Where my money went

Tuesday, March 2nd, 2010

As you can see on the image, that’s were my money went. I just had to go to The Body Shop to smell on their new Sweet Lemon products. So of course, the Sweet Lemon Whip Body Lotion had to be bought! While I was there I decided to join their club, so I got a discount, a sample of the Aloe Soothing Day Cream (it doesn’t smell good at all, it’s like a combination of exhaust gas and car oil!), a sample of the LOVE ETC fragrance, a free makeup consulting and a “buy 3 pay for 2″ deal. Not sure if it was the smartest thing to do since I hardly buy anything at TBS. Oh well.

I also got a package from Lush in the mail. I only have a tiny piece left of my all time favorite face cleanser Baby Face, so I ordered a new one. I also got Mask of Magnaminty cleansing mask, it smells lovely! (I’ve already tried it and I really like it!) At last I got a free sample of the Therapy massage bar. I’ve read that it’s really great for very dry skin, I’m looking forward to try it out!

Baby Face and Skin Drink

Sunday, March 15th, 2009

Last week I went with Maia to the nearest mall to do some shopping. Among the things I bought I got these from Lush (fresh handmade cosmetics – all natural ingredients), and I just have to review them:

- Baby Face: Natural butter bar for conveniently effective cleansing.
- Skin Drink: Rich moisturizer to refresh and rehydrate dry, parched skin.

I was amazed by the Baby Face cleanser (it melts when it comes in contact with your skin)! This is the first cleanser I have tried that doesn’t leave my face like a super dry tense desert. I use it everyday as a make-up remover. The smell is quite nice as well, fresh and clean.
Points: 5/5

I was a bit skeptic when I tried the Skin Drink moisturizer for the first time. I didn’t really like the smell of it, it doesn’t smell really bad but not good either. It takes a while for it to sink in since it is very rich and thick, but my face really needs it so I mainly use it as a night cream. But it does the job really well! It leaves soft and smooth skin. The only thing that bothers me is the smell, but you learn to live with it. You have to think about that it is all natural!
Points: 4/5

It was my first time trying out products from Lush but I got a really good impact so I’m definetly going to try out some of their other products in the future.
