Got dry skin? Cleanse without drying your skin with the Natura Chronos Cleansing Cream

Oh hello! It’s *ahem* been a while I know. Not sure if anyone’s noticed the silence around here, but it’s one of those things that happen from time to time.

I toyed with the idea of taking a break till the new year, before starting afresh, but decided that there really is no better time than the present, if you want to do something. Newton’s First Law dictates that a body at rest will remain at rest, and I feared that might be what’ll happen. I might just forget my login altogether! LOL!

Regardless of my reasons and foibles, I decided to pop back in, and restart with something a little easy – a cleanser.

I’ve been working through my skincare cupboard for a while now, and am happy to report that there is progress (albeit slowly) and one little gem I discovered was the Natura Chronos Cleansing Cream. It is targeted at those with normal to dry skin, which suits me to a T! 🙂

Be kind to your wallet and to your skin when you indulge in the Sukin Rosehip Nourishing Cream Cleanser

Ever since I discovered how much better a cream cleanser was for my skin, as opposed to a gel or foaming type cleanser, I’ve always been on the lookout for new (and affordable!) cream cleanser options.

I’d tried the normal Sukin Cream Cleanser in the past, and throughly enjoyed using it. However, when I saw that there was a version with a pink label, I was curious.

I picked up the Sukin Rosehip Nourishing Cream Cleanser a little while ago, finished it recently, then remembered I had to share how much I enjoyed using it! 😀

The Hada Labo+ Sensitive Skin Creamy Wash lets you go easy on your wallet and your skin

I’m a little confused by the Hada Labo+ Sensitive Skin range. I cannot seem to find much, if any, information online about it. Yet, it became available only just slightly over 6 months ago.

Having been previously burnt by the launch of a new product that I found impressive enough to share my thoughts about, only to find that it was quietly discontinued just less than 6 months later, it’s natural that I’m a little wary about new products.

My principle since, is to only talk about new products at least 3-4 months after they’re launched, both to allow me to gauge availability of the product and to allow me a decent period of product testing. I think it’s only fair to you!

Long story short, I am quite impressed by the Hada Labo+ Sensitive Skin Creamy Wash, and I hope that it’s not a product nor a range that’s going anywhere any time soon.

Best of all, it’s so affordable! That’s a good thing to hear right? 😀

Skincare Empties I used up during quarantine: 7 I will repurchase and 2 I will not

June 8, 2020 Paris B 6 Comments

Being in quarantine or lockdown has been good for skincare enthusiasts. It’s forced us to take a long hard look at what we own and use, and actually use it. That’s one positive thing to come out of this!

I’ve been quite good at using up my skincare in the past year or so, so it wasn’t too hard for me to amass a bunch of empty bottles and tubes in the time that our movement was restricted.

Usually, I’d just use them up, make a mental note whether I like them, and quickly forget about them as I move on to the next new item. But this time, I gave it a little more thought.

I had to, because it is now a little more complicated buying skincare from abroad, and I wanted to see if what I enjoyed using was available locally, or if I might have to bite the bullet and try my luck with an online purchase.

So, here are 10 items I emptied out that I felt were worth a mention. There are 8 I’d repurchase, and 2 I will not 🙂
