Drugstore Skin and Bath Products Haul with Mini Reviews

This is my latest drugstore haul from CVS. I had some extra bucks, and red box coupons so I decided to shop. I might have a shopping problem and you might be right.


I heard Eucerin is a good skincare brand for people with dry and sensitive skin so I decided to try the Eucerin Daily Protection Moisturizing Face Lotion. It is a moisturizer plus sunscreen and has broad-spectrum SPF 30. I've used it a few times now and I just love this product. It is lightweight, glides on smoothly, sinks in very fast, hydrates my skin, does not cause any irritation, and does not leave any white cast. So far so good, but I will have to use it long-term to see if it is worth a repurchase. I might do a detailed review in a later post.

The Clear Scalp and Hair Therapy Total Care is a new product and I've been seeing it everywhere, so I decided to give it a try and see if it cures my dry, itchy, sensitive, and acne-prone scalp in any way. I've used it a few times now and I feel like it does nothing special. It's a pretty regular, average shampoo. And I'm not sure my opinion is going to change after using it completely.

I needed a good conditioner so I got the much-hyped Organix renewing Moroccan Argan Oil conditioner to help control frizz. After a few uses, I feel it is a good conditioner and works pretty well. I'm going to try other conditioners from this brand as well.

I'm done with makeup removing tissues so I thought I'll try a 2-in-1 cleanser cum remover that doesn't irritate my face. I got the CeraVe Hydrating Cleanser which is supposed to be a dermatologist's fave/recommended, not just written on the bottle but for real. I've used it a few times so far and this cleanser is so moisturizing I don't feel the need to apply any moisturizer afterward. I don't wear any heavy or waterproof makeup so I cannot comment on that but it's good for removing normal makeup and sunscreen.

Have you been using any new skincare products lately, let me know. Hope you're all doing good.

Top 12 Things to Buy from Kruidvat own Brand

 We've been seeing inflation here in the Netherlands since October last year. It's just plain ridiculous to see something that I paid 5 euros for a few months back is now around 7 euros or maybe more. That doesn't sound like a lot but when you buy about 50 things (food, groceries, toiletries, etc.) for your house, it all adds up and overall you are paying 50 to 100 euros more than what you were paying previously. But unfortunately, not a lot of us have seen this increase in our pay and many people have even lost jobs during and after the covid crisis. So it's only natural for us to want to save our money wherever we can. But that said we also do not want to compromise on quality. And that is where the idea for this post comes from. Kruidvat is a drugstore that is similar to CVS/Walgreens in the US. Products sold here are mostly hygiene products, cleaning supplies, makeup, and over-the-counter medicines. I have been shopping here for hygiene products for years. By now I

April 2012 Favorites and Regrets

I can't believe April has already come to an end. I can't say I'm sorry either because this means less rain, more blossoms, and summer in another month. So without further ado, I present to you this month's beauty and makeup favorites. For those I've reviewed I have linked them to the blog post. For the rest of them, I left short reviews of why I did or didn't like them. As you can see there are quite a few things I've been liking this month. The list of all things beauty I've been loving/using frequently are: (in left to right order) Aussie Instant Freeze Hair Spray Extreme Hold: This product is just wow. The windy city can be brutal to hair and this product is really a blessing. It's easy to use and smells great. It's not too expensive and comes in a huge bottle. Clairol Herbal Essences Hydralicious Reconditioning Conditioner Jergens Shea Butter Deep Conditioning Moisturizer: I first got introduced to this lotion when I was in India and

5 Things that Did Not Work for Me to Lose Weight with Hypothyroid/PCOS

 I have been suffering and dealing with Hypothyroid/PCOS for about a decade now. Weight gain is one of the main problems of people struggling with these two chronic illnesses. I have tried a lot of things to reduce weight and over the years I have been through many trials and tribulations and made many mistakes in the process of trying to lose weight.  The following tips come from my experience and these are mistakes you might want to avoid if weight loss is your goal with Hypothyroid/PCOS. Counting calories : Like many others, I bought into the belief that by counting calories and limiting my calorie intake I would be able to lose weight. But this is a very bad way to start because it gives you the idea that you can eat anything and everything as long as you are limiting your calorie intake. And since most foods like junk, and ready-made foods that you buy at the supermarket come with a lot of calories, I used to overall eat very less, not get enough nutrition, starve myself, and then
