New 05/08/12

Sunday, August 5, 2012

And ohmygod, you guys: since when was Elizabeth Arden Eight Hour Cream available in a fragrance-free formula?! This is exciting; I am excited! (The original Eight Hour Cream is silicone-free, but the strong scent has turned me off it enough that I’ve never really tried it.)

For the original formula: Petrolatum (56.8%), Lanolin, Mineral Oil, Tocopherol, BHT, Salicylic Acid, Ricinus Communis Seed Oil (Castor), Vegetable Oil, Zea Mays Oil (Corn), Fragrance, Citral, Citronellol, Geraniol, Limonene, Linalool, Propylparaben, Iron Oxides

And one last product…

Really, Victoria’s Secret? Really? I’m judging you; we’re all judging you right about now.

    I am eyeing on Armani's Yeux Teint. I like neutral colors. Don't know when is it available at stores??

    LOL! From what i've seen too, the VS Nakeds palette is not all that either–too many shimmers and glitters for my taste

    Haha, Urban Decay is judging Victoria's Secret too — they're having legal tangles ;) Seems the VS one is a poor substitute for UD's, though!

    Should land in stores this month :)

    Ha! Good to know my judging is in such great company :p

    Yeah. The textures just look sub-par — but then, I guess that's what you get with a knockoff like that, eh?

    Oh my goodness! :o What a bit of controversy — good on UD for protecting their brand, though!

    The whole VS ripoff of the UD naked palette reminded me: urban decay is having a huge sale on their website right now. Vintage eyeshadows, palettes, lipsticks, lipglosses, etc. I'm trying to be good, but everything looks so pretty!

    Some of the VS makeup are not bad. I hauled some deals during their last sale. My favorite is their eyeshadows.

    Oh I know the feeling with the EA 8 hour cream. It may have a lovely texture and be a kickass product, but the smell is just bad for me. I cannot stand it and combine that with a hefty pricetag -unless you find it in a discount bin or duty free- has put me off the entire range. The lipbalm was the same sticky, heavy feeling with a heavy floral scent. The handcream was excellent!!

    Perhaps I'm (we're) better suited for the fragrance free one.

    Perhaps we are! Will see if I can find it in-store sometime this next week — fingers crossed ;)

    Its sad, isn't it? US brands in non-US countries. Australia has the same predicament: Nobody ships over here (I'd LOVE Neiman Marcus and Sephora) and the prices are ridiculous. When I visit the States, I'll be taking a makeup shopping list!
