UV protection for our hands & arms

hands

I admit that I’ve been kind of lazy in taking care of my hands and arms.  Apart from applying hand cream, I’ve only started religiously applying sunblock on my hands and arms these two years after I noticed some age spots growing on them. 

Seriously, this part of our body is a tell tale sign of our age.  We can have really good skin on our face but if our hands are all wrinkled up and our arms are covered with age spots, that’s a dead giveaway.

Elizabeth Arden Green Tea Tropical

Elizabeth Arden Green Tea TropicalI am not much of a perfume lover but I have to concede that I was completely wowed by Elizabeth Arden Green Tea Tropical.  

Despite the unexciting name, this is a very refreshing fragrance which is actually a new and better element to their Green Tea Scent. 

While the fragrance features an infusion of lychee, passion fruit, Mexican dragon fruit, green tea, Chinese Magnolia, sea moss and tropical blackberries, this isn’t your typical ultra fruity sweet fragrance.  It’s a lot lighter, yet very uplifting.  A scent that is good for the soul I would say. 

Jurlique Foaming Facial Cleanser

Jurlique foaming facial cleanserI love this! Jurlique Foaming Facial Cleanser with tea tree, lavender and herbal antioxidants.  It smells good, foams up well and cleans my face thoroughly without stripping it dry.  The best part is that I don’t need a lot of it for each wash.

This product is hypo-allergenic and contains rather high concentrations of natural OPC antioxidants and foaming substances in addition to the tea tree and lavender essential oils.

Aesop Resurrection Aromatique Hand Balm

Aesop Resurrection Aromatique Hand BalmViva Woman is really happy to receive another contribution from a reader, this time from someone who likes to be known as 763092, who is rather pleased with the Aesop Resurrection Aromatique Hand Balm which she has bought recently.

Said 763092: “I like its greaseless and light texture.  And it has an invigorating smell of mandarin orange which helps to awake me and makes me feel spirited in the morning. I can even smell it from some distance away while walking towards the store in Millenia Walk!”
