Blogmas Day 14: Victoria's Secret Ultra Moisturising Hand and Body Cream
Whilst out on my recent shopping trip which you can read all about here, i headed to the gorgeous Victoria's Secret store in Leeds Trininty shopping centre. As i had a shopping spree back in November where i purchased a top that was in the sale from PINK as it was getting closer to Decemeber they were giving out a secret rewards cards with every purchase. The rewards card can only be used between 4th-19th Decemeber, during this time you are allowed to check what your balance is on the card. The reward is either £10, £50, £100 or £500. So when i went in on Monday i went to go check my balance and i had £10 on my card, yes i was slightly gutted i didn't get the £500 (who wouldn't be?) but £10 is better than nothing!
These are the items that i bought
Winter Cranberry Ultra - Moisturizing Hand and Body Cream - £13.00
Snow Mint Ultra - Moisturizing Hand and Body Cream - £13.00
Frosted Apple Ultra - Moisturizing Hand and Body Cream - £13.00
These retail at £13.00 each but i bought them on offer for 3 for £24 and i used my £10.00 rewards card, so basically i got 2 free and put £14.00 towards it, which i thought was a very good deal.
What it says on the tube
"The perfect holiday treat. Intensive formula is fortified wih replenishing Avocado and Sweet Almond oils. Massage on for a touch of tempting scent and rich, 24-hour moisture."
My review
These scents are perfect for winter/holiday season. The Winter Cranberry includes Cranberry and frosted sugar, Snow Mint includes iced peppermint and ganache and Frosted Apple includes apple and whipped cream. They also had Warm Ginger and Dreamy Vanilla scents but i wasn't keen on them. You can smell the scents really well but i wouldn't say they were overpowering, it's just the perfect amount. I used the Winter Cranberry one as a hand cream before i went to bed and i could still just about smell it on my hands in the morning.
I would say that the cream consistancy is quite thick but personally i don't think that it lays heavy on the skin which is a bonus! The cream absorbs into my skin fully and leaves it feeling hydrated and feeling silky soft to touch.
I would love to have these avaliable all year round!
