BBW Secret Wonderland Creamy Body Wash

 I love the sweet intoxicating scent of this creamy body wash and the soft lingering scent was just as delectable. It gives off a generous lather and leaves my skin silky smooth and soft. The hydrating body wash is packed with milk proteins, acai berry, and soybean and rice bran oil.  This is one of my favorite scent from Bath and Body Works.

As an avid user of Bliss products, I love their facial products the best. The fabulous foaming face wash is exactly like its namesake, fabulous. It leaves my skin soft, smooth and hydrated with the exfoliating beads embedded in the creamy gel formula. I have not personally been to their spa but after washing my face with this product my skin feels pampered.  I love the soft fresh scent thanks to the botanical extracts. It makes me feel so calm and relaxed. It one of the few beauty products in my beauty regime that I love using on a daily basis regardless of how tired I am.

C.O. Bigelow Mentha Lip Tint - Magneta Mint






I love C.O. Bigelow’s Mentha lip gloss. The sparkly subtle red tint goes on thick but it is not sticky. I love how my breath gets minty when I apply it on my lips. The gloss is long lasting and it leaves my lips feeling soft.

TheBalm - Stainaic




I love the premise of this multi-use stain. The idea of having one product doing multiple things and make not only my life easier but I get to carry less is absolutely amusing. I was a bit disenchanted when this product didn’t live up to my expectations.  The consistency was a bit watery which is a bit understandable since it would make it easier to blend on both the cheeks and lips. The color was very sheer and hardly noticeable on my lips, while being blatantly looks painted on and harsh on my cheeks.  The blush didn’t look real and was very difficult to blend. The stain itself was long lasting. Overall, I don’t think I will use this on my cheeks and use this as a base on my lips.

Sex in the City- Kiss Perfumed Shower Gel



I finally came across the second part of the gift set. The shower gel turned out to be more promising than the perfumed body lotion counterpart. While it still had the same scent as the body lotion and perfume; the body gel’s scent was a lighter and not as overpowering.  The gel provided a good amount of lather and left a soft lingering scent. Overall, this was the best part of the Sex in the City gift set.

Victoria Secrets Pink Vanilla & Shea Butter Body Lotion






I came across this body lotion while canvassing the outlet mall. The creamy body lotion has a nice fresh scent. Even though the scent is vanilla and shea butter, I couldn’t smell any of the vanilla.  The non-greasy formula does an average job of keeping my skin moisturized. I used to keep bottle on my desk but it didn’t keep my hands from looking scaly and dry but my hands smelled great. I know why this was 85% off at Victoria Secret.
