YOUR SAY: Are you guilty of product hopping?

August 21, 2019 Paris B 2 Comments

I came across an interesting quote by UK dermatologist, Dr. Sam Bunting, in one of her videos. She says this – “Your skin does not need entertainment.”

I liked the quote.

It described me to a T. LOL!

This was Dr. Sam’s response to a question as to whether you have to change your skincare products from time to time. Her expert and professional view is that you should not product hop, or change products too often, so you can reap the benefits of each product you use.

Yet, how many of us are guilty of product hopping? *raises hands sheepishly* Are you?

When using the May Lindstrom The Pendulum Potion Complete Cleansing Oil, time slows

August 19, 2019 Paris B 3 Comments

I had a sample of the May Lindstrom Pendulum Potion when it was first launched. I cannot remember now how I came by it, but I guarded that little bottle with my life, because I loved it!

Yet, because it was so pricey, and May Lindstrom products became a little harder to come by on my usual shopping sites, I bided my time, using it sparingly.

But, I recently treated myself to the full-sized bottle, after coming across a website promotion that I couldn’t pass up on. It was one of the best purchases I’ve made to date 🙂

I think the Laura Mercier Rouge Essential Silky Crème Lipstick might be a lipstick wardrobe essential

August 16, 2019 Paris B 5 Comments

Laura Mercier has been busy revamping themselves recently, first with a new logo, then a new foundation, and now, a new lipstick! While I have struggled to appreciate the brand’s lipsticks in the past, I have to say, I really like the new Laura Mercier Rouge Essential Silky Crème Lipstick!

It’s no secret that my lipstick preference tends towards glossy, creamy and satin finishes. I struggle to work with matte-finish lipsticks. So, when a slew of new lip products were released this year by various brands, marking a shift away from matte textures, I sat up to take notice, after slouching in my seat, willing away the dry, heavy, matte-textured lip looks of the recent past.

And one that was interesting enough was this new offering from Laura Mercier.

Your Say: Do you feel that your skincare routine is something you prefer to do in private?

August 14, 2019 Paris B 4 Comments

I had an interesting discussion with a friend recently about the act of putting on skincare during your skincare routine, and whether it was something that people do, or are wont to do, in private.

It amused me enough, that I thought it would be interesting to see what YOU might think! 😀 After all, if you’re reading this post, and therefore my blog, you would be doing your skincare routine at least twice a day.

Do you prefer keeping that aspect of your life private, doing it in the bathroom, before emerging, like a caterpillar from its cocoon; or are you comfortable doing your skincare routine in front of someone else, be it a friend or significant other? Let me know! 🙂
