The daily lemming

Posted by Robin on 17 May 2022 4 Comments

I still haven't made it to Lush to check out Sticky Dates, and now here's Glitch: "It’s game over for dirt and bacteria! This refreshing body wash is encoded with cleansing lemongrass oil and lime juice. Lathering up with the blend of carrageenan extract and vegetable glycerin will unlock the achievement of super soft, hydrated skin while the smile-inducing citrus scent will reboot your system." $11 - $37 at Lush USA.

Gosh, I'd nearly forgotten all about Patyka. They're a French organic brand, and their perfumes, which I don't think they make anymore, were talked about on MakeupAlley's fragrance board, oh, another lifetime ago. I came across their Néroli Divin shower gel online the other day ("Revitalize the mind, body and soul with citrus zesty notes and organic botanicals that comfort and cleanse. Let the unique essence carry you away to Tangier, an inspiring city full of light") and then realized there are others: Bois Precieux ("visualize relaxing along the bank of Rio Madeira in Porto Velho, admiring the canopy") and Raisin Perlé ("your mind’s eye journeys into the mountain of Reims, strolling along the scenic vineyards to admire the sun-kissed grapes"). $35 each (not a bargain then, but cheaper than Lush) for 250 ml at Patyka US.

Another lemming from Floris, thanks to galbanumgal: Violet Mouthwash. "Modern violet tones meet Floris tradition with this concentrated mouthwash in a beautiful glass bottle. A breath freshening, glamorous and sophisticated approach to dental hygiene in just six beautiful drops, bringing grace to your morning routine as well as a touch of stately decadence for any bathroom shelf. [...] Just six drops applied to 60ml of warm water is all that is required and a 100ml bottle can be expected to last at least 2 months if used daily." $65 at Floris, and also available in Rose for the same price.

Caudalie launched Vinofresh, their aluminum-free natural deodorant, last year, and I still haven't tried it — raise your hand if you have! "Take care of your underarms while combating odors thanks to the new natural Vinofresh deodorant. Its unique formula is made up of 98% natural origin ingredients and is guaranteed aluminium-free, alcohol-free, silicone-free and baking soda-free. Effective for 24 hours, its stick format is easy to use: it acts in one go without leaving traces or blocking pores. This natural 24 hour deodorant is powered by Organic fresh-scent Eucalyptus and prebiotic Grape Water to control odor, hydrate, and support a healthier underarm flora." Reviews are mixed, as is usually the case with natural deodorants, but I'm wondering if it's any better than what I already have (Malin + Goetz Eucalyptus Deodorant). $15.
