Received from iFabbo

Perlier Imperial Honey Body Butter is a thick white cream, formulated with the rare honey of Black Bees and Royal Jelly. Claims it nourishes skin with moisture, leaves skin pleasantly scented with the sensual notes of honey and oriental woods, and is good for year round use.

I say it does 2 out of the 3 things the makers claim it will. For me this did moisturize my skin really well and I do feel that it would be great for year round use because it absorbs in to the skin fairly quickly and does not leave you feeling greasy. Left my skin feeling super smooth and moisturized. The one thing that it did not do for me was leave my skin pleasantly scented wit the sensual notes of honey and oriental woods. For me this body butter has a really strong scent to it that is sickly sweet, my husband and I both agree that it smells like something we have smelled before, but we can't put our finger on it.

This would be a great moisturizer if you can get past the scent. I will probably continue to use this, but only on my legs when I wear pants and I will wash my hands right after I apply it, so I won't have to smell it. I also think for the price of this product the packaging was a little on the flimsy side.

This is not a product that I would recommend, only because of the scent of it, but if you like scents that are really sweet smelling you might like it.

September Favorties & Empties

Where did September go? I don't know either, but I do like the month of October because it's my Birthday month :)

I wanted to share my Favorites and my Empties from September with you today, I just have a handful of each.

First up is Avon's reformulated eye shadow quad in Stone Taupes. I liked Avon's eye shadows before they reformulated them, but these are just awesome. They feel very velvety, reminds me of the NYX shadows, I think the pigmentation is also better, but I still suggest using a primer.

Up next we have one of my new favorites, Perlier Volcanic Scrub. I got this from iFabbo and I really like it. I have a full review up here if you are interested.

Found a new favorite mascara this month, The Rocket by Maybelline. I still like the One by One Volume Express, but this is a close second to that.

My new favorite fragrance is Coconut Water from Bath & Body Works, really wish I had picked up another one of these.

Eclos facial cleanser is a product I received as a Klout Perk. I really like it, gets all the make up off my face and does not leave it feeling dry. I have also seen an improvement in the texture of my skin since using this.

Last but not least Dove go sleeveless deodorant. I had seen this product advertised a lot and how it claims it will "replenish delicate underarm skin—leaving it softer, smoother and ready to reveal in just five days" and I must say it's claims are true. Wish I had tried this a long time ago. I got soothing chamomile, but next time I think I will try a different scent.

Since I only had three empties this month I thought I would just add them in with my favorites.

I used up all my Cynthia Rowley Band-Aids that I got in a Birchbox forever and a day ago. Cute bandaids, but not worth the price.

I also finished up my got2be Smooth Operator Smoothing Luster Lotion. I really like this stuff for taming fly-aways when I flat iron my hair, already repurchased.

My poor little Maybelline One by One Volume Express, I used it as long as I could, honestly it should have probably been thrown out months ago, but I just couldn't let it go. I would repurchase this.

What have been your favorites during the month of September? What products did you finish up?

Review: Perlier Volcanic Thermal Scrub

Sponsored | Bought Myself | Press Sample | Nothing to Disclose

Today I have a review on the Perlier Volcanic Thermal Scrub that I got from iFabbo with my coins.

Perlier Volcanic Thermal Scrub is made in Italy, formulated with key ingredients that are rich in mineral salts. The scrub also contains minerals of different size for a rejuvenating and smoothing action. The large particles work with the thermal water to stimulate regeneration deep in your skin and the finer powders work to smooth skin and rough areas by removing dead cells. One of the key ingredients is water from the hot spring concession located in the municipality of Abana Terme (Padua). Scrub is designed to optimize skins elasticity for a more youthful appearance and combats visible signs of aging like dull-looking skin.

I enjoyed this scrub, it is fairly abrasive, so if you have sensitive skin I would not recommend this to you. I could feel large and small scrubbing particles in this scrub. The smell of this product is amazing, honestly it's one of the best smelling beauty products that I own. It has a very clean, light and fresh fragrance. I also really like the color of the product paired with the black packaging. The consistency of the scrub is fairly thick. This scrub left my skin feeling super soft and smooth. This is a product that I will continue to use probably at least once a week, no more than that though since it is abrasive. I did find that this worked great on my rough heels, two days after I used it my heels were still soft!

The only thing I didn't like about this scrub is, I kept waiting for a warming sensation, which never came. I figured since it has the word thermal in it's name that there would be some kind of warming sensation.

Overall I really liked this product. It can be purchased on HSN.com, you get 6.7oz of product for $25 You can use coupon code iFabbo5 to save $5 off your Perlier purchase from HSN.com
