I knew I should have stayed home over the weekend. If I did, I wouldn’t have gone out to spend money 😛 That said, I’m quite happy with what I bought from TheFaceShop which is on sale in store until 11 April 2010.
I’m not one for cute stuff, but these 2 fruits had me from the word “Go!” What are they? Hand cream! Aren’t they adorable?! 😀
The lemon is lemon scented (you don’t say!) with a strong sharp lemon scent that smells like freshly squeezed lemons and nothing like dishwashing liquid. Thank goodness! Normal retail price is RM29.90 and they were 50% off. So, I picked up its sister – Apple 😛
Apple smells like erm… apples. A sweeter smell than lemon and one that is potentially cloying so don’t over use it.
I’ve been using them for a few days now and I’m happy with it. Its light yet soothing on the skin and performs as well as a stronger hand cream might. The fruity fragrance starts out strong but mellows and fades quite quickly so you don’t walk around smelling fruity all day.
I have Lemon in my handbag – its cuter and sturdier than carrying a tube of cream and the “cap” clicks shut so I know its tight. I have Apple on my bedside table for the night.
There isn’t much product – 30ml – and at the rate I’m going, it’ll be gone soon so I might pick up another pair before the sale ends. 😀 I don’t usually run product reviews so quickly but I just HAD to tell you about these cuties before the sale ends in store so you can pick yours up too 😀
I also picked up a couple of face masks – 20% off. Will let you know what I think of them later 😀 Have you tried these hand creams? Aren’t they adorable?

March 22, 2010 at 2:09 pmGah! Cuteness overload! Now I’ll really have to go check it out for myself to see if it’s as cute IRL! PB, you are so so so bad for my lemmings! 😛
ParisB says
March 22, 2010 at 2:26 pmHaha at least these are affordable! 😀 Its seriously cute and Lemon reminded me of you and your Burts Bees cuticle cream that you never bought 😛
rinnah says
March 23, 2010 at 2:33 pmI know! I’m still thinking about that lemon Burts Bees cuticle cream… it’s all Em’s fault for letting me have a whiff of it that time… but according to her Monday beauty bits yesterday, Burts Bees might be coming to Malaysia? So there’s hope after all… or I might just cave and ask the new Singapore makeup mule to get it for me… hahahahaha… 😀

March 23, 2010 at 3:09 pmoooo… I’m starting to like TheFaceShop!! Their sales are good~ Just picked up 2 masks yesterday… sales end in april =)
Some masks are up to 50% off! Most are 20%… I personally like the 2-piece mask which fits my face much better than the one piece which is super HUGE! However, there are only 2 types of 2-piece masks sold; White Tree Bright Mask Sheet (RM15.90) and Su Hyang Snow Replenishing Mask Sheet (RM7.90 — got 50% off)… I tried to Su Hyang Snow one and I like it! Love the smell… heh… too bad it was sold out at the Pyramid outlet… Got these 2 instead: Essential Pearl Mask Sheet and Herbal Therapy – Healthy Mask Sheet…
They have quite a lot of moisturising mask… btw, the Su hyang mask one is one of their best sellers. I Didn’t know. shud have bought more when I first got them =(
