There is much to enjoy about the Dr Sam’s Flawless Daily Sunscreen but there are some drawbacks too

January 15, 2021 Paris B 4 Comments

I’ve tried 2 of Dr Sam’s products prior to this (Flawless Cleanser and Flawless Moisturiser), and I’ve enjoyed them both.

When I saw she also had the Dr. Sam’s Flawless Daily Sunscreen, I was curious enough to pick up a bottle, even though I already have my favourite sunscreen, and am usually loathe to try something new.

But it’s a SUNSCREEN! And I’m always curious about sunscreen.

This especially also because I have a soft spot for Dr. Sam Bunting. I enjoy watching her videos. Her voice is soothing, and her advice often makes sense, without shoving it in your face as many do.

So, might I have found a brand new sunscreen to love? 🙂

Your Say: Is expensive skincare ever worth it?

January 11, 2021 Paris B 10 Comments

Skincare is such a divisive thing once prices come into play.

I feel like in many ways, people are more willing to pay for a more expensive makeup item than they are a more expensive skincare product.

Might it be because a makeup item can last longer, while you’re likely to finish your skincare product in 3-4 months? Think of the last expensive eyeshadow palette you purchased. I’m sure it’s still sitting there after a few years, while that last expensive skincare product has been emptied many moons ago LOL!

Often therefore, when I share about a skincare product which is more expensive than normal, I’m asked if it’s worth it.

Well, what do you think? Is expensive skincare ever worth it?

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!

2021 Life Mantra : Stay Alive!

January 5, 2021 Paris B 8 Comments

That about sums up my life mantra for 2021, folks! I’m sure many of you share the same sentiment!

2020 was eye-opening for most of us, for the most part. It was a year that brought into stark relief our privileges, insecurities, fear and paranoia. It was a year that most of us will never want to repeat, as we spent much of the time indoors, or in lockdown. Some of us had it easier than others, I’d agree.

I had a bit of thinking at the end of 2020, about how the year went for me and the lessons I learnt, and how I want 2021 to go for me.

But really, my life mantra in 2021 is just simple – stay alive!
