Try the One Minute Rule for greater productivity and a more clutter-free home

June 19, 2019 Paris B 14 Comments

I shared about my useful one tip to corral clutter a while ago. I’m notoriously bad about picking up after myself, which doesn’t quite bode well for living in a clutter-free home.

A few weeks ago, I went for a house-viewing, and I was stunned at how well-kept it was. It was neat, tidy and everything was in its place. There was no stray bits of clutter lying around. Everything looked deliberate and it was beautiful. And CLEAN!

I was inspired.

So I returned home, and for the next few weeks, I started picking up after myself a little better. I still kept my landing strip, except I’d cleared it out more.

I started making it a point to run the vacuum more regularly (The Roomba iRobot is a dream!) and clean the floor more often. I started picking up after myself.

And then I came across an interesting concept – the One Minute Rule. I was intrigued and inspired.

5 Things I Love : The randomness of life and interests

June 12, 2019 Paris B 15 Comments

There’s this thing about old-school style blogging that I love, and it is, that it doesn’t always have to be so compartmentalized. It doesn’t always have to be a full blown dedicated review post, or a full blown post dedicated to any one thing. It doesn’t always have to be optimized for SEO and trying to game the system.

Sometimes, it is just about the flow, about writing whatever comes to mind on this space we call ours, and sometimes, it is just about being random.

With this in mind, that’s what today’s post is really about. I’m just not in the right frame of mind to write about any one thing in particular, or do any in-depth research into anything. Instead, I’ll let the flow take me where it wants to go, and you can come along for the ride if you like 😀

3 Things you can do to improve your skin without changing your skincare

May 27, 2019 Paris B 12 Comments

If you’re a skincare afficionado like me, you’d be keeping your finger on the pulse, yearning to check out everything new in the market, and trying everything you can get your hands on, to (hopefully) improve your skin.

Is there a new Vitamin C serum in the market? Let me at it!

Is there a new retinol product that everyone says is worth trying? I want to try too!

Is there a new cleanser that everyone is raving about? I want it or I’d feel left out!

3 things to improve skin without changing skincare

Yet, because I’ve forced myself to slow down, and to use it or lose it, I have restricted my beauty purchases (and spending in general) this year. There have been the odd times that I’ve fallen off the bandwagon, but in the main, I’ve been quite good 😛

But I’ve since also learnt that sometimes, we can improve our skin not with new products, but with how we use them. Sometimes, you can quite literally improve your skin without even changing your skincare! And best of all, these tips should suit all skin types 🙂

Save & Splurge: Comparing the Hakuhodo and Chanel Retractable brushes and affordable Mini Travel-sized face brushes

May 15, 2019 Paris B 8 Comments

After my rant about the retractable (but not) brush from Guerlain a few days ago, I was reminded of a reader request. Someone had requested my thoughts on the Chanel Les Pinceaux de Chanel Retractable Highlighter Brush as compared to the Hakuhodo Retractable Brush that I bought as a souvenir from Japan last year.

I’d kept the post at the back of my mind, intending to write about it, but never quite getting round to it for various reasons. Well, let us remedy that today! 😀

As these brushes also make good travel brushes, I will also show you a few other small/mini brushes that I use for travel purposes, or that are portable. They are affordable so stop cringing! LOL! 😀
