Dessert for the Hands: Concentrated Oak Milk, Shea Butter and Marshmallow Root Extract

This product advertises that it’s “totally-to-die-for,” so I had to check it out to see if it was worth the hype. I don’t usually use hand cream, just because I can’t stand when my hands are oily when I’m trying to do something, but I brought CAKE’s MILK MADE VELVETEEN HANDCREAM to work with me one day to use after the not-so-great smelling soap in the bathroom.

I really liked this product. It’s silky, makes my hands smooth, doesn’t leave them too oily and smells delicious! Enriched with concentrated oak milk, shea butter and marshmallow root extract, Milk Made is vegan and paraben, phthalate and GMO free. $5.99 for 60ml. I don’t love very sweet smelling things so it wasn’t my favorite scent in the world, but I liked it for what it was.

I give it 4 kisses, just because I wasn’t in love with the scent, but everything else about it was great!

Instant Glow Inspired by the Nordic Phenomena Known as the Midnight Sun

Here’s the deal: I don’t use frosted highlighter very often because I can’t stand the way it looks on “older” eyelids. But NOMAD’s STOCKHOLM MIDNIGHT SUN HIGHLIGHTER changes the game. 

I only use it at night when I’m going out with a full face of makeup – and even then I only put a tiny dot in the inner corner of my eye. That being said, this product will probably last a lifetime because I use it so seldom. 

This smooth, blendable powder is free of parabens, phthalates, mineral oil, talc and gluten – and Nomad infuses it with blackcurrent extract for a light-gold, “champagne” glow. $17. 

It did a fantastic job, so I give it five kisses.
