Beso Balm by Snoe Review

Hi!

I'm back! I'd like to start off my posts with a product that is currently on my favorites list. I have chapped lips, but I don't like constantly applying lip balm. I got this product for free two to three months ago in a bazaar in Glorietta. I wasn't much interested in it at first, because like I said I don't like constantly applying lip balm. One day though, I felt my lips ache, perhaps because of how dry it is. It was honestly like the skin could break. I could still feel it even if I wet my lips. 

It was then when I decided to use this and it was a good thing I did. I certainly felt a lot better after. It gives you this minty or cooling sensation. I believe it is from one of the ingredients, spearmint. My lips didn't really hurt after I applied it, but after an hour or two the pain returns. I continued applying every hour or two and it worked! 



Look at the warning! "Prolonged use may attract the opposite gender and cause intense flirting." I thought the whole idea of the warning was adorable. I chuckled a little after reading it. Unfortunately, I am not using it long enough yet to attract the opposite gender. Kidding! 


I also liked the instructions, not because of what the instructions were for , but because of the creativity. Usually, you would see serious instructions that would advice you to use it when you feel like you have dry or chapped lips, as well as use it when necessary. This was playful and fun, both the warning and the instructions. Those were a 'plus' for me,




Ingredients: Cocos nucifera (coconut) oil, Halianthus Annuus (sunflower) seed oil, Beeswax, Metha Viridis (spearmint) leaf oil, Butyrospermum Parkii (Shea Butter), Tocopheryl Acetate, Octyl Methoxicinnamate, Menthol, Benzophenone 3, Blue1 (CI42090), Yellow 5 (CI 19140)

After using it several times a days for a few days, I noticed that my lips no longer hurt, even if I don't apply it. I will continue to use it in the future.

All in all, I liked using this product for it actually worked and gave me comfort. I recommend it to all those who have dry or chapped lips, especially ones whose lips already hurt like mine before. Kindly make sure you aren't allergic to any of the ingredients though. I would continue to use this in the future, unless I find something I like better. I also plan of using Snoe products.

Beauty: Godiva Solid Shampoo by Lush

Hi Everyone!

Today, I'd like to talk about something I've been using for the past couple of weeks. To everyone who didn't know, I am a huge "Lushee". I try to go to Lush, the one located in Glorietta, whenever I can. I just love going there because it smells amazing and I love looking at their current products.

By the way, if you didn't know, Lush creates fresh handmade cosmetics. They are basically a vegan, cruelty free company. Check their website here

The first time I ever saw a Lush store, I remember I was immediately drawn by the scent. It was so strong I could clearly smell it from outside. I wanted to buy something but I was skeptical because they were quite expensive. Then, I saw Zoella and Louise vlog about it. If you don't know who they are, click on their names to check their Youtube Channels. They are two of my favorite female vloggers. 

They have a product called a shampoo bar. I was immediately drawn to it because the idea of a shampoo being a bar was interesting to me. It would be great whenever I need to travel, or stay somewhere overnight. I was curious with regards to how foamy it would get. I decided to try it out. I got something called the Godiva. It is both a shampoo and a conditioner.



According to LushUSA,
"2-in-1 jasmine shampoo with conditioning butters:

Our vegan, 2-in-1 shampoo bar cleans and conditions your hair with moisturizing nut oils and shea butter. These butters and oils care for dry, processed locks and leave you with glossy, shiny, and softened tresses. Long used as a tonic for the hair and scalp, jasmine also perfumes your locks with an ultra-sexy fragrance with serious staying power. Named after a certain naked protestor, Godiva gets to work sending a message to your hair"

I have thoroughly enjoyed using the Godiva solid shampoo. I am a satisfied customer.

The first thing I noticed after using it during the first few days is that my hair easily gets tangled. I felt as if I didn't use a conditioner. The thing is, once my hair is dry, it feels really soft. After a week or two though, I noticed the whole "just shampoo" feel gradually decreases. I love the smell on my hair and how soft it gets afterwards. I also noticed how after two to three weeks, my hair got a bit shinier. It had a soft glow whenever I looked in the mirror.

This is basically the bar. It contains bits and pieces of conditioner and jasmine inside. 

If you are wondering how it is actually used, here is a little how-to video. 

How to use:


The shampoo should last for 2-3 months. Mine lasted for a month, but my grandma was using it as well. We both use it twice a day, so you do the math.

P.S. Refrain from keeping it in a container that keeps getting wet. Once it is in a puddle of water, it melts.

Overall, I enjoyed using it. I like how it made my hair soft and a little shiny. I also love the smell. I love smelling my hair while trying to dry it. I would recommend it. I will also buy more. I'll probably try different shampoo bars and solid conditioners. I'd love to see more products from Lush.

I'd give this product 4 Stars!
