Thought I'd mention it if you're like me and in need of something bigger, like a microdelivery peel set!

Of course, don't forget 3.5% back on ebates! Yes, that's my referral link, and yes we'll both get $5 if you sign up using it. :)

    I'm so glad you posted this, I just ran out of stuff.  Has anyone tried the foaming purity cleanser?  I always get the regular but am intrigued by the foaming.  Thumbs up or thumbs down?

    So funny you ask about the foaming. When I first got it, I did NOT like it. I stopped using it for a while, and then just started again about two weeks ago. I now love it. For some reason, my skin is just super clear now and it gets all the ick off my eyes (eyeliner, mascara, etc.)

    Maybe I should try it this time.  Do you find that the bottle lasts as long as the regular?  With regular hand soap from Bath and Body Works I always find that the foam pump ones go much quicker than the regular.

    No, it doesn't last as long.

    And really, if you think about it, all it is is a smaller amount of regular Purity mixed with a ton of water, and dispensed with a pump that foams it up. So it's kind of a rip-off actually. :)

    HA!  Thanks for being honest.  Maybe I'll stick to the regular since I'm cheap :)

    I'm cheap too, so whenever I buy something (like foaming soap) that I know isn't worth the money, I feel dumb. Even though it's a conscious decision, because damnit, I love the foaming soap from B&BW!

    The foaming soap from B&BW is fabulous but I only get it when there is a great sale going on...on a regular basis we get the Method soap, which I think I recently saw also has a foaming one.  I'll have to look into that...

    I buy the foaming stuff (any brand, really) because my husband is so weird and doesn't like the texture of the regular, more gel-like stuff or the creamy stuff. He calls it goopy and hates how it plops around on the sink. He is so freaking weird.

    You could always buy a foaming soap dispenser and mix it yourself. Or recycle empty foaming dispensers. Just give your home mix a good shake every once in a while and you'll be good to go. Then, your regular facewash will last that much longer and you can scoff at Philosophy for having beat their system ;)

    I've done this with hand soap before. I think I learned this from Rachael Ray once, when she talked about using the last bits of marmalade in the bottom of the jar to make a dressing. She said, "BTW, you can also do this with foaming soaps".

    I love a good money-saving tip!

    I did not know this!  I'll have to give it a try sometime!  Thanks for the tip!

    I have been using the same 3 B&BW foaming dispensers refilled with my own soap mix for the last 2 years.  I just do 1/10 Dr. Bronner's and fill the rest with water. Now I am thinking about doing the same thing with Philosophy!

    I'm intrigued!   I wonder if I have a dispenser at home that I can try this with.  It would be nice to have a pump dispenser, plus if I could save some $$, that's always nice. 

    Now, where are the money saving tips for HIAJ....   Big Smile
