J. R. WATKINS Hand Cream- WOW!!!

For hand cream, I don’t know why I am not fond of popular brands like L’Occitane or Crabtree and Evelyn. They are nice especially the scents, both are very aromatic and soothing; but the texture aren't so impressive (to me..). Plus, I believe there are good quality hand creams out there with more friendly price tag. Luckily, one day I was in a whim of getting the J. R. WATKINS’ lotion while shopping with my friend, and who knew, I liked it a lot! Later on I got this sample hand cream from a different friend…and WOW!! This is an even better product! I especially love the texture of the cream. It seems thick but when using it on hands, it spreads so easily and dries fast without any oil/cream residue (even when you rub it). It is more like a thin layer of wax on your hands after all. Also, because I use keyboard all day long, this cream won’t make the keys greasy!




This one I tried is Aloe & Green Tea. Smells very refreshing. But, since I like herbal/earthy scent better, I will get the lavender one in near future.

Perfect Little Thing- AQUIS Hair Wrap

For people who have long hair knows that to wait for your hair to dry can mean a lot of inconvenience (at least for me it is). Water dripping everywhere, towel not absorbent enough my head is cold or towel getting loose while I toss and turn reading on my bed. Plus, blow dry hair right after wash takes a long time and it is not good for the hair anyways.
Long story short, to avoid all that, many people use hair towel wrap. I have found the one I am using now from company AQUIS is the best among all. It is made of microfiber and the fabric is in “waffle” texture. This design/technology does wonder. It is not only absorb water fast, also vaporize from the towel quickly. So the towel is damp but never “wet” and never made my head cold while wearing it. I think that’s what impressed me the most, no feeling of wet and cold while waiting for my hair to dry. What a perfect little thing that makes my life much better!!
