Vecua Honey Wonder Honey Honey Dew Hand Creams 1

.

Today, my Stash Debut series, which highlights my first purchases from various brands/lines, focuses on Vecua Honey.

Launched in April 2011, Vecua Honey is a sister brand of the Japanese beauty brand Vecua. While Vecua (debuted in 2003) is a high-end brand sold in department stores and has a clean and sophisticated look (see my brand profile on Vecua), Vecua Honey’s image is more youthful, fun and whimsical. Vecua Honey’s products feature honey as well as other natural ingredients.

It happened again a few months ago but it did come back in stock, and I bought a few right away.

Cath Kidston Wild Rose Hand Cream 1

.

Launched in London in 1993, Cath Kidston has been a big hit in many countries. The signature Cath Kidston look is all about vintage floral prints which are colorful and sometimes with a bit of quirk. The brand also features a range of bodycare products (which are made by British toiletry brand Heathcote & Ivory, whose website also carries them), and today I am highlighting Wild Rose Hand Cream and Honeysuckle Hand Cream.
