The Body Shop Re-Introduces Classic Blueberry Body Butter

With frigid temps sticking around for a couple more months, now’s a good time to bring a bit of summer into your bathroom with the fresh and fruity scent of blueberries.

Thanks to The Body Shop, you can treat your body to the brand’s re-introduction of their  Special-Edition Blueberry Body Butter for an indulgent pampering fix. The bath & body brand has been tantalizing our senses  with their luxe line of rich and creamy body butters (a variety of 20+ flavors/scents) for over  two decades and this decadent, blueberry-infused classic is no different.

The Body Shop Special-Edition Blueberry Body Butter available here, $20

Packed with moisturizing agents that hydrate and nourish the skin, this body butter contains Shea butter and oil from 500 blueberries! Plus, it’s rich in Vitamin E and other fatty acids that leave skin smooth and silky.

I am totally obsessed with this scent. It makes you want to sniff your hands just to get a whiff of the refreshingly sweet smell.

 

If the reintroduction of the Blueberry Body Butter wasn’t enough, there’s also an entire blueberry collection (Body Lotion, Lip Butter, Jam Scrub and a Blueberry Sponge) to make you long for summer even more. However, don’t wait until summer to purchase this berry good collection, it’s only available for a limited time!

New Year, New Workout

Happy New Year, I hope you guys had a wonderful holiday!

Although I didn’t go to Chicago (my hometown) for Christmas or NYE, I had a fantastic time here in New York with my family. And, when I tell you that I took advantage of the season (since Thanksgiving) to indulge in some of my favorite treats, I REALLY did.

From countless bags of gummy bears to bite-size marshmallow bliss, I had my fair share (and then some) of sugary snacks.  Now I’m left with those dreaded, pesky post-holiday pounds. Plus, I still haven’t completely shed my pregnancy weight.

Needless to say, since mid-December I’ve been hitting the gym harder than ever. Well, I actually really never worked out before, but that’s not the point!  Thanks to Beyoncé’s surprise HOT release, it’s kept me moving and motivated to melt these pounds away by March.

I’ll keep you guys posted on my progress!

Did you overindulge during the holidays? Did you make a New Year’s resolution? I know it’s been out for nearly a month, but what do you think of Beyoncé‘s new CD/DVD?
