Lily Cole lip gloss

Another lucky bid on Ebay! I'm a sucker for girly stuff and Body Shops Lily Cole collection just hit me in the right place! I adore the products and the design! 


The Body Shop Lily Cole Lip gloss, 02 Go Wild
Standard tube but with the hip pink Lily Cole design on. The gloss itself gives a nice color to it. Of the 17 EDC´s there is only Propylparaben in it, as preservative. That isn't to bad and Body Shop is CRUELTY FREE. In a choice between EDC and Cruelty I choose the EDC´s.

The gloss got a neat tropical fruit scent, and very mild taste. The color is nonexistent to be honest. The gloss is very thick and sticky. I'm not going to keep it, as i don't like my glosses sticky. I got it for 1,55$ plus shipping on Ebay.

Fun fact of the day: L'OrĂ©al owns and produce a lot of your favorite brands, including Lancome, Garnier, Biotherm, Helena Rubenstein, Maybellline, Vichy, and Yves Saint Laurent

Body Shop Lily Cole, Puff on Radiance

You thought I was gone for good didn't ya. But I'm not- I'm right here! Sorry about the unscheduled hiatus, I should be back now. You know how it is when the real world gets in the way.

Any who, I been very lucky on Ebay and snatched myself some Lily Cole goodies for a fraction of the price (Saved 50% compared to the danish prices) and yesterday I received the Puff on Radiance!

The Body Shop Lily Cole Puff on Radiance
This is a nifty highlighter! The container is girly and I'm a fan of anything with a puff and in pearl form lol. I bought it off a private seller on Ebay for a winning bid of 6,50 GBP plus shipping

There is a little plastic holder between the puff and the pearls, very practical!


The puff itself is worthy of a princess

Look how pretty they are! Shimmer shimmer shimmer! They have no remarkable scent


I know this is a shitty picture but it was almost impossible to catch the subtle highlight with the camera. I had to put on a really thick layer and turn down the flash! The pearls are soft on the skin, I got no allergic reaction at all either. As allways I looked through the EDC´s and sadly this contains Butylparaben, Ethylparaben, Methylparaben and Propylparaben. The most mindbogglingly about this is that all 4 of those are PRESERVATIVES! I mean seriously? You need four different preservatives? Ill make sure that when I use this, I wont have any other products with the EDC´s in (to mix EDC´s is the most risky). On the positive side, it does contain talc and seed oils.

All in all tough, a great purchase. Its cruelty free but got EDC´s. I guess you just cant have it all

Body Shop teams up with Lily Cole


Lily Cole recently became ambassador for Body Shop and with that launching a new cruelty free line of makeup! Its limited and will hit UK stores in June. The makeup is pink, girly and filled with the new pearly shaped that dominated the beauty market right now, including a face primer and blush pearls with a pink puff that makes me think of old Hollywood starlets.

Ill be sure to get my friend in UK to get me a haul of this!
