Winter’s right around the corner
, and for many of us that means switching up ye olde skin care routine to include richer, more moisturizing products.
But no matter which season we’re talking about, one product I won’t stop turning to is Philosophy’s Purity Made Simple One-Step Facial Cleanser.
A creamy face wash for dirt, oil and makeup, it never rubs my combination dry/oily skin the wrong way, and that makes it a staple in my skin care arsenal.
It also brings me to the topic of this post…
Ready for a mid-week giveaway?

I hope my sleep will get better!
One big thing I hope for is to finally get a “real” job. It’s been almost a year since I graduated, and I’m anxious to get out of this rut I’ve been in and start my life.
I hope to do well in school and lead a happy, full life~
Please include me in the giveaway. I hope I will continue to lose weight. Thank you.

I hope I finish this grad school application soon! :-p
i hope my friends and family will be well and i have a bright future
I hope the birthday gifts I ordered for my mom arrive on time! There have been all kinds of shipping delays/factory issues… you’d think ordering at the start of October for a mid-November birthday would be safe, but apparently not!
I hope that every one gets what they hope for. And I hope that the future is bright.
I’m really hoping that my sister will be able to find a job soon. She has been unemployed for a year and a half and is desperately searching. The stress is really starting to take a toll on her. (I might add that I’m in the same boat-unemployed too. So I’m hoping the same for myself as well.)
for peace!
I hope for good health and happiness for all good people, and of course, world peace!
I would like for my family/loved ones (and me) to be wildly successful, prosperous, healthy and happy.

I hope to get better at my job, do amazing on all my final projects and final tests to come, and that I have fun and safe holiday memories with family and friends.

I hope that there is peace in the world, put aside the differences in religion, culture, races etc. We are all human being, what’s the point of seeing others suffer, or waiting at home worrying all the time while someone you care or love is at war?

Harmonization is all we ask no matter where we are.
