Unboxing Goodiebox March 2015

Hello beauty lovers!

     I am so excited; I just came from the post with this month’s Goodiebox. Now I know every country has this concept (you subscribe  monthly for cosmetics that would normally cost more if bought individually plus you get to be surprised, every month), Goodiebox is the Danish concept. J

Without further ado here is the content of my Goodiebox:

1.       The Body Shop Fuji Green Tea Body Butter (travel size, 50 DKK)

The Body Shop is one of my favorite brands because they use natural ingredients, don’t test on animals, are always engaged in social campaigns (they always do CSR).

This particularly body butter is a novelty, I don’t think TBS launched it yet soo.. hehe I get to be among the first to test itJ (me and the other Goodiebox subscribers).

The consistency is very light, more like the Moringa and Satsuma (for the TBS connoisseurs) and thus fitful for spring and summer. The scent is very delicate, I love it. Well done Goodiebox!

2.         Human+Kind Hand+Elbow+Foot Cream (50 DKK)

You can never go wrong with a hand cream, especially one that says “no chemicals, no colorants, no parabens, no perfume, no additives, no animal testing, dermatological tested, hypo allergenic, suitable for sensitive skins”.

The scent is a bit stronger than the TBS body butter above mentioned. I like it.

3.    Appeal4 nailpolish (69 DKK)

I don’t know about this one… has metallic nail polish come back? I don’t think so but I can make it work in combination with a matte one.

4.    Nivea Cream Smooth (travel size, 20 DKK)

Can’t wait to try it, I usually like Nivea products.

5.    Glo Minerals jeweled Eye Pencil (150 DKK)

This one looks interesting, has a creamy texture, can’t wait to try it.

6.    Baru dreamy chocolate hippo (29 DKK for 3)

Can you ever go wrong with chocolate?

7.    Teapigs Liquorice and Peppermint (77DKK for 15)

You lost me here, I cannot stand liquorice.

Conclusion:

All in all I am happy mostly because of the body butter, eye pencil and hand cream and if I am to do the math all these 3 products cost more than I paid so… I’m happy.

That’s all folks! One more month until the next Goodiebox!

Until the next review!

Too-daa-loo!

The Body Shop Chocomania range

Hello beauty lovers!

Sometimes the only thing that excites me when I think of taking a shower is the products that make the experience oh so pleasant. Today I’m presenting you my review of TBS Chocomania range:

     I’m going to start talking about the body butter which is in fact the product that convinced me to buy all the others. I had a small version of it from a heart shaped set that contained 2 travel size body butters and from the first use I fell terribly in love with this scent. I find it so yummy and at the same time seductive and comforting a scent that I know all chocolate lovers will adore.

      The consistency of the butter is perfect for a cold season since it is very thick and moisturizing, a heavy texture that I prefer using before going to bed. I fell it’s like a feast for the senses(it is the deluxe edition) and I cannot get enough, I had to buy the largest version when I finished it. 

As a plus these products are cruelty free since TBS don't test on animals, have no parabens and they are made of natural oils.Will be purchasing it again and again it’s a keeper! A big 10

The Body scrub= a total disappointment!

     I must admit I had very high hopes for this one. I had tried body scrubs from TBS before and liked it a lot but this one… omg… the smell is so plastic, nothing like the shower cream or the butter.

     Let’s talk about consistency... looks gooey, nothing wrong about that, also nothing feels wrong while using it.. it is only after when you rinse it off that gets very annoying…

Why? Well… after using a scrub you would expect your skin to be somehow dry, you did just exfoliated right? Well ladies and gents… this one leaves your skin OILY! Yes oily! How is this possible? I don’t know… I find it disturbing though. It gets a 5 from me… never to be purchase again.

The shower cream=a delicious pick!

The shower cream is just lovely, it has a nice consistency and it smells lovely, warm, sweet what everyone deserves to be spoiled with once in a while J

It gets a 10 from me although I admit it is a bit weird to use a brown colored shower cream.

Till the next one!

Too-daa-loo!
