[Review] Fragrance- Giorgio Armani Acqua di Gioia eau fraiche

Another perfume sample I found, this time in Vanity Trove (read here to know more about Vanity Trove), is an EDT Acqua di Gioia by Giorgio Armani.

Image Source: www.vanitytrove.com

Giorgio Armani Acqua di Gioia eau fraiche was launched in early 2013 and is said to be a lighter and fresher version of Acqua di Gioia perfume from 2010. The fragrance is inspired by nature- gentle breeze, delicate water and soft green leaves. The fragrance has dominant aquatic notes and subtle floral ones. The bottle design is unique, sophisticated yet feminine.

My Take on Giorgio Armani Acqua di Gioia
The fragrance is different from the usual floral soapy scents. As you spray the fragrance opens with citrus notes specially lemon and orange and going on to mild floral notes dominated by Jasmine. Since the floral scents are not very strong and are also neutralised by tea and ylang-ylang, I am loving the fragrance in its middle notes as well. The base notes start with an immensely sweet smell ending in musky notes. The only part I dislike is the sweet smell, which lingers on for a while but thankfully not so long. Being an EDT, it did not last really long but for around 4-5 hours, which I'll consider to be average. So, this is a fragrance that is Citrusy, not too floral, sweet and musky. I would have loved to buy it if it was a bit more long lasting, may be I should try out the EDP version and see if I like the fragrance.

Retail Price- 50ml for S$83.50 and 100ml for 109.50.

[Event] Vanity Trove X Decleor Exclusive Member's Event

Sometime ago, I was invited by Vanity Trove to this cozy Exclusive Member's Event in collaboration with DECLÉOR, a French brand that incorporates aromatherapy into beauty regime, at SEVIIN, TANGS. 

The event was to mark the launch the new range of Prolagene Lift from DECLÉOR and also the new phase of Vanity Trove (Click here to read more about Vanity Trove). The event was organised at the Loft, SEVIIN, TANGS with some yummy treats...

After getting to know about DECLÉOR's new range of anti-ageing products (Read more on Anti-Ageing here) with products like essence, day and night cream, eye cream, wrinkle fill etc. we got to know about some facial exercises to keep the skin healthy and firm. That was something interesting to know...

That was followed by introducing the new phase of Vanity Trove- creating a platform to share our beauty tips and tricks with others. The Vanity Trove website is now like a facebook for beauty or rather a BeautyBook for face, where you can follow people or brands or products, interact with them, like posts, add pictures, product review and a lot more.

Apart from all this, you can update your beauty profile to get sample recommendation based on the same which you can add to your customised trove and receive it every time for S$25. The best part of all this is, if you are a Vanity Trove subscriber, they make all the efforts to vanish your Monday Morning Blues by sending a mail in your inbox informing about the new sample that are added every Monday, so you can add them to your customised Trove. 

After all this, not to forget the lovely door gift that all of us received...

It was great to receive samples of Aromessence IRIS Rejuvenating Serum, Intensive Youth Concentrate, Rejuvenating Night Balm and Lift & Firm Day Cream. Also, voucher for Decleor Treatments at SEVIIN, TANGS. Will write about these samples and sessions soon.

Till then, keep reading and discovering!

[Review] Human+Kind All-in-one Hand+Elbow+Foot Cream

I received this Human+Kind All-in-one Hand+Elbow+Foot Cream in the Vanity Trove (To know more about Vanity Trove, read the post here).
The first thing that I found interesting about the product is the brand name Human+Kind and the tagline skincare with a conscience. It is a brand that claims for products being simple, natural, dependable and multitasking... now who doesn't love multitasking products in this stressful life.

Product Description
Talking about the product, the packaging is also interesting with an all over floral pattern with a central medallion. Then comes the fact that this product is a multitasking product- All in One Hand+Elbow+Foot cream so there is no need for three or atleast two separate products.
This cream claims of No Chemicals, No Colourants, No Parabens, No Perfume, No Additives, No Animal Testing, Dermatologically Tested, Hypo Allergenic, Suitable for Sensitive Skin and presence of 8 active ingredients- Avocado Oil, Cocoa Seed Butter, Shea Butter, Centella, Rosehip Oil, Calendula, Vitamin E and Aloe Vera..

My Views of the Product
The cream has a light creamy texture and is instantly absorbed on application. It is non greasy as well... :) I was a bit sceptical about its effect on drier parts like elbows and feet but it instantly moisturized these drier parts as well.  It has herbal fragrance. Looks like a great product when you are travelling and don't want to carry a lot of luggage around. The 50ml tube will easily fit into your handbag.

Will I buy it again?

Yes.

Retail Price: S$ 15.00 for 50ml

Available At: http://www.whathewants.com.sg in Singapore

So, if you travel a lot and need to moisturise your hand and feet often, forget about carrying so many tubes of skin care products. This single product will be an answer to all your needs.

[Review] Fragrance- Marc Jacobs Daisy

Hey Everyone,
Hope you all had a great weekend! Today's post is about a perfume sample that I received in Vanity Trove (To know more about how Vanity Trove works, read the post here). So, fragrance is Marc Jacobs Daisy, launched in 2007.

Image Source: http://www.theperfumeshop.com

Though I just recieved a sample but when I looked for the bottle, I found the bottle design quite interesting. Rarely you find a decorative design for perfume bottles. The bottle is definitely worth keeping on the dresser. The lid has daisies in white and gold on it.
Talking about the fragrance, it opens with strawberry and grapefruit notes and is immensely fruity, which is definitely something I don't like. The middle notes give way to floral notes dominated by Jasmine and after a real long time, you get to smell a light woody fragrance with musk and vanilla. The fragrance is really fresh and a little soapy as well. Somehow, for me it seemed to be dominated by fruity and floral notes and which I am not really fond of. But someone who loves it would really love the fragrance as well. It has quite fresh and clean scent.

Available as EDT 50ml at S$94.00, 100ml at S$124.00 and EDP 50ml at S$129.00 at http://sg.strawberrynet.com

[Review] Fragrance- Blumarine Bellissima Acqua di Primavera

Hi Dearies,
How do you like your perfume? Do you like something strong? or mild? fruity? or musky? Well each of us have a particular preference for fragrance. So let me talk about an interesting  EDT by Blumarine- Bellissima Acqua di Primavera, which literally translates to green or spring. I received this 30ml bottle of perfume with my Vanity Trove (you may like to see the other products here)

[Review] Cyber Colors Ex Volume Waterproof Mascara

I received this full sized sample of Cyber Colors Ex Volume Waterproof Mascara (black) from Vanity Trove. The product is Made in Japan. This is a waterproof formulation with a flexible wand that is great for curling. After staying in Japan for 10 months, I have developed a great liking for Japanese and Made In Japan products. 

[Review] Latest Vanity Trove

Hi Lovelies,
With the new concept at Vanity Trove, where you get to choose the sample from the given list based on your beauty profile (To know more about how it works, read here), I ordered my second box and received it on the second day... that was quick, I must say!
Let me show you what was in there...

This time I wanted to sample following products from the list provided, let me talk about them-

1. ENAVOSE Bundle Set- Alpine Edelweiss Foam Cleanser & Alpine Edelweiss Dew, 30ml each (Retail Price- Cleanser: S$ 39.50 for 120ml, Dew: S$45.00 for 120ml)- Enavose is a Swiss brand, which has products made from Natural extracts. The Edelweiss flower is known for its antioxidants, skin protection, soothing and bacteria-resistant properties. This comforting cleanser bathes skin in nourishing and age-delaying benefits. On trying, the product, I experienced a bit of dryness on my face, since I have combination skin with oily T-zone. May be the cleanser will work better for those with oily skin. 

The Alpine Edelweiss Dew is a stimulating toner which revitalise, rehydrate and refresh the skin. Skin regains energy with high antioxidant protection and collagen synthesis support. A constant supply of moisture is channelled to dry areas of skin for optimal suppleness. The toner is a slightly viscous liquid with a pleasant fragrance. On application, you feel instant freshness and it definitely felt better on applying the Dew after the Cleanser, but there is still a need to use moisturizer. The products can be purchased at Suntec Enavose Concept Store, Suntec City Tower 3, #02-079/081 and Tangs Vivocity Enavose Beauty Counter, Level One Beauty Hall. Value of Sample- Cleanser: S$9.87, Dew: S$11.25.

2. CYBER COLOURS Ex Volume Waterproof Mascara

This was a full sized sample worth almost S$34.00. Will review this product in a separate post.

3. DrGL Collagen Essence, 10ml (Retail Price- S$198.00 for 30ml)- This is a light weight essence suitable for all skin types. It contains Hyaluronic Acid, which can retain upto 1000 times its weight of water. On application, it did feel moisturized and the skin felt hydrated and refreshed. Seems to be an effective product, will have to use it for a while to know exactly how it works. Value of sample- S$66.

4. Blumarine Bellissima Acqua di Primavera, 30ml (Retail Price- S$51.00)- This was another full sized sample and I will review it in another post.

5. Pearl Beauty Youth Restore with Black Pearl Essence, 3ml (Retail Price- S$21.90 for 30ml)- Pearl Beauty is low cost but effective skincare range from WATSONS. This essence is formulated for Advanced skin restoration. It restructures your skin, repairs free radical damage and slows down skin aging, all while firming and smoothing out fine lines. The essence has a light texture and is quickly absorbed leaving the skin feel refreshed and hydrated. An interesting product yet again, need to try it on for a while. Value of sample- S$2.20.

6. Sasatinnie Sugary Heart Lipgloss Palette, 01 Party Collection, 1.1g X3 (Retail Price- S$12.60)- This is a full size lip gloss palette.It contains Pearl Powder which creates a shimmering and translucent lip finish. Also it soothes and diminishes fine lines of lips, protects skin from UV damage.

The colours are interesting and are those colours, which I can use almost everyday. And did I tell you, that they smell like strawberry... WOW!

7. Aqua Rine Japanese Aroma Bath Sea Salt Peach, 50g (Retail Price- S$ 9.80 for 400g)- The Aroma Bath Sea Salt range helps to exfoliate dead skin cells and cleanse the skin. The Peach Bath Sea Salt detoxifies the skin and reduces signs of ageing with its special peach leaf ingredient. Value of Sample- S$1.22.

8. Huiji Fruity Lite, 15g X2 Sachets (Retail Price- S$6.90 for box of 12 packets)- This was the surprise product. Huiji Fruity Lite are made from all natural ingredients like high-grade hawthorn fruit and honey. In addition, it also contains added vitamin C and xylitol and helps cleanse and promote a healthy digestive system. It is conveniently packaged in easy-to-carry sachets. The taste was like fruit tea and it tasted better when chilled. It can be consumed everyday even if it may not show any health benefits, it's a nice tasty beverage. Value of sample- S$1.15.

So, this was all about the products in Vanity Trove. I could order for a good mix of products including skin care, make up, shower, fragrance and received the fruity tea as well.

This concept of selecting what you want is no doubt quite interesting as you can pick and choose from a list of products that you would really like and have a variety of products to try but on the down side-
1. The surprize element is missing. Though you get one product as a surprise but then also, I feel if you are a bit hesitant about new products or select your products based on their name and appearance, you may like to skip quite a few of the products in the list given for selection.
2. While when the products were selected by the team and given to you, one has more chances of getting a completely new product and since you have it, you might as well like to try it, so it opens up more product options for you and reduce the element of bias that may creep in when you are selecting.
3. To unlock new samples, you constantly have to like and put products into your wishlist and that is fun but after a while, it does not feel that exciting. And it kind of takes away the fun of somebody else selecting things for you and pampering you.
4. Also, the luxe brands are more often than not missing from the selection.
5. Chances of receiving a full-size sample are not so good.

So, if I give 10 on 10 for the previous concept of Vanity Trove, for this I would give 8 on 10.

[Review] Personalized Vanity Trove

In one of my posts, a few days ago, I told you all about the new Customizable Trove from Vanity Trove (You may check the post here). Well, I got my Personalized trove on Monday (they tried to deliver earlier but we were out for the weekend and I was not there to collect it) and let me show you how it was and what was there inside (of course, it was not a surprise as I only selected all the products, but to get to try things you really wanted to... is wonderful!).
The trove came in a beige and gold packing than their usual white and pink. 

What I love most about Vanity Trove is their packaging. It really feels good when you receive your beauty products in beautifully packed boxes. Really appreciate the efforts of the team for making the trove so lovable. Let's see what is inside this luxurious gold trove

These were the products that I selected from their list which was given based on my beauty profile. I selected seven products and one was given as a bonus from the Team. Thank you Vanity Trove!!!
Let me now talk about the products

1. Kao KAO Essential Rich Premier Shampoo, 80ml (Retail Price- S$4.50 for 200ml)- This was the bonus product that I received. It is a moisturizing shampoo for unmanageable hair that reduces breakage. You may find the complete product description and reviews here. Value of sample- S$1.80.

2. NUXE Gentle Tonic Lotion, 35ml (Retail Price- S$38 for 200ml)- This a skin toner with mild fragrance of Rose. I wanted to try this because I am in a constant look out for toners. Although I am loyal user of Rose water with Camphor as a toner but sometimes when I recommend products for my clients, some of them do not prefer rose-water and hence I try out toners from different brands. This toner leaves your skin refreshed. Value of Sample- S$6.65.

3. Bio-essence Bird's Nest Nutri-Collagen & Whitening Sleeping Mask, 3g (Retail Price- S$29.80 for 60g)-  This is a whitening mask, which will work while you sleep and make your skin healthy, smooth and radiant, restores skin vitality. It is a non-greasy formula and there is no need to rinse off. Any mask that can be used at night while sleeping is great as in if something works for you while sleeping, what could be better than that! Value of Sample- S$1.50.

4. Love More Facial Masks- Mediterranean Pomegranate, 1 pc of 25ml (Retail Price- S$8.90 for 5 pcs)- Love More masks are available in different variants. Mediterranean Pomegranate is for skin brightening. With all the sun and humidity of Singapore that takes a toll on your skin. Value of Sample- S$1.78.

5. Lunamer Brightener, 20ml (Retail Price- S$60 for 100ml)- A skin-purifying and energising beauty essence that wipes away dullness-causing aged keratin and dirt, and recharges skin by delivering moisturising ingredients deep into the corneal layer. It is recommended for use in night after cleansing your face. When I tried this product, it did result in an instantaneous glowing skin. Already loving it. Value of Sample- S$12.

6. Astalift Essence Destiny, 5ml (Retail Price- S$132 for 30ml)- Astalift Essence contains a higher concentration of Astaxanthin, the wholesome goodness of Royal Jelly, skin-firming Elastin and three different types of moisturising Collagens. It has a gel like texture and leaves your skin really soft and supple on use. Value of Sample- S$22.

7. Astalift Jelly Aquarysta, 5g (Retail Price- S$148 for 40g)- Packed with the nourishing goodness of Ceramide, Jelly Aquarysta contains the world’s smallest ‘human-type’ Nano-Ceramide molecules to maximise absorption into skin to replenish lost Ceramide (due to ageing), enhance skin’s moisture retention ability and maintain optimum levels of moisture in skin. The unique light-as-water jelly texture enables a highly-concentrated and stable blend of skin-loving nutrients to penetrate deeply into skin for optimum nourishment.  Value of Sample- S$18.50.

8. Kerastase Elixir Ultimate Oleo- Complexe, 3ml Vial (Retail Price: S$62 for 125ml) is a lighly fragrant beautifying hair oil for all hair types. It can be used as a conditioner before shampoo or as leave in treatment after shampoo. It contains a combination of camellia, argan, maize and pracaxi oils and Vitamin A, E and F with omega 3 and 6. It gives shine and nourishment to hair. It is one of my favorites for being light and non greasy leave on product. Value of Sample- S$1.50

So, this was all about my personalized Vanity Trove. All products look promising and would love to see what really works for my skin after trying out for a few days.

[Review] Vanity Trove- July 2013

The Vanity Trove of July 2013 came packed with beautiful surprises, with the theme 'Midsummer Gala'. The products with this theme are meant to rejuvenate the heat-exhausted skin in the mid of summer season. 

The trove comes with a fashion & beauty journal Vanity, which gives detailed information about the products to be included in the trove every month and also has some offers and discount coupons. The brands selected for July's Midsummer Gala were VICHY NORMADERM, NEUTROGENA, JANE IREDALE, PHYSIOGEL, HERBORIST, D'GLAMOURIC, SKIN INC and AVANCE. I received a lot of products in July Trove and let me tell you all about them. 

1. Physiogel Cleanser, 60ml (Retail Price- S$18.90 for 500ml) is a soap free cleanser suitable for all skin types and the best part is that it can be used with or without water. It helps in maintaining the skin's moisture balance. When used with and without water, it did not cause dryness. It can be used on face and body. It  can also be used for babies (printed on the cover). Value of sample- S$2.27.

2. Physiogel Cleanser, Lotion and Cream Sachets, 10ml, 10ml and 3ml (Retail Price: Cleanser- S$18.90 for 500ml, Lotion- S$33.90 for 200ml, Cream- S$22.85 for 75ml) The lotion helps in skin repair and hydration. This can also be used for the face and body. The Cream contains natural lipids, similar to those in the skin and revitalize and protect the dry skin. The samples could not be tried yet because of the sachets (This is why I don't like Sample Sachets!) Value of Samples: Cleanser- S$0.38, Lotion- S$1.75, Cream- S$0.91.

3. SKIN INC Repair Pcynogenol Serum, 30ml (Retail Price- S$169 for 30ml)- In the June Vanity Trove, I received SKIN INC Regenerate Vitamin A Serum (which I am currently using and loving it!) and this time, out of the two products selected for the trove I got Repair Pcynogenol Serum containing anti-oxidants that helps in moisturizing skin and combating ageing. It has beady texture and when tried, the serum leaves the skin moisturized and soft. I think I am already falling in love with this serum. The other product was SKINC Regulate Vitamin C Serum, which helps in minimizing the pores and outbreak of pimples. The selection of product for my trove shows the personalization of trove where I mentioned in my beauty profile that I have no pimples or any other skin inflammation. 

Also, there is Voucher from SKIN INC for a free treatment. Waiting to go for it as well :)
