Oriflame Mirage Body Spray Review

Name: Mirage Body Spray
By: Oriflame
Cost: Rs. 229
Weight: 75ml

              Hey guys!
   Honestly, I'm a bit disappointed with this body spray. I don't recommend it for the sole reason that it's dry. Out of 100 parts, at least 30 parts are dry. Literally, just the spray comes out with no scent.                                      
          Here is the official description of it:
ORIFLAME MIRAGE Mirage is Oriflame's new perfume, mysterious and enchanting. Experience the exotic journey and awaken the hidden passions with every drop of this composition; a blend of seductive elemi notes, mandarine, orange, roses, jasmine, intensive vetiver, amber, sandalwood and vanilla. Mirage is enclosed in a special designed elegant bottle of dark green colors with golden trim, ideally suited to the magical nature of this mysterious fragrance, as it conjures images of magical charms and miraculous recipes.

               I'm not going to delve into the notes and the undertones as they are clearly given above. That done and over with, let me tell you about my experience with it.    

                                    
      It is rimmed with a golden band, something that i haven't seen before. The bottle is emerald green, with waves of slightly different green shades over it. It is a very pretty packaging, and that is what attracted me to it in the beginning.
                 It smells like...spices...and flowers. Sandalwood, jasmine, vetiver. I can smell them faintly. What i love is it's smell. If it wasn't for the dryness, i would say that this is the best body spray i have got till date. The scent clings for about a couple of hours.

PROS:
- Really travel friendly packaing
- Stunning to look at
- Smells heavenly
- Golden band ;)

CONS:
- Dry

                 I wouldn't buy this body spray again, but i would definitely love love love to buy it's perfume form. The smell (like i said before) is captivating!
          Well, see ya till next time!

Sanctury Spa Covent Garden Hand Cream Review

Name: Sanctury Spa Covent Garden Hand Cream
By: Sanctury Spa
Cost: Rs. 244
Weight: 30 ml or 1.01 US fl oz

             Hey creampies!
As you all can see, I have really loved this hand cream and it is well-used! (Almost flat)
        I personally feel that many of Sanctury Spa products are underrated. Their products are just so amazing! Non of them have disappointed me and frankly, i love all of them!
                                              
      First off, the packaging is cute and super easy to carry around. The orange cap really adds a pop of color! The cap is a simple flip on/off cap which is nice and secure.
          The words 'almond oil' and 'shea butter' caught my eye! These ingredients are known to be extremely moisturizing. The product inside is off white in color and so so buttery smooth! It smells like oranges and citrus fruits.    
                                           
     I apply a dollop of it every night before i go to sleep and it just leaves my hands so smooth and soft!
I love this hand cream so much!
 (P.S: It's over now)
 Lemme sum it all up!
PROS:
- Cute packaging
- Travel Friendly
- Smells nice
- Super moisturizing
- Perfect for dry to normal skin types

 CONS
- um.....non yet....

                    So here was a quick review about the Sanctury Spa Covent Garden Hand Cream. Hope you enjoyed!

See ya in my next review...Bye!

Feet Up Deodorising Foot Powder Review

Name: Foot Up Deodorising  Foot Powder
By: Oriflame
Weight: 75g
Cost: Rs.169

                          Hey Powderpuffs!
          There are not many foot powders out there in the market. So this really interesting me. It;s really cute and orange in color. Perfect for travel as it doesn't occupy much space.
                                           
           The cap has to be twisted to open, and you need to prick the silver foil underneath to make holes.
                                            
           Being a foot deodoriser, it basically removes any stink or smell from from feet. Come one, be honest! We all suffer from stinky feet!!!!
      Personally, my feet don't stink but i wear shoes from 6 in the morning to 4 in the afternoon...so anything that keeps my feet refreshed is good! I just put some in my palm and dust it over my feet. It doesn't get absorbed into the foot, but gives it a chalky look. Who cares? Your feet are going to be covered anyway!
                It smells like a citrus fruit, very summery smell. It is said to have bergamot and lime. But what i really, really like about this is that it keeps the feet feeling fresh throughout the day.
                        It is perfect for those people who wear shoes for a long time, who sweat a lot, whose feet stink a bit....or those people who live in generally sticky, humid climates.

PROS:
- Cute packaging
- Travel Friendly
- Smells great
- Lasts long

CONS
- Gives a chalky look to the feet
- Doesn't get absorbed into the foot

                           That's it for now! Stay tuned for more reviews coming up :) Please follow, comment and share!
             Bu-Bye!
