What’s in your mind about “vanilla”?
Me? I’m thinking of ice cream
(and many different mouth watery desserts)
Anyway, I bought Vanilla Praline
Facial Cleanser at Alila Spa and then I learnt the benefits of vanilla to skin.
Vanilla is not a monopoly ingredient for food industry. Vanilla has been widely
used in pharmaceuticals industry as it has a great antioxidant,
anti-depressant, anti-carcinogenic and aphrodisiac properties. Vanilla in skin
care products could help to restore damaged skin as well as to prevent skin
from pollutants and toxins. As it has sedative property, vanilla is relaxing –
read: vanilla calms brain, relaxes muscles, and promotes sleep. Amazing!
After using the vanilla cleanser
from Alila Living for more than 2 weeks, so I think it’s safe now to share my
experience:
Ingredients:
Benefit: Irresistible and smooth
creamy cleanser, powered by nature
Detail:
I use this vanilla cleanser twice
a day, in conjunction with other Alila Living products – Pure C Serum and
Indian Fig Finishing cream (link). I just love this cleanser as it’s creamy but
not heavy and thick. It contains kind of moisturizer so that this cleanser
doesn’t dry my face. It smells like a combination of vanilla and tamarind –
sweet sour kind of thing. My husband doesn’t like the smell but it doesn’t
bother me as this cleanser makes my skin looks soft and healthier. It also
makes my skin tone more even. The elegant black glass bottle with pump makes it
easy to dispense. Be careful if you want to bring this cleanser for traveling.
Mine was spilled over my luggage on my way back to Jakarta from Bali and left
me two third of the bottle.
One important thing: As this
cleanser is exclusively made by Sensatia Botanicals for Alila, this product is
only available in Alila Living store in all Alila Hotel, Resort and Spa.
Drawback: nope
Ah, I want my vanilla ice cream
now….
