Awesome Products from "Product Body"

It's rare that I buy other people's skincare products, especially if it is something I can formulate on my own. That said, I've followed Joanna Schmidt of Product Body online for a couple of years and secretly lusted after her creations. With awesome product names like "Crush on You" and creative fragrance offerings like "Ruby Red Rockstar", I had to get in on what everyone else was talking about.

I purchased the following items from ProductBody.com:

Crush On You in "Beach House" - "Crush On You is like nothing you've ever felt (unless you've run your hands through a bowl of extra moist sugar cookie batter)." Exactly as described, this emulsified sugar scrub moisturized without leaving my skin greasy. The summery "Beach House" fragrance reminded me of Pina Coladas on the beach.

Cubano Bar Soap - "Deep, rich chocolate, served with a shot of Cuban espresso and a dollop of steamed vanilla bourbon." I really wanted to eat this soap bar, but refrained in a feeble attempt to not relive my childhood. My shower smelled like deep dark, delicious Cuban coffee for weeks! I was entirely depressed when the last sliver met it's death down the drain.

Perfume Sampler Set - "Product Body's perfume oils are hand blended with fractionated coconut oil and jojoba oil." I'm really picky about perfume. Too many leave me with a headache and more regret than a college weekend spent bar-hopping. To my surprise, I fell in love with two of Product Body's vegan scents:
  • Iniquity - Deep chocolate, smoky sandalwood, with a whisper of crushed almonds. Dark, mysterious....
  • Mazu - Coconut milk, lemongrass, blackened vanilla, crushed Indonesian lime leaves, smoky clove, a whisper of jasmine and a tiny hint of dark musk.
Rumor has it a new unisex scent, Lounge, debuts soon! Description from Joanna's blog:
"Lounge smells like a warm and comforting combination of real, worn in leather, amber, sandalwood and black vetiver. "
If you are looking for high-quality skincare in amazingly unique scents, check out the offerings at Product Body...they won't disappoint!
