This is the best way to moisturize dry skin on the body

November 27, 2020 Paris B 12 Comments

When I started being outdoors a little more than usual, I noticed one thing aside from developing a tan.

The skin on my arms were very dry.

This is one of the side effects of having too much sun exposure, and is similarly something that happens to your facial skin as well, if you don’t treat it well – sunscreen, and a proper hydrating, moisturising skincare routine.

But how do you deal with the skin on your body drying out?

The skin on my arms were looking stretched and aged, and it was not pleasant, I can assure you!

Body creams helped, but I wasn’t noticing much improvement. And then, I remembered a tip I received way back in the past, from my early blogging days, and something clicked!

Revisiting the Caudalie Vinoperfect Radiance Serum and testing if it is 62 times better than Vitamin C

November 23, 2020 Paris B 2 Comments

The Caudalie Vinoperfect Radiance Serum is 15 years old this year, and it’s one of the most iconic products in the brand.

I remember when I met the co-owner Mathilde Thomas, and I asked her what the Top 3 products from Caudalie were to try. Her answer included their bestselling Grape Water Spray (that I adore! 😀 ), the Beauty Elixir (that I unfortunately don’t 😛 ), and this – the Vinoperfect Radiance Serum.

RELATED READING: I met Mathilde Thomas in Singapore and we had a lovely and inspiring chat about Caudalie READ HERE

This isn’t my first foray into the Vinoperfect Radiance Serum. I first tried it many many years ago, in my early years of blogging, when I was first introduced to the brand.

It didn’t leave much of an impact on me, but at that time, my priorities for my skin were a little different. I was a little more idealistic, wanted to see results more quickly.

Now, with the benefit of a few years under my belt, and realism overtaking idealism, I’m revisiting the iconic Caudalie Vinoperfect Radiance Serum and seeing what I think of it 🙂

Adding the Avene Very High Protection Mineral Cream SPF50+ sunscreen to my sunscreen wardrobe, permanently!

November 18, 2020 Paris B 2 Comments

Hello hello!

Here’s me easing back into the scheme of things with a product category that’s close to my heart – sunscreen!

Most of you know that I have my favourite brand (Allie, if you didn’t already know), and that I’m very particular about the sunscreen I use. Once I find one I like, I tend to stick with it, unless they reformulate or the price gets too high.

avene very high protection mineral cream spf50+

For me to try a new sunscreen, and like it a lot, is quite something.

This more so, when it’s not a Japanese brand, as I’m usually partial to Japanese formulation.

I bought the Avene Very High Protection Mineral Cream SPF50+ online some time during lockdown, when my fingers got a little itchy and a sale was on. I hadn’t even heard of it so I was flying blind.

But love it I did! 😀

So I took a little unscheduled break

November 12, 2020 Paris B 28 Comments

Hello, friends.

Gosh. I’m not sure where to begin.

hello

As I said in the title of this post, I took an unscheduled break all through October, and intended to restart again in November. That was the plan.

But as with all best laid plans, it went awry and before I realised, November is half over!

As I have received many messages of concern as to whether I’d return to blogging (yes, I will), I figured that I owe you an explanation 🙂

So, hello! What’s been happening? 🙂

Famous last words 😅 Can’t believe how tiny he was last CNY. I could make him do whatever I wanted. Now, he’s got a mind of his own and it’s “no treats, no work!” 🤪
It’s an unusual Chinese New Year this year. It’s the first time since I left home that I did not make an early morning drive home for CNY for the reunion dinner (I always do so to beat traffic). It’s the first time I’m spending CNY in KL. It’s the first time my hair is looking such a mess for CNY 😂
Regardless, we do this not for ourselves but for others so we can have more joyful CNY celebrations to come. 
Wishing all of you a Happy, healthy Chinese New Year filled with Ox-picious tidings 🧧 Gong Xi Fa Cai and enjoy the festive break! ❤️
Low key CNY celebrations this year. No need to dre Low key CNY celebrations this year. No need to dress up or put on makeup since we’re staying home, but I’ll be damned if I don’t smell like a million bucks from head to toe! 🥰
I never appreciated hair mists but the Chanel No. 5 Hair Mist is a nice, light way to enjoy the perfume. Who says you can only spray on your hair? 😬
What’s your CNY shaping up like?
