Lately we've been doing alot of crafts and getting outside prepping our garden :) I've been testing products which is a lot of fun, esp because they're free. I'm doing the new secret deodorant Cool Waterlilly & OLAY's new Daily exfoliating with sea salt. Ill show a couple of products I completed before this one.
