The new L’Occitane Immortelle Reset Triphase Essence is a lovely way to soothe irritated skin if used as suggested

I’m currently the most out-of-touch beauty blogger in the entire universe of beauty blogging. I’m still only starting to use products that were ‘newly launched’ a year ago, and I’m not even doing full-on routines for a while now. I think the whole pandemic has gotten to most of us in one way or another, hasn’t it? At least, that’s my excuse.

But recently, I was gifted with a new product, the L’Occitane Immortelle Reset Triphase Essence, and I was intrigued enough to slot it straight into my routine.

Incidentally, there was a lot of interest in this, when I shared about it on Instagram, so here it is :) Incidentally, it’s one I suggest that you use as suggested, instead of being too clever about it and using it in a different manner, as I usually do :P

Skincare Empties I used up during quarantine: 7 I will repurchase and 2 I will not

June 8, 2020 Paris B 6 Comments

Being in quarantine or lockdown has been good for skincare enthusiasts. It’s forced us to take a long hard look at what we own and use, and actually use it. That’s one positive thing to come out of this!

I’ve been quite good at using up my skincare in the past year or so, so it wasn’t too hard for me to amass a bunch of empty bottles and tubes in the time that our movement was restricted.

Usually, I’d just use them up, make a mental note whether I like them, and quickly forget about them as I move on to the next new item. But this time, I gave it a little more thought.

I had to, because it is now a little more complicated buying skincare from abroad, and I wanted to see if what I enjoyed using was available locally, or if I might have to bite the bullet and try my luck with an online purchase.

So, here are 10 items I emptied out that I felt were worth a mention. There are 8 I’d repurchase, and 2 I will not :)

Initially sceptical about the Laneige Cream Skin Refiner but now I’m a fan!

I’ve had and used the Laneige Cream Skin Refiner for a while, and I realize that the hype has died down somewhat. It was all the rage a few months ago, if you remember. Or it might be because there was a campaign running haha!

That said however, I do understand the hype, because this is quite a nice product!

It is just very hard to understand what it exactly is, or how we could and should use it. So let me share my thoughts with you :)

The Chanel Sublimage La Brume Intense Revitalizing Mist truly sits at the pinnacle of luxury

There are facial mists, and then there is the Chanel Sublimage La Brume Intense Revitalizing Mist.

Anyone who knows me will know by now, that I am a big fan of facial mists. They not only refresh, but help boost skin hydration and perks up your complexion and mood as well, especially on hot days.

So, when the opportunity arose for me to try the Sublimage La Brume Intese Revitalizing Mist, I just could not say no! :D
