Vardi & Migdal - Peach & Wild Flower Body butter

Recently I have participated and have won the contest held by samplestore.com in their facebook page.
Wow!! Finally I have received my Vardi & Migdal body product: the Peach & Wild Flower Body butter =)
Vardi & Migdal was established in 2006. Their sole aim is to achieve high quality skincare that cleanses and heals tired skin by combining nature’s minerals with the science of skincare. Many of their products are infused with minerals from the Dead Sea, known for some of the most fascinating healing and therapeutic properties which includes soothing of common dermatological ailments, repairing and regeneration of the skin and body.
Vardi & Migdal - Peach & Wild Flower Body butter - 350 ml

Riched with natural ingredients and essential oils, our body butter is specially formulated to maximize skin hydration. With its natural thickness, this ultimate moisturizer helps to hydrate dry skin and restore its healthy glow, leaving it feeling soft and luxurious all day.

Directions:

Massage daily into your entire body after bath. Concentrate on elbows, knees, ankles, hands and other dry areas.
Vardi & Migdal - Peach & Wild Flower Body butter is made in Israel and comes in generous tub of 350 ml which can last me at least 2 months =)
Trying out Vardi & Migdal - Peach & Wild Flower Body butter on my skin.


My skin after using Vardi & Migdal - Peach & Wild Flower Body butter in just 1 application:

My review:
After shower, one should use body butter as water soaking into the skin will dry it out and crack it. Using body butter will help to keep the skin moisturized and lock the water and bad moisture out of your skin =) Vardi & Migdal - Peach & Wild Flower Body butter is a luxurious body cream, I like its sweetness and freshness fruity scent, after application, although abit sticky at the beginning but skin feels instantly hydrated and heavenly soft and supple ^_^Ladies, remember to take care of our body skin too!
