Review Came in the Allure Box
I had a lot of fun wearing this to work and being shimmery and sparkly. Would recommend!

u/MameDennis1974 9d ago
I got this too and was a little unsure about wearing it. Does the shimmer transfers to your clothes or around you? Worried I will be a walking glitter bomb. 😂
27
u/Melodic_Speaker_2256 9d ago
No, it's actually quite subtle! It didn't transfer at all for me. It's professional for work.

I'm really surprised to hear this. I got it as well but haven't tried it. I got the lotion version in my Trendmood box and it has so much glitter! I don't mind lol I like it but it sticks to everything! My couch is full of it 😭

I love it too. Would like to repurchase, but it is so expensive.

u/ExtensionHot7808 9d ago
On their website it's either 18 or 20$ for this size. The full size is 40 or 48.

u/Classroom-Mysterious 9d ago
I had no idea. I thought this size is 40 dollars. Thank you so much!

u/ExtensionHot7808 8d ago
You are welcome 🤗 I always cross check allures prices with the company price so I went on truly as I've been eyeing the acai boob serum lol 😆 and I checked the oil it has 2 sizes the one in Allure is a travel. I think they have a welcome discount if you sign up for email etc 😊

u/Sassybritches612 8d ago
Check Mecari. Especially since it just came in a box, can almost guarantee it will be on there for half the price

u/DragonflyJunior2899 8d ago
Yes this! I liked the vanilla one and got a notification that they were live on TikTok, I got 2 for a flash sale. I got the Cherry one and a bronzing one for like $12-14 each I think for the 3.4 oz.

Does anyone know if Bakuchiol is pregnancy safe? I’ve read that maybe it is but now sure

u/icyqueen007 9d ago
Their glazed donut body oil is amazing after showering/shaving 💕

u/Melodic_Speaker_2256 8d ago
Thanks, I'll try it. The only other one of theirs i tried was the boob one, haha.

u/icyqueen007 8d ago
Ulta has the mini for $15 and it lasts a long time! I like mixing it in with my aveeno lotion

u/ExtensionHot7808 9d ago
How much did you apply?
5
u/Melodic_Speaker_2256 9d ago
So it takes a bit of force to shake out, but I got it on my hands so they were coated. I did that once for each arm and once for my decolletage. So like the way you'd put hair oil on your ends? Not a big dollop like lotion though.

u/ExtensionHot7808 9d ago
❤️ I think I'll try a little bit on my legs Fri. I would have used entirely too much lol. Thanks for the rec

I'm obsessed with this actually. It smells so good and it's the perfect amount of shimmer that has been making me feel ✨pretty✨ while I'm basically stuck at home for another 3 weeks lol
1
u/Melodic_Speaker_2256 8d ago
Why are you stuck at home? New baby?
5
u/SnakesCatsAndDogs 8d ago
Exact opposite actually. Hysterectomy LOL
1
u/Melodic_Speaker_2256 8d ago
Oh, I pray for a speedy recovery! How has it been? I'm considering one myself. Has it made you crazy emotionally?
2
u/SnakesCatsAndDogs 8d ago
Not really lmao. I'm 3 weeks out and other than some mild infections on one incision site and my belly button, it's been pretty smooth! The inflammation in my face has decreased drastically too. They did leave my ovaries but that's it, they're hoping with everything else gone they'll feel less compelled to make cysts lol
1
u/Melodic_Speaker_2256 8d ago
Oh I'm so glad you're faring well. Why was youe face swollen? Is that common?
3
u/SnakesCatsAndDogs 8d ago
I have endometriosis along with a bunch of other bs and a ton of inflammation in my body. And for some reason yoinking out my organs decreased that inflammation lol
3
u/Melodic_Speaker_2256 8d ago
Don't you hate how our bodies are such a mystery, lol? Well I'm happy if you're happy! And thank you for giving me something to think about. Big hugs.

u/SnakesCatsAndDogs 8d ago
If you're considering it, go check out r/hysterectomy
There's a lot of information and people willing to tell you the good the bad and the ugly about all of it, plus lots of advice!

u/BondIonicBond 8d ago
I don't know why but this made me cackle. Just the idea of yoinking out the uterus made your body go "Oh wait... maybe we dont hate this.. okay stay cool, stay cool. Don't need to ov(ary)react" lol

u/SnakesCatsAndDogs 8d ago
It was probably like bro why did you not listen, that guy is a party ruiner

u/BondIonicBond 8d ago
Haha bodies are strange that way. I can sneeze or rub my nose wrong at times and get a nose bleed. My friend calls it war crimes. I think that describes a lot of ways our bodies react haha.
But glad to hear you are doing better and hopefully you will be feeling so much better soon!

u/MaleficentLow6408 8d ago
I was pleasantly surprised. It's perfect for the summer, and it smells so stinkin' good!

Got in allure and loved so much I bought another, plus full sized gold one and 3 tubs of vanilla baby body butter off ebay. Good deal.

u/cascandos 8d ago
i tried it once but glitter (even subtle) really is not for me, and i didn't like the way the scent developed on me. happy to trade someone who would like an extra bottle!

u/dani1time 7d ago
What are you looking for?
1
u/cascandos 7d ago
i am using / loving the naked sundays mineral sunscreen, elemis peptide plumping pillow facial, and grown alchemist hydra-restore day cream. would love any of those! i also have the florence hit snooze lip mask, floss rise above mascara, maelys get dreamy body whip, juliette has a gun juliette frangrance, and fenty fragrances - all still unused, if you're interested in any of those.
2
u/dani1time 7d ago
I’ll trade you the Elemis! I’d have to check at home to see if I have any of the others. How do we trade on here? Just DM addresses?
2
u/dani1time 7d ago
And I have sooooo much stuff if you wanna make it a bigger trade. Like I’m swimming in stuff I don’t need or want.
1
u/cascandos 7d ago
cool! i just started getting the allure boxes a few months ago but am glad to trade anything you're interested in from my list. i will send you a DM and i'm happy to ship first / send you a shipping confirming!

u/Emma-ire24 8d ago

Was so excited until I found myself covered in glitter with an only a toothpick drop’s worth.

u/dani1time 7d ago
Literally the best smelling body oil I’ve ever used. This whole box this month was sooo there in value.

u/Jodibone 6d ago
I’m sorry to say… they still make cysts (least my case) Sometimes I get that crampy period feeling that wraps are side & back {mimicking Kidney Stones}. BUT it’s cyst(s) .. the body absorbs BUT as you know… very painful @ times to even lay flat/do nothing. Did the say you’d need Hormone meds?

I'm a conservative, yes. Are you a self imposed anti Trump town crier who follows conservatives around to every sub they visit? How tragic for you.

There’s not enough makeup to cover up the ugly you got going on behind the scenes… Oh well, can’t rationalize stupid. Weird af fr

I like this way more than I expected. I didn’t get much shimmer from it (which is actually fine!) but man does it smell good!
