Review : The Skin Shop Milk & Honey Body Cream
7:04:00 PM
This review's written in January 2013 but i only gotten to upload it today (too many blogging material LOL).
Hey HOOO!
Do I sound hyper? Sorry :D. Actually my face’s
all swollen from too much crying. No no don’t worry, I am not in any kind of
trouble :p, I just finished watching The Impossible (yes it’s 2012’s movie but
it’s just showing in January 2013 in Indonesia, nothing new. LOL. Only huge
blockbusters would show on time here, sometimes even faster than any other
parts or the world, believe it or not), have you watched it? It’s a movie
starring Naomi Watts and Ewan McGregor, telling a family’s true story while
vacationing in Khao Lak, Thailand in 2004 and the tsunami hits. It was really
really good (and superb acting by both stars and the three boys who played
their kids) and really really sad that I kept on crying throughout the movie
*note : I cried gracefully. LOLOL. Whateva the eff that means. For me it means
my blush on were still intact when I emerged :p*.
If you haven't seen it, you should!!! It's super good. I doubt it's still showing in any cinemas (oh, except if you live somewhere that shows last year's movies, that happens i know!!!), it's totally worth renting or buying the DVD of. If you don't cry watching it, you have no heart!!!! LOLOL, kidding.
Anyway, enough ramblings! I
actually want to review another body care product today. With my penchant in
trying different products every time, I will be flooding you with reviews.
Especially body cares because I tend to run out of them the most (thanks to my
hunny’s sucky skin so I need to apply a LOT of lotions on him everyday LOL).
Today I’m gonna review The Skin
Food’s Milk & Honey Body Cream :
Picture taken from Google because i can never produce such a nice photo with my pocket camera hehe |
I didn’t actually purchase this
myself, my mum bought a bunch of TSF’s shower and body care products and she
didn’t use somehow (I am sure it’s not
because she didn’t like them because when she gave them to me they were still
sealed. LOL. Don’t be surprised, that’s just typical my mum. I guess she’s the
kind of woman who loves to shop but most of the time wasn’t even interested in
using them. On our last trip to Malaysia she went crazy for skinny pants types
and bought three or four of them, the high street ones like Zara, Mango and Promod,
and then quickly dump them all to me because she claimed them to be too
constricting and uncomfortable LOL. I don’t mind! More branded hands-me-down,
and brand new ones too!!!) and this is one of them.
I used them up *well, hubby used
them more actually*
We have finished the product long ago *LOL*, more than a month ago, finished up two more bottles of body lotions since (reviews to be expected!) |
The texture of this body cream is
light, gel-like.
The smell is… as it claims,
mixture of milk and honey, I guess *I am quite bad at describing smells,
sorry*. It’s okay for me but I imagine it might not be a hit for everybody, it
can be a bit musky and strong, but then again I have a super sensitive nose so
it might just be me LOL. I won’t describe the smell as yummy or heavenly,
that’s all I can say LOL. But I think it smells “healthy” and “wholesome”, like
you can tell that it would be good for you. Am I even making any sense now?
I found this body cream to be too
rich, very greasy and makes your skin slippery :p. I thought it was just me because my skin’s already in the
normal category, but when I slather them on hubby, his skin also became very
slippery and it stays slippery for a very long time *until you accidentally rub
them off the sheet or something LOL* so I don’t think it’s just me then
(hubby’s skin’s super dry to the point of cracking and blistering LOL).
Since I do not like very greasy
feeling I usually put them only on my legs which needs more love *it tends to
be a tad drier than my arms* and I love how it adds a sheen to my legs making
them looks *ahem* sexy :D. But really, I don’t really like smelling like it
when I go out, since it’s so strong and might clash with my fragrances, so I
mostly wore them at home when I wasn’t going out.
I found them very moisturizing,
but probably more suitable for people with dry skin *like hubby, I saw some
improvement when he used this, but then he took one shower using Lux body
shower down stair and just like that, his skin’s totally ruined again. Back to
square 1 FML* or people who doesn’t mind the greasy and slippery feeling :p.
Would I buy this again? Err..
maybe the body lotion type? It’s bound to be less greasy, right? All in all, it
is quite good in terms of moisturizing (and giving sexy sheen). I’m not crazy
about the scent and greasiness, but I think it’s still worth a try :D. Hope you found this
review useful!
I am feeling a bit under the weather, my eyes are puffy and my double eyelids are super huge right not (only happens whenever i'm sick or about to be sick, dammit) and they feel swollen zzzz. Looking at pictures of my past travels makes me feel better, i cannot wait until April!!! Traveling again soon!!! Leaving y'all with a picture of me at The Venetian, Macau, in 2011, i miss Macau! Watching recent Running Man episodes shot in Macau makes it worse! I will be back, Macau!

DeleteJadi body cream ini ga cepat terserap kulit ya? :O
ReplyDeleteIyahh kalo pengalamanku pake sih gitu, tp moisturizing kok, cm ga tahan sama licinnya hehehe
DeleteHm... aku paling ga suka yang licin gt... jadi kayak berat ke kulit, apalagi kalau lagi cuaca terik... Sayang bgt, pdhl kombinasi susu dan madu kesukaannya ;'(
DeleteIyahh,sama, toss dulu hehehehe. Aq jg suka bgt milk n honey, tp yg ini baunya jg agak2.... hehehehe. Saking licinnya kalo abis duduk di lantai lantainya lsg licin2 juga :p
