McEvoy Ranch Body Balm

I was in my college's shop looking for some stuff on sale (got some flip flops for spring break for $10 bucks! Whoo!) and saw some samples of a new product on a little table..

Something that is very well known about me- I have a sensitive nose. Not like, anything that smells is gross to me (although powerful smells can give me a headache) I more mean that my nose really really REALLY likes good smelling things! Bf just sighed because I zoomed to the sample table and started sniffing like a hound!

Picked up some "Body Balm" because it looked seriously amazing and get this... it smells like basil!!! I fell in love at first sniff! Ahh Italian goodness be mine! My only concern was, how am I going to get this where I want it without making my palms greasy?

Solution: Makeup sponge. Win.
(more after the break)

It's called Verde (otherwise known as green) and it's fitting! Reminds me of a clean earthy crisp salad or something. Idk. It smells green, but not the color. Follow me?

Bottle shot! It looks icky, right? So it has to be healthy haha!


I think it's the color my mom would call "monkey poop green", and she means that in a good way. It's a little more green than yellow in real life, why do cameras always fudge with the color? 

I've been applying this stuff all day, a little goes a long way! I get some on my makeup sponge and dab it onto my cuticles and knuckles. They are nice and soft now! This sucker is going to last me a loooooong while. I'm thinking about picking a few more up for a swap or giveaway, they would make for good gifts.


You can visit the makers site here where they sell for $22 (I got mine for under 20 at the student store, shhh! ^_^), but I haven't ordered from them so I can't confirm their shipping or timeliness. I can say they make a pretty awesome product!

<3 & sunshine! And healthy happy cuticles to boot!
