Laura Mercier La Petite Patisserie Trio Almond Coconut Milk review

 in Beauty / Fragrance  tagged bath products / laura mercier / reviews / summer 2012 by

Laura Mercier has released a fabulous, limited edition travel set for the spring and summer seasons which offers a delicious, decadent, gourmand fragrance experience that is perfect for the warm weather. The “La Petite Patisserie Trio” in Coconut Almond Milk offers the ultimate collection of Laura Mercier’s Crème Body Wash, Soufflé Body Crème and Eau Gourmand in small, travel sized containers.

The fragrance trio offers the perfect products for layering fragrance. The Crème Body Wash allows the fragrance to settle into the skin during a shower while gently cleansing skin. After the shower, the Soufflé Body Crème can be applied on the body which gives the fragrance a long lasting, solid base for the day. After the body cream, the fragrance layer can be finished with a spray or two of the Eau Gourmand.

Fragrance notes: coconut, almond, milk, vanilla, heliotrope, musk

The limited edition, Laura Mercier “La Petite Patisserie Trio” in Coconut Almond Milk offers a light fragrance experience making the scent perfect for daily wear both indoors and outdoors. The coconut heart combined with the vanilla and musk base, make Coconut Almond Milk refreshing and perfect for warm days or after several hours in the sun.

Laura Mercier’s “La Petite Patisserie Trio” is priced at $45 and will be available through May or until supplies last. The set includes the 90ml Crème Body Wash, 85g Soufflé Body Crème and the 14.8ml Eau Gourmand which is an eau de toilette formula.

“La Petite Patisserie Trio” is available at Bloomingdale’s Stanford and LauraMercier.com
We give Laura Mercier’s “La Petite Patisserie Trio” in Coconut Almond Milk five out of five stars.

Kumani Essentials Shea Shower Moisturizing Face & Body Wash review

 in Beauty  tagged bath products / kumani / reviews by

Kumani Essentials is a fabulous new beauty company which creates all-natural body care, hair care and skin care products which are “Fair Trade Certified!” Love this! Kumani Essentials collection of 100% organic beauty products offer unisex skin care which promotes healthy, younger-looking skin with natural Shea butter and other ingredients.

Kumani Essentials products contain fair trade certified Shea butter along with aloe leaf juice, antioxidant-rich white tea extract, moisturizing jojoba oil, protective argon oil and additional natural ingredients.

The company was created by women, for women, but the products are unisex which is what makes Kumani Essentials extremely amazing. Shea Butter happens to be known as “Africans Women’s Gold” and it is hand-crafted by women who have been passing down the process for thousands of years through generations of women. Many times, harvesting Shea Butter is the only source of income for many of these women.
Kumani works diligently with Fair Trade US and the Western African nation of Burkina Faso in order to ensure they are meeting all guidelines of a certified fair trade cooperative. Kumani is able to pay the women top dollar for their Shea Butter product which ensures better nutrition, healthcare and education for the women and their families. Love this!

“At Kumani Essentials we pride ourselves on the fact that we have not only created a line of effective, high quality beauty products, but we also give back and support a deserving group of women.” –Deborah Pilla, Founder of Kumani Essentials.

I was fortunate enough to be given a sample of Kumani Essentials Shea Shower Moisturizing Face & Body Wash to try. The body wash has been absolutely amazing. As someone who swims and spends a lot of time outside, I need a body wash which is effective in removing chlorine and air pollutants while retaining moisture in the skin. Kumani’s product does the job and leaves my skin squeaky clean and moisturized. Love it!

Kumani Essentials Shea Shower Moisturizing Face & Body Wash received five out of five stars from Bay Area Fashionista 

Kumani Essentials Shea Shower Moisturizing Face & Body Wash is priced at $26. For more information about Kumani Essentials, please visit kumaniessentials.com
