The lightweight Melano CC Vitamin C Brightening Gel is very affordable and comfortable on skin

I remember the fuss we all made over the Melano CC Anti-Spot Essence when I first wrote about it. It wasn’t available then, but became available locally not long after. As much as I’d like to take credit for that, I’m sure it wasn’t me who did it haha!

Since arriving on our shores, there have been more products added to the Melano CC brand, and I was offered the opportunity to try the Melano CC Vitamin C Brightening Gel.

Of course, I said yes 😛 I love anything with Vitamin C remember?

5 Things I Love Vol. 11 : The whirlwind that was July

August 3, 2020 Paris B Leave a Comment

I met with some friends for the first time in months, and over lunch, we mused over what a blur the first half of the year has been. I said that as far as I’m concerned, 4 months of 2020 are a write-off.

We’ve entered August 2020, and I’m still struggling to figure out what I’ve been doing from March to June! LOL! I have been busy, that much I know.

Now that July 2020 is past, I’m looking back to see how the month has been, and to pick out 5 of the high spots of the month.

With most of life going back to normal for many of us this past month, I’m sure you too are seeing bright spots in your months so feel free to share with me too! 😀

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! 🙂

Replacing my expensive body cream with the much more affordable and even more effective Cerave Moisturizing Cream

June 11, 2020 Paris B 3 Comments

I’ve become quite a fan of Cerave skincare. It’s simple and gentle, and generally affordable. There’s nothing more you want really, when it comes to skincare in general!

When the whole pandemic started and we were all cautioned to wash our hands with soap often and apply hand sanitizer, I found myself facing a problem I never had to face before – dry hands.

While I found a hand cream I found very effective, I also purchased a tub of the Cerave Moisturizing Cream, which I intended to use as a hand and body cream. I needed to find a replacement for my usual standard cream from L’Occitane.

And I did! 😀
