lavanila body butter review

Pictured: body butter c/o LaVanila. Review of LaVanila Body Butter in fresh vanilla lemon

One of my favorite perfumes is LaVanila. When I found out they also made a body butter, I was thrilled! The fabulous thing about LaVanila’s products isn’t just the amazing scent offerings, it is the fact that their products are made from organic ingredients, and not harsh chemicals. Love that!

As a Mother of three, I care a little bit about what I put on my skin, but it is the skin of my children I care A LOT about. This means that I need to be extra careful with their skin since they are young, and what I do to their skin now will last a lifetime.

Summer is upon us, and living in Northern California means my kids will have plenty of outdoor time now, and throughout the summer months. Their skin will take a beating from sun, sticky sunblocks, chlorinated pools, the beach, and more. After they take a bath or shower, I want to be able to nourish their skin, and mine, with something free of harsh chemicals, and made from organic ingredients. I am so happy to be able to use LaVanila Body Butter on their skin!

Not only is the LaVanila Body Butter made from organic ingredients free of harsh chemicals, it actually works to hydrate skin; love that! We all end up with well-nourished skin after using it; especially after a day in the sun or the pool when our skin gets visibly dry.

I am quickly going through my LaVanila Body Butter in fresh vanilla lemon, so when I replace it, I want to try out one of the other scents. They all sound so good! I think vanilla coconut is calling my name to try next; doesn’t it sound perfect for summer!!

You can find LaVanila Body Butter online here. Which scent do you plan to get?

lavanilla vanilla roller bal review

LaVanila has quickly become one of my favorite fragrance lines. As a vanilla junkie, I love anything with vanilla in it. Of course, LaVanila is my favorite way to wear vanilla since their fragrances are made from natural ingredients.

This year, I tried LaVanila’s Vanilla Coconut and Vanilla Grapefruit, and fell in love with both of them. Surprisingly, I had not tried LaVanila’s Pure Vanilla yet. I was thrilled to have the opportunity to test out the LaVanila Pure Vanilla roller ball; especially since I have never tried a roller ball fragrance before!

LaVanila Pure Vanilla roller ball is a great way to wear vanilla. In addition to offering a rich, fresh, and long lasting vanilla fragrance experience, the roller ball makes the application easy, and mess-free. Love that!

The roller ball will also come in handy for air travel since it meets TSA requirements for size. It also fits nicely in a handbag, or desk drawer for keeping at the office.

The LaVanila Pure Vanilla roller ball combines fragrance notes of Madagascar Vanilla, Tonka Bean, Freesia, and Heliotrope. The overall fragrance experience is warm and cozy; perfect for moderate to cool weather. Pure Vanilla by LaVanila offers a medium scent, so it is easy to wear in tight quarters such as the theater, or office.

The LaVanila Pure Vanilla roller ball can be found online here.

LaVanila Vanilla Grapefruit EDP review

lavanilla vanilla grapefruit edp reviewPictured: c/o LaVanila Vanilla Grapefruit eau de parfum

One of my favorite fragrance notes is vanilla. So, when I first heard of LaVanila fragrances, I immediately purchased and reviewed their beautiful Vanilla Coconut fragrance for summer. After falling in love with Vanilla Coconut, I was hooked on the entire collection and had to try LaVanila Vanilla Grapefruit!

Vanilla Grapefruit is my second fragrance from the LaVanila collection. It has a beautiful fruity gourmand scent which is both refreshingly crisp, and warm. Love that!

LaVanila Vanilla Grapefruit eau de parfum offers a fruity gourmand combination of fragrance notes including Pink Grapefruit, Lime, Bergamot, Orange, Cedarwood, and Madagascar Vanilla.

This beautiful fragrance offers a warm base of Madagascar Vanilla which offers complex fruit layers on an unique blend of pure essential oils. LaVanila is one of the world’s first healthy fragrances; infusing natural technology from organic sugar cane alcohol; and skin-saving botanicals and antioxidants for a modern twist on the classic art of perfumery. Love!

I love the idea of natural perfume. Not only is the scent pure, real, and not from a lab, it does not leave potentially harmful chemicals on your skin which could be absorbed into your system.

LaVanila Vanilla Grapefruit edp is long lasting. The fragrance started off with a fruity zing laced in vanilla. As the day wore on, the vanilla lay softly in the background as different fruit notes cycled through detection. At the end of the day, there was a slight fruit scent laced in a woody vanilla base. Perfect fragrance experience for any weather; warm or cold. Love that!

LaVanila Vanilla Grapefruit edp rates five out of five stars!

LaVanila has a wide range of fragrance products which carry it’s fragrances; complimenting the eau de parfum collection. The collection includes deodorant, roller balls, and body butter.
