OhSoCollege Must Haves!

Ok so I am extremely excited about college and this blog, and the fact that I am writing about college IN my blog makes me double extremely excited!! I have decided that, among other topics, I will have posts about items that I am definitely taking with me. I am naming these posts OhSoCollege Must Haves! So here are two of my first OhSoCollege Must Haves... bareMinerals Purifying Facial Cleanser and bareMinerals Purely Nourishing Moisturizer!

How did I hear about these Absolutely Amazing Items? Well one day I was shopping and remembered that I had run out of my bareMinerals primer that I love. (Oh by the way I am a big user of all bareMinerals/ Bare Essentials makeup and I swear by it!) So I walked into the bareMinerals store and asked for the primer. I was given it, but then was advised to check out their skincare line. So the makeup expert took me over to the skincare section and explained the items and what they do. I have pretty normal skin, so that is why I bought the Purifying Facial Cleanser & Purely Nourishing Moisturizer. I will admit, I wasn't sure what I would think, but I decided to take a chance. One plus was that the makeup expert said that when you change cleansers or moisturizers or forget to use it for a while that it won't affect your skin. This was one of my main concerns because when I had switched from cleansers in the past, I had a lot of breakouts. But since the bareMinerals products are natural and made from minerals, your skin is only helped and never harmed! They have many different products for all skin types and for what you are looking for. After the first time I used them I felt their great effects! (I know I might sound like a commercial trying to get you to buy a product, but I just really LOVE these products and want you to love them too!)

What is great is that the moisturizer and cleanser replace the primer. Right after using them your skin will be soft and makeup ready. What is also great is that they last long because you only need to use about the size of a dime. I definitely believe that these products hydrate the skin and make it smoother!

So these are my first two OhSoCollege Must Haves! I hope you enjoyed this post and that you try these products that I swear by! I will be packing these in my suitcase when I head off to Chicago in the fall! I'd love to hear what your favorite items are (even if you aren't heading off to college :D)
