I smell good.
The kind of good where a clerk at my local coffee shop told me so.
Really good.
Like the kind of really good where my 2 1/2 year old grandson told me so.
Really, really good. The kind of really, really good (try not to read this, girls!) where my husband told me so as I was climbing into bed last night.
What can make all these people from just about every generation come to the same delicious conclusions?
Suave exhale calming body wash and the new Suave exhale calming body lotion, both in exquisite lavender vanilla scent.
I am not kidding!
The nice people at Suave sent us at Mom Generations some products to use. To try. To test. Little did these nice people at Suave know, I guess, that I have been using Suave products since way back in college in the early 70’s!
Back then, cost was a pretty big factor in my purchase selections.
Today, for this Grandma, love of the product is the major factor. I have tried many, many very upscale body wash and lotion products that make me feel clean, silky, smooth, refreshed and even sexy… but none has elicited the comments and compliments like the Suave exhale calming lavender vanilla line.
Does the lavender vanilla scent inspire some magical mood? Maybe. Both lavender and vanilla are known for their soothing qualities.
Do I exude calm? I’d like to think so.
Are the men in my life (even the coffee guy?) just paying more attention? Now they are!
But let me go back to the beginning. I smell good. Really, really good. And I love that I do.
I am a very busy woman… I own my own business with my two adult daughters. I spend lots of time with my 8 (any minute now, 9) grandchildren. I entertain a great deal. I travel with my husband. I can be found at the beach, in my garden, in the kitchen, swimming laps, running, touristing (is this a word?), playing…
So I need my bath and body routine to be simple. But wonderful.
I need my bath and body routine to calm me. I will even go so far as to say inspire me.
Motherhood may not always be pretty…
But Grandmotherhood sure is. Every second of it. Thanks, Suave for helping with the “pretty” and calm and delicious.

I got a sample of the body wash in the mail last month and I love it too! Honey, however, is a little less enthusiastic. He’s not such a fan of lavender, especially on me. Supposedly it doesn’t match my personality well. Guess I’m not a very ‘calm’ person.

I fell IN LOVE with the Suave Exhale just before Christmas and loved it so much, I included it in care baskets for my mom & sister for Christmas! I just love them! I just ran out of mine, again. LOL I love how it smells and makes me smell! LOL

With 5 kids, I am ALWAYS looking for a bargain and my definition of a bargain is not just something cheap but something that does the job it’s intended for REALLY well….and that means Suave..I have been using Suave since high school and it has never let me down. There are soooo many fragrances, types, and sizes to choose from as well as all the different kinds of products, from shampoo, conditioner, styling aids, to body wash and deodorant. I’m hooked on this stuff not only because I can afford it, but because we all like it. My kids probably don’t know there are other brands out there..lol. This stuff keeps me looking like I don’t have a budget! Thank you so much for such great and affordable products.
