Shampoo -Caudalie - Gentle Conditioning Shampoo

I really wanted to like this, and at first I did. The scent is delicious, and it did leave my hair feeling soft. However I noticed that my hair felt dirtier more quickly than usual, and I don't use products on my hair. Would definately not repurchase.

Cleansers -Ren - Rose Centifolia Facial Wash-Normal skin
rated 4 of 5
pixielu 8/4/2007 8:51:00 AM

This is very nice, because it is aloe based, it feels quite gel like, and doesn't really foam. It's a very gentle, and an effective cleser, but I just didn't love it enough to repurchase.

Lotions/ Creams -Dr. Hauschka - Rose Body Lotion
rated 3 of 5
pixielu 7/19/2007 9:29:00 AM

I wanted to like this more. I don't think the scent is as lovely as the weleda rose lotion, but it is suprisingly moisturising considering how runny the consistency is. It absorbs very quickly, so is probably best suited to the summer months, and feels quite cooling on application. Overall as it is quite expensive, I definately don't like it enough to repurchase.

Conditioner -Origins - Knot Free Conditioning Rinse
rated 3 of 5

This does leave my hair feeling very soft and knot free, but it also leaves it way too frizzy. My hair is noticable frizzier when I use this conditioner, so I wouldn't repurchase.

I thought this was totally average, the scent is just ok, nothing amazing, it's pretty gentle, which I like, but I wouldn't repurchase.

Lotions/ Creams -Aesop - Resurrection Aromatique Hand Balm
rated 4 of 5
pixielu 7/18/2007 8:07:00 AM

This is really good, but the packaging sucks. The metal tube split, so I couldn't really keep it in my handbag. Anyway it is really moisturisng and smells great, but I prefer the Korres handcream so wouldn't repurchase.

Scrubs -Caudalie - Sauvignon scrub
rated 2 of 5
pixielu 7/16/2007 7:45:00 AM

I really did not like this scrub, I have tried all 3 scrubs from the range, and I didn't like any of them. They feel really scrubby, but didn't leave my skin feeling particularly smooth or moisturised. I was totally unimpressed. IMO Ren scubs are a million times better.

rated 4 of 5

I love this, it's super moisturising, and leaves my skin very soft. UPDATE: Although I do love the scent, I find it a little overpowering, so probably will not repurchase.

This has a gorgeous fresh scent, not a fake lemon at all. however I much prefer the mint tea version so probably wouldnt repurchase.

Lotions/ Creams -Korres - Body Butter - Fig
rated 3 of 5
pixielu 7/1/2007 8:04:00 AM

I love the scent of fig, and this is a pretty true version. However I just don't find this moisturing enough, and also it takes quite a lot of massaging to fully absorb, Would not repurchase.

Gels/Soaps -Korres - Fig Shower Gel
rated 4 of 5
pixielu 7/1/2007 8:02:00 AM

I really like korres shower gels, and this one is also great. I think that the fig scent is pretty true and also quite strong, the scent really lingers in my bathroom. however I LOVE the mint tea shower gel, and prefer it to the fig.

Lotions/ Creams -Aesop - Citrus Rind Body Balm
rated 4 of 5
pixielu 6/15/2007 8:17:00 AM

This is expensive but it's also gorgeous. It's light yet very moisturising, and the scent is amazing, a true citrus scent. Delicious. UPDATE: I still think this is great, but I don't think it is quite moisturising enough for me in the winter, plus it is really expensive.

Cleansers -LUSH - Angels on Bare Skin
rated 3 of 5
pixielu 6/8/2007 10:22:00 AM

I love that this cleanser is completely natural, and it does a good job, and leaves my skin feeling very smooth. I did find it a bit messy, and also it was slightly drying, so would be no good for me in the winter. I probably wouldn't repurcahse, as there are other cleansers that I prefer, but this is definately worth trying, and I think deserves its good reviews. UPDATE: In the end this was far too drying for my skin, had to stop using it.

I love this! I use it before I put on my moisturiser, and also after shaving my legs, it really stops any irritation. Will definately repurchase.
