L'Occitane - Lait de Roses harvest travel/trial set

I AM SO ANGRY FOR THIS IS THE 2ND TIME I WRITE THIS POST!!! I TYPED HALF WAY AND IT JUST DISAPPEAR FOR GODSAKE WHEN I RETURN FROM PREVIEW!!! STUPID BLOGGER COMPANY!!! @_@


Well, back to topic :P

I am so into ROSE scent recently as maybe it's due to the Pisces in me acting up... Pisces is such a dreamer and loves anything and everything that are involve with creating romances....

The Lait de Roses travel set is not easy to find as out of 4 L'Occitane branches only Vivocity branch carries it!! The set consists of the brown pouch, shower gel, body milk, solid perfume (non-alcohol) and Lip glow (lip gloss in pot). The travel set with pouch cost SGD$65.70. The UNIQUE and HEAVENLY scent of Lait de Roses range is created by using 4 wonderful types of roses namely Grasses rose, Bulgarian rose, Moroccan rose and Turkish rose. If you love rose scent, I would recommend you to get this and am confident that you will fall in love with Lait de Roses! (^_^)

Here's the legendary set:


The Lait de Roses travel set!!! (O_O)


The brown pouch:


The versatile brown pouch!!

This brown pouch comes in handy nowadays as it carries all my daily essential like my hand cream and lip balm when I am out traveling :) This is my fave pouch for now!! It has a nice canvas texture with shea butter fruit print. Shea butter is one of the key products from L'Occitane. (^_^)


The Lait de Rose Shower gel (75ml):


Picture taken from www.loccitane.com


Rosy scent filled my Bath! (^_^)

The bottle of the shower gel and body milk have a very nice bronze gold cap but I couldn't bring out the beauty with my camera... *roll eyes* (@_@) Please see the picture taken from their website :)

The Lait de Roses shower gel truly live up to its name as it fill my bathroom with such a nice rose scent I can't bear to leave my bathroom after my shower :P Sadly, the nice rose scent did not stay on my skin for more than 20 minutes after my shower. It does not gives alot of foam but the scent covers up all this little flaws :)
Rating: 7/10. Hmmm... I may get the full-size if I am craving for more rose scent....


The Lait de Roses Body Milk (75ml):


More ROSE please!!! *shout* (>_<)

After the first application, I know I gonna stock-up for this body lotion! The body lotion promises to be nourishing as it is rich with the goodness from the infamous grapeseed oil :) It is quickly absorb into my skin without leaving behind an oily or sticky feeling that I hate from most of the body or hand lotion. I gives credit for this non-sticky feeling! (^_^)
Rating: 8/10... Will get more after I finish this small travel bottle! Love it to the core!


The Lait de Roses Solid Perfume (10ml):


Picture taken from www.loccitane.com


The non-alcohol goodness from Nature!!! (^_^)

This is my favourite from the travel set!!! All the delicacy of the Eau des 4 Reines captured in an alcohol-free solid perfume, for discreet fragrance touch-ups throughout the day. To be apply on pulse points and behind the ears. This is made from the natural beewax!!! The rose scent lingers around for an hour, so carrying it around will be good in order to touch-up :P
Rating: 8/10. I have got 2 now, including this from the Lait de Roses Travel set! You can see how I adore this solid perfume :P


The Lip glow in Rose, Rose Bonbon:


Picture taken from www.loccitane.com


The cute packaging Rose Bonbon (^_^)

Love at first sight for the cutesy glass pot!! Potted perfection--like rose-scented candy for the lips. All the nourishing benefits of a vitamin-enriched lip balm are gathered in a high-style, high-shine gloss. The pink tinted gloss did not show up well on my lips! A soft shimmering glow is left on the lips once applied. Credit has to go to the vitamins ingredient for this lippy (O_o)
Rating:7/10... Cutesy lip pot!


Hope you can feel rosy rosy after the reviews :P

Smell like a ROSE (*^_^*)

Skin Food/Love Love L'Occitane (1st purchase) - 28th October 2006

Shopping on 28th October 2006 (^_^)

Heres's the damage:

1) SKIN FOOD

I bought from SKIN FOOD (A Korean brand) 5 pairs of CARROT COLLAGEN JELLY EYE MASKS. This product is expectionally good for my DARK EYE CIRCLES!!! I love the jelly texture!!! I use this once a week... hmm... used 4 pairs.... so need to replenish... *grin*

Taken from Webby www.theskinfood.com



This is how it looks like on my eye (o_0)

SKIN FOOD products are quite affordable for many! Prices range from SGD$1.90 to about SGD50 :P


2) L'Occitane (1st purchase)

This is a brand not new to me... I remember that when I was flying around I happened to come across many cabin crews who are fans of L'Occitane (^_^) It is a must visit store other than LOUIS VUITTON or Chanel Boutiques *roll eyes* when SQ touch-down at Paris station (place of origin) :P Then, I was not a fan... The only impression is "Wow, so nice scent!!" that's all!!! Can't believe I am a fan myself after I left flying :P

Simple introduction of L'Occitane (Taken from www.loccitane.com):

L’OCCITANE is a unique brand focusing on the well-being of women and men alike. It seeks to create harmony which links the pleasure of the senses with inner balance. The products range from personal care lines to home fragrances. All are manufactured in the time-honored traditional way using fine natural ingredients, primarily from Provence.

The company was founded by Olivier Baussan in the south of France in 1976. The first shop and mail order service was opened in Volx, France, in 1980. The current factory in Manosque was established in response to an ever-growing distribution network. In the mid to late 1990s; subsidiaries were opened in the U.S., Hong Kong and the U.K.

A true story: L’OCCITANE is true to itself and its founding principles. Authenticity and effective natural products designed to procure true well-being. True stories behind the development of our products. And true pleasure in their use.

I fond of this brand because it uses natural products, not all chemical at least!! I belong to the group that fall in love with brands that use natural products and the best if the brand can offer preservatives-free &/or fragance-free products (^_^)

Well, here are the pictures of my 1st L'Occitane Haul!!!


1st Haul of L'Occitane - 28th October 2006 (Saturday) from City Link Mall :P

O.P.I ~ ITALIAN-LOVE-AFFAIR!!

Got sick of Brown and chipped nail color done last week Friday!! (">_<)

So.... Got a Express Manicure done at Parkway Parade Level 5 "CRYSTAL NAILS". Among all the Nail Palour, my vote has to goes to the "POLISHED-DIVA" located at Bugis Street!

I got my nails painted using their O.P.I - ITALIAN-LOVE-AFFAIR (^_^) This is a classic color series which is FROSTED... BUT.... nice name ugly pink color!! Urgh!


Italian-Love-Affair (Photo Credit: O.P.I)



This is how it suppose to look like ('''._.)



My ugly hands having ITALIAN-LOVE-AFFAIR!

My 1st impression of CRYSTAL NAILS:

I entered the nail palour with a smile asking "Hello, is it possible to do EXPRESS MANICURE to my chipped color manicure that I done last week?". The staff didn't even smile back and replied coldly "Nah, choose your color!" while she pointed briefly to the shelf of O.P.I nail lacquers. DUH!! What an attitude?!

The credit of this place goes to the manicurist who done my nails named Shi Shi. She has been friendly and chatty throughout the service! Guess, maybe there were too many TAI TAIS plus I am so young so they might as well ignore me!!

Will NEVER patronise CRYSTAL NAILS anymore!! (>_<)

I personally think that an EXCELLENT nail bar/palour should makes all customers no matter Taitais or students or kids feel pamper and willing to show good service!! (^_^)


Enjoy the moments of being pamper!
Vivienne *winky*

Fulfill All My Wishes!!!

The spell of Majolica Majorca chant falls hard on me!!!

The magic in-turn cost me the followings (Pictures evidence):


First Princessy wish comes true on 16th August 2006!!


Opening Ceremony!!


Oh!! Love Love the PRINCESSY packaging!!


The GOLD PERSIAN 2-WAY FOUNDATION CASE is what attracts me the most and also causes me to be landed with so many lemmings over MAJOLICA MAJORCA!!!

The highly rave products in Japan was actually CUSTOM PURCHASE (CP) from an angel that I know thru the Beauty Forum (o_0) A Singaporean Lady located in Japan for work! How lucky and brave she is!! Not only she helps me do CP but this angel is kind enough to help almost everyone in the forum!!! BUT, recently she had stopped helping new requests... only helping gals who she helped before (THAT'S INCLUDE ME!!! YEAH!!)! Best and luckiest of all, she does CP totally out of goodwill and gals like me only pay her postage and the price for the products we purchase!! NO EXTRA SERVICE CHARGES!!

Princessy packaging but quality wise... I will review as time goes by!!!

WATCH THIS BLOG! (O_O)



May all Princesses have sweet dreams tonight,
Vivienne *wink*
