Favorite Things Exchange

One of my favorite things about the blogging world are the recommendations and product reviews from other bloggers.  Sometimes, the reviews introduce me to new products, and other times, well...I'm just nosy and enjoy reading what other people use!  So when Jessica and I started brainstorming this Favorite Things Exchange, I was pretty excited.  Excited to share one of my favorite things, but also excited to read about everyone else's!

First up--my favorite thing.  I make no secret of the fact that in the summers, I take two, maybe three, showers per week.  I just hate blow drying my hair when I don't have to!  Instead, I rely heavily on dry shampoo.  Whether I haven't washed my hair for a few days (#noshame) or I washed it the night prior, slept on wet hair, and in need a little something, I use dry shampoo almost every day.  I've tried all kinds of salon-quality brands - Moroccan Oil, Hempz, and Amika to name a few, but for the price and quality, Batiste's drugstore version ranks at the top of my list.  And if we're talking my most favorite, it would have to be the blush scent.  It smells so darn good!  Not only is this a quality dry shampoo (it doesn't weigh my hair down and doesn't leave it feeling full of product), but it won't break the break ($5 to $8 per bottle) and it doesn't require an extra stop at the salon/beauty store to purchase (sold at both Target and Walmart).  Win, win, win. 





I Amazon primed (ahem, another favorite thing, free shipping? yes please!) a bottle to both Emily (Three Boys and a Girl) and Stefanie (Lexie Loo, Lily, Liam, and Dylan Too!).  I hope you both love your dry shampoo as much as I do and if nothing else, it will work nicely as a good perfume! ;)

I received favorite things from Stephanie (Wife Mommy Me) and Missy (My Shitty Kitchen) and I'm excited to put both to great use!  To see what they sent, you'll have to visit their blogs. ;)


Thank you to all who participated and don't forget to link up and share your favorite thing using the widget below!  You can also share what you received, but it's not required.  And if you'd like, you can post your favorite thing to Instagram using the hashtag #favoritethingsbloggerexchange.

  3. I haven't tried this dry shampoo yet, but I definitely will now. I love using the dry shampoo after the gym. I shower my body, but hate washing my hair that much, so dry shampoo to the rescue. No shame.

  13. I JUST added this to my cart. I'm always searching for a good dry shampoo (if I wash my hair three times a week it's a Christmas miracle), and I have yet to find one I like. Totally giving this one a shot!

  14. I always see this one at target and heard great things about it! I will definitely be trying it out. The last one I bought I didn't like. I love the idea of this exchange too. I always find new things out from bloggers I never even knew existed.
