AllAboutBeauty: The Body Shop Matte Bronzing Powder – one the best bronzer I’ve ever tried
Another popular The Body Shop make up product, a lightweight, pressed bronzing powder for a natural-looking matte and shine-free finish. It contains light diffusing particles to instantly brighten the complexion.
The bronzer goes on really nicely without a powdery effect. It’s really matte. I was really pleased as it gave a natural light bronzed look which is ideal for summer. It completely brightens the complexion and highlights the whole face and gives a lovely coverage for a bronzer specially for those who have fair skin like me. I think this bronzer is excellent! It just illuminates the whole face without looking orange or chalky and one the best bronzer I’ve ever tried.

AllAbooutBeauty: Favorite Bath and Shower Gels from Philosophy – u’ll fall in love too! i swear!
I must have inherited my craving for all things strawberry, chocolate and vanilla and the minute I spotted these 3-in one bubble bath, shampoo and body wash at Beauty Bar months ago! If you need something positively yummy at this very moment, I can’t imagine anything better than sinking into a bath full of strawberry/chocolate/ vanilla scented bubbles. Well at first, i had my doubts about a combination shampoo, body wash and bubble bath. It seems like shampoo and body wash should be two different products. I was wrong. This product left my fine straight hair in great condition, and my very dry skin well moisturized. And it smells terrific. Here are my Favorites:
Philosophy Strawberry Milkshake
an indulgent treat, strawberry milkshake shampoo, shower gel & bubble bath provides a moisturizing lather to gently cleanse and condition skin and hair. It smells like strawberry milk and it feels creamy and rich. Lathers really well. Smell doesn’t last long, but it definitely makes for a good sensory shower experience.
Double Chocolate Mint Chip Cookie
I am a chocolate addict and i just cant help myself falling in love with with product! i love all of philosophy’s bath products, but this is one of the best. the scent is deep and dessert-like, but doen’t linger on your skin after you towel off. double your holiday happiness with double chocolate mint chip cookie shampoo, shower gel & bubble baths 16 oz. feel the joy!
Vanilla Ice Cream
Philosophy brings the pure pleasure of a rich, creamy scoop of vanilla ice cream right to your shower with vanilla ice cream scented shampoo, shower gel & bubble bath. this ultra rich 3-in-1 formula cleanses and moisturizes to leave skin and hair feeling completely clean and soft PLUS, it gives a really mellow, creamy vanilla scent that really has that melting ice cream edge!. philosophy’s vanilla ice cream shampoo, shower gel & bubble bath smells heavenly and makes bath or shower time so much sweeter.
