Revisiting the Caudalie Vinoperfect Radiance Serum and testing if it is 62 times better than Vitamin C

November 23, 2020 Paris B 1 Comment

The Caudalie Vinoperfect Radiance Serum is 15 years old this year, and it’s one of the most iconic products in the brand.

I remember when I met the co-owner Mathilde Thomas, and I asked her what the Top 3 products from Caudalie were to try. Her answer included their bestselling Grape Water Spray (that I adore! 😀 ), the Beauty Elixir (that I unfortunately don’t 😛 ), and this – the Vinoperfect Radiance Serum.

This isn’t my first foray into the Vinoperfect Radiance Serum. I first tried it many many years ago, in my early years of blogging, when I was first introduced to the brand.

It didn’t leave much of an impact on me, but at that time, my priorities for my skin were a little different. I was a little more idealistic, wanted to see results more quickly.

Now, with the benefit of a few years under my belt, and realism overtaking idealism, I’m revisiting the iconic Caudalie Vinoperfect Radiance Serum and seeing what I think of it 🙂

Adding the Avene Very High Protection Mineral Cream SPF50+ sunscreen to my sunscreen wardrobe, permanently!

November 18, 2020 Paris B 1 Comment

Hello hello!

Here’s me easing back into the scheme of things with a product category that’s close to my heart – sunscreen!

Most of you know that I have my favourite brand (Allie, if you didn’t already know), and that I’m very particular about the sunscreen I use. Once I find one I like, I tend to stick with it, unless they reformulate or the price gets too high.

For me to try a new sunscreen, and like it a lot, is quite something.

This more so, when it’s not a Japanese brand, as I’m usually partial to Japanese formulation.

I bought the Avene Very High Protection Mineral Cream SPF50+ online some time during lockdown, when my fingers got a little itchy and a sale was on. I hadn’t even heard of it so I was flying blind.

But love it I did! 😀

Simple it might be but Dr. Sam’s Flawless Moisturiser is simply flawless!

September 18, 2020 Paris B 3 Comments

I picked up the Dr. Sam’s Flawless Moisturiser on the heels of the Flawless Cleanser a while ago. It was one of those things that I bought, kept and didn’t get around to using.

But now that I’m working my way through my stash, I took it out to use, and quickly found that I enjoyed it very much.

Now that I’m all but finished with the bottle, I figured it was as good at time as any to share some thoughts about it with you.

Suffice to say that while it is a pretty simple moisturiser by all accounts, I really enjoyed using it, and it’s one on my to-repurchase list. That’s in a nutshell 😉

Do you need a gadget to clean your face? I review the Foreo Luna 3 to find out

September 7, 2020 Paris B 6 Comments

Do you need a gadget to help clean your face?

That’s a question I ask myself everytime a new face-cleaning gadget hits the stands. In recent years, Swedish brand Foreo has carved its niche and entrenched itself firmly in the beauty world as the go-to face-cleaning gadget.

But I stayed clear, because I’m notoriously lax at using beauty gadgets. Very lax.

I was however, recently offered a chance to try the Foreo Luna 3, and after a little humming and hawing, I decided to say yes. What is the point of being a beauty blogger if I wasn’t a little adventurous? In fact, what’s the point of being a beauty blogger anymore, when people prefer other mediums LOL! 😛

But I digress.

So, after a little while using the Foreo Luna 3, I think I have an opinion on it – and I have been encouraged to be honest, so I will be! (I wonder if they’ll regret that) 😉
