Carrots C Through the Dry Spell Deliciously Rich Body Butter while at Ulta and decided to try it. C Through the Dry Spell Deliciously Rich Body Butter is a thick, rich moisturizer. It absorbs quickly and left my skin feeling so soft and hydrated. It’s a bit on the greasy side, but it is easy to apply and spread. Even though it is thick, it feels very light. One thing I didn’t like about the body moisturizer is the scent. It has a powdery smell. It’s not overwhelming and it does disappear, but it’s there. It’s not the best body butter I’ve tried, but it is pretty decent.
