Cult brand Biologique Recherche is available in Malaysia with consultation at Boren Medical Hub, Kuala Lumpur

August 1, 2019 Paris B 9 Comments

My first brush with the French cult status brand of Biologique Recherche took place in the quiet, cool, white hallowed halls of their flagship store on Ave. Champs Elysees in Paris.

I remember being in awe of the quiet courtyard, the shelves of clinical looking products, and the Hallelujah moment when I first clapped eyes on the section housing the famed Lotion P50 that I was there to purchase.

I was told that at back was the Biologique Recherche spa, where the signature treatment facials were carried out. As I was standing there chatting with the staff, a lady who was beautifully put together emerged, her skin glowing. At that moment, I swore to myself, that I too would one day experience this wonder for myself.

So, when I learnt that Biologique Recherche was going to be used and carried at the Boren Medical Hub here in Kuala Lumpur, Malaysia with medical consultation, alongside the famed Biologique Recherche treatment facials, I knew my opportunity had come! 😀 Only took a couple of years LOL! 😀

5 Things I Love Vol. 2: Bits and Bites

July 26, 2019 Paris B 15 Comments

I took a turn for the nostalgic last month, and hearkened back to the early days of blogging, when we’d share little random things in bite-sized pieces, because it was fun to. I enjoyed that, and apparently, so did many of you!

So, I’ve decided to make it a monthly feature – as regularly as I can remember to post LOL!

What’s most interesting for me is how much has changed, or evolved, since my last post last month, so this serves as a nice little check-in for me with how I’m doing 🙂

We will all age – Let’s not fear it and play into the hands of the beauty industry

July 4, 2019 Paris B 34 Comments

I received a comment quite recently, which I will not quote verbatim. But what was essentially said was that this person is in her late 20s and “terrified about fine lines” and how she’d age.

The comment was asking if the product I had reviewed would help reduce or erase these fine lines. I did say in my reply that we shouldn’t be terrified about aging, because it’s a natural process. But I couldn’t help thinking about the statement about how she was terrified about having fine lines.

This issue about aging and the attendant fear of growing old, was further highlighted by a recent inquiry in person by someone who asked if I could recommend a product or brand to help with “anti-aging” because of lines etc.

I must confess when faced with situations like this, I am at a a loss for words. You see, there is nothing as certain in life than death and taxes – morbid yes. But true.

And the fact is this – we all age and will age, whether we like it or not. But do we have to play into the grabby hands of the beauty industry and believe that it’s a bad thing?

Boost Hydration: 5 Hydrating Lotions and Serums I love that work (and are mostly affordable!)

June 26, 2019 Paris B 12 Comments

While I’m at that age when products labeled as ‘anti-aging’ grabs my attention, my primary concern isn’t so much ‘aging’ as it is hydration.

It is my personal experience and belief (non-professional) that keeping skin well hydrated helps it look better, and even to function better and heal more quickly from blemishes.

However, I don’t seek out very heavy formula. Instead, I opt to layer my skincare, sandwiching thin layers of potent hydration, to build that buffer.

5 hydrating serums and lotions that work

In my time therefore, as many of you have oft-reminded me in person and online, I have tried numerous products. Yes, if you’ve read a review here on my blog, it’s gone on my face LOL! 😀

And there are products that I return to over and over, or will recommend, because they are just that good at their job.

Today, we talk about Hydration, and I’ll share 5 hydrating lotions and serums that work. And not only work, they work incredibly well! 😀
