December 5th, 2011 Adrienne Several months ago I gave you the scoop on Lush’s Gorilla Perfume. Well, this line of uniquely named scents are back with new fragrances!
Cocktail, 1000 Kisses and Love are three of Gorilla Perfumes new additions. And, like the other fragrances that make up this line, they are said to be “antidotes to boring mass marketed scents.”
Thanks to the lovely people at Lush, I had the chance to give a few new smells a try and share my thoughts with you.
August 10th, 2011 Adrienne It has been several months since I gave myself a mini facial. So, to get my at home spa treatment started, I decided to try a product I received while attending Pretty City’s Green & Gorgeous event.
One Love Organics’ Brand New Day Mircoderma Scrub & Masque
Sodium bicarbonate (baking soda), oryza sativa (rice), bran, whole dry milk powder, hydrolyzed silk (silk peptide powder), allantoin, ananas comosus (pineapple) fruit extract, natural fragrance
July 19th, 2011 Adrienne I struggled through my teenage years with unclear skin & unsightly breakouts. I often thought, “I can’t wait until I get older so my face will clear up.” Well, had I known that in my adulthood acne would still be an issue I would have thought differently.
My increase in age has definitely made me wiser but my skin clearer…not so much.
Over several years I have tried just about everything when it comes to cleansers, creams, & astringents. After jumping from product to product I have finally found a line, and method, that works for me.
June 17th, 2011 Adrienne I have used Carol’s Daughter products but have never given their body care a try. Overall, I have been happy with my results; so, I was expecting to feel the same about Goddess Flower Body Cleaning Cream & Shea Soufflé.
Well, before you move on to my review of each product, I have to say, I loved them both! Read on to learn why!
- GODDESS FLOWER SHEA SOUFFLE -
Consistency: Thick and creamy yet smooth. It applies easily and has a velvety texture.
May 19th, 2011 Adrienne “NouriShea is a natural and green beauty brand based on formulations with 100% USDA Certified Organic Shea Butter and natural essential oils.” I recently had the opportunity to try the lines Sandlwood Body Wash and Shea Body Creme. Check out my review of these products below!
Sandlewood Shea Body Wash
Normally, I don’t use body wash. Liquid soaps, or any soap other than Dove, leave my skin feeling dry. Since NouriShea’s Sandlewood Body Wash is made with 100% shea butter I decided to give it a try.
April 21st, 2011 Adrienne Several months ago Lush introduced Gorilla Perfume, a new line of scents. Of course, being made by Lush, these delicious smells are created from raw materials.
Some of the Gorilla Perfume scents include Karma, Orange Blossom, Imogen Rose, & Vanillary. My personal favorites are Lust, Breath of God, & Tuca Tuca.
Unlike some perfumes I have tried in the past these really do seem to last all day. The scents linger but are not overpowering.
Beyond the fact that Gorilla Perfume were created from parts of nature, I find the stories behind each scent fascinating.
April 5th, 2011 Adrienne While in New York the lovely people at Lush gifted me a few awesome products; amongst them was Lemony Flutter.
Lemony Flutter, a butter like cream, is said to “soften hard skin all over the body, especially the cuticles.” With such great claims I had to put it to the test!
The heels of my feet, while appearing smooth, are quite dry and sometimes even rough to the touch. So, for the past two weeks, morning & night, I have applied Lemony Flutter to my feet to see if it would actually “soften” my skin. I must say, my heels have never felt as soft as they do now!
