In the royal palaces of Central Java, princesses who were about to get married indulged in this special skin treatment, which served to beautify, soften and sweeten her skin. Asian Secrets Lulur Whitening Body Scrub is a blend of traditional herbs that evens out and lightnes skin by gently exfoliating the top layer to expose the younger, more supple skin underneath it. It contains Vitamin E and Green Tea extract, powerful antioxidants that protect your skin from free radicals to keep it healthy and young-looking. It also contains Squalene and Olive Oil that help maintain moisture on your skin. You can now enjoy all the whitening, softening and beautifying benefits of the lulur treatment in the comforts of your own home."

C.O. Bigelow Rose Wonder Cold Cream

I discover this when I was on the hunt for the Triple Rose Water and I must say this works really well as a makeup remover, for eye makeup, foundation, lipstick even sunscreen. it doesn't have petrolatum or mineral oil, suits my skin so well. And because its Bigelow its multi-purpose! I use it as a leave on moisturizer,  it's more of a balm consistency and less of a cream though.

INGREDIENTS: squalane, water, beeswax, ceresin, rosa damascena flower water, sodium borate, butylene glycol, rosa centifolia flower extract, santalum album (sandalwood) extract, jojoba esters, acrylates/C10-30 alkyl acrylate crosspolymer, disodium EDTA, alcohol denat, phenoxyethanol, methylparaben, ethylparaben, butylparaben, propylparaben, isobutylparaben
