Oh, you know how I love my scrubs… so of course I had to try one by Vivo Per Lei. I tried Eden. Sounds lush, doesn’t it?
Basics: This is the most course salt scrub I have ever used. This is not a statement of displeasure, as I do enjoy a good scrub now and again. It smells pleasant – sort of like coconut, I think (imagine the car air freshener called “tropical”.)
Extravagance: You know how some scrubs come drowned in a pool of oil, and disintegrate very quickly the moment they make contact with your skin? This is not one of them. It is not too oily, and the salts last forever…
Imperfections:… maybe too long. I finally just rinsed off, and ended up marching across salts in the shower. It is a very sturdy scrub.
To Sum it Up: If you like to scrub the heck out of your skin (like I do), Vivo Per Lei makes the scrub for you. I cannot wait to try another scent!
Vivo Per Lei Salt Scrub – Eden
The drying summer heat is starting to drift away, and leading us into the crisp and windy autumn chill. Sooner than we know, it will be the cold burn of winter.
There are skin drying elements in every season (except maybe spring… but it is a long way off, still.) Because of this, I’m continuing my search for the products that will aid in moisturizing and repair of my poor dry skin, without buying into the zit instigation of my oily zones. It’s tough.
Basics: A delightful mask, blending collagen and seaweed to moisturize and sooth your skin. Pretty much a staple for the at home facial.
Extravagance: Girls, the presentation on this stuff is amazing. When I got my mask, the first thing I noticed was the very elegant box – an opalescent white with silver printing. I flipped open the lid (with the magnetic closure!!!) to find what looked to be a green pearl nestled into a white silky pillow. Really made me feel high end!
Imperfections: It is a little bit perfumey. Not a bad smell at all, just a tad too much pretty for my taste.
To Sum it Up: Okay, so I’ve used this twice for my at home facial, and I really like it. I mean, it is going to be a finish up the jar kind of product for me (not likely to end up in the land of unused cosmetics that I call my bathroom closet.) No breakouts. No irritation. And, as an added plus, I noticed some definite plumping of my skin. Yay!
