I once declared that Antipodes skincare can do no wrong in my eyes.
I’ve yet to find a product that has proven that statement wrong! OK granted, I wasn’t too big a fan of Halo mud mask, but it still was a decent product.
So, when Antipodes launched Baptise H2O Ultra-Hydrating Water Gel, I knew we were in for a treat!
I wasn’t too far wrong. But there are a couple of caveats 🙂
Continue ReadingI’m currently the most out-of-touch beauty blogger in the entire universe of beauty blogging. I’m still only starting to use products that were ‘newly launched’ a year ago, and I’m not even doing full-on routines for a while now. I think the whole pandemic has gotten to most of us in one way or another, hasn’t it? At least, that’s my excuse.

And I had some really nice ones too!
Perhaps, as a hope of renewal in 2021, and not without a healthy dose of optimism, Chanel decided to launch a new range of lipsticks – Chanel Rouge Coco Bloom.
Promising a hydrating plumping formula and intense shine, these new lipsticks promise to be a treat on lips. And I do like them!
