I hit Pan Tag!

Hello my wonderful readers!
It might be a little too late to wish you all a "Happy New Year", so instead I 'm just hoping that the beginning of 2010 has been very generous to you, and that you and your loved ones are full of health, love, happiness, energy and positive attitude that will make 2010 a truly special year! :)

And what better way to start this year's posts than by telling you about products that I love and have repurchased over and over again?

The lovely Tacky Blue Eyeshadow gave me this opportunity by tagging me to do the "I hit pan" tag! Thank you sweetie!

The rules to this tag:

1. List 6 items that you have either "hit pan" or finished the tube/bottle of etc. and have or plan to repurchase for ever and ever! This can be makeup, skincare, haircare, bodycare or scent.
2. Tag 6 people that you want to know their repurchases.
3. Let those 6 people know by leaving a comment on their blog with a link so they know what to do

So, without further ado, I present you with my 6 items:

1. Gucci Envy Me 2. I first came across this perfume a few summers ago, as I was looking for a somewhat light summery scent, that wouldn't be too floral or too sweet (two things I generally hate in a perfume) and let me tell you, it was love at first...sniff! Lol! It's perfect for the warmer months, as it's an Eau De Toilette, and it falls under the green/floral category, but it's base notes of sandalwood and vanilla make it a bit more... interesting and closer to my taste. I really enjoy wearing it, as it balances perfectly between light and noticeable! ;) The only problem is that it was launched as a limited edition perfume, but I know that it can still be bought online, and that's what I 'll be doing, since I only have a few spritzes left! I hope it never gets discontinued, as I plan to be buying it for a long time!

2. Estee Lauder eyeshadow in "Tea Biscuit". I 've already blogged about this one here. It's probably one of the very few makeup items that I 've actually ever hit pan on and kept repurchasing! I 've been wearing this since high school, this shadow and some concealer where the only makeup products I would use to make me look awake in class! It's a gorgeous finish (perhaps similar to a Veluxe Pearl) and it adds a beautiful light sheen.

3. The Body Shop Peppermint Foot Scrub. Staple. I use it consistently all year round, combined with a pumice stone, as I suffer from quite dry feet. It's the only thing that I 've found to help my poor feet, along with the Foot Lotion from the same line. It has a pleasant scent and I love it's slight cooling effect - an absolute must at every pedicure session!

4. Korres Guarana Anti-Cellulite soap. I 'm addicted to this after the first bar I tried a few years ago, even though I don't believe that it has any spectacular effects on me anymore. Do I think it reduces cellulite? Um, nope, I mean there's so many lotions and creams out there that barely help anyways. Do I think though that it's essential to a cellulite-busting routine? Yes, most certainly. This soap works as an exfoliating one, leaving the skin extra smooth and ready for the lotion that would follow. Nowadays I just use it in order to massage the area every couple of showers, in order to increase the blood circulation and help smooth out any unevenness. I always keep a backup of it, just in case!

5. The Body Shop Vitamin E Lip Care. What can I say about this lip balm, I love it and I keep going back to it. It's the best from what I 've tried (but then again, I haven't tried the Carmex or Burt's Bees yet) and I really feel that it sinks into my lips, rather than just coating them for a few hours.

6. Apivita Deep Face Scrub satchets With Olive. My staple facial scrub, it exfoliates nicely as it has olive seed granules, and it's gentle, as it includes natural oils and vitamin E. It doesn't make your face feel tight afterwards, and it works for my combination/sensitive/acne prone hell of a skin, without being too harsh on it.


So, that was it for my repurchases guys!

And here's my nominations for this tag:
Bubblegarm
