General

Because we are all unique, there are 3 versions of the new Clarins Treatment Essence for different skin concerns

August 26, 2016 Paris B 10 Comments

Alrighty then, I think a bunch of you have been waiting for this post to go up – I sure have gotten a lot of inquiries after I gave you the overview of the new Clarins Treatment Essences about 2 weeks back! If you’d like to know a little more about the Treatment Essence, I’d suggest reading the previous post – it’s very comprehensive.

In this one, I’m focusing on what I think of them, having had them in my skincare rotation for almost 2 months (I had a jumpstart on them cos the media launch in Malaysia was way before I went to Paris! LOL!).

clarins treatment essence - multi active, extra firming, super restorative

Because many of you lovely international beauties asked if you can get this in Europe or North America soon, I checked and the answer I received from Clarins Paris is an unfortunate, not now. These Clarins Treatment Essences will be Asia-exclusive for a while, until they figure out how well it’s doing. So, if you’re travelling through Asia or have friends or family in Asia, now’s the time to ask for a favour! 😀

Being a Treatment Essence that is supposed to “unlock” the skin barrier to allow your skincare to penetrate better into your skin, Clarins has positioned this product as a pre-skincare product.

Cleansing -> Acid toner (if using) -> Clarins Treatment Essence -> rest of skincare 

There are 3 different essences formulated for 3 different skincare concerns. While Clarins uses age as a gauge (Multi-Active for those in their 20’s, Extra-Firming for those in their 30’s and Super Restorative for those in their 40’s – more detail on which to choose in my previous introductory post) I prefer to classify them according to your skin concerns.

Because I had the opportunity to try all 3 (no, you do not need all 3 – perish the thought and protect your wallet!) I’ll tell you what I think of each, and how I feel they fit for different skins 🙂 I know many of you had gone out to get samples so now’s your time to share YOUR review below! 😀

Your Say: Is blogging dead?

February 2, 2016 Paris B 75 Comments

“Is blogging dead?”

Ironic, considering that I’m writing this on a blog, and inviting you to share your thoughts on this. If it were well and truly dead, then no one will read this little musing of mine, will they? It’ll provoke no comment, and it’ll just disappear into the ether.

is blogging dead?

I’m not going to whine about the way things are or were, or what goes on behind the facade of the blog that you see right here, or what nonsense bloggers have to face. I have a genuine curiosity as to whether you feel that it’s just too much to read blogs anymore. Or perhaps, you feel that blogs are now too commercialised. Or maybe, the blogger you used to read no longer blogs about things you can relate to, and you just feel that blogging as a whole is just passe.

We all grow up and along the way, our interests wax and wane in different areas of our life. But that’s looking at it from the reader’s side of the fence. What about bloggers? Is it even worth starting a blog anymore? Has blogging been driven to its grave?

These bright gels from Peter Thomas Roth go on your face not your hair!

September 11, 2014 Paris B 14 Comments

The day I opened the boxes to these Peter Thomas Roth gel masks, I couldn’t stifle a shout of laughter. The tubs of bright green and bright pink gel were so reminiscent of…. 90’s HAIR GEL! 😀 Come on, I can’t be the only person out there who thinks so right?

Tip: Keeping the gel masks in the fridge offer a lovely cooling treat for skin on warm days but don’t keep it with your veges or within reach of children or anyone who might dip a spoon in here and taste the product 😛

But you know what? Don’t go smearing these colourful gel in your hair, they go on your face instead. I’ve never really tried anything from Peter Thomas Roth before but apparently their gel masks are highly acclaimed. The Cucumber Gel Mask in particular, seems to get raves for being soothing, hydrating and gentle on skin so I was curious to see how I’d like that one.

The Rose Stem Cell Bio-Repair Gel Mask is a new addition and touts an anti-aging function, helping to soften lines while hydrating and rejuvenating skin. If you’ve tried either, or any other, I’d love to hear your thoughts on this too!

New! Dior Addict Makeup extends to the eyes with It-Lash and It-Line

June 13, 2014 Paris B 8 Comments

When pressed for a favourite lipstick formula, I tend to gravitate towards the Dior Addict lipsticks. I’ve been huge fans of them ever since the days back when they came in an opaque dark blue case and a gold holder. If you remember those, congratulations, you too must be a fan! 😀 I have stayed pretty loyal through the years but it wasn’t until recently that it struck me that the Dior Addict lipsticks and glosses and now the new Fluid Stick actually reflects the Dior Addict perfume bottle! Erm yes, late to the party 😛

I was recently introduced to 2 more additions to the Dior Addict makeup range – the It-Lash and It-Line. 

dior addict it lash and it liner

These are a brand new range of mascara and liquid eyeliners respectively and a part of the growing Dior Addict makeup range, which previously only focused on the lips. This time, Dior wants to highlight the eyes – the windows to the soul 😀

Like the Addict lip products, the Dior Addict It-Line and It-Lash come packaged like the perfume, with the knob at the top, which is purely for aesthetic purposes. Well, not quite either because for the liner at least, wedging your finger against it actually helps you control the liner better. The tubes are a sleek and simple square glossy black with silver knobs at the end.

I’ll quickly show you some fun things about this new launch from Dior for the Summer 2014. The It-Line liquid lider and It-Lash mascara in black are permanent colours but there are another 3 very fun colours to look out for as well 😀
