Origins - Calm To Your Senses Lavender and Vanilla Body Smoother

Posted by Rica at 10:06 PM 0 comments



I love this Body Smoother / scrub from Origins. I got this from MUA swap that's why I have no idea whether it is still available nor how much this costs.

It has this very good lavender smell and not strong scented at all. Also, the scrub is good, not that rough to get my skin irritated, it didn't give any violent reaction to my skin as well. Also, I love the after effect of this scrub. It has this silky skin after effects that helps my skin to glow after using it and also, keeps my skin hydrated and lessen my pimples.

By the way, I use this twice a week only. Do not use scrubs everyday as it may dehydrate your skin, use it at least once or twice a week only.

Origins - Let It Show Bare Body Skin Enhancer

Posted by Rica at 12:24 PM 0 comments



Are you sure this is a bronzer? I got this from MUA Swap. Actually, it was from a multiply swap and since I heard that the brand "Origins" is nice, so I gave it a try.

It has a very, very good smell. Everytime I put it onto my body, I love its smell. I just noticed that Origins products have that signature smell on each of their products. Try it, you'll know what I'm talking about.

Unfortunately, I don't really like the product itself (Except for its good smell). First of all, anything in "liquid" form is a no-no for me. I don't like liquids since it has the tendency of being messy and it is very hard to control. This liquid body bronzer from Origins is very liquidy, very, very hard to control. You just tilt the tube open and "boom!" liquid pours out of the tube uncontrollably...

Second, it doesn't really work for me. I tried to love it, believe me. But it's not really working. I don't get any color darker than my original skin color. Also, it's a bit sticky especially when applied on a hot and greasy day.

Anyway, I'm just going to finish this product. I'm not going to repurchase this. Good thing I just got it from a swap.
