Australian body care tea tree oil body lotion

-
I haven't heard about the Australian body care brand until recently my little one was down with chicken pox and the doctor prescribed this body lotion to apply on her body. Now this prescription against norms - it is usually calamine lotion everybody uses to soothe those boils. Long story short, I bought this body lotion from the pharmacy [when the doctor prescribes something for your little one, no questions are asked; you just buy it]. It will lighten your pocket by 11 KD.

I haven't seen this body care range on the super market shelves in Kuwait. A bit of googling made me realise that the company uses tea tree oil in all of its products and that tea tree oil doesn't come from the tea leaves used to make tea. Tea tree is an entirely different variety of plant. Enlightenment!!!!!!!!!!!


The body lotion comes packaged in a plastic tube with a flip open cap. This is a 200 ml tube. The Australian product range claims to use natural active ingredients. In this case - tea tree oil. Tea tree oil has anti bacterial, anti viral and antiseptic properties. The expiry is 12 months from opening


I have used this body lotion on myself too and as you can see the cap is still clean; not much spillage/wastage is there once the cap is shut.



The body lotion is white in colour and has consistency of a normal body lotion. It is easy to dispense the body lotion from the tube by slighlty pressing the tube. Its the fragrance that just hits you in the face when you spread the body lotion. My my...the lotion has a very very strong smell of tea tree oil in it and it just engulfs you when you spread the lotion on your body. The smell is too strong for me and I hate it but thankfully the smell dissipiates in no time. The body lotion gets easily absorbed into the skin in no time, leaving it soft and supple for a long time. I didn't find the need to reapply it for the whole day. It is non greasy too.

The product also claims that it will stop ingrown hairs.Now to test that, I need to use the body lotion for a longer time than two weeks. This body lotion can be used by men and women.

I am very happy with the product except for the smell. Phew....
Well if you love tea tree oil products, then the smell might not bother you much. But then this product is supposed to soothe and calm sore, dry and cracked skin. So more of a medicinal kind of product rather than commercial body lotions which have more pleasing smells to attract the masses.

Quiznos...

Ever since the American franchise, Quiznos, opened up in my work place, I wanted to try it out. They have subs, soups and salads. Quiznos doesn't have many branches in Kuwait. But one can order online through talabat . They do have a Facebook (Quiznos Kuwait), twitter  (quiznos_kw) and Instagram (quiznos_kw) accounts and a  website . Their hotline number is    188001. Their small subs are like 5 or 6 inches long and is more than enough to satiate you.  You can choose brown or white or jalapeno or rosemary Parmesan bread. I am in love with the rosemary Parmesan bread ever since I tried it.  That is how it is packaged. I bought the egg and cheddar breakfast sub on a rosemary-parmesan bread.I do not like jalapenos and pickles in my sub, so I always avoid it. And thank god they do not give you much options like Subway :). My friend ordered the steak, egg and cheddar sub. The bread is quite flavorful and light. You do not feel heavy after eating t

Bourjois rouge edition velvet lipstick No. 12

I picked up this liquid lipstick during the recent sale in Boots. I have seen a lot of pics and reviews about the liquid lipsticks from Bourjois and I wanted to try one for a long time. They have a lot of shades to choose from and I ended up buying the No. 12 shade called beau brun. Now, the company promises light texture, extreme comfort and 24hour hold. It is packaged in a transparent tube and the cap color matches the lipstick shade (which is a big plus for me; you have an idea what the shade is before swatching rather than open up every tube to find out the color). That is how it looks once you open it. There is a 'chemical' smell which is annoying but is gone in a few seconds.The brush has a slant at the top and this makes the application of the lipstick a lot easier. With this brush, you can actually apply the lipstick tracing the lines of your lips without any bleeding and even the corners of your lips is easily reachable. The above pic

INGLOT had organised an event exclusively for their social media fans to celebrate 10 years of beauty. It was an invite to their store in Avenues Mall to experience their latest collections and makeup applications on Wednesday August 10, 2016. The invite was only to the first 200 who RSVPd to an email ID they had posted on Fb. I have always passed by their store and admired the colorful display of nail polishes and eye shadows but never really ventured to walk in and try the products.  Inglot store in Avenues We were received with a welcome drink and donuts :). I had fun walking around and swatching and trying again the lip shades, eye shadows and foundation. The crowd was huge. Hmm..who would want to miss to be a part of such an event.
