Perfect Pairings - Plum

     Unlike my last post BOTH of these items contain Plum in the scent. This will be a high/ low pairing, the scents compliment each other very well. 

 L'OCCITANE's Plum Blossom skin moisture gel - though it was the Garnier moisture gel which sent me scurrying to the loving arms of Cocoa Butter in February. I quite like this moisture gel, for one thing it actually moisturises and does not disappear within two minutes, leaving my confused as the whether I had moisturised my skin. It has a light consistency and spreads well, but it is not watery. 

Dove Go Fresh Plum and Sakura Blossom body wash - one thing I have noticed about Dove body washes which I have never noted, they lather really well. For products which contain 1/4 moisturiser they have alot of bubbling action going on. However even with the bubbling action, this body wash will eave your skin feeling clean and moisturised but not tight as you would from soap. 

Perfect Pairings - Berry Berry

This paring is a little more on the fruity side, but it is gorgeous. One thing I love and hate about Body Shop products is the lasting smell. However the love I have for lotions and potions which smell great far outweigh the hate. 

The Body Shop Raspberry body Scrub - gorgeous berry scent, a jelly like formula and the Raspberry seeds are not too harsh on the skin. 

     
     Dove go Fresh Pomegranate and Lemon Verbena scent body wash - to my nostrils this is the best complimentary body wash for this body scrub (unless you count the Raspberry shower gel from The Body shop) The body wash itself is gentle on the skin, especially in these harsh Arctic temperatures we will soon face. Like all other Dove body washes it is made with 1/4 moisturiser and in my opinion is a great low end substitute for shower cream. 

Perfect Pairings - Citrus Scents

These are just a few items from different ranges which I think complement each other scent wise. It can be so easy to get caught up and buy the whole range of product just for the smell. while I do love a bit of layering sometimes you do not have to break the bank to smell fabulous.

Dove go fresh Grapefruit and Lemongrass body wash (The original shower cream)
L'occitane Verbena Extra Gentle Soap (this is a huge bar which can easily be cut in two halves, to extend the life.)

The Body Shop Satsuma body butter - the smell of this goes a longgggggggggggg way, so use sparingly, the satsuma oil nourishes and relieves dry skin quite well. Be careful not to use this with the Lynx chocolate body wash or else you will wind up smelling like a confused Chocolate Orange. lol lol
