Trying the Dior Capture Youth Glow Booster Serum reminded me of the perils of being a beauty blogger

Some time last year, Dior released a range of serums that you could customize to your skin needs. It was reminiscent of the Bobbi Brown Remedies range, and was a luxury brand’s answer to the plethora of more affordable brands catering to a similar need for customization.

I recently had the opportunity to try one of the more interesting ones (to me), when I found a bottle of the Dior Capture Youth Glow Booster Age-Defying Illuminating Serum in an event goodie bag.

I like products that promise a glow and radiance, and when I saw that it contained Vitamin C, I was very intrigued. It was opportune that I had just finished the Vitamin C serum I was using, so I decided to put this to the test.

About 2.5 weeks in, I was reminded of the perils I face as a blogger, trying new skincare LOL!

Hello friends!

I don’t know about you, but August has been quite a month for me this year – both good and bad.

But mostly good 🙂

Before I jump to sharing the 5 things I love this month, I wanted to just quickly give a heads up about a slight change in posting schedule here on the blog.

August 9, 2019 Paris B 7 Comments

I was recently introduced to the brand new Cle de Peau Key Radiance Care skincare range, which was quite interesting for me. I’d never used Cle de Peau skincare before this!

The Cle de Peau Key Radiance Care will be the basic skincare range, that addresses issues relating to skin radiance. What every woman wants right?

I haven’t yet tried it, as it’s just only been launched. But here’s a little beauty tidbit about it for you, in case it might be something you might be thinking of exploring 🙂

Will the Drunk Elephant C-Firma Day Serum and B-Hydra Intensive Hydration Serum send me to a euphoric high?

July 29, 2019 Paris B 16 Comments

Now, here’s a brand that’s quite a hot name in the skincare business now – Drunk Elephant. The curiously named brand that conjures up amusing images of inebriated pachyderms has fascinated me for a long time.

But I’ve always balked, because the prices are eye-watering.

So, when I spotted the Drunk Elephant Rise + Glow set, featuring minis of 2 products I’d most wanted to try from the brand, I pounced!

Although containing just 8ml of product each, it’s lasted me for 2 weeks and still counting. About enough time for me to figure out what I think of both these cult products, and whether I’ll splurge on the full sizes.
