Review: Olivella Hand Cream

Hey girls! So, I don’t think that dry hands are a concern in the summer, but for the upcoming fall season, they’re definitely a concern. Who wants rough, flaky, and ashy hand? I know I don’t. That’s why I have an awesome review for you today on the Olivella Hand Cream. It contains 100% virgin olive oil so it’s great for a moisture boost. It retails for a mere $10.50 on their site. Keep reading for my thoughts on this product!


Pro(s):
-Very moisturizing and since the olive oil has anti-aging properties, it’s great for older people.
-Its hypoallergenic and not tested on animals.
-It’s not too expensive.

Con(s):
-I think some people may not like the scent of olive oil.

Overall review: I think that this is great for older people with aged hands. I had my grandfather use this a couple of times and I’ve got to say that his hands looked better to me at least. Wrinkles are caused by a lack of moisture in the skin and this moisturizer has more than enough moisture without a greasy feeling. Since olive oil has anti-aging properties, it’s great for matured people. I do have to say though that some people might not find the scent rather pleasant. I didn’t have a problem with it since my dad always uses olive oil in his cooking and so do I so I’m used to the smell, but people who aren’t use to it might feel disturbed by it. Well, I hope all of you enjoyed and please email me if you have more requests!

Rating: 9.5/10

Is it recommended by Vicky? : Yup, it’s worth the $10!

Mini-Reviews: Honeycat Cosmetics Products

Hey girls! So, I come to you today with my series of mini-reviews. I had some Honeycat Cosmetics’ products for a while now that I wanted to share the quality and everything with you, but was too lazy to make different posts about. So today, I’m targeting all of those products and reviewing every product. Their retail values will all be in their reviews so look out for that and the link to purchase the items will be in the sidebar. Thanks again for reading!

My review (by product):
-Rub My Tummy, Milk and Honey Hand and Body Cream: This retails for $12 for 6 oz and comes housed in a medium sized tub. It’s very thin in consistency, absorbs quickly, and eaves your hands feeling hydrated, soft, smooth, and smelling sweet like honey mainly. I have no complaints about it and I think it’s worth the $12.



-Chick of the Sea Foaming Bath Crystals: These come in a tin (like the tins that anchovies or sardines come in) and retails for $10. It’s supposed to be one time use, but I’ve saved it up and used it in 2 separate baths. They foam up really nicely in warm water and contain essential oils that leave my skin feeling soft and moisturized. I just wish that for the price, they gave more product.



-Whisker Slicker I’m in Heat Lip Balm: This lip balm comes in a chap stick-like container and retails for $6. It smells like cinnamon and tastes sweet. It really moisturizes your lips since they’re so much vitamin E in it. It feels warm and sort of tingling on your lips when you first apply, but it eventually subsides. I think that this is by far the best product I’ve ever tried by them!



-Frisky Kitty Bath Time Fizzy (bath bombs): One bath bomb is $10 and they have four different scents from oatmeal to rose and lemongrass. You are supposed to use on bath bomb per bath, but I cut it in half and I get two uses out of it. It has lots of essential oil and smells great so it moisturizes while giving you a calming spa experience.

Would I recommend any of these? : Well, my personal faves are the lip balm and the bath bomb so think about investing in them!

Review: new Bodycology Hand and Body Lotion

So girls, don’t all of you think that you won’t need a moisturizer in the summer since your skin already produces so much oil? Well what you don’t know is that being out in the sun evaporates all the moisture from your skin. For times like these, I love using Bodycology’s Hand and Body Lotion. It’s available in 10 scents for different noses and will only cost you $4.99. The entire Bodycology line ranges from $.99 to $4.99 so it’s a really affordable line. You can find this on their site as well as other retailers. Keep reading to see my thoughts on this product!

Pro(s):
-Very affordable since it will only set you back $4.99.
-Very moisturizing and the scent will last a god 3-4 hours.
-Its feels lightweight and non-greasy.

Con(s):
-I wish it had some SPF!

Overall review: This moisturizer is great for the summer since its lightweight and doesn’t feel greasy or oily. That’s one of my pet peeves when a lotion is oily and feels slick. I just hate that, but thankfully this isn’t like that. The scent I have is in Vanilla Cupcake and it smells exactly like it. I love sweet scents as I might have said in a previous review so I love this. I think that if this company came out with more products then it will be better than Bath & Body Works. Thanks to Jamie for requesting this review and I hope all of my viewers enjoyed this!

Rating: 10/10 :)

Is it recommended by Vicky? : Yes, especially since its so affordable and high quality!

Review: Embyolisse Lait-Creme Concentre

Hey girls! Sorry for being MIA. Actually I had to go to a huge wedding to go to where I was the makeup artist. It was actually an extended family because the brides grandmother had like 4 brothers and 6 sisters and I had to do makeup for the brides second, third, and fourth cousins as well as aunts and uncles. Well, today I’m reviewing an important product I used at the wedding. It’s called the Embryolisse Lait-Crème Concentre. It’s basically an all over cream that you can apply to the body, hands, or face. It retails off of the Embryolisse website and it ranges anywhere from $14-$25 depending on what size you purchase. They have a 1 oz. size and a 2n6 oz. size. What is claims to do on the site is to prime, moisturize, and makeup remover. It also claims to reduce irritation after shaving. Keep reading to see if these claims are true!



Pro(s):
-It’s good to use as a primers and moisturizer because it sinks in easily and doesn’t leave a greasy feel.
-Moisturizes really well and leaves face feeling soft since its consistency is really thin.
-When used for makeup remover, it leaves the skin hydrated feeling (kind of like when you use Lancôme’s makeup remover).

Con(s):
-It irritates my armpits when I used it to reduce irritation after shaving.
-The fragrance might annoy and cause irritation to people.



Overall review: It’s good to purchase if you want a 3-in-1 product. It primes nicely because it leaves my skin very soft and hydrated and my foundation glides on easily. While priming it moisturizes and as a makeup remover, you don’t need much of it to remove heavy duty eye shadow and eyeliner. It might be hard to remove waterproof mascara but my Lash blast Waterproof came off. For the most part, it's a good staple to have in your makeup bag. Thanks to Nanina for requesting this review. I hope all of you enjoyed!

Review: Olavie Chardonnay Wine Therapy Antioxidant Hand Cream

Hey girls! Today I’ll be reviewing the Olavie Chardonnay Wine Therapy Antioxidant Hand Cream. Its retail price is unknown and I believe you can purchase it from olavie.com. This product will last for about 12 months after you first open it. It has grape seed extract which prevents aging of the hands and you’re probably thinking “WHAT, MY HANDS CAN AGE”. Well, yes they can. One of my father’s arms has aged because the sun keeps on continuously hitting it when he drives. It’s definitely darker and a bit wrinkled. Keep reading to see why I’m absolutely obsessed with this product!

Pro(s):
-This keeps your hands from aging since it has grape seed extract in it as well as antioxidants from wine.
-The moisture from this hand cream lasts very long and actually improves the moisture level in my hands.
-A little bit goes a long way.

Con(s):
-None found!

Overall review: This is the best product I’ve ever used. Lately that’s how I’m describing a lot of the product I’m reviewing, but that is only because I really love these products. You only need half of a pea sized amount to do both of your hands so not matter that the rice is, you definitely will be able to afford it. I don’t think the scent will bother anybody. I hope everybody enjoys this review and always keep requesting!

Rating: 10/10 :)

Is it VICKY approved? : Yes, I would recommend this to anyone with dry hands.
