Kiehl’s Limited Edition Pear Tree Corner Shower Gel makes me homesick!

August 11, 2009 Paris B 13 Comments

Kiehls Pear Tree Corner Shower gel

Kiehl’s started out in 1851 and they never allow us to forget that – it forms a part of their name except most of us are lazy and just call them Kiehl’s. They started at Pear Tree Corner in New York so when they wanted to commemorate this, they came up with a Pear Tree Corner Deluxe Set. I only have the shower gel which was a gift. I believe this may be an old collection.

Why do I feel homesick when I  use this? Because it smells of pears! Its a lovely light scent and a lovely light texture on the skin. Cleans without drying and does not lather up too much. I don’t know if its still available in the stores but I’d love to pick up the whole range – Pear scented lipbalm sounds divine 😛 Now onto my reason for homesickness and pear scents…

The reason for my homesickness is that I come from a little town in Malaysia where I used to indulge in a roadside drink known as “Pear Juice”. I have no idea what it was made of but I was always told it was pears – it certainly smells like pears. I have not found this in the big city of Kuala Lumpur where I now live but whenever I smell the Pear Tree Corner shower gel, it makes me think of home and that ice cold pear juice drink of my youth!

I’m going home this weekend – I’ve been bathing in the Kiehl’s Pear Tree Corner shower gel the whole week and this weekend I’m going to indulge in this pear juice drink of my childhood! 😀

Do you have a scent that reminds you of home? Do share! 😀

Stay beautiful,

Paris B

    I received mine in November last year – and you’re right, Miss B – the smell is DIVINE!! I only wish that it was more foamy, then my bathing ritual would’ve been even more decadent!

      Hey Yani

      Oooh I have to so agree with you on the foam. It would be nice if it lathered up a lot more! I spend my shower time taking deep breaths of the pear scent – I swear its addictive 😛

      Hi Abby

      I’m thinking of trying the scrub next if I see it in the stores – I’m thinking of doing a Kiehl’s run soon 🙂

    Pear Tree Corner is Fantastic!! I bought the full set after sampling the body scrub which is amazing-good for your weekly pampering sessions. The body lotion & shower gel-great stuff and I cant wait to drop by at kiehls to try their rainforest line…

I remember when I first tried the #antipodesskinca I remember when I first tried the #antipodesskincare Aura Manuka Honey Mask. It blew my mind away! Soothes skin. Boosts hydration and just makes you feel like you have the best skin ever! Not kidding. If you have a spot or irritated skin, it calms it down and helps get rid of your spots too. Honey is anti bacterial after all, so it’s a great multitasker. 
I also love the Manuka Honey Skin brightening Day Cream. It’s light but creamy and sinks into the skin. I’ve reviewed them both on the blog in the past. If you run a search for Antipodes, you’d also notice how much I love the brand! 😁
I’m super late with this but if you’re planning to purchase any of these 3 Manuka honey items from TNS Skinlab, the code MYWSTUFF10 will give you an extra 10% off (until tomorrow 31 Dec) I highly recommend grabbing the Aura mask. You’ll never want to be without (I always have a backup!) 
Thanks for the gift @tnsskinlab and I must apologise for my tardiness 😩 I’ll learn to cope better from next week! 
Now I have to scuttle and write my year end musings. Some traditions must be kept! 😜
Tell me your fave Antipdoes skincare product!

It’s my first year doing retail and honestly, I’d never been so busy! The year-end rush is unreal! But busy is good, right? At least that’s what I tell myself 😂
While I pack up gift boxes of treats for doggies 🐶 (I’ve tied so many ribbons I’ve finally started to get it right!) #loccitanemalaysia makes it easy to shop for humans 😅 at experienceloccitane.com with their L’Occitane en Demande service. Place your order, and pick up in store or have it delivered. 
Had a bit of breather today and put together a little video. Blink and miss my little monster 🐶 helping me shop! Not sponsored but I did receive a gift from L’Occitane, for which my sun-exposed, dry dog-walking skin thanks you! 
Haven’t done any Christmas shopping this year. It has only just struck me that it’s but mere days away! 😨 Have you done yours?
