Yesterday I went to the beautiful wedding of a very close friend, and therefore I treated my beauty routine with a special added level of pampering. I only chose to use products that I really, really love, and wanted to savor the aromas as I got ready for this special day.

I am a huge fan of LAVANILA, and selected to use two of their products that are among my favorites.  Since I was wearing perfume, I was careful to avoid their body products with longer-lingering fragrances, and their The Healthy Deodorant in Pure Vanilla and Vanilla Bean Creamy Body Scrub were the perfect choices for me. If you love vanilla, then these are two products that you really need to smell on your next trip to Sephora, because they are absolutely delectable.

LAVANILA Vanilla Bean Creamy Body Scrub ($40.00 for 7.5 oz. from LAVANILA and Sephora): This is the creamiest and most delicious vanilla scrub imaginable. Unlike many body scrubs, that contain a variety of oils, this one isn't in the least bit greasy, and it does not leave the bottom of your shower covered in an oil slick. Instead, it has an ultra-creamy texture, that resembles a body cream infused with exfoliating particles, and the heavenly rich and warm scent of vanilla beans. It effortlessly removes dead skin cells and leaves skin soft, smooth, supple and wonderfully moisturized. 

According to LAVANILA,

The vanilla bean has been used for years to protect, condition, and repair the skin. The essences of this plant are rich in polyketones and polyphenols that work together to deliver youthful-looking skin texture and powerful antioxidant and anti-inflammatory activity. This ultra-creamy, non-greasy body scrub is formulated with crushed Madagascar vanilla beans blended with whipped shea butter and five nourishing essential oils. It whisks away dry, dead skin cells—revealing soft, hydrated, glowing skin.

LAVANILA The Healthy Deodorant in Pure Vanilla ($14.00 for 1.7 oz. from LAVANILA, Sephora): I am a longstanding proponent of healthier deodorants, and have been using them since I was a teenager. Though I have occasionally used mainstream deodorants, I do prefer to avoid the chemicals. LAVANILA makes wonderful healthy deodorants that are effective and smell wonderful (though they also make an unscented variant for sensitive skin). Their Pure Vanilla scent is currently my very favorite because it smells utterly scrumptious, and offers long-lasting protection.
