Break the chain of not wearing makeup and get festive with Les Chaines D’or de Chanel Holiday 2020 Makeup Collection

I received a selection of the Chanel Holiday 2020 makeup collection by a very special delivery method this year – courier delivery!

Nothing is the same this year, and every company has had to pivot to reach their customers, and Chanel customers in Malaysia have finally been offered a delivery service. You do have to call in to a store or contact client services at +6012 366 0072 to arrange delivery of what you want, but this service is going out throughout Malaysia – yes, even to places without a physical Chanel counter! I think that’s grand 😀

I do realize that the Les Chaines D’or de Chanel Holiday 2020 Makeup collection has been out a while, but I’ll share some quick thoughts on it regardless. Why break with tradition, when it’s something I’ve been sharing year on year 😀

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.

Don’t be so sensitive! Let the Mamonde Blue Chamomile Soothing Repair Cream step in to calm redness and moisturize your skin

When the offer was made for me to try the new Mamonde Blue Chamomile Soothing Repair Cream ahead of its launch, I had no hesitation to accept!

While I’m not your biggest fan of Korean skincare products, there are 2 brands I will pause and try. The first is Sulwhasoo, and the second, is Mamonde. Both, spanning different ends of the price spectrum, but both have generally worked well for me 🙂

I’d not had much luck with their creams before this, always feeling like they’re too light. But this one was different. This one is something I’m happy to keep using! 🙂

The tint of colour in the new Cle de Peau Beaute Lip Glorifier ensures your kissing game won’t get messy!

Some days, I’m all about bold lip colours. The bolder and brighter, the better!

Some days, I mellow and reach for tinted lip balms for just a hint of colour on lips. In fact, this is what I reach for most often these days, as I’m often pressed for time, and I’m busy trying to get a new, special project off the ground.

A new tinted lip balm that has come within my radar is the Cle de Peau Beaute Lip Glorifier Glow Revival Conditioning Balm that comes in 3 barely there shades.

Because today’s also Valentine’s Day, I might suggest that instead of going the whole way and vamping up with the red (for which I have a beautiful and legendary one to suggest) why not dial it down and go for something sweet instead, that won’t mess up when things get erm… steamy 😉
