O.P.I: Turn up the Juice! (Skin Quenchers for Hands and Body)

O.P.I: Turn Up The Juice; Avojuice Skin Quencher Flavor Pack

Flavours/Scents: Jasmine, Coconut Melon, Mango, Cran & Berry, Violet Orchid, Apple Pie Spice

Each 30mL

Bought this delicious pack a few weeks ago for $10. (Please note: I have seen the same set being sold for up to $25, and there are a number of sets with different smells). Had a good idea of the benefits the product offers as have used O.P.I's avojuice products in the past. Overall, love the product! The products are moisturizing and have really helped me avoid dry hands - dry hands is a problem for me (leads to cracks and super itchiness). I do find them a tad oily, but this usually dries up relatively quickly. Also, the 30mL bottles are the perfect size for chucking in your pocket, bag or car for moisture on the go. They fit perfectly in the chest pocket of my bush jacket, so now they even come on the farm with me!

In the past I've been really useless at using hand creams on a regular basis, but with these, I love the smell of them so I want to always have the smell of at least one of them lingering around me.

I don't usually paint my nails as I find that my lifestyle usually means they chip really easily, but I applied some lotion to my nails and surrounding skin before and after I painted them for an event and it made my cuticles and those little bits of skin that stick out on the side of the nail so much softer and easier to deal with.

 Now, on to the individual products and scents. 

Mango

If you remember sipping a chilled orange and mango cool change at primary school, this is for you. Smells exactly like the juice of my childhood! They named it mango for a good reason. A sweet yet crisp smell.

Jasmine

A very perfume esk scent. For some reason the first thing that came to mind when I smelt it was my boyfriends cologne which is Homme by Joop. A smooth floral scent. Still quit sweet.

Violet Orchid

I'm not too familiar with the orchid scent, but this is extremely pleasant! I feel that it could be passed of as a blueberry or grape (or a mix of the two) scent. Not as sweet as the previous too lotions. However, quite smooth like the jasmine.

Cran & Berry

Surprisingly a good mix of the two scents. Originally I thought the other berries over powered the cranberry, but there is a somewhat sour scent in there. Sweetness would be on the same level as the mango lotion.

Coconut and Melon

So far I have used this lotion the most (while I have been back at university) as it's the least confronting scent of the lot. The coconut is definitely there, but not so much the melon. Doesn't have the sharp smells like that of the mango and cran & berry lotions. It kind of just drifts into nose. 

Apple Pie Spice

Smells exactly like an apple pie! I'm not sure how dramatically apple pie recipes change from country to country, but when I think of a NZ apple pie, this is what I get. Red apples, cinnamon and brown sugar. This one is quite full on and an almost odd scent for body lotion, so only really use it when I'll be around home for most of/all the day.

In conclusion...

I love this product. Seeing as I only use around half a pea each time I apply it, I'm expecting the collection to last a long time. If you can get it cheap like I did, I would definitely buy again, but maybe not at the $25 price range.  

It would be an awesome gift instead of just giving someone a single product they may not like. You can find 200mL versions of most of these as well. I know you can buy the avojuice range at Farmers, but I have struggled to find any other stockists.
