MOR Lotion Set



Have you guys heard from MOR Cosmetics? I've only seen them sold at Ulta... or at least mine. The website says MOR is proudly Australian and recognised globally for its range of innovative, luxurious pampering body care and lifestyle products. The philosophy behind MOR is to provide a personalised sensory journey. We aim to awaken your senses, through creating a memorable pampering experience from the visual packaging to the product offerings.

When the Ulta near my house opened up, I discovered MOR and I literally fell in love with their lychee flower scented lotion. It has a sparkling sweet lychee flowers united with ripe Berries, soft powdery Florals and the slightest hint of Green Forest Woods. It's absolutely delicious. While I browsing Ulta the other day, I found this little hand lotion set in the clearance section and I just honestly could not pass it up.

It has Marshmallow which I thought was going to be a sweet scent, but ended up being the complete opposite. Their site says Vanilla Musk and Jasmine Flower that gloriously rapture in this pretty, feminine fragrance. Sugar dipped Rose petals with White Carnation and Cotton Candy play beautifully to create a deliciously sweet perfume.

Second up is Belladonna and the site describes it as Spring symphony of White Narcissus, Moroccan Rose and Pink Tulips enlivened with a sparkling mist of Meyer Lemon. Finally it is sweetened with a touch of French Cassis, Sandalwood, Vanilla and Musk to leave a trace of tender warmth.

I'm not really into the musky heavier scents so Marshmallow and Belladonna isn't exactly my favorite, but still wearable. The scent is very noticeable! Even after washing my hands a couple times, the Marshmallow scent was still very prominent. Each tube is only 50ml/1.7 fl oz and on their site, it retails for $12 each. I bought this set for $14.99, so definitely check out Ulta's clearance section. After checking out their website, they have even more delicious scents that I want to try out!

Peti' Colle Baby Hand Mask



Sorry for the short hiatus there. I recently went on vacation for my husband's block leave and just got back a couple weeks ago. It's really great to be back home, getting back into a routine, but I really miss all the delicious food and shopping at my fingertips. Jenny is currently away on her Europe vacation and won't be back til August, so for now, you're just stuck with me!

While on vacation, my husband and I hit up Mitsuwa, mainly because I wanted to look at their beauty products. Masks of any kind, whether it's face, hand, feet seems to be very popular and depending on where you go, it can be very cheap. At Mitsuwa, majority of their products are imported from Japan and they are not cheap whatsoever! I came across these Peti' Colle Baby hand mask mainly because the packaging was so pretty. We use our hands for everything and I wash my hands a lot which means they are constantly dry and during those bitter winter months, they become even more dry and sometimes chapped and flaky. I believe this hand mask was about $5 which is pretty expensive considering I bought 2 in hopes of them working.

One side has pink clear gloves, like the ones food industries use and the other side has a cloth glove drenched in the solution. The scent is a little herbal, but nothing too funky. You just put on the cloth glove and top it with the pink glove and sit for 10 minutes or so. Since the instructions were in Japanese, I wasn't sure if you were suppose to wash your hands after, but I gave it a quick rinse. My hands felt AMAZING afterwards! I think next time I'm going to exfoliate beforehand then use the hand mask. Sadly, my hands are now back to normal... dry dry dry.

XOXO Yen
