Don’t be so sensitive! Let the Mamonde Blue Chamomile Soothing Repair Cream step in to calm redness and moisturize your skin

June 26, 2020 Paris B 1 Comment

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! 🙂

The Inkey List Retinol : For the times when the budget is tight but you want something effective

May 11, 2020 Paris B 8 Comments

I’ve used a few products from The Inkey List since they launched, and I must say that it is an affordable brand that impresses me. I have since lost count of the new products launched since, but I might get round to trying them some day.

One of the products that I was most keen to try back then was The Inkey List Retinol serum. The packaging was damaged in my first order, but I later reordered it, because I was started to get into retinol serums, and this fascinated me at how affordable it was!

Like all retinol serums, it takes me ages to form an opinion about them, or even to share a review, because retinol takes time to show results. It most certainly isn’t a magic wand, and it can cause more harm than good, if not properly used. Hence, I always exercise caution and I advise everyone to do the same 🙂

So, does The Inkey List Retinol Serum do anything for me?

Let the French boost skin hydration the natural way with the Novexpert Booster Serum with Hyaluronic Acid

Give me a product with Hyaluronic Acid, and I’d be all over it, raring to have a go. Hydration! Let me at all that hydration! This more so, after I’d had a happy encounter with the first Novexpert product I tried not very long ago.

The second product I’ve tried from French pharmacy brand Novexpert is the Novexpert Booster Serum with Hyaluronic Acid.

I have tried many hydration serums that contain high concentrations of hyaluronic acid, and I am always looking out for the next big thing.

Might this one be it? 😀

Suspend reality for a moment and let’s delve into the super luxurious world of Cle de Peau La Creme

March 30, 2020 Paris B 2 Comments

I’ve dithered over writing about the new Cle de Peau La Creme for a while now. First, it was because I had other things to talk about.

I did drop a hint that it was one of my favourite things of February 2020, but not much more than that. I thought I’d have time to tell you about it.

And then, all hell broke lose globally with the creeping tentacles of the virus reaching all over the world, and I struggled with myself to get back into a routine of writing about beauty products. It all seemed so frivolous. But I’ve had many people tell me to anyway, because it helps them take their mind off what’s happening globally.

Yet, how could I realistically tell people about a RM2,500 (US$550) jar of face cream? But I will, because it’s what I do 🙂
