Has anyone tried Belif's Body Bomba lotion? It has great reviews at Sephora, and the Ylang Ylang scent is tempting: "A rich, oil-based body lotion powered by the Asian miracle oil, ylang ylang, that helps hydrate dry, damaged skin and support natural blood circulation for smooth, glowing skin." $26 for 250 ml (and there is also a Citrus Verbena scent at Sephora, and a Rosemary scent that might not be in the US yet).
From the Summer 2018 Verbena collection at L'Occitane, Citrus Verbena Moisturizing Body Foam, $29 for 150 ml. "For a whipped cream effect, this Citrus Verbena Moisturizing Body Foam helps refresh and hydrate the skin all day long. The sparkling scent of citrus fruits combined with verbena extract from Provence leaves skin delicately fragranced with a zesty, invigorating scent."
Although I’ve garnered something of a reputation as a rose-lover over the past decade, I don’t review rose fragrances exclusively — in fact, my last rose perfume review was Sana Jardin Tiger by Her Side (November 2017) and my last rose body product review was even further back (September 2017). Since June is the month of roses, it seems like an appropriate time to update this situation! Here are a few rose-fragranced body products that I’ve recently tried.
I need to thank one of you (thanks, Creosote!) for recommending Andalou Naturals 1000 Roses Soothing Body Lotion to me. Its consistency is just right: almost thick enough to qualify as a cream, but lightweight enough to spread and absorb without any waiting time…
Hawaiian Tropic Lime Coolada After Sun moisturizer, just in case I manage to get some sun this summer: "Indulge your senses with the lush scent of Hawaiian Tropic Lime Coolada After Sun moisturizer—ideal for everyday use! This after sun lotion is blended with exotic island botanicals, shea and cocoa butters, and soothing Aloe Vera that will leave your skin soft and refreshed." It has pretty good reviews everywhere I looked, and I predict it will be my next cheap thrill. About $7 for 474 ml at Target.
Molton Brown's latest collection: Vetiver & Grapefruit. "The warm sophistication of Haitian vetiver conflicts with the cool, tonic freshness of grapefruit, resulting in a tense union… vetiver oil reveals subtle grapefruit undertones - just enough to relieve this tension and convey a sense of effortless elegance." Available in Bath & Shower Gel, Body Lotion and Deodorant spray.
