My boss really is the best boss ever! She knows I love pink, she knows I love beauty and skincare products and she knows I love Rituals! ❤
Isn’t she the best?
If you ever read this: thank you so much Tine! ❤
The Ritual of Sakura is my favorite Rituals Cosmetics collection, not just because it’s pink, (I do love their otther collections too, especially The Ritual of Mehr and The Ritual of Happy Buddha), but because of the amazing scent this entire collection has! The scent is best described as sweet, delicate and flowery, very femimine and really longlasting.
The Anti-bacterial Hand Foam looks like a liquid when it’s in the bottle, but when you press the pumping system on top of the bottle, it transforms into a foam that looks and feels really luxurious. The foam also makes my hand feel silky soft and smooth and makes them smell absolutely divine! I adore that scent! During times like this, I also really appreciate the fact that it has desinfective properties and kills 99,9% of all bacteria and viruses we carry on our hands.
The Instant Care Hand Lotion has the same divine Cherry Blossom and Rice Milk fragrance, but the scent is even stronger. When combining both products, you’re in for a real scent treat! The Hand Lotion does contain alcohol (though the Anti-bacterial Hand Foam mentioned above doesn’t), it absolutely doesn’t dry out my hands. Apart from the alcohol, it still contains 95% natural ingredients. After applying the Lotion, my hands are feeling soft and smooth and they smell amazing. As mentioned above, the scent is quite longlasting. The Lotion melts right into the skin and doesn’t make my hands feel greasy. You just need a small amount so it’s quite a longlasting product too.
Question:
What’s your favorite Rituals collection or product?
Azra Botanical Simplicity No Rinse Hand Cleanser Review
Hi guys,
During my quarantine, this No Rinse Hand Cleanser from Azra Botanical Simplicity was my best friend!
I was quarantained in my bedroom, to make sure my family didn’t catch Covid and I obviously spent most of my time up there alone. When I came downstairs for dinner, I always used this handsanitizer before touching anything. I was the only one that got sick, none of my family members did, so I guess we can say the Azra Hand Cleanser really did a good job!
The brand Azra Botanical Simplicity was created by Azra Secerbegovic, the owner of Beauty and Skincare Salon Aspa Den Haag, a beauty and skincare clinic in the city of The Hague, The Netherlands. Her mission was to offer a natural skincare routine which is both effective as simple, by combining high tech ingredients with natural ones. The Azra Botanical Simplicity skincare range contains only a few ingredients, to make sure they don’t cause irritations and can be used on any skintype, even the most sensitive ones. Obviously,I did receive some skincare products, but since catching Covid, I wanted to take a moment to tell you some more about their No Rinse Hand Cleanser too. I will get deeper into the skincare range very soon!
Some handsanitizers cause irritations to our hands. others are so greasy and sticky it feels uncomfortable. While the Azra No Rinse Hand Cleanser feels a bit sticky after applying, it doesn’t feel uncomfortable at all. The sticky feeling dissolves rather quickly, leaving your hands feeling clean and soft. It has a nice scent too, fresh and minty. I also experience a hint of some sort of clinical scent in there, caused by the alcohol it contains. While alcohol often causes the skin to feel dry, my hands aren’t feeling dry at all, because this hand cleanser contains glycerin, which ensures the hands not to dry out. It also contains Water Lily Extract, Peppermint Essential Oil, known for it’s aromatherapy properties, and Comfrey Extract, a medicinal herb that helps to protect and condition the skin.
A full list of ingredients is published on the back of the bottle.
The bottle is easy to use, thanks to the pumping system on top, and the slim design makes it easy to carry the bottle with you. My quarantine is over now, but I always carry my bottle of No Rinse Hand Cleanser in my bag, just to make sure I can clean and sanitize my hands at any moment!
With every purchase of Azra Botanical Simplicity No Rinse Hand Cleanser, Aspa Den Haag donates to the Emina Foundation.
