The Body Shop in Apple Blossom and Vitamin E

I am finally on my last tub of the body butters that I hoarded from the The Body Shop last year and it's the Vitamin E Body Butter.  Mine is with the older packaging which I find better than the new one.  The pinkish body butter is way lighter than the olive or shea that I enjoy using it this summertime and even under the scorching sun I don't feel greasy with it.  It almost has the same scent and consistency with the sweet lemon variant.

The Apple Blossom Shower Gel and Body Lotion have just the greatest smell and I like that they somehow linger in my body.  It's like green apple and newly cut grass in one, it might be weird for others but the combo is just so light and refreshing.  The shower gel lathers up really well specially when use with a bath lily and the lotion is surprisingly not greasy and it sinks in like an essence but still leaving my outer skin smooth and moisturize.

I forgot how much I paid for these three but I know that I bought them at 40% off.  Great deal!

The Body Shop Vitamin E

Early this year, I managed to find a good deal with the The Body Shop and snatch a box of their Vitamin E range (not more than P1000) which I used last May.

I'll just be straightforward so tet's start with the wash and the brush.

The facial wash was really good.  It removes dirt and make-up (except waterproof) and it didn't irritate my skin plus the moisturising part is also good.  Smell is unexplainable, but just imagine the facial washes that you buy in groceries or drugstores (nothing really special with the smell).  It's light pink in color and the texture is not too thick but not too watery too.  My only complain is just it doesn't bubble much (I like bubbles) and that's where the brush enter.

I only used the brush in making bubbles when I'm using the Vitamin E facial wash because it's too harsh for my skin.  It's made of plastic...not just plastic but a hard plastic and it's hard to handle it too, so I totally hate it.

Next are the creams.  I expected them to be heavy on the face and The Body Shop didn't dissappoint me.  They are indeed heavy on the face.  What I hated the most though is that these two manged to give my face some irritating small bumps in just two days.  I stop for a week, the bumps are gone so I use them again and poof the bumps are back.  So after two weeks of testing, I gave up on using it on my face.  My body says otherwise though.  My body loves these too especially my back and legs.  The Vitamin E creams greatly helped in removing the scars from acne ang ingrown plus I like how they moisturized and nourished the driest part of my skin.

Day Cream and Night Cream

The night cream is heavier and thicker by the way while the day cream is more runnier and softer than the former.  Both are light pink in color and are heavy on the skin (but do please consider the weather in the Philippines).  Smell is torelable and nothing irritating.  Link can be found here and here.
