After the ever cute PocketBac, now the time has come for these two big brothers to step out. I have been trying out this famous body care duo and this is what I have to say about the Bath & Bodyworks Japanese Cherry Blossom Shower Gel and Body Lotion. First one I tried was the Japanese Cherry Blossom Shower Gel and I am quite pleased with it. It makes a rich, creamy lather which does feel very luxurious and hydrating. It's a smooth lather which can be used for shaving without any nicks as well. The smell is that signature Japanese Cherry Blossom which in the shower gel isn't too overpowering. After rinsing you can definitely feel how it leaves skin soft and clean, with no residue. The scent lingers and fills the bathroom with its floral and powdery notes. It contains Aloe Vera and Vitamin E which makes it softening and mild. You really don't need to use much per wash so this 88ml bottle will last me up to two weeks. What I appreciate about it is that its much lighter than the heavily scented body lotion. Mild floral which won't annoy me.
Nakon preslatkog PocketBac-a doslo je vrijeme da se iskazu njegova dva starija brata. Vec neko vrijeme isprobavam ovaj poznati dvojac proizvoda njege za tijelo a ovo su moji dojmovi o Bath & Bodyworks gelu za tusiranje i losionu za tijelo sa mirisom japanskog cvijeta tresnje. Prvi je isproban gel za tusiranje sa mirisom japanskog cvijeta tresnje i sa njim sam jako zadovoljna.S lakocom napravi bogatu, kremastu pjenu koja djeluje luksuzno i jako hidratizirajuce. Veoma je glatka i moze se koristiti i za brijanje bez opasnosti da ce brijac iskliznuti i porezati vas. Miris je taj karakteristicni japanski cvijet tresnje koji u ovom gelu za tusiranje nije previse napadan. Nakon ispiranja definitivno mozete primjetiti kako temeljito ocisti kozu i ostavi je mekanom, bez naslaga. Miris se zadrzi kratko na kozi a ispuni cijelu kupaonicu.cvijetnim i puderastim mirisnim notama. Sadrzi aloe veru i vitamin E koji su blagi prema kozi i omeksavaju je. Nije potrebna velika kolicina gela po jednom tusiranju pa ce mi bocica od 88ml trajati mozda i do dvije sedmice. Ono sto mi se jako dopada kod gela jeste to sto je mnogo blaze arome od jako naparfemisanog losiona za tijelo. U pitanju je blagi cvjetni miris koji ne gusi.
The Japanese Cherry Blossom Body Lotion is the stronger smelling one of the two. The scent is obviously an object of a worldwide debate. Is it good or not? Opinions go into extremes and on one side you have people saying it's the most feminine floral you'll find but on the other side of the spectrum, there are ones that find it tacky and sickening. I'll just say that its not as bad as some make it seem. It's an old-school intensive floral scent with a bit of powdery notes but it is definitely not the worst thing I have smelled. In all honesty, it all depends on my mood. Some nights I'm not into slathering myself with this intensive lotion and I skip it while I do use the shower gel. Those times I opt for a neutral smelling cream or lotion. But I also have days when I'll take it with me and use it on my hands and arms. I will use both of them up, shower gel first since it is much milder and romantic. The body lotion is actually great regarding how well it moisturizes and softens the skin. It sinks in pretty fast and doesn't sit on top of the skin. The point is that I really cannot say that it makes me think of Japan or their rich pink gardens, it's just a regular floral to me. These products are not tested on animals and Bath&Bodyworks gets a big thumbs up from me for that.
Losion za tijelo sa mirisom japanskog cvijeta tresnje je jaceg mirisa od gela za tusiranje. Taj miris je sporni predmet rasprava na svjetskom nivou. Da li lijepo mirise ili ne? Misljenja se dijele i idu u ekstreme pa na jednoj strani imate ljude koji ce vam reci da je to najzenstveniji cvijetni miris koji cete pronaci, dok na drugoj strani cete cuti kako je starinski i da izaziva mucninu. Samo cu reci da nije bas toliko odbojan kako ga neki predstavljaju. To jeste starinski cvijetni miris koji je dosta intenzivan uz puderaste note ali uopste nije nesto najgore sto sam ikada pomirisala. Da budem potpuno iskrena, sve ovisi o raspolozenju. Nekih noci uopste mi ne pada na pamet da se mazem ovim jako namirisanim losionom i tada ga preskacem dok gel za tusiranje koristim. U tom slucaju odabirem kreme i losione neutralnih mirisa. Ali takodjer bude dana kada ponesem ovu bocicu sa sobom pa ga koristim za ruke. Iskoristiti cu i gel i losion s time da ce se gel za tusiranje prije istrositi jer je blazi i romanticniji. A sam losion kao losion je odlican po pitanju hidratacije i omeksavanja koze. Jako se brzo upije i ne osjetite ga na kozi. Poenta je sto zaista ne mogu reci da me asocira na Japan niti njihove bogate ruzicaste baste, jednostavno mi je obicni cvijetni miris. Ovi proizvodi nisu testirani na zivotinjama i Bath&Bodyworks od mene dobija za to veliku podrsku.
