VICTORIA SECRET PINK "MORE PINK" LOTION AND BODY MIST

Hi all,

After I picked up the last body mist and lotion from Victoria Secret Pink which you can read that review here VS PINK WARM & COZY I decided to go back and purchase one more mist and lotion prior to Christmas because I also had a coupon and had been eyeing one other scent which is MORE PINK.

I love the packaging for this particular lotion as the label is a super fun and girly iridescent pink and the pump is a pearly white colour as well. Little details like that please me lol:P

The scent of this is velvet vanilla and snowdrop orchid.

The way I would explain this particular scent is very simple slightly powdery, but a whole lot like PINK COTTON CANDY, it is totally scent-a-rific. Just watch out! you may smell so good a loved one may want to take a nibble.

The lotion is infused with Aloe, Oat and Grapeseed extract and giving your body a good dose of Vitamin C & E. There is also Aloe in the body mist too.

In Canada you get 2 products for $25, but I got $10 off my purchase.

Next time your at a VS PINK store be sure to check out their selection of body products

BATH AND BODY WORKS HOLIDAY FRAGRANCE MIST (TRAVEL SIZE)

Hello and welcome back,


Today on blog is just a quick look at the three travel sized body sprays I picked up at Bath & Body works. I always love the holiday collections and especially the packaging, even though some scents are repeats of the previous year.

This time around I opted for travel size sprays because I noticed that it is seldom I finish a whole full size. Also because I prefer variety, this is a better option for me and I feel they will be done by the end of winter and I will be ready to gear up for Spring.

The three scents I picked are Vanilla Bean Noel which is offered up yearly, Winter Candy Apple that also has been a B&B holiday staple and this years new release Merry Marshmallow Kiss

I have bought Vanilla Bean Noel every year in some way or another since it's debut and I always enjoy its return at this time of year. Winter Candy Apple is the type of scent I sort of have to be in the mood for as I find at times it can be a little to sweet for my senses.

Now regarding this new scent Merry Marshmallow Kiss, I do like it, but I don't find it reminds me anything of marshmallow and the scent of pear over rides it. It smells like a scent B&B already had, but under a different name. I would say this is probably my least favorite of the three, all though I love the blue packaging of this one best.

Oh! did I also mention these make super cute stocking stuffers especially if you add the bow like the above picture. I love doing festive pictures, however it then makes me want to shop more ;p

You get 88ml for $6 (REGULAR PRICE)

(plus make sure in Canada to use your receipt coupon for a deeper discount)

LET ME KNOW IN THE COMMENTS WHICH HOLIDAY SCENT YOU LOOK FORWARD TO EACH YEAR OR IF ANY NEW ONES HAVE CAUGHT YOUR INTEREST.

VICTORIA SECRET PINK WARM & COZY LOTION AND BODY MIST

So one of the first things I made a bee line to buy after "No Buy November" is from Victoria Secret Pink which is from their bath and body collection. I had read and seen several reviews on this scent and I am so glad I went and checked it out. The scent is WARM & COZY. I am so in love with this scent, but I am pretty sure that at one point La Senza carried the exact same scent which I also owned at one time. As you all know VS and La Senza  are owned under the same brand, so it was probably just a matter of a small reformulation and repackaging. No less I love the scent and it is truly a warm and cozy feeling due in part to the toasted vanilla balanced beautifully with the gentle scent of peony.

 

The one thing that is a draw back for me personally is that you only get 2 items for $25 CAD, where as you can go to bath and body and walk away with 4 items, use the their coupons and pay the same amount. I don't really find VS Pink's quality really any better either. I do like that they have different scents compared to B&B.

Again though for those that don't realize it VS and B&B are owned under the same umbrella of brands through Limited Brands, which also owns Henri Bendel, C.O. Bigelow, White Barn Candle Co. that supplies B&B, La senza, along with a few others.

That's why you may notice a similar feel between some of the stores and products.

 

The other thing I really like about the VS Pink lotion is the size, standing in at 500ml/16.9 fl oz. versus B&B which only offers about 236ml bottles. I really load on the lotion all over, so to me the more the better. Also it's important to wear lotion not only to soften skin, but to layer it with the mist as it retains the scent longer on your body.

 

I also picked up this cool looking gunmetal finish iphone5 case. I put it on as soon as I paid and I do notice it gets scratched very easily, but what can I expect! VS or not it is only plastic:/

 

 

Well that concludes this review on Victoria Secret Pink and join me again for another review here at Makeup'Asylum:)

ITS TIME TO SMELL SEXY PLAYBOY "PLAY IT SPICY" BODY SPRAY

Hi everyone,

       Today lets take a look at the Playboy body mist  called PLAY IT SPICY. I find lately I have been wanting fragrance that smells a little warmer, more mature and less gourmand then I normally gravitate to. So I picked up this body spray on a whim because it was on clearance for $2.

This is a very dark sexy scent that leads with bold impact these are the fragrance notes

Top Notes: Pomegranate, Bellini Cocktail and Pink Berries

Heart Notes: Tiger Lily, Passionflower and Heliotrope

Base Notes: Amber, Sandalwood and Vanilla Essence

I definitely can smell a mix of the sweet berries melding with the warmth of the sandalwood and the vanilla. I find it also upon first spray has a soapy clean scent to it, but takes on a deep sensual vibe during dry down.

Overall I am happy with this purchase and it was a total bargain for 240ml.

The scent lasts for a few hours before fading out on my skin, it catches well on the breeze outside.

There are 5 other scents in this line, some I have smelt and not been crazy about because they tend to lean to much to the floral and suckle sweet side, which does not appeal to me at all. However I am interested in trying out the newest offering called "SUPER PLAYBOY".

Also who wouldn't feel sexy spritzing on a scent from a bottle adorned with the infamous bunny head and bow tie.

You can purchase the body sprays at most drug stores and Walmart in Canada.
