One Minute Hand Scrub ($22) in stores and online. Amping up scrubing time to get rid of dead skin cells is a must in frigid weather, especially if you’re like me and go from a sauna-like apartment to freezing weather outside throughout the day. More after the jump!
All of the newbie L’Occitane products are formulated with Shea Butter
and none are super harsh so they work on sensitive skin like mine. I
don’t typically use a scrub on my hands, but since they’re the most
prone to dryness and I was too lazy to trek through the snow last week
for a manicure I did a little DIY mani/pedi at home. It’s a nourishingly refreshing hand treatment you can pamper yourself to 2-3 times a week and follow with hand cream. L’Occitane has always been a reliable winter go-to for me and these haven’t disappointed, just don’t forget to follow any of the scrubs with moisturizer and drink lots of water to stay hydrated from the inside too!






the same thing happened to us when the Iceland volcano erupted last year– trip to Italy cancelled. Boo!! It’s definitely worth the $62 per person to buy travel insurance. Now, I always do no matter what!
I guess you have to learn the hard way:( I would never even have thought to get travel insurance, but now I will never ever book a long distance flight without it..can you believe Air India had the nerve to tell us “use it or loose it”!
wait…they didn’t refund your money for the canceled flights over to India?
we were refunded for the flight out to India but not the flights within India and the flight back…and even just getting that refund was a major headache! I’m talking being on hold for 3-4 hours…never book expedia!!
