Prior to this review I had never heard of Yardley London but
the women in my family informed me that the brand has been around for many years
and has been quite reliable for many generations. When I first tried the
products what came to mind was an elegant tea party in an English rose garden
because the fragrances are very delicate and floral.
Yardley soaps are crafted with essential oils and indulgent
skin softening ingredients that lather well and deeply moisturize. The English
Rose Luxury Soaps smell of summer with an evocative petal fresh scent. I will
admit to being very picky when it comes to bar soap, usually I don’t venture too
far from my comfort zone and I have been using the same brand for years. I was pleasantly
surprised that I enjoyed this calming, sophisticated aroma and the soaps are triple milled for a rich, creamy lather with an intoxicating musky fragrance.
Unlike
many soap products the English Rose bars don’t contain harsh sulfates that
strip the skin, they thoroughly cleanse with mild ingredients and Yardley
products are cruelty-free. The soaps are also available in new bath bars
including avocado, shea, almond, mango and lavender. The rose soap trio retails
for $18.99.
The iconic Lilly of the Valley collection includes:
perfume, soap, body wash, lotion and hand cream. The scent is an infusion of crisp
spring flowers, white pear, lily, freesia and a pretty musk base to awaken the
senses.
The Eau De Toilette smells like a vibrant bouquet and although the perfume is quite lovely it isn't really suited to my taste. I prefer fragrances that are a bit more youthful and modern and this scent is a bit mature for me. It would make a great gift for Mother’s Day and I’m sure my mother in law or
grandmother would think it simply divine! It retails for just $18.99.
The moisturizing body lotion has a natural, refreshing botanical
scent and a very light formula that hydrates well without leaving behind a
residue. The inclusion of Q10, antioxidants and vitamin E provide anti-aging
benefits and leave skin feeling soft, smooth and toned. The lotion also includes:
shea butter, grape seed oil and sweet almond oil to alleviate dry, rough skin and
help eliminate the effects of winter to get you ready for spring! It retails
for $14.99.
Yardley London can be found at Shoppers Drug Mart.
It has a very simple packaging that appeals to me! =) Thanks for sharing this product, I will keep a look out and see if Singapore has it so I can try them too~
