Another bane of my life apart from finding the perfect moisturizer is finding a good soap or a body wash which does not dry me up. LÓccitane almond shower oil seems to be a perfect choice for such a body wash but it is too pricey to be used daily. I was definitely intrigued by the British Rose range of body shop and wanted to try it for myself. And, then, the prices were reduced or sale was on or some such thing so I got these two body shop shower gels for myself among other … [Read more...] about The Body Shop Shower Gels – British Rose and Moringa

Forest Essentials Hydrating Sea Salt Crystal Rose Body Polisher
As mentioned in this interview, salt scrubs and sugar scrubs are the best for the body! The Forest Essentials Hydrating Sea Salt Crystal Rose Body Polisher is my first salt scrub. Before this, I had used one from the body shop which I loved a lot but it was more of a butter than a scrub. This one, however, is a scrub and a moisturizer as well because of the oil suspension. In fact, this is one of the easiest DIY's to do at home as well. So, you know what is the next DIY you are gonna … [Read more...] about Forest Essentials Hydrating Sea Salt Crystal Rose Body Polisher

The Body Shop Vitamin E Moisture Cream
Do you have a good day time moisturizer to recommend for me? I am looking for something without sun protection. Among the plethora I have tried in the last year itself from Kama Eladi Hydrating face cream to Just Herbs Indian Ginseng Elixir to Olay Regenerist Micro-Sculpting cream, I love Kama as a brand but their moisturizer felt too heavy for summer use, liked Just Herbs but not enough and Olay Regenerist is worth a second try. After all that, I got the body shop vitamin E moisture cream on a … [Read more...] about The Body Shop Vitamin E Moisture Cream
Teamonk Global Speciality Teas
Which is your favorite beverage? As for me, I am an all rounder. I like my milk tea, herbal teas, infusion teas, coffee, hot cocoa, juices and wines. But, if asked which one I love the most, nothing better than sharing a cup of tea with my mom. It is more of a ritual than a beverage. There is something so familiar and zen-like with that hot glass in my hands and I take my own sweet time to drink it off. So, when Teamonk (absolutely love the name) approached me for a review of their teas, I … [Read more...] about Teamonk Global Speciality Teas
