LaROCCA Skincare - Cashmere And Black Truffle Body Emulsion - pics, swatches, review

Hello, Beautiful!

I have another fantastic product from LaROCCA Skincare to share with you in this post. This is their Cashmere and Black Truffle Body Emulsion. It was originally designed for men, but women can of course use it too. This product will help soothe sore muscles, aid in bruising and hydrates the skin. You need very little to get the job done.

LaROCCA Skincare Cashmere And Black Truffle Body Emulsion Review:
As someone who has lived with chronic pain for over 4 years now, I'm always open to trying new products to help with pain relief. This product really does help to soothe sore muscles - something I honestly was a bit skeptical about.

I used this on both myself and my husband. He too said he thought it was helping. Applying this after a bath or shower is best, when it can really penetrate your skin. You don't need to use a lot either; just a little will spread and melt into your skin. If you use too much it will just be too greasy and you'll waste it - so start off with just a little and add more if you need it.

Overall, a great healing and soothing product to give a try!

LaROCCA Skincare 24K Exfoliating Cream Cleanser & 24K Vitamin Repair Mist - pics, review

Hello, Beautiful!

I have two more LaROCCA Skincare products to share with you in this post. I swear, I'm addicted to this brand! I recently placed another order a little while back when they had a one-day 50% off sale to get their Pumpkin Fleur de Sel Body Polish in full sized, which I recently reviewed here (and I picked up a couple other products too - which I'll post on my blog in the future). In this post I'll show you their 24K Exfoliating Cream Cleanser and their 24K Vitamin Repair Mist. Their 24K line of products are fantastic!

LaROCCA Skincare 24K Exfoliating Cream Cleanser Review:
This creamy cleanser dissolves makeup, moisturizes and stimulates collagen growth, while having a natural and gentle exfoliant. Made with LaROCCA's revolutionary cellular gold complex, 24K gold energizes the cells while the green tea extract is a potent antioxidant and anti-inflammatory that leaves your skin smooth and radiant.

This was a nice, gentle exfoliating cleanser. It removed my makeup very nicely, felt good on my skin, and had just enough exfoliation to leave my skin feeling soft. There is a slight metal-like smell to it, which I assume is from the gold in the formula, but I don't mind it at all. This isn't the only cleanser I use, but it's one I enjoy using - especially since it has a nice shimmer quality to it  :)

Overall, yes, I'd recommend this and any LaROCCA product!

LaROCCA Skincare 24K Vitamin Repair Mist Review:
Help prevent aging by safeguarding your skin against environmental pollutant associated with daily life and from the sun's harmful rays. This ultra-hydrating mist cools the skin with active plant extracts while encapsulated bio-actives feed, refresh and revitalize skin cells to help renew its appearance.

I'll be honest, I don't use this as often as I probably should, but when I do I like the way it feels. I normally use this at night - spraying before or even after my moisturizer. It's also a great mist for after a workout or after being outside. It feels cooling and refreshing while adding moisture into your skin - a great mid-day pick-me-up!

Easy to use and easy to incorporate into any skincare routine, yes, I'd recommend!

LaROCCA Skincare Lip Shield Multi-Active Lip Balm Review:
I really love this lip balm! It goes on very smooth and creamy, providing instant hydrating and moisturization. It has a nice scent/flavor, although I can't put my finger on what it is; fruity is all I can describe it.

My lips are always very dry and chapped, which is a side effect from the medication I'm on, and some lip balms don't help at all but the LaROCCA Lip Shield always perfectly hydrates my lips and makes them feel smooth, soft and comfortable again.

The shade I have, Syrah, is a nice shimmery nude. There are other shades I'd love to try, like the shade Rose.

Overall, I would highly recommend this lip balm in clear or any of the shades!

LaROCCA Skincare Pumpkin Fleur de Sel Body Polish - pics, review

Hello, Beautiful!

I love body scrubs, and really any scrub (face or body). I also love the LaROCCA Skincare line, so it's no wonder that I love their Pumpkin Fleur de Sel Body Polish. It smells like pumpkin pie! My husband loves the way this smells too. I only have a small sample jar, but I plan to buy the full sized version.

Check out my pics, swatches, stats, and review...

LaROCCA Skincare Pumpkin Fleur de Sel Body Polish PRO's & CON's:
PRO's: gentle but effective, smells like pumpkin pie
CON's: if you don't like pumpkin scented things you won't like this

Basic Stats for LaROCCA Skincare Pumpkin Fleur de Sel Body Polish:
Formula: a
Cost/Availability: $35.00 (6.76 oz full size). Available on the LaROCCA Skincare website and everywhere else LaROCCA is sold.
Packaging: rounded jar with twist-off lid
My Rating: 4 out of 5 Kisses


Formula:
This sea salt body scrub is made with pumpkin and cinnamon, which gives it a great pumpkin pie scent. Rough enough to scrub away dry, rough skin, while stimulating circulation, but gentle enough to feel like a spa treatment in your shower. Leaves your skin soft, smooth and glowing.

LaROCCA Skincare Pumpkin Fleur de Sel Body Polish Review:
When I opened this sample jar I immediately could smell the delicious pumpkin scent with the hint of cinnamon. To me, it reminded me of Thanksgiving or the holidays; a very comforting, soothing scent. I loved how it smelled, so I of course made my husband smell it. He loved it too - and loved the way my skin smelled afterwards.

This body scrub is rough enough to get rid of all your dry skin, but gentle enough to not hurt. It feels like a spa treatment in my shower. I wish I had a full sized jar at this very second because I love this so much and I'm now completely out of my sample jar. I plan to buy the full sized version very soon, once my beauty budget opens up a bit.

After I washed this scrub off my skin felt super soft and smooth. I couldn't stop touching my skin to feel how soft and smooth it was. Sure, I do that normally after every body scrub, but this one was extra good. I loved it!

Overall, yes, I would recommend this scrub!
