B&B x Vaseline- Giveaway!

By Lauren and Julie

Did you know that 36% of women admit to cleaning out their medicine cabinet less than once every two years? Scary, right? Well, we're determined to not become a part of that statistic so today we're teaming up with Vaseline and taking you inside Lauren's medicine cabinet to show you what we choose to use on a daily basis in hopes that it may just help you weed through one or two of those mystery bottles clogging up your cabinet. 


Moisturizers: 

We recently started using Vaseline lotions because we figured that the brand we've all trusted for years to moisturize our lips with 100% petroleum jelly, must know how to moisturize our bodies, too! The Vaseline Total Moisture line, which is now better than ever, is a range of lotions that actually feel good to use while also doing good for your skin. The fast-absorbing formulas are really the perfect light-feeling lotions for the hot and humid weather we've been having here in NYC. It allows you to walk out the door feeling smooth and moisturized without that extra sticky layer of residue that most lotions leave behind. 


Antiperspirants: 

Without getting too personal, we've got to tell you about our latest obsession. Julie and I are always going back and forth talking about which antiperspirants and deodorants we're each using because we find our bodies' reactions and needs tend to change with the seasons. Anyone else know the feeling?? Well, we've found that Dove's Clinical Protection Antiperspirant/Deodorant officially stands the test of time (and seasons) combining 24-hour odor and wetness protection with its delicate and moisturizing under-arm formula. We always go for the light, clean scents of the brand's original formula since there's nothing worse than clashing deodorant smells with your favorite fragrance.


Hair-Care:

We all know how easy it is to get suckered into spending a fortune on luxury hairstyling products especially when you're leaving the salon, but we've found that Nexxus ProMend Split End Binding Bodifying Mousse is just as effective and a fraction of the price of some of those other brand name beauty products. It gives your hair gorgeous volume and control while working to bind 84% of split ends together with continued use. Yup, it had us at hello! 

That combined with TRESemmé's 24 Hour Body Finishing Spray is the final step that gives us that amazing 'just stepped out of the salon' feeling and look at home. This finishing spray is our fav because it's humidity-resistant, leaving our hair manageable and shiny, but never stiff. 


Actually, did you know that 27% of women admit to having products in their medicine cabinet that have been there for more than 3 years? It's easy to see how it could happen though with so many tempting new items to choose from in the aisles of our local pharmacies and drug-stores, but we're determined to keep it clean and simple. 

Tell us, how many lotions do you have in your own medicine cabinet?? 

Vaseline will generously choose 5 lucky readers to win a package of some of our favorite beauty and skincare products. Do share!

  2. I have decided I'm not buying any more products until I use the ones I have. So I'm stuck on this three year old bottle of peppermint conditioner. It's driving me nuts but every time I get a little closer it makes me feel good because I would have eventually thrown it away!

  10. I have four or five. Two of them are for my feet because a few years ago I let it dryness and skin irritation get quite bad and almost had to get stitches. SO I believe in prevention now and love on my feet every time I pass that medicine cabinet :)

  11. Looks great! And I LOVE how it's stuffed with MB products. My fave :)

    I actually just cleaned out my medicine cabinet for the first time in years a few months ago. But I don't really keep my beauty products in there. They're on another shelving unit in my bathroom, my linen closet and my vanity. I have way too much to tell you the truth. Guess I need another cleanup... :)
