Victoria Secret's Body Butters

I've been using Victoria's Secret for the past 3 years or so. The retail price is usually $10.50 for 7oz but if you catch them during the sale, it could be 7 for $35 dollars.

All in all, the butter is very easy to absorb, leaving no greasy residual. It also does a good job in moisturizing and keeping my skin from flaking during the winter. There are a variety of scents to choose from. My top 2 favorites would be Strawberry Champagne, and Pure Seduction.

The only con I can think of is that it is not 'extremely' moisturizing so if your skin is extra dry, this butter might not be suitable for you. Also the ingredients are not all natural (containing paraben, silicone, and mineral oil).

Verdict: You should purchase these if your skin is not the extremely dry type.

I'm planning to try out the Body Shop body butters next since I heard very good thing about it!

Victoria Secret Chubby Eye Stick in Glampagne

Swatch on my hand
I love this eyeshadow stick! The shade is gorgeous, a bronzy shimmering beige neutral. The color is versatile in that you can use it by itself for everyday look, or layer on top of your night look. I got it during a sale so it was also very affordable (~$3 each). The eyeshadow is creamy, and glide on well.

The only annoying thing is that it is VERY hard to find a big enough pencil sharpener for this since it's bigger than the typical eyeshadow stick. I also have another in a shimmery lilac color. However have not broken the seal yet, will review when I use it.

Verdict: Repurchase! (in different colors since this one will still last me for a while)
