this thread is inspired by Gina’s thread “most expensive and useless products”
so what are some INexpensive and USEFUL products?
Re: Inexpensive and useful products
St.ives body scrub!
Re: Inexpensive and useful products
^That is good as a body scrub, NOT a face scrub. Derms dont recommend it b/c the granules are not rounded, they're quite "sharp" and tear the skin.
Inexpensive products:
- Nivea Creme (German version, not the Mexican one)
- Witch hazel (as a toner)
- Avon Blackhead Toner (has salicylic acid in it)
- Sleek Blushes
- Hand sanitizers from Bath & Body Works
- Almond Oil (works great as a moisturizer but also for makeup removal or to rub into cuticles)
Re: Inexpensive and useful products
Vaseline..

Re: Inexpensive and useful products
St.ives body scrub!
which one? the one that's in a tub that is marketed as a body scrub or do you use the face scrub as a body scrub?
Re: Inexpensive and useful products
^ I've done both, lol. It doesn't matter, I don't think, the formula for both seems the same. I use it on my elbows and knees...great exfoliator for those areas!
Re: Inexpensive and useful products
Vaseline
Lush's lip scrub ( I love the Bubblegum one)
Nivea moisturiser ( the best moisturiser i've tried so far, it works great as a foundation base)
