Sunscreen

Best sunscreen in the market? We take the Blue Lizard Sensitive Mineral Sunscreen SPF50+ for a test

May 23, 2023 Paris B 3 Comments

blue lizard sunscreen

Many years ago, I came across mention of the Blue Lizard sunscreen. It is an Australian brand, and it was touted as one of the best in the market for sun protection. Hey! I’m always looking for the best sunscreen in the market!

Australian-made sunscreens are usually very good. Their regulation is very strict when it comes to SPF, so I have always placed a lot of faith in their sun protection products.

It was however, not easy to source outside of Australia, so over time, I forgot about it. Then, one day while browsing iHerb, I noticed that they had the Blue Lizard sunscreen! So, into my basket it went. The irony of buying an Australian sunscreen from the USA and having it shipped to Malaysia, but there you go! 😀

Naturally, having waited so long to try it, I had to know if it was the best sunscreen in the market!

The Empties Edition: Discovering a really nice hydrating serum amidst the empty bottles

December 19, 2022 Paris B Leave a Comment

skincare empty bottles

I’ve been sticking to my resolve to use up products as much as I can, without leaving too many half-opened jars and bottles lying around. The only way I know if a product works for my skin, or if I love it, is if I’m able to finish it.

Better yet, I finish it, and yearn for a new bottle or jar! 😀

Here are some of my recent empties, because everyone loves a post about empties 😉

My 3 Pillars of an anti-aging skincare routine

November 29, 2022 Paris B 14 Comments

pillars of anti aging skincare routine

You know what I love about skincare products and information these days? It’s that there is so much information out there, and so many products and brands that help us achieve what we want for our skin.

I used to broadly focus on 2 areas of skin concerns in the past – hydration and anti-aging. While trying to find products that suited this ‘anti-aging’ category, I realised that ‘anti-aging’ is such a broad category, with so many products that claim to be it. For my purposes, I decided to narrow it down further.

These days, there are 3 specific types of products in my skincare routine that I maintain to address my ‘anti-aging’ concerns. These concerns are primarily lines, skin firmness and dull skin.

Why would it concern me if I don’t make a fuss about growing older, you ask? Well, because I’m vain – as are most people! 😛 😀

The elegant texture of these new Ultra Violette Sunscreens from Australia makes them one of the best new sunscreens I’ve tried so far

August 25, 2022 Paris B 8 Comments

I’m at that stage of life where I’m happy with my sunscreen choices, and have no intention to change. But when you’re offered a chance to try a new sunscreen brand, that has people everywhere falling in love with the formula and protection, you don’t say no.

And that’s how I ended up with the Ultra Violette Supreme Screen Hydrating Facial Skinscreen SPF50+, Lean Screen Mineral Mattifying SPF50+ and Extreme Screen Hydrating Body & Hand Skinscreen SPF50+. Incidentally, I just found out that Ultra Violette is now available in Malaysia too, via Sephora.

ultra violette supreme screen, lean screen, extreme screen

Ultra Violette (a clever play on ultra violet rays – UV) is a new brand of sunscreen that hails from Australia. Australia is famously known as the country that has the strictest laws on sunscreen ratings, testing and approvals, and also one of the countries that runs campaigns to educate and encourage their people to wear sunscreen and sun protection clothing, to protect themselves from UV rays and skin cancer.

What has captured the imagination of users of Ultra Violette is the texture of the product. Everyone I spoke to about the brand has waxed lyrical about how lovely the products feel on their skin.

The problem with wearing sunscreen is that it has a tendency to be heavy and greasy. Many people don’t like that and use it as an excuse to skip sunscreen. While I am partial to Japanese brands, some of those have a tendency to be a little drying for me.

So, coming across a brand, where the co-founder says “We wanted to design a wardrobe of facial sunscreen that looked good, felt nice to wear, and didn’t bore us to tears” did have me intrigued. I had to see just how different or pleasurable the Ultra Violette sunscreens were 🙂

The pup & I celebrating birthdays within weeks of The pup & I celebrating birthdays within weeks of each other 😁 Kiddo turns 4 and celebrated with specially made doggy burgers & fries.

I got him in early Jan 2020 so he’s only been with me less than 4 years but it’s been incredible to see how he’s grown (or not), and how he’s slowly mellowed with age (or not!). He’s still that crazy rambunctious puppy who terrorises other dogs, begging them to play and barking at them when they don’t. He’s a greedy fella who makes me think I’m the greatest chef in the world (in the dog world maybe!) and he still gets crazy eyes when excited. 

But I’ve also found more white hair around his eyes and he sleeps in more and later now. He doesn’t even get up early enough to jump onto the bed as he used to 😔

4 years is practically adulthood in doggy years and I’m thankful that we have the opportunity to spend lots of time together even if I bemoan having to bring him everywhere I go. 

Happy 4 years boy ❤️

We just started retailing our dog treats @quandogtreats at our first offline outpost! We’re available exclusively at Lex’s Patio Pantry @lexpatiopantry, a brand new cosy spot in the heart of Bangsar. 

Housed at the base of Kapas Condominium, (enter from Jalan Penaga), you’ll find the brand new Lex’s Patio Pantry, a curated grocer with pantry staples and a little cafe set up offering breakfast and lunch. It’s a lovely spot that is quiet and green, filled with all sorts of wonderful goodies, and is best of all, pet friendly! Scroll to the end to see what my efforts are like trying to get a photo with the kid 😒

This explains my lack of updates generally. Been very busy preparing for this, and amazingly enough, moving operations again! It’s a long sucky story but it might have just turned out for the best for us so as they say about windows opening and closing, sometimes you just have to go with the flow and look for the open window when doors close.
