Handy hand and nail treatments with Biotherm Age Delaying Hand Treatment and Melvita Argan Oil Roll On

May 26, 2013 Paris B 25 Comments

biotherm hand cream melvita cuticle oil

Apologies if you inadvertently saw an approximation of this post in your email/reader etc. It wasn’t ready for publishing till now 🙂

I’ve run out of my favourite hand cream. It was a tragedy because I’ve been around the block and come to the conclusion that most if not all hand cream is just too greasy for me, despite every claim of being non greasy or oily. Before I ran out to buy a new one however, I remembered that I had one from Biotherm.

The Biotherm Biomains Age-Delaying Hand & Nail Treatment sounds a lot like the one from Clarins and it also came well liked by my Canadian buddy Tracy. Hey, anything that works in the harsh Canadian winters must be a winner! I was quite excited about this one 🙂

The other thing that I thought I’d tell you about is the Melvita Argan Oil Roll on Cuticle treatment. Yes, a roll on. Have you tried either one before?

Affordable Lavender Body Oils I Like from Weleda and Pangea Organics

April 18, 2013 Paris B 45 Comments

weleda lavender body oil and pangea organics lavender cardamom oil

Regular readers will know how attached I am to using body oils. So attached, I even made my case out for them. They are the only body moisturisers I use. Not lotions, butters or creams. I hate those. But I love a good body oil. I also know my tastes in body oils run to the expensive (REN Moroccan Rose and Antipodes Heavenly Oil come to mind). Not my fault that you need good oils to make a good body oil, you know 😛

But there are 2 oils that I’ve been using for a while that are relatively affordable and which are quite good as well. So I thought I’d let you know about them, if you want to experiment with body oils but aren’t sure about plonking down the cash for the pricier ones.

There is a slight problem in that I’m not sure if we get either one locally in Malaysia. They both happen to be natural/organic skincare brands and I don’t hang out enough in stores selling organic or natural produce to know if they stock these, so if you do know, please feel free to share the information in the comments.

Tip: Having trouble sleeping? 2 drops of pure lavender oil may help!

August 7, 2012 Paris B 43 Comments

I go through periods when I have insufficient sleep or poor quality sleep or I just have trouble going to sleep. Its a bit of a curse because I then wake up in the morning feeling more tired than the night before. Sometimes, it could be because of things happening in the day, or work, or personal matters or just nothing whatsoever.

I try not to be too dependant on sleep aids, but when sleep does not come even after tossing and turning in bed, I turn to a tried and true solution.

Lavender Oil.

I choose not to burn the oil because while that works, its just too dangerous to leave a naked flame alight while I sleep. If you have an electric burner that you can put on timer, then some lavender oil in some water will help. But I do it this way. All you need is a piece of tissue paper, and some pure lavender oil.

Everything’s coming up roses with the REN Moroccan Rose Otto Ultra-Nourishing Body Oil

April 26, 2012 Paris B 29 Comments

A little while ago (ok ok a LONG while ago), I told you that I now almost exclusively use body oils instead of body creams, butters or lotions. I find that they absorb so much better and my skin feels so much better too but you can read all about my thoughts in my previous post. One of the body oils I have been using for a while now, is this one by REN Skincare.

ren moroccan rose body oil

You can see that I’m about halfway through this bottle of the REN Moroccan Rose Otto Ultra-Nourishing Body Oil which is such a mouthful I don’t know where to start. So I’ll call this the REN Moroccan Rose Body Oil. This one’s a pricey number but even with quite regular use, I’m not going through it like water so I think it a lovely splurge (or if you are preparing a gift wishlist y’know… 😉 )
