Summer just got sweeter with Lavanila Laboratories Vanilla Summer Roller Ball Perfume

June 11, 2012

Lavanila Laboratories Vanilla Summer Roller Ball Perfume

With Summer here everything is simply lighter, our carefree attitudes, less cumbersome clothing and of course we can’t forget our beauty routine. One area that I’m guilty of not switching up during the seasonal change is my fragrance. I usually just wear whatever I’m in lust with at the moment. But change is good and I’ve been playing with body sprays and looking for something that is playful and pretty for summer.

Enter Lavanila Laboratories Vanilla Summer Roller Ball, an all natural fragrance, free of toxic ingredients that happens to smell quite intoxicating. Lavanila uses sugar cane alcohol infused with pure essentials oils like Goji and grapefruit along with vitamins to give your skin a healthy boost. So this perfume is actually good for you to use, I love that!

During summer months the weather seems to always make me fantasize about exotic locations and days at the beach. And that is exactly what Lavanila had in mind when they created this scent. This beachy-vanilla scent is warm and inviting and softly lingers throughout the day. This scent is a nice addition to my summer perfume arsenal because its sweet yet not overpowering. Its ease to carry in your purse for those all so important end of day touch-ups. Housed in a square spill-proof bottle its ideal when traveling on the weekend when space in your tote is limited.

Do you change your fragrance every season?

Review: Lavanila, SPF Gets Healthy

July 24, 2010

Lavanila Healthy Sunscreen SPF 40 is a highly nourishing and safe alternative to chemical-laden formulas, the Healthy Sunscreen is developed with a new generation of natural mineral sunscreens that offer superior protection, youth-promoting antioxidants and immune supporting botanicals. Perfect for sensitive skin, the fragrance-free, ultra-sheer formula glides on smoothly with no white residue.

While many sunscreens contain PABA, parabens and synthetic fragrances Lavanila Healthy Sunscreen is 100% natural. This deodorant contains Shea Butter to soften, moisturize and protect as well as Green Tea which is a powerful antioxidant. Some of the healthy benefits are protection from UVA & UVB rays which cause sunburn, dryness and premature aging as well as botanicals and amino acids to help hydrate and replenish skin. This formula is non-coledogenic, clinically tested, biodegradable and not tested on animals.

This sunscreen felt incredibly light on my face, like I wasn’t wearing anything at all and it didn’t feel greasy. Many sunscreens for the face feel sticky to the touch but not Lavanila, there is also hardly any scent at all (which I can appreciate). I think that it’s important that a sunscreen is free of chemicals because over time chemicals can accumulate in the bloodstream and cause irritation or allergies. This one is certainly a winner!

Lavanila Healthy Deodorant is $28.00 for 1.8oz. and can be found at Sephora, Sephora.com or lavanila.com

Review: Lavanila Healthy Deodorant

July 20, 2010

Lavanila deodorant

I’ll admit that I was a bit hesitant to try out an all natural deodorant. With weather reaching well into the 90 degree mark I didn’t want to be the stinky hot mess on the subway. But being the brave beauty aficionado that I am I decided to take one for the team and give it a try. I applied my Lavanila Healthy Deodorant and hoped for the best as I walked out the door. Well at the end of the day I can say that I was not disappointed, no wet spots and no stinky underarm odor – score!

Lavanila created a deodorant that is 100% natural so it’s aluminum free and paraben free. Some of the healthy ingredients are Goji Berry which is a powerful anti-oxidant, Japanese Honeysuckle which is an antibacterial and anti-inflammatory agent and aloe which soothes and hydrates the skin. With all of these healthful ingredients I knew that my skin would be pampered and nourished.

Lavanila Natural Deodorant

Lavanila comes in 4 scents: Vanilla Lavender, Pure Vanilla, Vanilla Grapefruit and Vanilla Coconut. I tried the Pure Vanilla scent and I must say that honestly it didn’t smell like vanilla which was a bit disappointing. The deodorant has a clean scent to it but even after application and when I checked later in the day I could not detect any vanilla scent at all.

Lavanila Healthy Deodorant retails for $18 and can be found at Sephora.
