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.

    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!
