Product Review: Chloe Love Story Eau de Parfum

January 27, 2017 By in Beauty, Product Reviews Tags: , , , , , , , , , 27 Comments

For those who do not know I am a recovering perfume addict! I use to have at least 10 bottles of perfume at a time, but now I am happy with just 6ish. This Chloe Love Story Eau de Parfum was a gift I got myself just before new year. And yes I do buy myself gifts. Who doesn’t?

I love the Chloe brand. I have used the original Chloe perfume a few times. and I love the strong long-lasting scent. So when I spotted this gift set and took a sniff, I knew I had to have it.

Love Story by Chloe was launched in 2014. It is a very memorable fragrance with a lot of personality. I feel like I can take on the world whenever I have this perfume. Smelling good is good for business.

Here is the brief description –

Love Story’ is the expression of a free woman. Clare Waight Keller, Clémence Poesy, Mélanie Laurent, Inez Van Lamsweerde, Anne Flipo, each brought her vision to tell this new story. This parfum is a declaration of femininity and a proclamation of freedom.

 

  • Fragrance Family: Floral
  • Top Notes: Neroli, Cape gooseberry
  • Heart Notes: Orange blossom absolute, Stephanotis
  • Base Notes: Petitgrain, Cedarwood

  2. The perfume is very long-lasting. It stays on all day.

Product Review: A Massage Oil and a Cleansing Body Wash

December 4, 2016 By in Beauty, Product Reviews Tags: , , , , , , , , , , , , 23 Comments

I like a good massage. There is nothing better than having a full body massage. Trust me, it is the best feeling in the world, as long as you have it done with the right products and hands.

I try to take time off regularly to go for a good massage. With the nature of my work and my busy life, I see this regular treatments as a necessity not luxury. A good massage kind of puts my body back together.

This review post is all about an Aromotherapy Associates Restful and Tranquil Massage Oil and a Sanctuary Spa Cleansing Burst Body Wash.

I had the opportunity to review the skin Chemists Placenta Serum and Moisturiser some weeks ago, and I grabbed the opportunity with both hands. I am a huge fan of the skin Chemists brand. I used the skin Chemists Coldtox Activ+ Professional Facial Treatment some months ago, and it did good wonders to my skin.  So I was very excited when these landed on my doorstep.

I have used the skin Chemists Placenta Serum and Moisturiser for weeks now. Here are my thoughts on both products –

  4. They leave my skin feeling and looking silky smooth, and very radiant.
  5. They are suitable for every skin type, even sensitive skin.

CONS

  1. I found both products made my skin feel a little dry, so I always massaged a small amount of face oil after applying these.
