AMSTERDAM
REVIEW BY ONLINE FASHION STORE
Amsterdam is Van Gogh, Anne
Franck, its canals, its barges, its zen and ecological way of life with its
many bikes, trams and organic markets ... But it is also a city teeming with
good shopping tips. I took advantage of a short weekend in Holland in Amsterdam
to bring back some local cosmetic beauty products (or almost).
I relied on my guide as
well as on the opinions of both who certify that the care products made in
Holland are of excellent quality, to buy the eyes closed a cream, a milk and an
exfoliant for the body from Hema . This brand is somewhat the equivalent of
Monoprix in France and also manufactures its own beauty products.
My three purchases from the Hema store ... Above Scrub Gel & Body
Lotion and below, Body Cream.
In fact, I would have done
better to take a look at the composition of two products because, they contain
ingredients not recommended not to say dangerous for health like PEG
(Polyethylene Glycols which can cause allergies, acne and are suspected
carcinogens *) and PPG (propylenes Glycols are a cosmetic form of oil used in
the brakes, hydraulic fluids and industrial antifreeze *). I was quite
surprised to find their presence in Scrub Gel (an exfoliant) scented with
Magnolia from the Hema store but also in Little Diva milk bought at the Douglas
perfumery . The name of the treatment and its design are absolutely attractive,
hence my curiosity to try it.
These two disappointments
aside, I also set my sights on Hema on Body Lotion (a sweet milk for the body)
flavored with Magnolia and on Body Cream , a body cream with Sweet Almond Oil
and Milk Protein.
Finally, at the Douglas
store , I couldn't help but succumb to the English fruity cosmetics brand I
Love…which I've heard a lot about, with body butter and scrub, both flavored
with Mango and Papaya.
I am delighted with my
purchases! Already, I did not splurge since the most expensive product cost me
€
7.95 but also, my tests are
relatively conclusive for such inexpensive skincare beauty products. I will come back
to these cosmetic discoveries in future articles…
And you, have you fallen in
love with beauty products at your holiday resort?
