L'OCCITANE en Provence (& Giveaway Winners)

Back in November when I was staying in New York City for the Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows Premiere, our hotel had some great products for us to use. It was a brand that I had never heard of, L'OCCITANE en Provence. The moment I used the lotion, shower gel, shampoo and conditioner I was in love! The products smell great and leave you feeling clean and fresh! We even found a retail store in NYC while we were walking around so we were able to try a few of the other scents and products. I really liked the Shea Butter Hand Cream, but sadly it was $26. [Off topic: I wore my McQ Dress and Moschino Blazer that day and the employees were all asking me about them, haha...I felt cool ;)]

The products we had in our hotel were the Verbena scent, which I think smells like lemon PEZ, mmmm. I found out that it is a limited edition item so if you like that scent, snap it up quick! The stuff is a bit expensive, but the product works so it's worth it if you like lotions. The travel sizes are $8 each.

Make sure to check out the site and see all the great scents they have! When you order you get 2 free samples as well as a free gift wrapping kit. AND right now they are having a promotion where you get free shipping on orders over $40!

They are also having a promotion if you sign up for their newsletter you get an exclusive Best of Loccitane welcome offer, free with your next $25 purchase, exclusive promotions and special VIP store events, be entered to win a trip to Provence and more.

The randomly picked winners of the 500 Followers Giveaway are Rebecca, Courtney Erin, Lydia, and Laura. I will be emailing each of you shortly so you can decide which prize you want. I'm emailing in the order above so the last girl will get what's left (but they are all good prizes so hopefully you won't be disappointed). This also means it may be a little while before the last 3 get emailed depending on how fast the others reply ;)

You are supposed to steal the shampoos from hotels, that is what they are there for!
And now that you know you like it, you can always ask for it for your birthday, and other such gift giving holidays...

Ah, yes L'Occitane is one of my favorites! I think it was the Four seasons that had this brand as the amenities too, and ever since I stayed there, I've loved the lotions and soap. I may have taken a few extra home too. :) xo

Congrats to the winners. Occitane is a great brand though I confess to using it very rarely 'coz of the cost.

I love l'Occitane too, we used to get it free at work sometimes and I only just finished using one of the perfumes, I think it was Cote d'Azure... I'm onto their Cherry Blossom one now as a friend gave it to me. Definitely a great find, all their stuff smells fantabulous!
