Crabtree & Evelyn Citron Honey and Coriander Range

April 11, 2010 Paris B 7 Comments

You might already have seen this around – the  new Crabtree & Evelyn Citron Honey and Coriander range.

I sneaked this picture from the store in MidValley Megamall as I was strolling past one evening. I’d been waiting for its debut really, ever since I got the mailer about it. I love the scent of citrus and lemons so I thought I’d really like this one.

I rather liked how it felt on my hands (I always liked the Hand Therapy), but sadly for me, my friend who was with me took a healthy sniff of the products and proclaimed it “Smells like dishwashing liquid!”.

Oh boo! Tell me its not true!

I still like the light fresh scent of the Crabtree & Evelyn Citron range. Its a nice departure from Crabtree’s other floral powdery scents that are very “old school”. This one’s young, hip and has zing!

But ever since my friend’s proclamation, I can’t get the scent of dishwashing liquid off my mind when I sniff at this so I held off buying since its a permanent range 🙁

Have you tried the Crabtree & Evelyn Citron range? Do you get the smell of fresh lemons, honey and coriander or do you immediately think of washing up dirty dishes when you smell this?

    I love the Sweet Lemon range from The Body Shop, but the shower gel and the soap are the only ones that don’t smell weird or like dishwashing liquid to be honest. So hard to find nice-smelling lemon scented products!

      Yeah the dishwashing business spoilt it for us who like lemon scents

    Hmm… This kinda reminds me of the Honey & Lemon from L’Occitane but too bad they have stopped bringing in for Malaysia coz they weren’t that popular but I totally went crazy over it. But then Crabtree & Evelyn has Coriander. I wonder what’s the scent like. Will drop by to check it out 🙂

      The L’Occitane one might have channeled scents of dishwashing liquid for some? 😉 The coriander smell isn’t strong. Not like in curries anyway LOL…

        Hmmm most of my friends don’t like it either but then everytime when I use the handcream they’ll just ask what’s that 😛 I did notice that when you sweat the smell runs and turns musky. So I just use it at night. I don’t mind coriander coz a friend of mine has this Coriander room fragrance she bought from Manila, I totally fell in love but it’s expensive! *sniff sniff*

An “I’ll be out all day and need my makeup to An “I’ll be out all day and need my makeup to stay on” look 😅 Super simple and using stuff I already own. How many do you recognise? 😅 

For the base I think the key is the Nars setting powder which is basically a silica powder. Many brands have similar white powder for setting. I did this same look yesterday and it barely budged/faded by evening. Only lipstick needed a little topping up 😊 

And this is about all the makeup I can handle these days 😂 no eye makeup cos I can’t be arsed 🤪

Excellent good fun! 😆 Your eyes always want more than your stomach can handle. Ate a lot and bought even more food back home. Diet? What diet? 😂

Posting for posterity because I like this photo 😆 Also hello! 😜

It’s interesting that when I meet people they always ask me “Are you still blogging?” which tells me they don’t read my blog anymore (cos if they did they’d know I am lol! Weekly generally, but still writing) Yet I don’t blame them because a lot of social credit is placed on one’s Instagram presence. This I fear, is an area I am lacking. I pop in every now and then, share stories that are totally unrelated to what people follow me for, then wonder why they unfollow lol! Other times, spider webs gather in the corners of my unused account. I don’t blame them. Not everyone wants to know what my dogs are up to 😜

Anyway I make no apologies. It’s ok if you follow. It’s ok if you don’t. It’s ok if you’re interested in stuff I do. It’s ok if you’re not. Life goes on for both you and I and ultimately, we just both want it to be happy. So do what makes you happy 😊 I’ll still share my beauty finds and I still blog once a week. I may share what I’m up to from time to time, or I may not. I can tell you that I’m keeping busy and that I have a lot on my plate, none of it glamorous unlike that of most content creators/influencers. It’s too boring for most for me to share here so I’ll just share the good bits - as Instagram intended 😂

But if you want to find me, you’ll know how 😊

The review for the product is somewhere on the blog mywomenstuff.com
Yes I know many of you are terrified of lizards 🦎🫣

But I liked this sunscreen - for the body. Even though it left a white cast. Even though it is hard to remove. It kept my arms protected through a weekend of brutal sun exposure and I survived without burning! ✌🏻
