Clarins Body Treatment Oil

Advantages: no greasy residue, smells amazing, feels luxurious
Disadvantages: dispensing is messy

I was given a bottle of this oil for my 40th birthday. Given the price it will have to remain a special birthday treat and I don't think I will be buying a replacement when it is finished. It is great on your skin after the bath, really rubs in well with no greasy residue. I particularly like putting it on the my legs after shaving if they feel itchy as it is very sooting. My sister got into when she was pregnant to help prevent strech marks. She doesn't have any so whetehr it was the oil or genetic I don't know. It smells absolutely gorgeous, a sort of minty, lemony, herby (no not like a roast chicken) rather than the usual cosmetic floral scent. I don't like to way it dispenses, though.

Review of Clarins Tonic Body Treatment Oil

Decleor oh la la!

Advantages: Makes skin really smooth, a nice treat
Disadvantages: A bit on the pricey side

This exfoliating product is especially good, but I think that you are paying quite a lot for the brand name as I think that a cheaper product could do the job just as well. But this is really nice for a treat. The tube comes in a 200ml size and costs around £27 (from the Decleor website). The key ingredients in it are Micro-Beads, Sweet Almond Oil and Limnanthes Alba, Aloe Vera Gel and Soya Lecithin. As it has plant extracts in it you feel like you are using something really natural. The exfoliating cream itself is white and quite creamy and it has tiny exfoliating beads in it which are really effective. You can use it for all over your body. I found that it made my skin really soft and clean, and it didn't dry out my skin which meant that I didn't have to moisturise afterwards ...
