While browsing eBay (one of my favorite stores, alphabeautyuk) I discovered Kose´s new bodycare series "Rose of Heaven" which comes in very pretty appealing packaging and claims to:
-contain damask rose honey and extracts from 4 selected rose parts (buds, flower, petal and fruit) and
-7 organic plant extracts (rosemary, marigold, elderflower, chamomile, olive oil, jojoba oil, sunflower oil).
-Also the scent is described to be like freshly grown in paradise or something like that.
There are only a few items in the line: Holy Cocktail Body Essence (some sort of massage essence if I am not wrong), Fragrance, Hand & Body Milk (in 2 sizes), Lip Balm and Body Creamy Butter.
I picked up the Lip Balm and the larger (185ml) size of the Hand & Body Milk. Sasa has the items, too, but they´re currently out of stock (except for the Holy Cocktail Body Essence).
-Lip Balm:
The lip balm comes in a cute light pink pot. The balm has a milky pink color which also shows up a little on your lips (making them look pale) if you slap on a generous amount of the balm.
The balm is very smooth and feels really nourishing. The scent reminds me a lot of Kose´s Happy Bath Day series which disappointed me a little as I wanted it to smell different but since I like Happy Bath Day I am not too upset. Happy Bath Day smells a bit frutier and less powdery which makes me like the scent of the products from Happy Bath Day better though.
-Hand & Body Milk:
I got the large bottle as it has a pump dispenser and it´s better value for money.
The Hand & Body Milk is a very interesting product as you pump out a milky pink gel but when you rub it in it transforms into a smooth white cream which gives a good deal of moisture and makes my skin very smooth.
Like the lip balm this has a strong scent, a powdery rose scent which is pleasant but not my top favorite fragrance for sure.
Price-wise these are on the higher side for a drugstore brand. I like both items and will continue using these. Not sure if I´d repurchase though!
