Wow, this is what a covet : Jill Stuart Blusher Set... it comes in an artistic and simply stunning casing. It looks like something from a jewellery line instead. But as far as i know, Jill Stuart brand is not carried here, and this blusher set costs a bomb. So i'll dream on.....haha...
This is actually an organic body cream by Bamford, which i'm trying out in the office as part of my research for a project. The body cream is pretty rich in its texture, and it is velvety and simply melts into your skin. Quite good, given that it is green and organic and all that, but i did spot many non-environmental friendly ingredients in the ingredient list ( e.g. ethoxylated products), so now i tend to get a little apprehensive by the 'natural' claim.
Crabtree and Evelyn advertises their handcreams by claiming that they are designed to be used by gardeners, whose hands are always exposed to harsh elements. This Citron : Honey & Coriander hand remedy is new in their hand cream line and was one of the Christmas presents i received last year. Haven't had the chance to use it, but given the previous ones i've used by the brand, it should pass the test.
I've recently changed to a new cleanser, because my skin gets irritated and red easily. Plantidote Mega Mushroom Face Cleanser by Origins is very mild on the skin and removes residues and make-up in a jiffy. Personally, i thought the mushroom smell was a put-off though, but i can live with that.
I'm still midway through my Clinique Happy perfume, but after some time, i realised that floral tones still suit me more. Happy was more of a citrus fragrance, while my new L'Eau D'Issey consists of a wide range of floral scents including lotus, cyclamen, freesia, carnations, white lilies with hints of amberseed and musk. However, i think the strongest smell among all is the lily, which i love!
Recently i've purchased several new facial masks by Nature Republic, a Korean company endorsed by superstar Rain. I tried several different ones. There are many things i don't like about their masks, the essence of the masks have curdled up, not sure if it's supposed to be like that. When i open the masks, instead of a moist masks, what i get are like gel curdling up all over the sheet. Also, it's difficult to unfold the facial masks, the way they are folded is not user-friendly. Not recommended by me. I think Skinfood and The Face Shop is a much better bet for facial masks.
