The natural and organic Evolve Organic Beauty Daily Renew Facial Cream made a huge difference to my skin!

This is the second item I’ve tried from Evolve Organic Beauty, and like the first, I love it! Oh, is that a bit of a giveaway? LOL!

Regardless, I put the Evolve Organic Beauty Daily Renew Facial Cream into my routine at a time when my skin was going bonkers, and it reminded why I had to be careful to use a product that was suited for my skin type. I had been rather lax in the weeks and months before this.

I don’t know whether to blame malaise or just some form of stress, but I was at a point when I wasn’t quite caring about what I put on my face, as long as I put something on it. That was the root of my problem. I was being lazy, and trying take the easy way out, and my skin suffered as a result.

When I woke up one day, and decided that I had to be more careful and diligent, things started getting better. And I do have this cream to thank 🙂

Trying a local brand and an interesting new facial oil in the Root Remedies Black Seed Oil

June 17, 2021 Paris B 3 Comments

I kept seeing Instagram ads for a local brand Roots Remedies, to the point that I was intrigued. I guess you could say that ads work eh?

What really intrigued me was the fact that Root Remedies is a local Malaysian brand, and they had beautiful, minimalist aesthetics, that is so in right now.

One day, while in Bangsar (when we could walk around and dine indoors even with restrictions), I chanced upon their store. Yep, they aren’t only sold online, but in a physical store too. It is a beautiful store, with a very minimalist look and feel and a very soothing place to be in (albeit a little warm from the sun).

After browsing a little, I decided to pick up an item or two to try. When I polled Instagram, I found reviews to be rather mixed on the brand so I thought it would be interesting to have a go myself. Their range of facial oils intrigued me (I love me a good facial oil!) so that’s what I went for – the Root Remedies Black Seed Oil.

I’m assured that no elephants were hurt in making the Drunk Elephant Virgin Marula Luxury Facial Oil

I first tried the Drunk Elephant Virgin Marula Luxury Facial Oil in a trial pack duo I purchased online one Christmas (back in the day before it was available here). They still do those little kits sets, which is a good (and more affordable) way to try products from this cult status brand.

I later received a full-sized bottle of the Virgin Marula Luxury Facial Oil in a press kit, and was able to try it for a little longer.

And I’m going to tell you that this is a very nice little bottle of oil!

What beauty treatments do you miss most? Here’s how to DIY home beauty treatments using your facial oil

An on-going joke that’s arisen from this period that we’re in lockdown is that once it’s lifted, we’d finally see everyone’s natural hair colour, lashes, nails and brows again LOL!

The beauty service industry is a very personal one, and the order to physically distance ourselves from each other has taken its toll, both on the providers and the end-users.

I, for example, am missing my hairdresser like crazy! I’ve been overdue for a haircut, and not having the business open has taken its toll, not only on my hairdresser and his business, but the state and condition of my hair too. I’m going to come out of this with the longest my hair has ever been, for the past 5 years LOL 😛

If you are facing some issues with grooming and beauty treatments, I have some tips for you, that might help tide you over till we’re able to hit the salons again. The best part is that it involves you multi-purposing what you may already use – your facial oils 🙂
