Body Wash and Body Lotion "Sugar Crush" by & Other Stories


For all of you who might haven't heard about it, & Other Stories is a clothes, accesories and beauty shop for women. It is owned by the H&M group and landed in Spain during the Spring in 2013. When I entered their shop in Barcelona, I couldn't imagine the amount of beauty products I was going to find. Soaps, creams, eyeshadows, nail lacquers, brushes... The wide range available pleasently surprised me, as well as the variety of colors and smells.

Furthermore, as its " big sister", cosmetics have a very affordable price. What makes it almost impossible not to be tempted to buy something . I bought a corrector palette, a brush and a contouring cream, which I will talk about in another post.

When I paid for all of the aboved, the salesgirl introduced in the bag two samples with travel size. A shower gel and body lotion with the name Sugar Crush. I usually keep this products for travelling (as the name suggests), but my curiosity about the brand made me use them as soon as I got home. The smell is like crushed brown sugar but it is accompanied by a citric scent that prevents it from being overly sweet.
 
The scent is intense while you are applying it, but when you come out of the shower it disappears. So, if you like that the scent lasts longer, this is not the right onw for you. If you really want the smell to remain on your skin, use the body lotion. It is very light and absorbs quickly so it is perfect to put on your clothes without having to wait for it to dry. For those of you who may have really dry skin I recommend you to look for another one.
 
Personally, I love the scent of this range and without any doubt I will buy them for future travels because they fit in any pocket of the suitcase. I think they are somehow different, away from conventional smell and their price is a point in their favor.
