The most popular item from my Favorite Things of 2007 list was undoubtedly the Cleopatra Body Oil from Alqvimia . So today as a special Friday Feature, I want to talk about what they are about as well as a new product that they have just launched.
The heart of Alqvimia lies in Catalonia, in view of the Spanish Pyranees, where the plants are still gathered today. Alqvimia believes in empowering and bringing forth the inner beauty of women. The body and soul are treated as a whole and that is why it is a true hollistic beauty approach. Not only does Alqvimia recommend that their products be used for specific issues (e.g. pigmentation), they are also advised to be used for general enjoyment. Alqvimia emphasizes the importance of healthy eating (lots of fruits,veg and grains), and exercises that help to bring out our inner strength (such as yoga, belly dancing and Tai-chi). Now this hollistic approach may or may not appeal to you, their products can surely be enjoyed just because they are each formulated beautifully. Did I tell you that they make some of best quality natural products, in my opinion?
This gorgeous little red bottle is their newest creation called "Sensuality Body Nectar" and it is especially designed to enhance female sensuality (as the name implies). The liquid is a concoction of the essences of Bulgarian Rose, Jasmine from Mysore, Neroli from Morocco, Egyptian Geranium, Ylang-ylang from Indonesia, and Palmarosa from India.
I will surely be picking up a bottle of these soon!

I think Perfume is something very personal, because the skin effect is important.
Thank you for the information.
Awww that sucks that you don't have Sonia Kushuk over there! Good thing you get a chance to get them when you are here in the US, they are just awesome! I did a FOTD using the liquid mineral foundation which I will post soon.
Happy New Year!
Hi The seeker,
Oh I totally agree with you. I wanted to get the ange ou demon perfume but it smelled terrible on my skin. So writing about perfume is the most challenging task. You're welcome and thanks for dropping by!
Hey Vanessa,
Can't wait to see your FOTD on the Maybelline liquid mineral!
