So its two shower creams????

I thought it was one shower cream and one body lotion???

According to Keeley's blurb on FB it is shower cream and body lotion so I think QVC have taken the photo wrong using two shower creams by mistake!!!

I would agree with this - they aren't going to send out samples of the body lotion/cream and put it on the postcard if it wasn't in the collection.

I never throw products away if they look & smell ok. I don't pay any attention to the use by dates.

 

[warwa100]

I thought the exact same thing & it arrived today - the body cream sample smells AWFUL! Like an old lady. Almost bitter, or lavendery? So herby - I really don't know what the smell is. Awful though. No sale.

I'm in total agreement - I did get a sample today and I put it on after my shower tonight. I'm sat in bed & I can smell it all over me. I don't hate it, but I certainly don't rate/like it enough to want to buy it & apply it to my skin again.

What?! I don't want to smell like an old lady!

Nor me! I thought i would definitely be going for this but not so sure now. I note the shower cream gets mixed reviews on Q's website where it is sold with the cleansing balm. Surely it can't be that bad!?

Looks like it will stay on the website until it's launch on Sunday now (I'm thinking this because it says 'special price').

I'm going to try the body lotion again tonight and then decide if I'm buying it or not. Although I am heading more towards no and when I need products that are in the collection, I'll just buy them individually.

I have just ordered. I picked the Ultra Rich, as after reading around it is for normal/dry mature skin and good if the skin is feeling under the weather of in fact winter time.

What?! I don't want to smell like an old lady!

As a member of a number of perfume forums, the term old lady is vintage classic say No5,Dior, Guerlain or YSL or some such. What you are thinking cat pee and unwashed 80 year old?

Unfortunately many are so used to smelling like fruity sugary sweet, they call classic Audrey Hepburn fragrances old lady.

The Liz Earle fragrances would be classed as old lady by many

I would have liked to smell the new products before ordering but I've not had the card for some reason. I normally get them. So I think I'll take my chances and go for it anyway, the only Elemis fragrance I haven't liked is Revitalise Me so I should be safe with this.

I guess everyone has a certain "image" concerning smelling like an old lady. By the way, I don' t like those sweet, fruity fragrances at all.

 

[donna255]

Going by the shower cream which I have smelt. To me its a fresh garden floral smell.

 

[Ani]

Sounds good!

 

[Fallen Angel]

Just ordered mine, gone for the Ultra Rich option as I've not tried it before.

 

[donna255]

If you want you better move fast. Keeley has now put it up on her Facebook page and I expect QVC to pull it shortly as too many will rush to buy.

 

[Jackanory]

I do love Elemis but I am going to restrain myself this time, although there is lots in the kit I think spending £60 on skincare/body products is silly money, and I am not swayed by the Easipay as I am getting fed up of losing track of what is going out of my account each month, especially when payments are spread out over 4 months.

 

[Jabbathehut]

I ordered 1 ultra rich option, but after thinking about it I cancelled my order and placed an order for 2 uOur rich, as no doubt m hubby will steal the cream

[loveheart]

I'm not buying this time. I wouldn't use the cleanser and toner and I think I am still paying off the last TSV on EP's.
