HAUL:

SECHE RESTORE

Professional Kit

Here's what it claims to do...

How to make goopy nail polish 'new' again?

Put a few drops of this in it, shake/roll and leave for a few minutes then apply! The formula should be less gloopy, if it is still a bit then add a few more drops of the Seche Restore!!

Have I tried it?

Yes, and it works! :D (Hence, how I can explain the method above!)

Victoria's Secret Room 504 Nourishing Body Cream Review

What does it smell like?

- The scent is described as.... "sultry amber and passionfruit"

- I can scent the passionfruit

Do you like it?

- Yes

- Quite nice

- I like the scent - for sure, but not love... although I've used about 1/2 the tube so far!

- Nice for everyday...

Is it greasy?

- No, not greasy...

Is it moisturising?

- Yes, but not super duper moisturising... not drying though.

Would I repurchase?

- I think I will try others, before coming back to this one. But in the future, perhaps. :)

Out of 10?

- I give it... 6/10

Do you use body lotion? If yes, which one is your fave?

Victoria's Secret Berry Kiss Ultra Moisturizing Hand & Body Cream Review

Here is the bottle...

The back says...

- Made in USA
- 200mL

Fragrance
- Yum!
- Smells like berries - sweet, sweet and sweet!
- Smells exactly like the EDT reviewed here!

Is it moisturizing like it claims?
- Urh... well I didn't feel my skin getting dry... so yes!
- The texture is pretty thick since it is a cream and not a lotion so it is more moisturizing then lotions but I don't feel it sufficating my skin.

So... did you like the scent?
Yes!

Where did you get it from?
Singapore International Airport

How much was it?
About SG$20

Would you repurchase?
Yes! (If I can ever find it again!!!)


Are you a fan of berry scents?

Victoria's Secret Berry Kiss EDT Review

Here is the bottle...

- 30mL
- Made in USA


Packaging
- nice small simple packaging
- lightweight
- travel friendly

Fragrance
- berry-licious scent!
- smells very very berry
- doesn't last very long on me but it is an EDT (I guessimate that it lasts about an hour on me, but different skins it would last differently!)

Where did I purchase mine? And how much was it?
Singapore International Airport! I was really happy to see that they had VS! The price I paid was about SG$20.00.

Would I repurchase?
Hmm... I LOVE THE SCENT for its berry-ness but I think I like it more as a body cream (will do a review on that soon so stay tuned!) rather than a fragrance! So, no I would not repurchase.

Overall
For an everyday fragrance it is ideal because it is relatively inexpensive (check out their website here, however I do not see this particular scent, they have others in their line though) but it is a bit too fruity for me. I am more into florals. It is a bit different and not something I have smelled on other people ever before!


What's your fave VS scent? What do you like purchasing from VS?

Victoria's Secret Pear Glace Hydrating Body Lotion

250mL
Made in USA

The bottle...

Fragrance: Pear Nectar, Cassis & Violet

- light weight lotion
- the smell lasts for a few hours on my skin
- not so sure I'm loving this scent so much on me personally but it is a nice not-to-sweet scent that could be decribed as not to girly
- packaging is plastic & user-friendly
- can definately smell the pears lol! I'm not sure I want to smell like fruit all day though.... maybe strawberries hahah but not pears! -_-

Would I repurchase this particular scent?
No. I want to try others because I am not too thrilled about this one! It is OKAY, but not WOW!


What's your fave VS scent?
