iShop4Beauty Review and Giveaway! [CLOSED]

I recently discovered a great cruelty-free company called iShop4Beauty through The Leaping Bunny Facebook page.  They are one of the newest companies to be certified by The Leaping Bunny Project, which means that they are entirely cruelty-free and do not test on animals.  This is something that's very important to me!  While I admit that I do, on occasion, purchase from big-label cosmetics companies who are not Leaping Bunny certified, I'm trying to stay away from companies that test on animals entirely.  There are so many cruelty-free companies out there, and iShop4Beauty is a great one!

iShop4Beauty's catalog is so extensive.  They cover everything from bath bombs to lotions to body scrubs...they really do have everything you could ever want!  I requested samples from them after The Leaping Bunny wrote on their Facebook page that iShop4Beauty was offering two free samples to anyone who requested them via email or phone (read more about that here).  I approached iShop4Beauty about a possible giveaway sponsorship after requesting my samples, and they very kindly agreed!  They even sent along some extra samples for me to review.  I'll talk about them first, giveaway details can be found behind the "read more."

The samples I got are in the photo above, minus one.  I forgot to include the Wild Honey & Orange Facial Cleanser.  From left to right, they are: Mandarin Orange Six Hour Lip Balm, Shea Body Lotion, All-Day Facial Moisturizer, Coconut Milk Hand Lotion, and a Lychee Fruit Six Hour Lip Balm.

These little lotions are so cute!  I really like the packaging, I think their design elements are simple and beautiful.  Both the Shea Body Lotion and the Coconut Milk Hand Lotion are nice and thick, which I really look for in a moisturizer.  They are lightly scented, so they're perfect for those who don't want an overwhelming fragrance.  I'm definitely going to be buying a full-sized bottle of one, if not both, of these in the near future.

The facial moisturizer is also excellent.  I'm careful about what I put on my face, because my skin is a bit sensitive.  I have that weird combination thing going on, where my skin is dry after washing my face, but oily on my T-Zone during the day.  I look for light, airy facial moisturizers and this one is perfect!  The scent is so lovely, on the bottle it says "Blossom."  This is also lightly scented, and goes on smoothly.  It doesn't feel greasy or heavy on my skin at all, and it gives me just the right amount of moisture.

I love me some lip balms, so I was really excited to open my package and find these.  I wasn't expecting them, so it was such a sweet surprise.  They both smell wonderful, but I really like the Lychee Fruit one.  Both are very sweetly scented.  The "Six Hour" title is appropriate, too.  These last quite a while, and absorb nicely into my lips.  They don't just sit on my lips with that waxy feeling that some mass-market lip balms have.

This is a picture of the full-sized Wildflower Honey and Orange face cleanser taken from the iShop4Beauty website.  The sample I got was an ample size, and will last me for at least a month.  This cleanser was very mild on my skin, which was great.  I have to be careful about cleansers, too, because some of them are too strong and leave my skin dry and flaky.  This one smells less sweet than I was imagining, but like the other products it's nice and light.  I was very happy with how this left my skin feeling.
