Looking back and drawing the curtains on another year

December 31, 2018 Paris B 30 Comments

Hello friends.

Each year, as the clock ticks down to the final minutes of the 365th day (or 366th in a leap year, if you’re pedantic), I sit here to ponder for a moment on the year that’s past.

parisb - year end musings

As you grow older, the same thoughts cross your mind each year, as each festival looms – “Goodness! The year is just FLYING by!” you exclaim. Each year, you convince yourself that it’s going by faster than before.

I’m afraid that’s what I’m going to say about my 2018 – It’s just flown by.

If you’ve never heard of The Inkey List, let me change that!

December 27, 2018 Paris B 10 Comments

I find it interesting and not a little intriguing how one very affordable brand caught the world’s imagination by storm a few years ago (The Ordinary), while this other new brand – The Inkey List – has quietly crept into the beauty scene without much hullabaloo.

the inkey list brand review and overview

Aside from the few reviews I’ve done of some noteworthy items from The Inkey List, and some posts I’ve come across from some UK bloggers, there hasn’t been a lot of fuss about the brand.

I think it’s a pity, because I think it’s a great little single-ingredient, very affordable brand.

I picked up quite a few items from The Inkey List a few months ago, and I’d already told you about two of my favourites – the Turmeric Moisturiser and the Hyaluronic Acid serum.

This post will serve more as an overview of the products I’ve tried, what I think of the brand in general, and why I think you should take a look, if affordable, effective skincare is what you’re after.

My Experience with shopping online from overseas retailers for delivery to Malaysia : A definitive guide

December 21, 2018 Paris B 37 Comments

There is one question I am asked a lot when I talk about products or brands that are not readily available locally here in Malaysia. It is this – “Did you buy it online?” and usually the follow up questions will be “Is it safe? Did you get taxed?”

I have also noticed that many otherwise seasoned shoppers balk at shopping at overseas websites. They’d rather wait for it to be available locally, buy from a local website despite a mark up in price, or use a personal shopper/reseller, to save on the perceived hassle, or perhaps get instant gratification.

Nothing wrong with that, except when I’m told by these same people that they find it hard to shop online from overseas, because they’re afraid! Well, there’s no need to be!

shopping online for delivery to malaysia - a guide

I was a little slow off the starting blocks with online shopping back in the day. Then, many websites did not ship to Malaysia, and it was very frustrating. Today, most do, with the odd exception. 

I have become quite an avid online shopper. But I am very careful with what I buy and where I buy it from. And because I get so many questions, I thought it would be helpful to share my experiences and tips for a more painless shopping experience 🙂

I started writing this, thinking it would be quick and easy, only to realize after a spell that it was a lot bigger than it looks LOL! 😀 So, suffice to say, settle right in with a cup of your favourite beverage and maybe some sustenance. Even take a few days if you like 😛

Luxurious price tag aside, how does the Chanel Sublimage L’Essence Fondamentale fare?

December 19, 2018 Paris B 3 Comments

I’d had the good fortune of trying out the Chanel Sublimage L’Essence Fondamentale Ultimate Redefining Concentrate for about a month prior to learning a little more about it in Hong Kong. 

In a way, I appreciated this, because I had the opportunity to figure it out for myself first, before learning about what makes it tick.

chanel sublimage l'essence fondamentale

The story behind the L’Essence Fondamentale is an involved one, that encompasses over 8 years of research, and hundreds of thousands of tons of solidago flowers, which form the heart of this serum. You can read about its story in my overview post, which is far more comprehensive.

Today, I’m going to tell you instead about my experience with one of the two new serums from Chanel – the very exclusive (and pricey) Sublimage L’Essence Fondamentale Ultimate Redefining Concentrate.

#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? 😉

Instagram post 2188972189295142437_31525362 STILL DREAMING ABOUT BLACK FRIDAY DEALS?
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
