L'Occitane Pivoine Delicate Collection


I'm a massive fan of L'Occitane, with one of their hand creams always being in my bag. The products they have come up with are amazing and always smell to die for, I am also a massive fan of their perfumes with them being so fresh and beautiful. I was sent a few products from their Pivoine Delicate Collection to try out and have been using them for the last few weeks so I thought I would let you know my thoughts on them.

L'Occitane Pivoine Delicate Collection*


Me and the shimmering powder didn't get on when I first opened it, with me not realising it had a stop cap on it I was puffing the puffer trying to get it to work then when I finally took it out a whole bunch poofed out in my face... So I can confirm this is not edible and tastes like perfumed powder, which left me me definite fairy breath afterwards!. But on to its actual use, which can be two ways... On the body or the hair. On the body it leaves a nice little shimmer and definitely makes the skin feel soft with a subtle scent, on the hair it gives the illusion of shine and leaves it scented which I kept on getting whiffs of. I wouldn't use this all the time though only on nights out and you have to be quite sparing with it as you really don't want to go out looking like an extra from Twilight.

The hand cream has L'Occitanes trademark hand cream feel to it, which is thick and luxurious while utterly moisturising without being heavy or sticky. The smell is absolutely amazing, fresh and florally! The lid of this one is a twist one which I love as I hate having to try to put a lid back on things as I have cream all over my hands, this has become a firm favourite in my handbag with everyone wanting to use some when I pull it out plus the cute pink packaging makes it to die for.


Ah my love, LIPSTICK! I was excited when I saw this, I am utterly obsessed with lipsticks and this just slotted in nicely into my collection.
The colour is a barely there pink that just adds a nice sheen, a little sparkle and a nice hint of colour... Perfect for them days when you don't want to be wearing much on your face or trying to perfect that no make up look. The lipstick itself is highly moisturising and has a very light fragrance which is the same as the whole collection.

Have you bought anything from this collection? Do you want anything?
