Stay Fresh Body Sparkling Mist—A Titi Kamal x Althea Collaboration

Hello loves!

For the past few months, I've been discovering new products brought to us by Althea. As one of the Althea Angels, I'm able to try the Althea Exclusives and so far, I'm loving all of them.

Althea keeps innovating their collection and introducing different skincare products. Now, they are expanding their selection with makeup and fragrance. They have also partnered with other shows and celebrities to create fresh and exciting products. Today, I'll share with you a collaboration by Althea with one of the stars from Indonesia...

Pevonia Botanica Tropical De-Aging Mist

Hello dears!

More than a month ago, I attended Wacoal's Perfect Fit Party and one part of the event was a presentation by a Swiss skincare brand, Pevonia. I've heard and read much about this brand but haven't had the opportunity to try any of their products because, well, it is quite pricey. But how lucky was I that I was privileged enough to take home one of their products from the said event!

I got the Pevonia Botanica Tropical De-Aging Mist.

This 200ml bottle is Php 3,640.00.

Here's a press release I received so we have some idea on its claims and what it can do for our skin:

Pevonia introduces ‘Ligne Tropicale’ the first ever de-aging body line which is totally paraben free!

Synergizing the latest science with advanced manufacturing technologies and nature’s purest elements, the Pevonia De-Aging Tropical Body Line delivers a groundbreaking organic phyto-extracts de-aging therapy for optimal rejuvenation! Skin is restored with a radiant, healthy and youthful glow.

The range is scientifically proven to:

• Counteract Aging
• Tighten & Firm
• Refine & Smooth
• Brighten
• Even Discoloration
• Hydrate
• Relieve Stress

Comprising of three home care products; De-Aging Saltmousse, De-Aging Body Balm and De-Aging Mist and a unique in-spa de-aging tropical exfoliation, the line delivers an unparalleled sensory experience while delivering truly outstanding results.

Pevonia Tropical De-Aging Mist

Awaken and replenish your skin with a refreshing boost of hydration any time of day or during outdoor activities. Pevonia’s De-Aging Tropical Mist offers a precise blend of tropical fruits including Pomegranate, combined with Hyaluronic Acid, Aloe, Chamomile, Panthenol, Calendula, and other natural ingredients. Spray all over skin as desired. Ideal for all skin types.

The range is available in two delicious flavours comprising of:

Papaya/Pineapple smoothes wrinkles and brightens the skin tone

Mango/Passion Fruit tightens and firms the skin, brightens the skin tone  

So the product is very easy to use—just spray and spread. A small amount goes a long way. It smells incredibly fruity good too but it's not that long-lasting.

First time I sprayed it on my skin, I can instantly feel how soft it became. And what made me love it more is unlike lotions and body oils, this product gets absorbed by the skin so quickly. I never liked the sticky feeling lotions and body butters give me but this, on the other hand, feels so light which made me love it even more.

I use this everyday after I shower and before I go to bed. I bring it along with me too incase I'll be needing extra moisturization. This product is just so handy and so effective in making my skin feel soft and smooth, especially my legs, that I'll probably wouldn't mind getting another bottle even if it's a bit more expensive that the products I usually use. It's just worth it! But if ever I get extra dough this Christmas, I might consider trying the other products from the line too. :P

Enjoy the benefits of Pevonia’s De-aging Tropical Line as a body treatment in select spas. Pevonia’s Ligne Tropicale is available in selected spas nationally.

The Healing Garden RainWater Body Mists

Hello everyone!

Do you like floral scents?

Because I'm a sucker for mostly anything flowery! 

I LOVE floral scents, drawing flower portraits, floral prints on clothes, drink jasmine tea... heck, I even like eating sampaguita ice cream! Haha!

So I was excited when I opened a package sent to me by Comfort Scent Online.
If you're not familiar of Comfort Scents yet, it's actually one of the generous sponsors of our 2nd birthday giveaway! :)

Inside the package were these 2 body mists along with the items Comfort Scents sponsored for our giveaway.

The scents of the body mists we received were Uplifting Jasmine and Passionate Rose.
I took the Uplifting Jasmine while Liz got the Passionate Rose.

Liz and I weren't familiar with the brand The Healing Garden and it's our first time to try them out. We tried googling it and we found the website but it's still under development.
Here's what it says about the brand:

"In the healing garden, you'll discover the finest botanical and organic bath and body care collections that nature and science ever created. They not only nourish your skin, they soothe your soul. Life blooms in the healing garden."

Our initial reaction upon seeing the bottle is that it's unique. The shape of the bottle isn't similar to any of the body mists or other fragrances we've seen before. It's also not bulky so it's easy to carry around in your bag. The colors and choice of font on the labels are cute too!

The Healing Garden RainWater Body Mist in Passionate Rose

Passionate Rose is a bit strong and warm the first time you smell it. Probably because it's labeled 'Passionate' and 'Romance'. Rawr.

But after a while you will smell the rosy scent.

The Healing Garden RainWater Body Mist in Uplifting Jasmine

On the other hand, Uplifting Jasmine has a cooler and milder scent. I personally prefer this one because it's light, clean and soothing to my senses. I usually spray this after I shower.

The smell of the body mists don't really last long. But take note that these are just body mists and not perfume so they aren't really formulated to have the same lasting power although I think my Bath & Body Works Body Mists still has a longer staying power. Probably the longest time it remained on me is around 2 hours in an air conditioned room. :P

What I like about these scents are they are quite subtle compared to perfumes so it's quite nice to use it for everyday just so you can pamper your senses by smelling flowery and sweet.

If you're interested to try these for yourself, Comfort Scents Online is actually selling it in a pack of 3 scents.

 1 Travel Pack contains 3 Body Mists and costs Php275.00 only!

It's quite affordable, don't you think?
I'm quite intrigued on how the Tender Lavender smells like. My mom likes how Lavender smells so she'd probably like this. I wonder if they also have Sweet Pea...

That's it for my thoughts on The Healing Garden RainWater Body Mists.
They are actually a nice addition to my small collection of floral scents. I probably have almost a dozen bottles, some are even unused. Haha! Still, I don't want to give 'em away because they smell so nice and you know how much I love flowers! ♥

Have you tried any The Healing Garden RainWater Body Mists? What about their other products? Do you like floral scents too?


Cheers!

New Product : The Body Shop Body Mist

 Hello, hello! :D

This month, The Body Shop has been introducing to us some of their newest products.

I've already posted about their beautifying oils which I totally love! ♥

And for today, the product that I'd like to share with you are their:

 THE BODY SHOP BODY MISTS

 These babies were just out a few days ago actually. June 14 if I remember correctly.

It's available in various scents:

 From left to right: Moringa, Strawberry, Pink Grapefruit, Shea, Coconut, Vanilla, Satsuma and Mango

Though these new items were only out 5 days ago, I was able to take one home weeks ago from The Body Shop event I attended. Yayy! I was one of the first few people in the country to try it out! I feel special. Shucks. ♥

 I got the vanilla one. My favorite! ♥

 So here are some information about the Body Mists in Vanilla which I got from the press kits provided during the event:

VANILLA BODY MIST

                                                           

Our Vanilla takes on a fresh new form. Spray this light scented body mist all over your body for a gentle burst of warm vanilla. It’s irresistible.

=Warm vanilla fragrance

=Light and fresh

=Use all over body

=Contains vanilla extract

How to use

Spritz it on after bathing or showering. Top up throughout the day.

STAR INGREDIENTS

Community Fair Trade ORGANIC alcohol

VANILLA EXTRACT

 Phew... quite long huh? But as you can see with the description, the body mists contain ingredients that they got from their community fair trade. Curious on what it is? Read my blog post about it here.

The best thing about using The Body Shop products is that you get to support their projects to help communities and our Mother Earth because they make their products from natural ingredients and are cruelty-free.

You look good, feel good and do good!

 These body mists sure do smell nice! I got to smell each of these bottles during the event too. My second favorite is Moringa and third is probably Shea.

I use these a lot! After I shower, whenever I go out (I even bring this along), and even before going to bed. I'm addicted to vanilla, you see! ♥

Although I love how it smells, staying power is not so... powerful. Haha!

Scent can probably last up to an hour or two. Then I'll just have to spray again. It isn't perfume so I guess it doesn't have to be strong but I just prefer those that I can smell for a long period of time. :P

Still a favorite fragrance from The Body Shop is their White Musk Libertine. ♥

Stays all day on me! Haha!

Oh and BTW,

I have mentioned about the new look of one of The Body Shop's best-sellers, their Body Butters!

Here's a poster where you can check the complete collection:

Here's some info from the press kits:

Celebrate our Style

Introducing...

Our New Look Body Butter

IN 13  DIFFERENT FRAGRANCES, OUR BODY  BUTTERS  ARE AMONG OUR MOST FAMOUS PRODUCTS, WITH ONE TUB OF BODY BUTTER SELLING EVERY TWO SECONDS. AND NOW, THEY’RE GETTING A  BRAND NEW LOOK. WHAT ’S SO DIFFERENT ABOUT THE NEW DESIGN?

• Gorgeous photography focusing on a single natural ingredient

• Photography of the natural ingredients used a magnifying glass to highlight their beauty

• Logo surrounding the ingredient “protects” the natural ingredient within, symbolising our Protect the Planet ethos

• 100% recyclable packaging

 I do like the new packaging because it looks more youthful and simple. 

Can't remember what it used to look like?

 Here's 4 of the old design.

So which one do you like more?

Have you tried the any of The Body Shop Body Mists yet?

Which one is your favorite?

Cheers!
