NEW IN | THE BODY SHOP SPECIAL EDITION JASMINE GIFTS
Soweto, South Africa
I received the Winter Jasmine Body Hamper during Christmas
and I'm about to open and use it, before I do that I thought that I should go
ahead and share with you some of the claims and scents.
The Claims
With notes of orange flower, fresh jasmine and rose petals, it’s the aroma of nature thriving in wintertime. Just take in that crisp air as you hang the Christmas wreath on your front door. And feel the snow crunching under your boots.
Say hello to smoother skin this Christmas with our special edition Winter Jasmine Body Scrub.
Scrub up from head-to-toe and buff that beautiful body to silky-softness with our gentle exfoliator. Take in that festive, refreshingly crisp scent. Made with jasmine extract from India, Community Fair Trade Brazil nut oil from Peru and exfoliating sugar crystals,
it’ll leave you feeling smooth and smelling sensational.
This floral treat is the perfect little Christmas gift or stocking filler.

This year has just gone by really quickly or slowly depending on who's answering
but one thing we know for sure is that it was out of this world so
the second week of November I had to take out the Christmas Tree and set it up
because you know for the "happiness" it hopefully brings.
We bought the Christmas tree 2013 December in what would be our mothers last Christmas with us
and you know other than crying this time, I'm just glad the tree is still good
and bringing us joy now with my daughter.
Wow I just described a (circle of life) moment.
Christmas is a time for family laughter and joy, so this year I'm planning
to be selfish and give myself that.

A what's in my Christmas Tree post will be up in a few days.
See you soon.

OPENING PR FROM INGRAMS | NEW SENSITIVE, ROOIBOS AND HEMP RANGE
Soweto, South Africa
Hope your day is going well. The word is out Ingrams has a new range in town,
todays post is all about unboxing their pr drop and also sharing some
of the product claims with you.
What is Ingrams saying about the product?
Not everyone’s skin is the same, the one-size-fits-all solution is a thing of the past. Whether your
skin is dry, normal or sensitive, everyone needs skincare products suited to the skin they’re in. That’s
where Ingram’s comes in. They have extended their range of functional creams and lotions to
include three new innovative, practical, affordable and on-trend variants – Sensitive, Hemp and
Rooibos.
The functions:
Ingram’s Sensitive cream and lotion:
:are enriched with moisturising glycerine and cetomacrogol.
Sensitive skin is more common than most people think, in fact over 40% of the world’s population
report that they have sensitive skin. Sensitive skin is prone to itching and irritation and needs gentle
care. People with sensitive skin, may have strong reactions to chemicals, dyes and fragrances
present in products that come into contact with the skin. Ingram’s Sensitive cream and lotion are
fragrance- and colourant-free, while soothing and offering immediate relief and moisturisation to
irritated, sensitive skin. The cream and lotion are non-greasy, fast absorbing and leaves skin calmed
and moisturised for 48 hours.
Ingram’s Hemp Oil cream and lotion:
have intensively nourishing formulations, enriched with a
blend of omega 3 and 6 and organic hemp seed oil, which is extracted from organic hemp seeds
through cold pressing and filtration. This unique formulation nourishes, soothes and repairs dry to
very dry skin while instantly moisturising it. The cream and lotion are non-greasy, fast absorbing and
leaves skin deeply moisturised for 72 hours.
Ingram’s Rooibos cream and lotion:
have rich, restoring formulations, enriched with a special blend
of locally sourced rooibos extract, antioxidants and vitamin E. Rooibos contains unique antioxidants,
enzymes and compounds that improve elasticity and help skin look youthful and radiant. The fast
absorbing, non-greasy cream is formulated to deliver 72-hour moisturisation while the fast
absorbing, non-greasy lotion provides 48-hour moisturisation.
Ingram’s brand manager, Venus-Gene Jackson says "Ingram’s aims to evolve with their customers and with the latesttrends. “We want to ensure that Ingram’s continues to bring all South Africans natural, nourishingskincare that is both affordable and innovative.”
The three new variants complement the existing
Camphor, Moisture Plus, Tissue Oil and Men’sranges.
Final words:
I've seen an american vlogger using a product similar to the Ingrams Hemp lotion,
but it was ridiculously expensive
and let's not get started with the shipping headache. The Ingram’s Hemp Lotion is one
that I'm gravitating towards because it smells great, feels good to the skin and it is cost friendly
my baby will then use the Sensitive Lotion because of it's fragrance free benefit
and the Rooibos Cream will be for the family (p.s.we are big on rooibos).
I will continue using the products and will share with you my
final thoughts on a Favs & Not post coming soon.
