I had ‘Club Tropicana’ from Wham! in my head all day so there – that's how we got the title of this post. Not getting too far ahead from the theme, I do have an amazing bath & body duo I've been obsessing over these past few weeks. I'm aware that coconutty things might not be the most appropriate scent while we're approaching winter and I don't know what's the weather where you're at but – in Sarajevo we're having quite a warm November. Although I was forcing my plummy nail polishes and all, I must say that I succumbed under the warm, shiny sun and got myself some bright nail polish + these creamy goodies. Kozmetika Afrodita is a terrific Slovenian brand that caters to most skincare (face&body) and hair care needs. I love the fact that their high quality products are widely available at affordable prices, feature mouthwatering but natural scents and they don't test on animals. I think that's a huge plus as I'd compare their shower gels/milks with those of Dove (they're soo soft and nourishing) but you do have a clear mind as they're absolutely gentle towards anyone and anyhting. The pair I got so crazy about is the one from the Kozmetika Afrodita Coconut Milk range. As I'm not the biggest fan of certain coconut aromas, let me tell you that this is such a subtle yet delicious coconut – everyone will love it! I'd describe the scent as a milky, cream base with a coconut souffle whippped in. It's not offensive, doesn't induce headaches (tested that myself) and I really love it.
Cijeli dan mi je pjesma ‘Club Tropicana’ od grupe Wham! u glavi – odatle inspiracija za naziv ovog posta. Ipak, koliko god asocijacija bila nasumicna, ne udaljavamo se previse od teme koju sam mu namijenila. Pripremila sam dvojac za tusiranje i njegu tijela koji me opcinio tokom posljednjih par sedmica. Svjesna sam da bi proizvodi kokosastog mirisa mozda bili prikladniji za koristenje tokom ljeta ali – ne znam gdje se trenutno nalazite niti kakvo je trenutno vrijeme kod vas ali u Sarajevu uzivamo u prilicno toplom vremenu za mjesec novembar. Iako sam po dolasku jeseni favorizirala sljivaste lakove i ruzeve, priznajem da sam popustila pod toplim suncem i posegla sam za lakovima u zarkim bojama + kokosastim delicijama. Kozmetika Afrodita je brend koji je sigurno poznat svim zenama sa naseg govornog podrucja ali i sire. Ono sto je mene privuklo njima jeste cinjenica da su im izuzetno kvalitetni proizvodi i k tome su jos dostupni po pristupacnim cijenama. Dostupnost im je takodjer jako dobra, mirisljave note su uvijek tu i proizvode ne testiraju na zivotinjama. Njihova mlijeka za tusiranje bih usporedila sa Dove tusiralicama po njezi koju pruzaju i kremastoj formulaciji no priznajem da mi je savijest cisca kada koristim Afroditine tusiralice jer znam da su njezne kako prema ljudima, tako i prema zivotinjama. Par koji je u mom srcu cisti favorit dolazi iz Kozmetika Afrodita linije Kokosovo mlijeko. Imajte u vidu da nisam strasna ljubiteljica mirisa kokosa u proizvodima za njegu ali dopustite mi da vam kazem kako je ovo tako jedan delikatan ali i slastan kokos za koji vjerujem da ce se dopasti svima! Opisala bih miris kao aromu koja pociva na mlijecnoj, krem bazi u koju je umucen sufle od kokosa. Miris nije napadan, ne izaziva glavobolje (licno sam tu tvrdnju provjerila) i meni se iskreno dopada.
Kozmetika Afrodita Coconut Milk Cream Shower Gel (250ml) is the perfect shower-anything you'll need this season or any time of the year, really. It's such a creamy, nourishing and non-drying product and it actually does everything I'd expect a shower gel/milk to do. It's of a white coloring and medium thickness, soft to the touch and not overly foaming – it's the ideal product to cleanse your body with + it's amazing for shaving as well. You can feel how hydrating it is already under the shower as the skin noticeably gets saturated with all the good ingredients so it becomes extremely smooth. I honestly don't even need a body lotion after using it but I imagine I'll still do that as the temperatures start to seriously drop. You can absolutely feel free of worrying about it drying your skin out as I can almost vouch that it will not. For all those ladies out there suffering from dry shins and other body parts come winter, the Kozmetika Afrodita Coconut Milk Nurturing Body Milk (250ml) will come off as a life saver. Also white in coloring and of a medium thickness – this body milk actually feels like a balm/cream type of product. It's absolutely divine, gets massaged into the skin beautifully and the word ‘nurturing’ suits it perfectly. What impressed me the most was the fact it leaves such an oil-free finish on the skin yet it nourishes it heavily. I rarely come by such a combo in a body lotion, especially body milk – quite unique! I believe most women will appreciate the fact this body milk is suitable for a fast application after which you'll be free to put on clothes or PJ's literally after application. And that's why in my house we're having a tropic vibe – thanks Afrodita for bringing those summer vibes over!
Kozmetika Afrodita Kokosovo mlijeko kremasti gel za tusiranje 250ml (cca 4,50KM) je krasna tusiralica koju cete pozeljeti koristiti tokom hladnijih mjeseci ali i tokom ostatka godine. Toliko je kremast, hranljiv i neisusujuci proizvod kojem je zaista tesko uociti manu jer u sustini cini sve sto bih pozeljela od jedne tusiralice. Bijele je boje, srednje gustoce, mekana je na dodir i ne stvara izrazitu pjenu. Potpuno je njezna i idealna za ciscenje koze + jako je zgodna i za brijanje. Efektnost po pitanju hranljivosti se moze uociti vec po koristenju pod tusem jer po nanosenju zasiti kozu svim hranljivim sastojcima i automatski je cini glatkom, svilenkastom. Iskreno govoreci, nakon tusiranja sa ovim kremastim gelom, uopste ne osjetim potrebu da namazem kozu nekom kremom iako vjerujem da cu to ipak ciniti kada temperature znacajnije opadnu. Ukoliko inace imate brige vezano za proizvode za tusiranje da vas nece isusiti, skoro pa vam mogu dati licnu garanciju da to ova tusiralica nece uciniti. Dame kojima su isusene potkoljenice i ostali dijelovi tijela briga tokom zime ce snazno zavoljeti Kozmetika Afrodita Kokosovo mlijeko hranljivo mlijeko za tijelo 250ml (cca 6,50KM). Takodjer bijele boje i srednje guste konzistencije – ovo mlijeko za tijelo mi je ostavilo dojam kao da se radi o balzamu/kremi. Fantasticne je teksture koju je zadovoljstvo umasirati u kozu a rijec ‘hranljivo’ vjerno opisuje njegovo dejstvo. Ono sto me mozda najvise impersioniralo je da na kozi ostavlja jedan nemastan efekat dok istovremeno pruza intenzivnu njegu. To je barem iz mog iskustva jedna prilicno rijetka kombinacija kada su losioni, posebice mlijeka za tijelo u pitanju. Vjerujem da ce vecina zena cijeniti mogucnost da se odmah obuku u odjecu ili pidzamicu nakon nanosenja sto omogucava brzo koristenje. Sada znate zasto u mom domu vlada tropska atmosfera – zahvaljujuci Afroditi koja je unijela komadic ljeta na pragu nastupajuce zimske idile!
