The Stylish Life Loves Borghese Cura-C Anhydrous Vit C Body Scrub
Every girl (and guy) needs a good body scrub.
Borghese Cosmetics Cura-C Anhydrous Vitamin C Body Scrub is amazing.
It has a light grainy texture that is not overly abrasive to the skin.
The scrub has no water but contains Vitamins C, A, and E.
It also has Squalane, Sunflower Oil, Carrot Oil, and Multi Vitamin CoQ10 Complex.
I use Cura-C scrub daily with my exfoliating gloves.
I love how soft and smooth my skin feels afterwards.
Check out all of Borghese Cosmetics Bath & Body products.

Shopping: Spring/Summer 2011
Despite the fact that Chicago just refuses to warm up, I am putting the finishing touches on my spring/summer fashion list. My shopping budget is small this year because there are a few trips I plan to take and I have a lot of unworn clothes I purchased last year. I am an admitted clothes hoarder; I’ll buy something cute, hang it in my closet and forget about it.
Sunday night I moved a lot of forgotten items to the front of my closet, removed the tags, and added them to my wardrobe tracking spreadsheet. That was two hours of my life that I’ll never see again… After that task, I was able to finalize my shopping list.
My List:
What's on your spring/summer shopping list?

Weekend Mani: Sally Hansen Complete Salon Manicure in Bittersweet
Check out my manicure from Friday. The polish is Sally Hansen Complete Salon Manicure in Bittersweet. I love this color, a rich, super dark chocolate brown. Bittersweet was a part of the Fall 2010 color collection. This will be my last dark mani for the season, time to lighten up for spring.
I wonder if I could get a side hustle as a hand model. I should look into that... Anyway, Sally Hansen Complete Manicure is the drugstore equivalent to the salon brands in my opinion. When the new collections hit the stores, grab them because once they are gone, it is impossible to find them! I still have been unable to find ANY of the Tracy Reese collection.
Disclosure: This post is based on a product that I received for consideration by the company.
