Jordan Essentials Bath/Body Review and Giveaway

I am a girly girl when it comes to my bath and body stuff. I may only wear jeans and a tee shirt on a daily basis; but I love my skin to smell and feel good. So needless to say I was thrilled to get a chance to review Jordan Essentials Bath and Body products. I had never heard of this line before but let me tell you; it is a gem waiting to be discovered.

I was given the Basic Home Spa System to try. It comes with Lotion Bar, 4 fl oz. Shea Body Butter Tube, and 8 oz. Salt Scrub. I choose the Vine Ripened Honeysuckle scent and boy was I wowed. I had a hard time choosing between all the scents they have and finally let my husband choose for me. When I got the package I immediately tore into it. The scent was to wonderful and made me feel like it was spring time outside in a field. I felt like I was in Heaven. I will also say this is one of those systems where a little will go a long way. I love how soft my hands and knees are since beginning to use this system. The basic system retails for $29.00 but for the value of the product and the life of it I would say you get more then your money's worth.

WIN IT: One reader will win Basic Home Spa System in your choice of scents. (ERV $29.00)
