To be completely honest, I never use shaving cream! It’s something I have somehow gotten away without using over the years, and if I happen upon it in a Christmas stocking or a gift bag then I give it a whirl. I am never that girl who has hairy legs in the dead of winter. I MUST have shaved legs at all times! You never know when are going to wear a short skirt – even in the winter! This little vice of mine of keeping up on my grooming makes it even more suprising that I don’t have a shaving cream that I love or need.

When I was sent the eos Ultra Moisturizing Shave Cream in Vanilla Bliss, I really wanted to give it an honest try to see what all of the hype was about.

First of all – I love vanilla anything, so the Vanilla Bliss scent was a bonus! I also liked that the container had a great pump so it was easy to apply. When you are in the shower and working with razor blades, things need to be easy!

I really like that this shave cream doesn’t require water – now that is a time saver! I gave it a try and it worked well without water. In the shower was the best because the room filled with the vanilla scent which made me happy.

The shave cream claimed to moisturize for up to 24 hours, so I thought I would test this theory. I shaved one leg with just my regular razor, and my other leg using the shaving cream to see if there was a difference.

I hate to say it, but there really was a difference. One leg felt so much smoother and softer than the other – the one I used the shaving cream with. It seemed to keep moisture in for a whole day, which really surprised this girl who never uses shaving cream.

This shave cream is perfect for a girl on the go like myself! If you are headed out the door and need a quick touch up you can easily just add some eos Ultra Moisturizing Shaving Cream, do a quick shave and head out the door to whatever fabulous destination you have planned! Or if you are like me, maybe you are going no where fabulous, like just on a quick ice cream run but noticed you missed a spot on your legs – in those obsessive compulsive moments you don’t need to waste more precious moments worrying about it. Shave and go without water!

Unfortunately I now identify with those who think shaving cream is a must-have. I loved the smell, and how moisturized my legs were after shaving with it. It really impressed me, and now it’s part of my ever-growing beauty arsenal.

The eos Ultra Moisturizing Shave Cream also comes in Pomegranate Raspberry and Lavender Jasmine. So if you are looking to add something to that Christmas stocking I was talking about earlier, send a couple more flavours my way please! It retails for approximately $4.50 CDN.

Disclaimer: I was provided this product for review, but all opinions are fabulously my own.

You have probably seen the signature round eos lip glosses at some point since they are so popular, but did you know eos has also launched hand lotion as well?

I had no idea! I have many different flavours of the eos lip glosses, but I had no idea they had a hand lotion until it was sent to me last week.

What I loved right off of the bat was the container! It has a cute, stylish design, but it’s also compact at the same time. Usually when I am trying to fit things into a smaller purse, the hand cream never makes it due to space issues. In this case, I can finally bring it along with me!

The hand lotion had a cucumber fragrance, and it smelled nice and fresh! eos has two other hand lotion fragrances – Berry Blossom and French Flowers.

The lotion claims to have 24 hour moisture, and for me it proved to be very long-lasting. One evening I applied lotion, and I noticed after making dinner and washing my hands multiple times my hands were still moisturized. It was pretty surprising because usually I need to apply lotion after washing my hands – especially after a few times.

I do feel that now that I have been using it, I really need to apply less hand lotion than usual. When it came to my old hand cream I was applying it much more often – this one seems to moisturize more.

eos hand lotion is packed with nourishing shea butter, aloe, oats and antioxidants, and it is dermatologist-tested, hypoallergenic, has no animal by-products, and is Paraben-free and Gluten-free.

Overall I’m a big fan of the lotion, and I will for sure be replacing it once it runs out. It smells good, moisturized well, and fits into my smallest handbags.
