Pleasant effects: Cosmetics inspired by alcohol
Text: Roxana Kiseleva
I want to say goodbye to February right awayand we offer to start waiting for spring with safe rituals. We are closing our short thematic series with a list of cosmetics that look and smell like alcohol, but they will not be hung over - only pleasure.
Shower gel Liss Kroully Luxury Skin Juice
290 r
We have two questions for this hero. First of all, why should British businessmen make cheap bathing cosmetics in plastic sparkling bottles in Russia? Secondly, was there really no perfume more interesting for him than coniferous? And with the mark "luxury" we were deceived: the manufacturer from the economy did not even paint the bottle. Plus monstrous naming (juice for the skin!) - in general, the product turned out to be awkward. But on the side of the bath it looks very cinematic, for which it falls into our list, having been awarded the title of "the most successful impulsive purchase."
Noble Isle Whiskey and Water Liquid Hand Soap
£18,00
The brand concept is a huge love for the UK. Therefore, the aromas of Noble Isle means smells that you would like to preserve as a memory of traveling on it. The most curious series here is Whiskey and Water. If the “alcoholic” shower gel is no longer nonsense, then liquid soap, smelling like Scotch whiskey, will surely become the most exquisite product with which you have ever washed your hands. Try Noble Isle products and purchase them in Liberty in London or order them at Cultbeauty.
Tint for lips Château Labiotte
$11,5
We guess that in the suggested instagram photos of these Korean guys you have already seen more than once. Labiotte tints are not distinguished by unprecedented stamina, unique shades and generally do not make miracles (and even do not smell wine), but they are packaged in miniature wine bottles - it is simply impossible to pass by. Of course, the brilliant idea immediately went into circulation, and now you can find an analogue ten times cheaper on the well-known Chinese website. What we do not recommend, because what this product is made of and who will be responsible for the consequences, if something goes wrong, you will never know.
Sting in the Tail Shower Gels
1400 r in stores "Republic"
Tiny beauty stands in the shops of the Respublika network usually bypass buyers, but in vain: in addition to French soap, in elegant tin boxes you can find entertaining shower gels that will appeal to barchoppers. If you are trendy, but simple, take Gin & Tonic, if you like to remember the first courses of the university, for you there is Vodka & Orange. And if you don’t like to spend money on expensive shower gels, you can choose a bar of your choice: there’s gin and tonic again, and even champagne and cider.
Body and Hand Cream Keyano Aromatics "Champagne and Roses"
1320 rubles
With the name, the brand, of course, was a hoaxer, but the notes of the corporate party in the flavor of this cream are still there: it smells festive, bright and moderately cloying. There are no complaints to the cream itself: it quickly nourishes and moisturizes, and nothing more is needed from the body cream. In case without this smell you can no longer live, Keyano also has a scrub and massage oil in the same line.
Hand Cream The Body Shop "Absinthe"
390 rubles
Once absinthe was the favorite of Parisian bohemia and the main drink of Montmartre's taverns, and now very few people drink it: too hard, too expensive. Who may be interested in absinthe-like hand cream? Managers of The Body Shop know the answer to this question: they have been successfully selling this tool for several years.
Bath Salt Bath House Rosé Prosecco
£5,00
No matter how harmful it is, it is better to use champagne inside than to pour it into a bath: the capacity for such a case should be no larger than the pelvis, otherwise it will be too expensive. For a relaxing bathhouse, royally look for sparkling in another form: for example, this is the bath salt. You can restrict yourself with salt alone and collect a set of soap, an aromatic candle and lip balm, then you don’t want to look at this Prosecco for another year - that’s a bonus!
Bomb for the bath Lush "Lord of the Christmas"
$7,45
Bombs for a bath with the scent of mulled wine - this idea of Lush would be worth adopting, or at least transferring the seasonal product of Lord of Misrule into a permanent collection. Chip "Lord of Christmas" in color: opening, the bomb colors the water in a beautiful wine shade. The perfumery composition to the wine one, however, is no longer enough, but black pepper and patchouli are already a wonderful warm combination with a bright hint of warming mulled wine.
