I was on a look out for a new handcream as the Crabtree & Evelyn one wasn’t up to my expectation >:(
It absorbs fast, smells great, but the moisturizing factor doesn’t last long -personal opinion!
I have got sweaty palms and thus, when my hands are not sweaty, it will be super dry (like an old lady’s, with all the wrinklies)
Chanced upon Soap&Glory while watching missglamorazzi ‘s ’11 most reached for items’! So as usual, I googled for more info about it :D
Soap & Glory is from the UK and they have lots of products.. from bodycare to skincare to makeups. All their products smell awesome! Girly, sweet and and a little fruity (avoid if you aint a fan of sweet scents). Their packagings are very interesting and attractive!
The brand is available on asos.com and there’s free international shipping. So I decided to visit Sephora to check out the pricing and try on the products. The prices in SG are surprisingly affordable, just a dollar or 2 more as compared to the website.
And so, I bought their…HANDFOOD
got the one in 125 mL (S$11) instead of the one in 50 mL (S$7). the 50 mL one will be more purse friendly..but was sold when the BA mentioned that the bigger tube goes out of stock really fast >.<
okay, its priced at £4.65 (~S$9.50) on asos.com. a difference of S$1.50 to save on the waiting time. heh!
really easy to spread, absorbs well and gives a satin-feel finishing. hope its lasting and can improve the wrinklies on my hands!
the next thing i bought….
A pretty pink box! :D like some girly toys’ box..
tadahhh~
i bought this set as
1) i am sold to the smell of their products!! (can’t stop smelly my hands after walk out of Sephora)
2) i am done with my current body scrub and hair mask ;)
3) its a good set to try out S&G products!
there’s always a list of ‘reasons’ when one wanna get something~
hair supply -a hair mask/treatment
unlike commercial hair conditioners/treatments which I had used previously, this hair treatment leaves a shea butter finishing giving a moisturized feel
not too bad but SG’s Sephora does not carry their hair products :(
Bodybutter – Righteous Butter (left) & Bodyscrub – Flakeaway (right)
First, the bodyscrub, similar to the hair treatment, it leaves a moisturized feeling after rinsing off the scrub. Its a salt scrub and I would consider the scrub salts as ‘medium rough’. It does the job well but one thing is…the storage -the tub :( I don’t like to dip my fingers in the tub to get the scrub out.
Next, the bodybutter. I personally feel that the body butter is too thick for SG’s humid climate and this butter is really thick. Good for dry skin! Its not greasy and absorbs easily!
Body Moisturising Mist -Girligo
Look how watery it is! and this is moisturising enough for me, absorbs quickly as well and the smell just stays on the entire day ^.^
Lastly, the shower gel -Clean On Me
Very moisturising and smells great! Will grab the huge bottle (500 mL, S$16) when I am done with this (and my other shower gels :x)
Soap & Glory is considered as an affordable brand and I am so glad that Sephora carries it :D Soon my bathroom will be of vintagey and pinkie feel~ XD
