  • REVIEW: The Body Shop COCONUT and SHEA shower creams

    REVIEW: The Body Shop COCONUT and SHEA shower creams

    I was very excited to receive as a gift these 2 cute little shower creams: The Body Shop Coconut Shower Cream and The Body Shop Shea Shower Cream. I tried each one of them once and I decided to write a review. My general opinion was that they are good products, more hydrating than regular shower gels, but a little bit too pricey for what they have to offer.

    I will write below my impressions about each one of these shower creams.

    The Body Shop -Shea Bath & Shower Cream

    The scent is a little bit masculine. It is very beautiful. I couldn’t say it is my all time favorite scent, but I definitely like it.

    What I really like about it is that its parfume lasts a few hours. I spend a lot of time sitting in front of the computer and I like to smell my skin from time to time to feel this really nice scent.

    The Body Shop Shea Bath & Shower Cream is also the most hydrating one, but, unfortunately, it is not as hydrating as I wished it was. I still need some hydrating body cream after shower, but the skin feels definitely more hydrated than it feels after using other shower gels / creams.

    The Body Shop – Coconut Bath & Shower Cream

    This one is very cute. It feels as if I was in Bora Bora. The downside is that it is not as hydrating as the Shea shower cream and the scent doesn’t last. Otherwise, its perfume is very funny, it really smells like coconuts. In fact, it smells so good, that if I would pour this shower cream into a fancy glass and put a tiny colorful umbrella, I bet someone would try to drink it. LOL

    Will I repurchase?

    Since my skin tends to be very dry, I can’t use a lot of shower gels, that otherwise are very nice. The Body Shop has only 3 shower creams, that are obviously more hydrating than the gels, and the one that I didn’t try yet is the Almond Milk & Honey Soothing & Caring Shower Cream.

    I will definitely repurchase some of these shower creams, although I would like to try a different aroma, probably the Almond one.

    P.S. I really like the package’s design. I like how the logo is placed on the main ingredient’s photo. Very nice.

  • REVIEW: Sabon Delicate Jasmine Body Gel Polisher

    REVIEW: Sabon Delicate Jasmine Body Gel Polisher

    I’ve received the Sabon Delicate Jasmine Body Gel Polisher as a gift from a good friend. It is basically an exfoliating shower gel and it costs approximately $19.00. I believe paying 19 dollars for a shower gel is A LOT and the gel should do wonders at this price.

    I’ve taken this photo when I had already used a third of the bottle, but now, at the moment of writing the article, the bottle is empty.

    It was an excellent product, it smelled nice (literally “delicate”) and left the skin soft and moderately hydrated.

    What I liked most about it was the scrub and the consistency of the gel. The scrub contains hard grains, divided in very small pieces, that really “polish” your body in a very enjoyable way.

    Although I did like the Sabon Delicate Jasmine Body Gel Polisher, I wouldn’t repurchase it. It is too expensive for not being more “bio”…

  • What Santa Paws Brought Me and My Cat For Christmas

    What Santa Paws Brought Me and My Cat For Christmas

    Hi, everyone! A few days ago I was visited by Santa Paws! Me and my cat Midi received very cute gifts. I got a Yves Rocher Festive Shower Gel and Midi got a Whiskas treat. Please notice my cute little Christmas tree with the gifts 🙂 .

    The Yves Rocher Festive Shower Gel smells really nice. It is part of the Yves Rocher Christmas Collection with “Marvelous Berries”. I’ve used it with a big, fluffy massage sponge and it made tons of foam, which I liked a lot. There are 2 things I like most about this product:

    • It has 98% natural ingredients;
    • Its cute, Christmassy package.

    Midi hasn’t eaten his gift yet, but I am sure he will love it!

    Until Midi eats his gift from Santa Paws, this nosy lemur wants to see what we got for Christmas.

    It may seem he is trying to steal Midi’s gift, but in fact he is just checking. He is a really nice guy, and so is Santa Paws who got us these lovely presents!
