Review: L'occitane Olive Face Scrub Mud

I'm back with review. Now it's from L'occitane. This is an already well known brand.
So, I got this item from my sister a while ago so it's not a new item but I'm kinda liking it.
Scrub is a must have for me, it's a routine for 2-3 times a week to maintain healthy and supple skin. Especially when you have dull or dry skin like me, it's a must to exfoliate at least weekly.
If you don't like the harsh particles, go with water based peeling, will review about it later.



Packaging

The box is all paper but feels like expensive go green paper. Hard to describe. The gold printing is pretty and classy. The bottle is made from plastic with gold cap. It feels light. Their concept is like Body Shop with all go green packaging.


Description is printed on the back box. It's very tempting that said you can get soft and healthy glowing face.


Explanation about olive as it is the main ingredient for this product. Olive is really good for the skin and the body inside out. I do put olive oil at my bathroom to mix it with scrub or soap sometimes. It helps to moist the skin a lot.


Same printing with the one on the box. I love how L'occitane gives an illustration on their product.


There is a seal for the scrub, which can be replaced after using it so it will still look like new.
The seal is made from thick paper and glossy so it won't torn away easily.



It's Muddy!

Yeah, as you see it's a mud scrub so the texture is like green mud or clay with yellow granules, which is crushed olive kernels which is good for the skin.
It contains a lot of product because I only need a small amount to exfoliate my whole face.


It has thick consistency and not easily melts away like other scrub so I need to massage my face when using it. I love it. It doesn't dry my skin at all, it feels really moist after using it.


Pros:
+ Moisturizing
+ Ease dull skin, really good for dry skin
+ Thick consistency so just need a small amount

Cons:
- Not for people who hates mud scrub which will leave residue after cleansing

Overall:
People with dry and dull skin will love it. For oily face, I'm not really sure, if you're looking for moisturizing scrub this will be good. If you like 'clean' feel after, it's not it. But for me, I love it because it's really hard to find exfoliator which moisturizing like this.

  2. Now that is really a must buy product! I have to try some time! Especially that I am already eyeing on some L'occitane product few days ago! I know they may not be the easiest one to buy because of the price we have that here in philippines - but I've very tempted to try this one out!

Review: IOPE Air Cushion Sunblock EX No.22 Ice Shimmer Beige

IOPE is a brand from Amore Pacific. The medium high collection similar with Laneige and Mamonde. The skin care range is more for older people, while Laneige and Mamonde are for younger people. This is my first IOPE. It is really best selling, sold 1 every 30 seconds in the world. I also heard that it is featured in many magazines, got award, etc... I am curious with this air cushion thing. and it is really good to know there is a compact sunblock with high SPF (it's 50!!). Since it is superrrr hot here in Bali, where I live, I don't like wearing cream sunblock. *Sorry for blurry picture* The box is thick because it contains the compact sunblock + FREE REFILL... Love it the free one. You also get the small booklet for product description inside. Description It is 4 in 1 function: brightening, UV protection, make up, cooling. The cooling effect is new to me, I never have cooling effect product before. Really all in ...

News: Etude House Magic Any Cushion (Any Cushion + Choux Base???)

Quick News from Etude House! Etude Hose, why are you keep making me broke? Maybe for some people. it's really true. They are now going on their spring collection as the new lips fit already launched. A few days ago, there is something new and it's so exciting and colorful.  Etude House Any Cushion has been a hit and it's best selling item. Do you remember the last year Sweet Recipe collection, I reviewed the   Etude House Sweet Recipe Baby Choux Base #2 Berry . And now they are combining both of them and creating a new Etude House Magic Any Cushion. I love how they look. They're just like macaroons to me! Kyaa... There are 3 colors just like the Baby Choux Base, Peach, Mint and Berry. It claims that the cushion can magically tone up the skin. So if you have redness, you can choose the mint one. If you have pale skin like me, berry is the perfect one, and peach can also whiten your skin tone. I love this idea because it is more practical becaus...

Review: Eveline Glicerini Hand and Nail Cream Bio Olive + Karite Butter

Back then, my mom bought me this hand cream at Sasa Hongkong. At first, I was sceptical about this because I've never heard about it before,  Eveline is a pretty name for a girl but never heard about them on cosmetics or so. It's a brand from Poland that has been sold worldwide. I love Sasa because they sell a lot of products, so many brands that I don't know and they are affordable. I hope Sasa will open in Indonesia, someday *dreaming*. After searching and browsing, I'm surprised that they have so many products for make up and care (face, ,body, hair). Such a lot of products. And I've found this on their web, the description of the hand cream and what's in it. GLYCERINE CONCENTRATED HAND AND NAIL CREAM DEEPLY NOURISHING + REGENERATING BIO OLIVE + KARITE BUTTER strengthens nails  48h perfectly absorbing formula NATURAL ACTIVE INGREDIENTS Glycerine hand cream ensures deep nourishment and intense regeneration. Makes even very damaged and dehydrate...
