What I plan to test: Rusk Sensories Purify Cucurbita & Tea Tree Oil Deep Cleansing Shampoo

Why?: I was going to respond with “because I feel like it” but that’s rude. The packaging is usually what catches my eye and this case was no different. Rusk has a great line of products (so I hear) and I’ve always wanted to try them (but my pockets are empty at the moment). I was attracted to the packaging (I know, I have a problem) then a closer look revealed a sale sticker that FORCED me to pick it up and purchase it with the coins I had in my purse. (Oh yes, the price was that good.) I normally see the retail price for this bottle at $14.00 PLUS so this was either Divine Intervention or dumb luck because I needed to buy a clarifying shampoo and (cue the music and take a couple of seconds to do a country hoedown) this was a great find.
