Lucy B. Tinted Lip Balm - Ruby Red Gloss Balm



















The gloss balm promises to hydrate, smooth and protect lips. The lip balm is enriched with natural shea butter, Australian flower essence and vitamin E. The lip balm has a delicate scent and goes on smoothly. It had a slight tacky feeling but it left my lips feeling soft and smooth. The creamy lip balm also left a soft tint on my lips.

Equitance Hydrating Brightening Cream














The lightweight cream is packed with linoleic acid, licorice, yogurt extracts, shea butter, shell ginger extract and cherry blossom extracts. The cream promises to lighten dark spots, brighten skin, promote radiance, soften, protect, soothe, and nourish skin. The cream goes on smoothly and was absorbed pretty quickly. My skin felt nourished and hydrated after applying the lotion. My  face did look brighter and radiant but it usually looks like that when I apply lotion on. Overall, I am not sure how effective this cream really is but I do like using it.

Pre De Provence Lait Soap







The triple milled soap is free of parabens, ethyl alcohol, phenoxyethanol and dea. It is enriched with quad milled shea butter and essential oils to soften skin and enrich the sense. The soap provided a rich and creamy softly scented lather. The bar was big and lasted me well over two months with twice a week use. A bit on the expensive side but in like with L’Occitane Shea Butter Extra Gentle Soap – Milk  pricing and has a similar scent. While, the L’Occitance is more expensive and smaller, I feel it provided my skin with more moisture than this soap did. But, I am still interested in trying the other scents they have available.

L'Occitane Shea Butter Extra Gentle Soap - Verbena











I always been a fan of L'Occitane and their soaps. I usually get the milk soap but I decided to try Verbena. The soft scented soap is composed of 100% vegetable base and enriched with shea butter and verbena. The soap provides a generous lather and imparts a delicate scent and lasting softness on skin. A bit pricey than say soap you can find at the drugstore but it's worth the occasional splurge.
