It’s flip flop season: the season when we show off our legs and feet {whether we like it or not}. With silky legs on the task list, I gathered up a group of my girlfriends for some snacks, some girl talk, and an evening of pretty legs pampering.
A party isn’t a party without a sweet or savory spread of snacks and drinks, right?
I set out a selection of Italian soda …
… served in goblets …
… a pitcher of citrus water {to add to the spa feel of the night} …
… and an assortment of cheese, crackers, grapes, nuts, dried fruit, and chocolate almonds …
… all laid out in a rustic fashion.
Before the party, I made a stop at Target and bought a pile of fun items {and judging by the cleared-out endcap, I’m not the only one who thought these products would be perfect for summer}.
In keeping with the flip flop theme for the party, I set out a basket of flip flops in bright summer colors …
… and goody bags so my guests could continue the pampering after the party.
Each of my friends went home with Skintimate Skin Therapy Sensitive Skin Shave Gel, Sally Hansen Xtreme Wear Nail Color, and a foot care tool.
In addition to the favors in the goody bags, I set out a bucket of other summer leg care items: more Skintimate Skin Therapy Sensitive Skin Shave Gel, a Schick Hydro Silk Sensitive Care razor, Banana Boat CoolZone Clear Spray Sunscreen, Banana Boat Protect & Hydrate Sunscreen Lotion, Hawaiian Tropic Silk Hydration Lotion Sunscreen, and Sally Hansen Inst-Dri Nail Color.
We had a great time giving our legs and feet a taste of summer with the hydrating sunscreens {I love that sunscreen can moisturize at the same time it’s protecting my skin, giving me silky legs for summer!}.
The Banana Boat CoolZone Clear Spray Sunscreen was a hit with everyone. I had never tried it before and the cooling effect is fabulous … especially in our Texas heat! It’ll now be a regular product in our sunscreen basket.
The toenails got some color …
… and we all got ready for a summer of flip flops, shorts, and skirts {with a pile of laughs thrown in for good measure}.

That’s a wonderful party there! I love the freebies and oh, those splashes of pink and tangerine is so fabulous! That can be a great color-motif for my daughter’s 18th birthday. 🙂 Of all the products featured, I have already tried the Hawaiian Tropic. I love its scent and how light it is to your skin. Great product!
