La Mer 2009 Holiday Miracles – Information, Prices and Photos

Published on November 26, 2009 in Beauty. 6 Comments Tags: , , , , , , , .

Hello beauties!

After so many posts about  Holiday 2009 Makeup Collections I decided to write a different post. It’s also related to beauty but this time is not about the beauty reflected through our makeup but about our natural beauty. Makeup can hide some of our skin imperfections, can hide a sleepless night and make us look fresh and radiant trough the day.

Now I’m talking about the beauty of our complexion, when we look in the mirror without wearing any makeup. A beautiful skin means a moisturized skin and the way we treat our complexion, the products that we use and treatments that we make is all reflected in our skin natural beauty.

Review – Florena Hand Cream with Chamomile

Florena HandCream Review Florena Hand Cream with Chamomile

I like using creams, face creams, eye creams and hand creams but I become instantly lazy when it comes to body creams or body lotions. I guess I don’t have the patience to stay and apply them all over my body. With the hand creams is a little bit different. I used quite a lot of  hand cream back in the days when I had a job that made my hands dry and I needed to hydrating them very well. Back then I was using a normal cream with chamomile but I wished that I could turn back time and used Florena Hand Cream with Chamomile.

I have to admit that during the summer I don’t use so often my hand cream, but when the cold season starts my hands ask for it immediately. I’ve discovered this cream a few months ago and I still have half of it for the cold season (this is only because I bought it during the summer).

What I like:

  • The packaging. It’s a 100 ml tube ( 2 Eur or 3$ ) with a pink design and chamomile flowers ( the pink was what attracted me at first). When I reached for the cream and touch the plastic I was surprised to see that it has a soft texture (can you believe this, I’m talking about the plastic tube). Although the tube is not transparent if you put it in a strong light you can see the amount of product left inside.
  • The smell is very discreet and the chamomile flowers give the cream a pleasant, even calming fragrance.
  • The texture is soft, light and it quickly absorbed by the skin. It has no mineral and silicone oils, so is not oily. Only a little amount a product will hydrate your hands without leaving them oily.
  • The formula with proven chamomile relieves the stress from the sensitive hands.
  • Contains Glycerin and Pro-vitamin B5 that improve the moisture content of the skin and strengthened the fingernails in the same time.
  • After applying it your skin will become soft, supple and velvety. Continue reading ‘Review – Florena Hand Cream with Chamomile’
