Whether you’ve been Naughty or Nice there is a Lilin + Co Christmas Candle with your name on it

November 30, 2018 Paris B 2 Comments

Some days, you trot out your Diptyque and Jo Malone scented candles. On other days, you luxuriate in a beautiful scented room, without having to sell an organ or a limb LOL! I can safely say that one of the better locally made, affordable soy scented candles I’ve encountered to date is by Lilin + Co. I’d told you about them before this so you can have a little read.

I recently met the owner at a local bazaar, where she (I believe) took a chance to call out to me, and we had a nice short chat. It’s always nice putting faces to names in email! 😀 They do sell at the artisanal bazaars around the Klang Valley like Riuh, so keep a lookout for them, if you go there. You can have a sniff at the candles, so you know what to expect.

Not long after, she offered for me to try their special edition Lilin + Co Naughty or Nice Christmas candles. and I must say that they are quite lovely! Lilin + Co have also kindly offered a discount code, so if you still need to finish off your Christmas shopping, or just want to buy something nice for yourself to help you cope with the year-end stress (I often feel more stressed and frazzled at the year end than at any other time of year!) this is your chance! 😉

The Alpha-H Beauty Sleep Power Peel is a transformational overnight treatment like a sleeping mask on steroids!

November 28, 2018 Paris B 19 Comments

Sometimes, all it takes is a little prod from someone for you to discover something transformational. I’d owned and used the Alpha-H Beauty Sleep Power Peel for a while, but didn’t have much of an opinion on it. Then, reader Maja left me a comment reminding me of it a few months back. So, I dug it back out and used it a little more diligently.

And then, I was quite quite blown away! 😀

If your skin can tolerate glycolic acid and retinol, then this product is one I recommend you try for a few reasons. The primary reason of course, being that it truly does transform the skin to softer, smoother, brighter skin with a more radiant complexion. But you must be diligent – as with everything 🙂

Before you throw out your clutter consider first making this one small change in your life

November 26, 2018 Paris B 34 Comments

I’m not a very neat person. I don’t have a creative eye when it comes to interior decoration or design so I live in what is a fairly servicable, simple environment that isn’t Instagram or Pinterest-friendly. But I confess to having a bit of a bad habit – I’m prone to clutter and hoarding.

Perhaps it is the environment in which I’ve grown up. My parents and grandmothers rarely threw anything away unless it was completely broken down, broken or just unusable. Even then, it would be cannibalized for useable parts, before finally conceding defeat.

Perhaps also due to their life and times they grew up in, they’ve usually found it hard to say no to freebies. If there is an offer to buy 3 packs of toothpaste to get a free plate, you bet we’d end up getting that free plate LOL! Sometimes, in different designs. Our dining crockery is rarely a perfectly matched set. It is usually a hotch-potch of different free plates and bowls accumulated over the years. And never thrown away.

For some reason, these free stuff can be very hardy! LOL! 😀 I know some of you can relate 🙂

Perhaps it’s just me – a hoarder 😛

I still have random freebies, sitting alongside free storage containers or drinking bottles, notebooks, pens etc… and I realised one day that was the key problem to my clutter.

Practising Gratitude and saying thank you

November 23, 2018 Paris B 11 Comments

I was casting about for something to write about, and took a dip into my archives. Another subject had come to mind, and I had written a piece about it. But when I looked at the timing and the date, I realised that there was something else I should be writing about – Gratitude.

How easy it was for me to forget my little annual ritual!

gratitude

It has been a little tradition of mine to adopt the American holiday of Thanksgiving which comes around towards the end of November each year. We after all, adopt so much else, another holiday wouldn’t hurt! 😛

We don’t have a similar celebration here, but I often think we should, if only to remind ourselves that we have something to be thankful about. Getting your hands on that latest sold-out eyeshadow palette does not quite count 😛

So, as you read this, I want you pause for just a few minutes in your day, and think of 3 things you’re thankful for. If you’re feeling crappy, it might put your problems in perspective 🙂

Let me share mine 🙂

#mykiehls wraps their popular products in special packaging designed by Janine Rewell for the Holiday season. I love the scent of the lavender soap! It’s so strong! I’d keep it in my clothes drawer or cupboard to scent it though. It smells amazing!!
.
.
Also, Kiehl’s is taking a step towards being a sustainable brand by using fair trade and sustainable ingredients and packaging. Bring back 4 Kiehl’s product packaging to their stores and you’ll get a deluxe sample in return! Perfect for all #kiehls fans! .
. 
What’s your fave Kiehl’s product? I’m a bit out of touch with the brand to be honest. Didn’t realise quite a few new things have been released. In the past, I liked the Midnight Recovery Oil & the Powerful Line Recovery Concentrate serum. Good stuff! What’s yours? 😉

If your mind is filled with thoughts of getting a #Nespresso, ponder no more because their Long Black Friday sale is here! From a long-time fan 🙋🏻‍♀️, here’s a little token: LBF19PARISB for RM20 off with minimum purchase of RM200. Who has used it already?? ☺️ .
.
If you’re interested in the compact Inissia machine that’s only RM299 (usually RM599) with purchase of 100 capsules, or just shopping for more capsules and accessories, use my promo code at check-out!
So, less wondering and more shopping. Long Black Friday ends tomorrow, 2 December, so head over to Nespresso boutiques or their website at www.nespresso.com.my
