THE BODY SHOP: Body Moisturizers Review

I guess my love for strawberries will never die, i can eat em, gobble em, rub em all over myself and still not get enough of em :D
Owning a Strawberry Body Butter from THE BODY SHOP is a pleasure to me... ;)  (thumbs up to the exaggeration).

I Totally LOVE Scents like crazy; this particular body butter is scented and so it falls in my love category....( Love in bold tells the gravity of my love for it ;) )


Whats so good about this fruity creamy body butter?

  • It hydrates your skin very well even if you apply a little yet adequate amount.
  • It doesn't feel heavy like those thick creams. 
  • It doesn't give an oily effect to the skin
  • The scent lasts for a long time. ( Thumbs up to Sniffers, and it does smell like real strawberry seeds --> yumm..)
  • The product is against animal testing :D ( I'm an animal lover so it's one thing that i consider good about this product )
You can get a regular size for $20. Its worth the money you spend on it.


Comments:

The product is nice to use even as a night cream ( on your hands and feet or legs or where ever you want), you do not necessarily have to use it only when your skin is scraping off :P
I personally love the strawberry scented how ever there are other best sellers too... you can check them out HERE along with the pricing.

This product is not for face so please get a separate one for your face :D

MAYBELLINE New York: ClearSMOOTH Shine Free Face Powder Trial


MAYBELLINE FOR ASIAN SKIN

Maybelline is an American Makeup Brand, owned by L'OrĂ©al. They have a variety of Makeup products.
Recently I got a ClearSMOOTH Shine-Free Face powder for trial and it turned out pretty good. As i  
mentioned before my skin type is combination,  [T-Zone] and for a tropical weather in Malaysia, its so so so so important to keep a face powder with you all the time! Specially for people with oily skin ! ( It gets really annoying ) Anyway why i recommend this specific product is for a number of reasons that i'll share with you 
xD ..

WHY MAYBELLINE ClearSMOOTH???

  • It gives a totally natural look and is available in many shades for asian skin :D
  • It gives a good oil-control for a longer time ( my experience around 8 hours in tropical weather)
  • Its doesn't give a 'CAKEY' effect to your face
  • Feels light and natural...You can wear it over your sunblock and you won't even feel heavy
  • Lasts longer on the skin and gives a smooth and monotonous look ( I guarantee that ) :P
  • It comes with SPF 18++, 
  • Its Cheap-but-Decent choice.
What I did NOT like about this product is the puff, which is too thin and does not have the strip on the top to hold the puff in the right way. However this is still good for the price of the product itself :D (Let's be a little less demanding here ;) )


TIPS:

1. If you have dry skin, try to apply a face moisturizer prior to applying this product. Or you could even apply your liquid/cream/mousse foundation prior to it.

2. Be careful not to apply it under the eye because the skin is thin and dry around that area, so you wouldn't wanna make it more dry.
