Soap & Glory - Scrub your nose in it review

Hello everyone,

a month ago I decided to go the Douglas store in the mall around the corner because I had a gift voucher and wanted to spend it. I must have looked like a million bucks that time, because usually sales ladies sneak around me as if I was just about to pop some products into my hand bag and run off - however this time one of them actually tried to give me advice. It was another extreme though because she just wouldn´t leave me alone for anything :-D

Oh well, I bought this little product in the end and so I
write something about it.
I have a mixed skin and in a constant fight against my T-Zone. I usually use a lot of Vichy products and Alverde to get in control, but Iam allways tempted to check on something new. The idea of this product is that you can use that cream just as a cleanser with a slight peeling effect OR as a mask. Both works very good. I clean my face with it every two days or so and it looks fantastic. I didn´t even get pimples during my critical days. It smells a bit peppermint-y and is also cool to the skin when used as a mask. Actually I like it enough to risk another visit to Douglas and sales ladies either sneaking or extreme advising :-D

Something else that I got me was Girligo, but Iam not that fond of it. I mean it is good when I´m lazy because it is a bodylotion that you just spray on, but it is by no means as good as the various bodybutters I use (I love the ones from Bodyshop and Alverde) plus it does not smell "candyesque" enough for me. When I use a shower gel or a bodylotion it HAS to smell like candy.

Choclates

Choclates for in and outside the body! I love choclate, but more the smell - I don´t eat choclate that often!

I´m a naughty girl, but I´m not dirty

...cause I bought nice handmade stuff from a swiss store that opened today. A ex of mine complained cause I smell like candy. Just proofs he wasn´t Mr. Right as John loves that I permanetly smell like a nut-cake. And I´ll totally rock the candy-bathing stuff in a few days when my delivery from www.ponyhuetchen.com arrives... And I´ll let you know wether I like it.

Bathing-cookie with coconut-milk and mango:


Bathing praline with honey and Vanilla



bathing cupcake with cherry



choclate/almond/brown sugar Peeling soap



Massagebutter with white choclate (now I just have to get John to use it)




And it´s not even that expensive. I bought some of the bathing stuff double so I can take several wonderfull baths and including shipping it was just like 34 Euros! For home-made quality stuff! NExt time I´ll try their eye-shadows, too.


I want Candy damdamdamdam...
