More scents from OHWTO (One Hand Washes the Other)

So I made a new OHWTO (One hand washes the other @Etsy) order immediaty after receiving my first :D The shipping was fast, I got this in 10 days. I got full size on Cranberries and following scent samples:

Tein siis välittömästi uuden OHWTO (One hand washes the Other)-tilauksen :D Postitus oli nopea, 10 päivää. Ostin täysikokoisen Cranberries-tuoksusta ja nyt myös seuraavat tuoksunäytteet:




Pomegranate: Lovely sweet scent, I'll get soap with this later and I love this as a perfume. It smells of bubblegum to me, a delicious bubblegum! Makea, ihana tuoksu. Tulee joku purkka mieleen :D

"Delicious fruity scent of ripe Pomegranates."

Mango Brulee: a burnt caramel-mango-vanilla scent, far too sweet for me as a perfume, but I think I'd still like this as a soap. Tämä on makea, huh. Poltettu karamelli-mango-vanilja, saatan silti tykätä saippuassa mutta tuoksuöljynä tekee pahaa.

"Nearly over-ripe mangoes, sliced and layered inside of a warm vanilla custard topped with a caramelized shell."

Vanilla Bean: Lovely, quite basic vanilla. I like this as a perfume but I'd love get a soap with this scent too! Ihana perusvanilja, öljynä kiva ja saippuana pakko saada :D

"A dry, powdery vanilla scent, this one is less sweet and buttery than my other vanilla scent."

Peach nectar: "thebodyshoptype" peach, I like this a lot. I usually find peach scent too sweet but this was nice. "thebodyshop-tyyppinen" persikka, pidän paljon. Yleensä persikka-tuoksut ovat liian makeita minulle mutta tämä on hyvä.

"this is not the overripe fake smelling peach that most peach-scented products use; this is a true-to-life peach skin and flesh scent, tart and sweet, without being sickeningly sweet."

Absynthe: Fresh, smells of anis and citrus. I think I'll like this in soap :) Maybe anis is not my favorites in perfumes in general. Raikas anis- & sitrustuoksu, varmaan saippuana oikein kiva. En ole tosiaan suurin aniksentuoksun ystävä :)

" A 100% essential oils blend, this is my interpretation of Absinthe, made to be both wearable AND edible. That's right, I'll be putting this in lip balms as well as soaps and perfumes. It's an Anise-Peppermint-Lemongrass blend brightened with a few drops of red Blood Orange. It's definitely an anise-based scent, there's no doubt about that, but it's balanced by the mint and citrus scents so that even people who detest licorice-scented things might still be able to enjoy this. And of course, any fan of black licorice will most likely fall fast in love with this scent/flavor."

Viva la Juicy: Oh, nice :D Hard to describe, it's fresh, sweet, floral... Interesting scent, me likey! Hauska tuoksu! Vaikea kuvata, tässä on paljon kaikenlaista: raikas, kukkainen, makea...

" After reading the descriptions of what this boutique fragrance duplicate smells like, I HAD to get it for my shop. It's fruity and floral, with the two balanced very nicely. You'll smell wild berries and mandarins, honeysuckle, gardenia, and jasmine, complimented nicely by notes of amber, vanilla, sandalwood, and praline. It sounds like there's a lot going on in this one, and there is- it reminds me of Pink Lady, in that it smells a little different every time you sniff it. This one is definitely a fun fragrance to wear."

China Rain: Fresh, like perfumes called "rain" usually are :) Raikas, kuten "sadetuoksut" yleensäkin.

"This is a light, sweet floral scent that is rounded out with notes of melon and cucumber. A floral that will appeal to all types of tastes, China Rain's sweeter fruit notes are supported with bottom notes of musk and sweet amber."

Sun+sand: This is not bad but I don't find it that interesting either. It's ok :) Ei paha mutta ei kovin kiinnostavakaan. Ihan ok mutta mitäänsanomaton minulle :)

" it's very similar to a scent I already have, "Beach". Sun and Sand is less floral, not that Beach is all that floral in the first place, but there's a hint of perfumey things in Beach that isn't in Sun and Sand. This is another scent that smells like a day at the beach, brought in as a special request, and now offered to all of you :)"

I don't need any soaps just now, but I'll definitely buy more later! My favorite scents are Vanillime, Cranberry, Pomegranate, Vanilla bean, Viva la Juicy & Peach nectar.

Yhtään saippuaa en nyt tarvitse mutta myöhemmin hankin toki lisää! Lempituoksuni ovat Vanillime, Cranberry, pomegranate, vanilla Bean, Viva la Juicy ja Peach nectar.

  1. Taidan tietää, mistä hankin seuraavat saippuat :) Tuo pomegranate-tuoksu kuulostaa aivan ihanalta!

  2. Viva La Juicy on namppa! Ginger Ale on tällä hetkellä käytössä, tuoksuu ihan yhdeltä luomuinkiväärioluelta, jota tykkään hörppiä :) Muista suosikkeja on Twigs&Berries, Calaveras ja Black Tea.

  3. Tahma: Suosittelen :D

    saila: Ihania tuoksuja kyllä! Pitää ensi kuussa tilata vähän lisää saippuoita. Aika laatikollinen jo löytyykin mutta on vain niin kiva valita sieltä uusi vanhan loputtua :D

Silk Naturals mini-review, lip gloss swatches & EOTD with Charmed

I've been a customer of Silk Naturals nearly two years and the cs has always been excellent. The owner of the company is Karen and she always nice & helpful. My favorites from this company are lip glosses! Silk Naturals has both sheer and more opaque ones, my favorites are very natural ones like: Olen ollut Silk Naturals in asiakas jo lähes 2 vuotta ja asiakaspalvelu firmassa pelaa erittäin hyvin. Firman omistaa Karen, jonka mies on muuten suomalainen ;) Karen on aina vastaillut nopeasti kyselyihini. Omat suosikkini firmalta ovat huulikiillot. Näitä löytyy sekä läpikuultavia että peittävämpiä, suosikkini ovat luonnolliset sävyt kuten: 1. Foreplay (shimmery golden pink) 2. Berry Crush (golden berry, MAC Viva glam V clone) 3. Divine. Oh, my favorite and I couldn't find it from SN website :-O Eek! 4. Darling (peachie pink) These glosses are in slim tubes, I'll try lip gloss wands asap ;) I also liked solid frangrances a lot (Raspberry gingerale & Sexy Vanilla) but may...

shopping in Germany: Alverde & Alterra

Ok, I was in Germany like... in April ;) Well, I bought a lot of Alverde products from DM, the quality is excellent and the prices are VERY affordable! Just a few words about the products and a question. I LOVE Alverde shampoos & conditioners. Most of these products haven't been eco certiified before but I noticed that the Avocado series is now Natrue certified :-O Unfortunately it's not as good as it used to be... Not terrible but not great either, definitely not the product I expected it to be. Yes I know, it's certified now ;) Do you know if Alverde is planning to reformulate all of the shampoos and conditioners? If so, my suitcase will be much lighter in the future. Alverde body butter is THE BEST :D I also like the body lotions. Cranberry hand cream smells SO good... This time I tested some Alterra products from Rossmann too, I must say that I also like these a lot! I tested shampoos, hair conditioner, body lotion, hand cream etc. Just the eye makeup remov...

Mineralissima mineral makeup review

I got some products from Minerallisima for review purpose and for a giveaway :D I have so much mineral makeup that I REALLY can't buy anything anymore so it was great to test a new brand! Mineralissima's website is pleasant to browse and everything seemed very professional. Prices are affordable and so is the shipping. You can also get customer service in Finnish in this company :D And in many other lanquages as well. LOL Tästä postauksesta olisi tullut erittäin sekava kahdella kielellä, joten tällä kertaa vain englanniksi. Hyvä uutinen on se, että Mineralissiman sivut ovat myös suomeksi (ja ei todellakaan google translatella käännetyt ;D). Myös asiakaspalvelua saa Suomeksi! Sivut ovat mukavat selailla ja tuotteet myös todella laadukkaan oloiset. Voin suositella ja tilaan myöhemmin täältä lisääkin testattavaa/ täysikokoisia tuotteita :) Mineralissima foundation 1.2 gives medium (to heavy) coverage on my skin. The color is light (peachy) neutral. I love this foundation...
