Tocca Cleopatra Sapone Soap

The sweet scented soap is packed with kukui nut oil, blue-green algae and vitamin E. The creamy soap is scented of grapefruit and cucumber.  The beautifully wrapped in hand-made decorative paper makes it a beautiful gift for hostess present. The bar of soap went on smoothly and felt like butter on my skin. It made my skin smooth, soft and delicately scented. Although, it was a treat to use, it is a bit pricey for $12 as the bar didn’t really last that long.

Julep Nail Polish - Cleopatra

When I saw this totally on trend black latex [doesn't really contain latex] creme nail polish, I knew I had to get it. Well, apart from it being on trendy cool and awesome looking...okay, that's the only reasons I got... but I don't regret this nail polish one bit. The nail polish dries matte but I noticed when I applied lotion [most notably Julep's Pomegranate Body Creme] the nail polished turned shiny. It reminds me a bit of a  "dull" leather that is usually "dry looking" and gets really shiny when... I guess you can say I moisturize some shiny into my nail.  The nail polish was a bit thick and the consistency reminds me a bit of melted plastic.  Like when I wiped the brush against the bottle and tried apply a thin layer, I got a ugly consistency like melted plastic and became really bumpy looking. I realized it looked better when I applied  a lot of  nail polish to get a nice even coverage. Also, make sure to clean your nails really well [or there is no chips in your base coat] before applying the nail polish otherwise you won't get an even coverage. I learned this the hard way, as my base coat was  chipped [but who can really tell when it is clear (!?!) and I only applied it 6 hours prior to using the nail polish] and the  nail polish was bumpy and uneven. Overall, one of my favorite "special effects" nail polish and it is perfect for Halloween.
