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?

Gah! 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
Haha 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
I 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… 😀

And they are good! I’ve tried them. I love the texture a lot. I am planning to get them too. But I keep forgetting to bring out my TFS member card.
ParisB says

What a coincidence! I picked up the apple one a week ago! I plan to refill the cute, red jar if the hand cream runs out 🙂

oooo… 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 =(
IcedNyior says
