Aside from an otherwise blah weekend that kept me insanely bored, I did manage to escape the house and do some 'light' shopping. I say light, because I've technically put myself in a shopping timeout. No new clothes or shoe purchases allowed! Until when...I'm not even sure.

Back to my light shopping. I went to Ulta in search of a foaming face cleanser for my Clarisonic. I had been alternating between the sample one supplied and my regular Neutrogena one, but none of them were cutting it.

I did some research and found a contender - Philosophy's Purity Made Simple.

I searched high and low at an unfamiliar Ulta and only came across Philosophy bath products. I asked an employee and she had never heard of the brand. Really? Wow.

I refuse to leave defeated so I just wandered the aisles until something caught my eye. And something sure did. I saw this brand on the very bottom shelf. Like literally, almost on the floor. It's called Formula 10.0.6 and I know you can't read a book by its cover but I really liked the packaging design. I know, I'm strange. I'm in a creative field - I can't help it, I pick up on designs and some things just stand out to me. Not to mention, the type design is similar to my save the dates. ;)

So the first bottle I picked up was the Best Face Forward Daily Foaming Cleanser. I read the description and liked the ingredients. I turned the bottle around and read "MADE IN AUSTRALIA" and that's it, I was sold.

I also picked up the Deep Down Detox Ultra-Cleansing Mud Mask.

Both of these were only $5.99. I grabbed the two bottles and walked away. I wanted to purchase the entire line but figured I should first try it out. And I can say, so far, so good. It's only been a day but I've used the cleanser twice and it definitely foams up with my Clarisonic. I haven't tried the mud mask yet, but I'll get around to it this week. And if things look good, I'm heading back and trying the moisturizer.

I love random finds.
