Sort of Skincare Saturday: Bliss Fabulips and High Intensity Hand Cream Reviews and Pictures

This Bliss Santa's Little Helpers set came out for this past holiday season; Neiman Marcus still had it in stock online when I ordered my Deborah Lippmann polish, and I figured it was worth getting to check out, since I'd heard good things about the balm, and I'm always happy to try new hand cream! The set was $11 and had 1 oz of the hand cream and a full size Fabulips. The hand cream is $8 for 1 oz ($18 for 2.5 oz), and the Fabulips balm is $16, so I got a big discount, which makes me feel somewhat better about my mixed results with the products.

Skincare Saturday: Bliss Fabulous Face Lotion with SPF 15

I got a sample of this with some Sephora order awhile ago and thought it time to finally share my thoughts. They haven't changed in the last, oh, 6 weeks, but I always had something more interesting to review for Skincare Saturday so I'm only now getting around to it!

Things I like about this moisturizer: it absorbs pretty quickly, it smells like grapefruit (yummy!), helps control my oilies, offers some sun protection

Things I don't like about this moisturizer: it breaks me out.

It's a pity, really, because the feel and scent of the product are really pleasant! It gives moderate moisture; if you have dry skin (rather than normal/combination/oily) it probably wouldn't be enough, but for me it worked really well. Minus the whole breaking out thing, anyways. Yet another product that goes into my "to give away" bag!
$36 for 1.7 oz, available from Sephora

Wow, that may be the shortest review I've ever written! Way to go, me.
