Every now and then I manage—either through some freebies I procure, or the kindness of friends who give me lovely gifts—to become completely addicted to products which are far too expensive for me to buy on a regular basis. Woe is me. Rather, woe is my spoiled, greedy self. Ha.

I have yet to find the philosophy product that doesn’t make my eyelashes flutter while I sing a little song of joy. Recently I received yet another wonderful philosophy product and it’s killing me, how good this stuff is, and how I do not want to be spending my money on it.

Well, drugstore.com does a regular philosophy freebie where if you order a given amount, you can get something for free. That’s all fine and dandy, but sometimes the freebie is something I can easily talk myself out of. But right now the deal is a free microdelivery peel kit (worth $30) with a $50 purchase. That’s… tempting. Very tempting.

Why, I could get fancy lip balms (mimosa? yes please!) for my friends for Christmas and keep the peel set, even. Hmmmmm.
