Johnson's Bedtime Lotion



Johnson's Bedtime Lotion is what my husband and I use after a long and tiring day.


The packaging is great, never had problems with the pump.


Smells amazing. Calming lavender and pleasant baby powder scent.


Scent is long lasting, 5-6 hours.


Moisturizes well but does not feel sticky.


Leaves skin feeling soft.


This would not instantly make you fall asleep but it sure does help you relax and get a good night's sleep.


Great for a light massage.


Works well with Johnson's Bedtime Bath.


$6.50 - $8.50, depends where you buy it.


Contains Parabens.


This review is based on my experience with this bedtime lotion, I cannot speak for mothers and babies.


As an adult, I find this lotion great for nights when I really need to unwind. My husband finds this lotion effective too.


Will I repurchase? Yes. I love this lotion!




What product/s do you use to help you unwind at night?




Happy Friday!

Queen Helene Oatmeal 'n Honey Natural Facial Scrub Review

Queen Helene Oatmeal & Honey




Get rid of dull skin with our gentle, cleansing, natural-fiber facial scrub with soothing Oatmeal and Honey.


The exfoliating action of the Oatmeal draws out impurities, unclogs pores and removes dry, dead cells from the surface of your skin.


Pure, wholesome Honey helps replenish lost moisture and protects your skin from the harsh elements.


Your skin will look fresh and healthy and feel soft and smooth. Use once a week or more often if your skin is oily.


Perfect to use in the shower too.

Queen Helene Oatmeal & Honey



This is how the product looks like.



Queen Helene Oatmeal & Honey



Packaging is alright.


Light sweet scent.


Gently exfoliates. Great for sensitive skin.


Moisturizing, doesn't leave your skin feeling dry.


This did not make my skin break out.


$3.99 or could be less, depends where you buy it.


This scrub is good for everyday use but if you are looking for a scrub that would really exfoliate your skin and make it silky smooth afterwards, this is not the product for you.




I am giving this product a 4 out of 5.


Will I repurchase? I am not sure, not really in love with it.





Happy Thursday!
