L'Occitane Green Tea with Mint Leaf-Light Body Gel

Posted by Jessica on 21 July 2007 13 Comments

L'Occitane Green Tea with Mint Leaf-Light Body GelLast summer I was desperately dependent upon L’Occitane’s Green Tea with Mint Leaf-Light Body Gel. I was living in a fifth-floor walk-up apartment in an old city apartment building, and I would arrive home from my hour-long, subway-and-bus commute drenched with sweat, only to realize that the apartment was even hotter than the world outside. I couldn’t think clearly or do anything else, for that matter, until I had taken a cold shower and covered myself with Leaf-Light Body Gel.

The Body Gel belongs to L’Occitane’s Green Tea with Mint fragrance line, and it’s one of the few scented products I can stand to smell or even to touch when the temperature rises high into the 90s and beyond…

L’Occitane Honey Foaming Jelly for Body & Hair

Posted by Jessica on 28 January 2007 9 Comments

L'Occitane Honey Foaming Jelly for Body and HairHoney Foaming Jelly for Body and Hair, a combination shower gel and shampoo, is one of the products in L'Occitane's Honey Harvest line. Its label is illustrated with charming, colorful images of bees flanked by clover blossoms, and in the L'Occitane shops, it stands amidst a series of related products, including bars of soap shaped like honeybees.

The familiar symbolism of bees and honey is both practical and indulgent. Bees are traditionally associated with industriousness to the point of compulsion: you can be “busy as a bee” or find yourself preoccupied by a “bee in your bonnet”. The bees' nectar-like output, on the other hand, is the epitome of sweetness: you can address your lover with the endearment “honey” during your “honeymoon”, and you can always “catch more flies with honey than with vinegar”…
