Perlier Volcanic Thermal Scrub

Hey everyone~!

I have posted about the Italian brand Perlier before, and here they are again. Perlier on HSN has sent me the Volcanic Thermal Scrub via iFabbo!

I have used at least a hundred different scrubs in my life... if not more. But, this one was special. It was not oil based, but instead the exfoliating particles were suspended in a gel like substance. It did not foam up, even though I thought it could be a possibility. The size of particle varies greatly, there are fine powders and coarser granules mixed together, definitely something that would set a scrub apart from the rest. For the most part, scrubs contain a particular size of grit and attempt to stay consistent. 

The actual experience was pretty nice, the scrub did not feel super heavy or leave a film on my skin after I had rinsed it off. I feel that this part of the reason many beauty lovers are turned off from scrubs. When you have to work extra in order to feel clean after taking a shower it is not the best feeling. The light gel left my skin feeling clean, smooth and moisturized. 

There is a light clean scent to the scrub, this makes it easy to convince "manly" men (I say this mostly as a poke at my friends who don't like to use flowery scented scrubs but still want to feel smooth) to use a scrub. I personally like the slightly more clean scent to some of the heavy syrupy fragrances I have experienced in the past. It is fresh, clean, and reminds me greatly of the perfume line "Clean". Almost like a unisex deodorant soap. I enjoy it greatly :) 

Overall, I think this is a really great product. According to the HSN website here are the benefits of this product;

• Complex of key ingredients contains water from the hot spring concession located in the municipality of Abana Terme (Padua)
• Helps optimize skin's elasticity for a more youthful appearance
• Helps combat visible signs of aging such as the appearance of dull-looking skin
• Formulated with key ingredients that are rich in mineral salts
• Contains minerals of different particle size for dual rejuvenating and smoothing beauty action
• Finer powders smooth skin and rough area 
• Helps leave skin soft and velvety 

That seems a bit of an overstatement in my opinion, but not all benefits will be apparent at the first few uses so they might be more visible after a few more regular uses. 

Overall, I would definitely recommend this scrub, on its own it goes for about $25USD which is not terrible. I would not say that it is the best scrub I have ever used, but it does deserve a place in my top 15 list. 

Thats about it! 

Until Next Time,

Hey Dude Shoes, Boy are these fantastic!

Hello everyone!!!

I have some of the coolest shoes ever as of two weeks ago. Hey Dude Shoes Vinci Oxfords in Charcol. They are military canvas and suede, super light weight, super cute and, oh yea. Made for men. But, Leah has huge feet, I clock in at a women's 10 and a Men's 8.5, and that means she can wear men's shoes. Does that have any advantage in day to day life? Other than the fact that I can steal my guy friend's shoes and wear them leaving my own ratty converse for them, not much.

But to be able to wear Hey Dude Shoes is totally awesome :D I LOVE THEM! They are so friggin cool! I was sent these for review, but gosh a backup pair would be nice. 

I wore them for three days straight while walking around my college's campus and let me tell you that these are the only dress shoes I have ever worn that are as squishy and comfy as running shoes ( I AM SO SERIOUS!). I love the light weight feel and easiness of wear with these shoes. 

The Oxfords had a proper inner arch to them and I never felt like they were really on my feet. They weight in at a little more than 6 ounces they are feather light. Here is what the company says on its site;

The Vinci brogue oxford is a must have shoe for any laid back, style conscious guy. Constructed of lightweight military canvas with Italian cow-suede toe, heel and overlay, the Vinci weighs just 6 ounces. The Dupont sole has a rugged tread pattern giving the shoe an original take on the classic wing-tip. Suitable for work or the pub, Vinci is a great alternative to heavy dress shoes.



I have to say that they are the most amazing men's dress shoes I have ever been. Both men and women have run up to me wanting to know where they are from. Hear that Hey Dude Shoes? ALL my GIRL friends want them! I wish to be made aware the second the Women's line comes out, the smaller sizes of the Vinci would disappear in seconds!

I really cannot express how wonderful these are in words. The fit is great, despite being a man's shoe, the feeling when you step is unparalleled in Men or Women's dress shoes, the construction is superb and you can buy new insoles for only $7 so you can "recharge" the comfort of your shoes!












That is about it. I took at least another 20 photos of these shoes but decided that it would be just a little TOO MUCH to spam you guys with ALL of them. I will admit I am lusting after the new Vinci Neons hardcore. They are sooo pretty... and the new color of Vinci, Nut, is really gorgeous as well. 

Until Next Time,
GLITTERPUKEE!!!!
