I have been busy using lots of different products lately, but not blogging :/ Forgive me.

This week I tried a John Masters Organics Blood Orange & Vanilla Body Milk sample that I received with my most recent beauty.com purchase. I like Orange and I love vanilla so I thought this sounded wonderful. Essential Oils, certified organic, no artificial color, cruelty free, bio-degradable. Reasonably priced $18/8 oz. and comes with a pump. Sounds like my kind of product.

Here is the blurb from beauty.com

“At John Masters Organics, we are committed to using the finest, most therapeutic organic ingredients on the planet.

My Blood Orange & Vanilla Body Milk is a luxurious lotion that replenishes your skin with a quickly absorbing, delicate blend of milk thistle, aloe vera and sea algae.

Essential oils of pink grapefruit, bourbon vanilla & blood orange create a euphoric scent.”

I was very disappointed in the scent. The orange was too sharp and had an odd bitter note to it. The vanilla didn’t soften this out like it should have. Obviously not blended by master perfumers. It had a decent texture and seemed moisturizing enough. The dry-down was a little less sharp, but I still don’t like it much. This quickly came off my potential to buy list.
