Revlon Color Burst Lip Butter in Berry Smoothie
I did a review on this product in different colours -Peach Parfait and Tutti Frutti- here before, and now I'm excited to talk about it again as I got it in another colour! As I mentioned in my October Favourites post here, I totally fell in love with the colour Peach Parfait. It made me want to try out some other colours from the range and I picked up this colour as it looked pretty and I couldn't resist.
The colour is called Berry Smoothie which sounds so pretty.
The colour looks similar to Peach Parfait, when I saw it for the first time I thought I purchased Peach Parfait again by mistake.

When I compare like this, it's easier to see the difference. Peach Parfait is orangey pink and Berry Smoothie is reddish pink.
They both have gold shimmer and go on sheer. I really love both of them and in my opinion they are pretty wearable at work.

Berry Smoothie brightens up my whole face just as Peach Parfait does, but the big difference is that it gives this feminine and girlie finish. I love them both but recently I found myself choosing this colour over Peach Parfait often somehow. This is definitely my favourite colour of the range and I'll repurchase it when I run out of it.
Last of all, I'm so glad to have some new followers here! Thanks so much for following, and I'm very looking forward to chatting with you :) My Blogger has been acting weird and it still doesn't allow me to upload photos. Thanks Sammi for letting me know that I could use Flickr to upload them :)
Soap and Glory The Breakfast Scrub £9.50
This is the product I wanted to try out the most from Soap and Glory. When I heard Estee from essiebutton saying that the scent made her want to eat it because it smelled just like maple syrup, I thought I HAD TO try it out. How many beauty products smelling like maple syrup have you seen? But the problem was that Soap and Glory didn't deliver to Japan. So I got it from eBay as that was the only way to get their products! The postage was pretty expensive but I don't regret it -because I am totally in love with this product!
First of all, I love the jar. This round-shaped jar reminds me of a jar of fruits jam or chocolate spread or peanut butter that I liked when I was little. The body scrub I had been using before was mainly salt or sugar soaked into plant oils and essential oils, so it was pretty harsh on my skin. But look how different this body scrub is! The consistency is a little bit gloopy and thick but it spreads very well on my wet skin. It contains organic cupuacu bio scrubs, bananas, almond and honey extracts which exfoliate and nourish your skin at the same time.
I love this consistency because it's so smooth on my skin and easy to massage in. It leaves my skin soft and smooth, and smelling absolutely fantastic. I love love love this scent. It's kind of addictive that I literally want to use it every single day. It smells just like maple syrup like Estee said, and it's also got this subtle scent of banana which gives fruitiness to it. I usually don't like sweet scent in the shower but this one doesn't smell too strong at all and I just can't get enough of it.
I wonder why they don't make shower gel and body lotion in the same scent, although this product is loved so much!
Despite the sweet scent, the base of the product is not sugar. It's salt. Which means that whenever you exfoliate your skin with it you have to be careful not to rub it in too hard because usually salt is a little bit harder and harsher than sugar and takes time to melt.
It leaves a very subtle scent on my skin afterwards which is simply amazing. It makes me feel so happy! I would repurchase this product for sure, I would get 5 of them next time I go to England!!
I purchased The Righteous Butter in this smaller jar at the same time from eBay, but unfortunately I didn't like the scent :( It was too strong and too perfumey for me and I was very disappointed as I had high expectation for this product.
I am very interested in their makeup, skincare and haircare products as well. Have you tried any of their products? What is your favoruite? Let me know!
