Review: Olivellla Woman Eau De Toilette Natural Spray


Hi girls! So, have any of you ever heard of an olive oil fragrance? I bet some of you are thinking right now that it would stink like hell. Well, that’s not how the Olivella Woman Eau De Toilette Natural Spray smells like. I apologize, but currently I don’t know the retail price of it. I will have a link in the sidebar where you can go and check whenever their site is back up and working. I truly apologize for any inconvenience. Well, stick around if you want to read what I thought about this product!


Scent Description: It’s an amazing citrusy bend of lemon, limes, and olives. It doesn’t smell bad because of the olives and I think it gives the scent its own edge.


Packaging: This fragrance comes boxed in a matte black box with the company’s name on it. The bottle itself is a square frosted glass bottle. It houses 1.69 fl oz. of product.

Wear time: I wore on me for about 7 hours even after I washed my hands 5 times.

Overall review: I’m really impressed with this perfume. It’s a great scent for citrus lovers and for people who doesn’t like reapplying their perfume. I would suggest this for the daytime for women above the age of 30 because I think that this scent has a mature edge to it. My mom loves wearing it and the women at her book blub always ask her what she’s wearing. It exceeded my expectations because I thought this as going to fade away quickly but surprisingly it didn’t. Thanks for reading and enjoy!

Recommendation: I think it’s great for people who love citrusy scents like lemons and limes, but with an olive twist!

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!

Review: Olivella All Natural Virgin Olive Oil Moisturizer



Hey girls! Today feels like it’s taking forever. First I went to the Post Office and then I went grocery shopping. Well, I don’t want to bore you with my boring day so let’s get on with today’s first review. I will be reviewing the Olivella All Natural Virgin Oil Moisturizer. It comes in a glass pump bottle with 1.69 fl oz. of product for $21. It’s multi-purpose oil that’s supposed to acts as moisturizing oil for the entire body. Keep reading to find out whether it’s worth buying or not!



Pro(s):
-It moisturizes my elbows and didn’t make me break out when I used this on my face.
-It’s great to apply in your hair before you wash it for extra conditioning in a dry scalp.
-Its great to use as a night time moisturizer since all the oil will sink in and the anti-aging properties of it will go to work.
-One bottle will last you a long time and this doesn’t smell odd!
-It's paraben free (paraben was found in cancer patients).

Con(s):
-I think you can live with using normal olive oil.

Overall review: I think that this is a product for people who can afford it. If you think that you really need it then get it, but if you can just buy extra virgin olive oil in your grocery store, then this isn’t worth buying. If you cannot afford to shell out $21 for an ounce or two of oil, then don’t get this. I think that people who mainly buy high end products might find it in their price range. For me thought, I don’t think I would repurchase it since I have more than enough olive oil in my house. Well, thanks to Shelly for requesting this review and I hope all of you enjoyed!

Rating: 9.5/10

Is it recommended by Vicky? : If you’re a girl on a budget, opt out for normal olive oil instead!

Review: Olivella Daily Facial Cleasning Tissues


Hey girls! Today I’ll be reviewing the Olivella Daily Facial Cleansing Tissues. Basically they’re wipes to clean your face. You get 30 sheets for $7.50. You can buy them at olivellausa.com. Keep reading to see my thoughts on this product!

Pro(s):
-Cleanses, tones, and moisturizes the face really well!
-Doesn’t leave skin feeling tight.
-The ingredients in the wipes have anti-ageing properties since there is olive oil in them.

Con(s):
-None found while the testing of this product was conducted!

Overall review: You would normally use these for makeup removing because that’s what people use facial cleansing wipes for, but you really won’t be able to remove any makeup with this stuff. It’s just for those mornings or nights when you don’t have any makeup on, but you’re too lazy to wash, tone, and moisturize your face. This one sheet does all of that for you. I used it a couple of morning when I woke up a bit late on purpose so I could test these out. I ran the wipe all over my face and neck and then I rinse my face with water. I felt refreshed and I didn’t use a moisturizer that day and I’ve got to tell you that my makeup felt better on my face without silicone and moisturizer on it. I hope all of you enjoy my review on this product!

Rating: 10/10 :)

Is it recommended by Vicky? : Of course, but strictly for cleansing the face!

Review: Olivella Body Lotion 100% Natural Olive Oil


Hey girls! Today I’ll be reviewing the Olivella Body Lotion made from 100% natural olive oil. So now you’re thinking, wait a minute this might be excessively greasy, but keep reading to see that’s it isn’t! You can buy this online at OlivellaUSA.com. It retails for $16 for 200mL. They also have a large pump size that has 500mL of product. Keep reading to know my opinion on this!

Pro(s):
-Very moisturizing and non-greasy.
-Good for all seasons and light fragrance.
-Not too thick or thin in consistency.

Con(s):
-Might be a bit pricey.

Overall review: I really like this product to death! It has anti-aging properties since it has olive oil in it. I don’t know if people might want to shell out $16 for a body lotion, but its super moisturizing and it doesn’t clog pores. It works best after showering and it conditions my skin nicely. I actually have really dry skin all year long and this helps with the flakiness and rough spots a lot. Thanks to Melina for requesting this review and I hope all of my other wonderful readers enjoy and thanks so much for your support!

Rating: 9/10 The price might set back some people as well as its availability.

Is it recommended by Vicky? : Yup, I plan on repurchasing it soon!
