Product Review: Aloha Pink Wild and Breezy

Hi everyone!

Over the weekend I stopped into Victoria's Secret to buy some new unmentionables, and I decided to take a look at the fragrances they had too, since it had been a while being there and also being a while since I bought some new nice body stuff. 

I think most of Victoria's Secret body washes and fragrances are lovely but one just made me fall in love with it for every day use.

Aloha Pink in Wild n Breezy

The items in this picture that I have are the two on the right: the body spray and the 2 in 1 scrub.

According to the label the main scents in wild n breezy are red guava and pink passionflower. Either way it smells nice, fresh, clean, and not overly "girly" but feminine enough.

 The spray is pretty strong for not being a parfum/eau de toilette. It does fade after a while but that's a LONG while.

The body scrub is pretty amazing too.  I love the exfoliating effect, and it gets me clean and leaves my skin pretty soft for not using lotion (I intend on definitely getting the lotion of this scent!) and it leaves a decent but not overbearing fragrance on my skin.

The body spray goes for $15 each and the scrub goes for $12. However Victoria's Secret is having a special where any 2 are 22$ and 3 for 30$ I believe. 

Japanese Bath Salt Review #2

Hi everyone!

Here is the second bath salt I bought with a review- 

Bathclin Cherry Blossom Bath Salts

Features: jojoba seed oil and angelica acutiloba root extract for moisture, it turns the water a clear, light pink and has a very floral smell. Guys- you will smell like a lady after using it but your skin will feel really nice!

I love the smell of this stuff and the pink water, and more importantly I like the way my skin feels when I get out of the bath. Not a dry sandbucket but not quite as moisturized as the Pureskin salts I reviewed earlier.  In the end, which is better is really a matter of your preference. These salts, like the previous are not very expensive (10-12 USD) and last a long time when you measure according to the directions. (about 30 baths worth per package) 

I will be trying more salts in the future (there is a wide variety of them!) and will continue posting more reviews~!

Japanese Bath Salt Review #1

Hi everyone!

If you love taking baths, then this post will be of great interest.  I love taking baths too, but most bubble baths dry me out, skin-wise.  Don't get me wrong, they smell good, I love the bubbles, but when I get out I feel drier than a bucket of sand.  I heard from a penpal of mine in Japan that they have many different types of bath salts, from anti-aging to those meant to replicate an experience at a particular hot spring.  This sounded interesting to me, so I went to my local Japanese market and lo and behold, they also had a bunch of different salts to choose from!  I bought two kinds (hence the #1 in the title) and tried them both out.

#1 Bathclin Pureskin Bath Salts

These salts also have Hyaluronic Acid and Aloe, both of which moisturize the skin. In fact, we have Hyaluronic Acid in our skins already but this decreases as we age.  The salts are a dark green, and make the bath water a milky green color but they do not stain the bathtub or anything else.   It has a nice clean scent, I think it could be suitable for unisex use, the scent does stay on your skin pretty strongly, but not sickeningly strong. 

When I get out of the bath after using this stuff, I'm not nearly as dry-skinned as I normally would be coming out of a regular bubble bath.

This is also more cost-effective than bubble bath (I go through a bottle every two weeks or less because I take a bath after my showers almost nightly).  This 660 gram package has enough to give over 30 baths (the directions say 20 grams per bath, which is about half of the cap that is on the package.) and costs between 9.99-12.99 depending on where you get it from. 

You can order it online, or it could be carried at an Asian market in the health/beauty section.


I highly recommend this stuff, will review the next salt, Bathclin Cherry Blossom, in an upcoming post!

Bath and Body Works Haul!!!

Hello!!!



I know it's been a while since my last blog- but this time I have a haul!!!




Bath and Body Works was having a sale AND a coupon dealie going on.  I was running out of my Japanese Cherry Blossom body spray (which I use post-gym) so I decided this would be an opportune time to get more spray, as well as lotions and shower gel.


This time I chose my other favorite scent- Sweet Pea! 

From left to right: Fragrance Mist, 2 shower gels, another Fragrance Mist, and Body Cream.

I also bought my friend some Sheer Freesia stuff, the same at mine.  It seems they had given us 2 extra sprays, so she kept one and I kept one for the gym bag.  Sheer Freesia is an older scent that you can now only buy online.

Sheer Freesia Body Splash!

Last, but definitely NOT least, they were also having a sale on hand and foot stuff.  Since I rarely have time for a pedicure (and god knows in a perfect world, we would ALL get them every two weeks) I picked up these.

From Left: Toe The Line (Foot scrub), Footloose and Fancy Fizz (soaking salts for a footbath) and Tough Love (an Alpha Hydroxy Acid cream for removing calluses)

A review on all of these things will be coming within the next few days or so, I want to give the callus treatment a chance to work.

Good night everyone!

Love,
