Soap and Glory Haul & Review

Hi guys. This would be my first blog post for Pink Mess and I hope I'll be able to handle the constant need to update on new products for you guys!


So, recently I was out with a few girlfriends at KL to shop and we landed up in Sephora @ Starhill Gallery. I was actually on a hunt for a good nude lipstick (but I was unsuccessful, unfortunately :/) and Erica actually introduced me to SOAP AND GLORY which is a UK brand. I literally stood there for almost an hour reading each description carefully and got only hand soap + hand cream set. When I got home, me being my usual self, I started my research on this brand and LO AND BEHOLD, I went back to Sephora and got a whole load more of Soap and Glory products. I'll be going back for more, no doubt! I am in LOVE with Soap and Glory and you will be very, very soon!

 Soap and Glory haul (AHHHHHH...!)

So I'll start of with the face cleanser - Face Soap and Clarity

It kinda has a minty-fresh smell which I think smells really refreshing personally. What I like about it as well is that it has these microbits in them that gives you that massaging feeling when you apply. Didn't really see much reviews on this facial wash so I thought I'd give it a try. The other cleanser I THINK is call Scrub Your Nose In It has been reviewed more because it is an older product.





Next is the hand moisturizer - Hand Food

I AM IN LOVE WITH THIS PRODUCT. IN LOVE! I really love the smell and I just keep sniffing my hands like a dog after applying, I LOVE IT. Most S&G products carry this signature smell that I have no idea comes from what but again, I LOVE IT. This hand cream is not greasy AT ALL and it really lasts for hours. I put it on before I went to bed and when I woke up, I could still feel the cream on my hands. It doesn't really have much affect on my skin yet (I've only used this product for about a week now?) but I guess it will take some time till we can really see the results. I'll update in about a month or so's time on the results. Mind that the texture of my hands are extremely rough!



Foot Cream - Heel Genius

THIS WORKS! Really! I've only been using this for like, my third time?, and my feet have instantly gotten smoother! Even my mom said that she was going to give this a try! Forget pedicures guys! This cream works wonders. I'm not even kidding. I would let you touch my feet if you want to... So if you really have a problem with your feet/heels like its really rough and if you have my problem which is layers and layers of dead (thick) skin due to too much walking or flaky skin, this will do the trick. It doesn't show results instantly, of course. But for the amount of time that I've used it, my feet are visibly smoother which I'm really happy about because now I don't have to go to the fish spa or have a pedicure session which would both cost me a bomb!


 

Gift Pack - Hand Food & Wash Your Hand Of It

This gift pack I thought was really cute and I couldn't resist OMG. Hand Food cream is basically the same just that this is in a pump container instead of a tube. I haven't tried it yet but I have smelled the hand soap and OH MY LORD! I LOVE IT. + I love the packaging.





Body Scrub - Flake Away

I've read lots of reviews on this body scrub and I thought I'd give it a try. Exact same smell as Hand Food and apparently it helps remove cellulite. It's not stated on the packaging but one review I read said that it got rid of cellulite (hmmmm....). It's a really large container (300ml) and I have a feeling it'll take me months to finish it... Hope to see good results!


I'm definitely going back for more! Thinking of getting the moisturizing cream and facial wipes!

I also got a Sephora Loyalty card thingy and I got a free gift (which I haven't redeemed yet). Those of you who haven't redeemed it, remember to PRINT OUT the email the sent. I went twice and the salesgirl told me a could just flash the email to them and when I did the next time, they didn't accept it now I have to go back again -.- PLEASE do it by 18 JUNE 2012 dateline! Personally I find this Sephora card quite useless. Unlike the Fashion Fast Forward card which is RM1 = 1 point, this card is RM5 = 3 points and you only get a 10% discount voucher when you have collected 250 points which means you have to spend at least RM 417 -.- but either way it's free and you get a free gift so what the heck!


One thing about Soap and Glory that I really love is that everything is pink, everything smells so good and I love their packaging! Their prices are really affordable as well. I wouldn't say they are cheap as some of your drugstore brands but I would say for what you are paying, you are getting back way more.


So, I hope you like my first blog post! Let me know if there's anything I can improve on :)
