A sample of the Filorga Meso Mask got me smitten immediately!

I love the Filorga Meso Mask!

I think that’s all I want to say haha!

I was gifted a few sample sachets of the Filorga Meso Mask quite a few years ago from a Belgian blogger who no longer blogs (Phil, I hope you’re still reading!) He sent me a lovely, giant skincare package of his favourite products from french pharmacy brands, and I loved them all!

I especially loved the sachets of the Filorga Meso Mask, and the next time I had an opportunity, I picked up a tub in Paris. We didn’t have it available here in Malaysia at the time, and it was hard to find it online. But we do now! 😀

I’m melting all over the Evolve Organic Beauty Gentle Cleansing Melt – Such a lovely product!

I had to share this new discovery with you, coz I love it so much! I stumbled on the brand Evolve Organic Beauty online one day, and was quite intrigued both by their esthetic as well as their products and price point. It was fairly reasonably price by my books.

I picked up a few items, but the first I dug into, and immediately fell in love with, was the Evolve Organic Beauty Gentle Cleansing Melt. It is such a delight use, and feels so amazing on the skin!

No more racerback sports bras! How wearing the wrong sports bra caused me so much pain

April 19, 2021 Paris B 23 Comments

I’m not a sporty sort of person, so when I buy sports gear, I just buy whichever seems most popular in style, or cheapest in price. I’m not terribly fussy!

When it came to buying sports bras, I read all about how a racerback or cross-back design helped support your boobs better, by holding them in place while you pursue your exercise pursuits. It was also fashionable, and you don’t have the problem of bra straps slipping off your shoulders.

When I was doing light exercises like yoga, it seemed to help. A racerback sports bra, which is one that is crossed at the back, seems to pull your shoulders back too, so you don’t slouch so much. All in all, I thought I was doing the right thing, and stocked up on them as I got more active.

Then, I started wearing athleisure more, and when the regular dog walks started, I found myself wearing my sports bras more and more, for longer and longer hours.

And then I noticed that I started developing a pain and stiffness in my neck and shoulder muscles. It got so bad one day, and I felt so stiff, that I swore up and down that something was wrong with me. But then, on a whim, I did a quick search online, and found that the sports bra could be the problem!

Products I finished recently: 4 I enjoyed and 2 I won’t repurchase

I’ve used up some products recently, and it’s opportune to share what I thought about them after finishing them to the last drop, as there were a couple that didn’t quite blow me away. Yet, they didn’t quite merit a post on their own, if you get what I mean.

There was one that surprised me, as it sort of grew on me the more I used it. Wasn’t impressed initially, but by the end of its life, I was happy enough with it that I was contemplating repurchasing! 🙂
