3 ways I use the Rosken Skin Repair Dry Skin Cream to soothe and repair dry skin

What do you reckon you can do in 30 minutes?

Make a sandwich? Cook a quick meal? Repair and soothe dry skin?

It’s that last one that I’ve found myself needing more now, because dry skin is something that’s beginning to plague me not only on my face, but over the body as well. This more so, on my hands, which are now more exposed to washing, cleaning detergents and sanitizers.

Rosken Skin Repair is a brand not unfamiliar to me. My dad swore by it for healing cracked heels in the past, so when the opportunity arose for me to revisit, I was happy to! 🙂 Here are 3 ways I use it.

Ever since being introduced to Natura, I have been quite a big fan of the brand, especially their hair and body products. The Natura Murumuru Shampoo and Conditioner is amazing for dry, frizzy hair!

But I wanted to tell you of one of the nicest body products I’ve used in recent times – the Natura Castanha Body Lotion and Castanha Nourishing Hand Cream. LOVE!

I’ve never been one to use a body lotion or hand cream very much. But since getting a little older, and exposing myself more to the sun, I’ve realised that you can’t just treat your face and neglect the rest of you. If you want to look good, and age gracefully, you need to care for your arms and hands too.

And in our hot and humid tropical weather, you want something that isn’t sticky or greasy.

Beauty hors d’oeuvres: Melt in the warm sweet scent of Laura Mercier Ambre Vanille this festive season

December 5, 2020 Paris B 2 Comments

Usually, when the year end comes around, it is a time for a bit of a breather. That little pause as people go on leave, throng the malls to enjoy the Christmas decorations, and spend time with loved ones while shopping up a storm – the sales! Oh, the sales!

This year, it’s all different of course.

This year, everyone feels a little more uncertain, staying at home has taken on new meaning (and stress, for parents especially!) and shopping has mostly gone online.

The sales! Oh the online sales! HAHA 😛

Well, I wouldn’t blame you for wanting something a little more indulgent than normal this year. Goodness knows, you’ve earned it! So, here’s a glimpse of something sweet from Laura Mercier, for the festive season.

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

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!
