REN Moroccan Rose Otto – the ultimate body indulgence

The beautiful packaging, the heavenly rose scent and the quality of this beautiful range is simply flawless. It truly is the ultimate treat. The range is formulated with Moroccan Rose Otto Oil which is one of the world’s most expensive and revered essential oils.

REN sent me 3 products from this exquisite range and I immediately fell in love.

‘The exquisite scent of Rose is known for its stress relieving and harmonising properties.’

Moroccan Rose Otto Body Wash – R250 for 200ml

The body wash smells lovely, foams beautifully and leaves my skin feeling cleansed, yet soft and smooth. A little goes along way and the pump bottle is just perfect.

Moroccan Rose Otto Body Lotion – R380 for 200ml

This lotion easily absorbs and leaves my skin feeling supple, soft and cared for. The scent lingers on the skin without being overpowering. True bliss.

Moroccan Rose Otto Ultra-Moisture Body Oil – R525 for 100ml

Oh my. This body oil is the ultimate in luxury. The scent and the beautiful glass bottle alone is enough to make you want more. It is very moisturising without feeling heavy. It absorbs quickly and leaves my skin with a beautiful radiant glow. And it works so well with my super sensitive and dry skin. The body oil is not just a treat, but also a ‘treatment’ as it locks in moisture, restores elasticity and combats the signs of premature ageing.

These products are truly a spoil and would make perfect gift for yourself or a loved one.

Have a look at the REN SA website for more info or follow them on Twitter or Facebook.

I have never tried anything by this brand before, and if the quality of this range is anything to go by, REN has made me a fan for life. More REN reviews coming soon…

Nuxe Huile Prodigieuse Review

I have been coveting the Nuxe Huile Prodigieuse multi-usage dry oil for months now (a friend told me about it after she spotted it in a mag – dankie Hester!) and I have been green with envy every time I read a review. I have not heard a single bad thing about this product. At our first #BloggersWhoBless event I spotted a 10ml bottle of this precious oil in our bag of spoils and all I wanted to do was go home, wash my face and try it out. Is it really as fabulous as it claims to be?

Hell yes! I love it. A few drops is enough to cover my face and neck and it sinks in immediately. My skin is left feeling so soft and supple that I can’t keep my hands away from my face. It smells lovely too. We all know that facial oils are beneficial and can be used on all skin types. I was still a bit worried to try it on my face as the past couple of weeks have been terribly hot and my skin tends to look like an oil slick within a couple of hours after cleansing. Damn hot and humid I tell you! But because the oil doesn’t sit on your skin, I never felt as though I was suffocating and my skin did not seem to be more oily than usual after using this. I have only used it on my face, neck and hands as I am way too stingy and I want this bottle to last me a long time (or at least till my birthday next month… family and friends reading this?!). Even though I am using it very sparingly, I think the big bottle will last you ages. A little goes a long way.

Here is a little bit more on the oil (as per the Nuxe website):

‘98.1% of the ingredients in this Dry Oil are of natural origin, it is a unique combination of 30% Precious Plant Oils and Vitamin E to nourish, repair and soften your face, body and hair in a single step. Your face and body are left feeling soft and silky. Your hair is supple, soft and shines with health.’

I am enjoying every single drop of this oil and this is a product that I will definitely buy for myself. This is going to be invaluable during the colder months.

You can get yourself one at Truworths: ZAR210 for 50ml and ZAR330 for 100ml. I think the 100ml bottle is a great buy.

Have you tried this oil? What do you think?

On a side note… look out for limited addition bottles like this one. Thanks Heather for making me want it even more!

 

I love Paris in the Spring time!
