Your say: What is your bedtime routine? Do you have one?

February 6, 2015 Paris B 32 Comments

Do you have one? A bedtime routine, that is. I’m sure you do, one way or another 😀 It may be beauty related, or it may not. Maybe it involves you catching up on the news of the day?

bedtime routine

I was thinking about it one evening, while getting ready for bed. I go to bed early, mostly because I suppose I have that luxury to be able to 🙂 I know some people who have kids etc have their bedtimes dictated by that, but since I don’t, I eschewed keeping late nights, and pop off to bed fairly early. I’m usually in bed by 10pm or 11pm at latest. I can’t even keep my eyes open past 10.30pm these days! (Psst! Sleeping early is also better for the skin ahem! 😉 )

Oh yes, I’m lucky and I know it 😀 However, I do suffer from bouts of insomnia now and again so keeping a fixed bedtime helps me. My body winds down on its own and when the Sandman comes a-visiting, I’m usually ready.

But I do have a routine before bed that I slavishly adhere to. It’s very simple really, but the routine tells my body that it’s time to shut down.

For body oil that’s affordable and effective, I’d pick EO Products French Lavender Body Oil everyday!

January 26, 2015 Paris B 14 Comments

If you know anything about me by now, it’s that I love using oils; be they for the face or for the body. They help my dry skin stay more supple and moist, and for my body, absorb better without ever feeling sticky or greasy, unlike lotions (I don’t use body lotions in general) I know, that’s not something we expect to hear about applying oil to the skin, but you’d be surprised, it works!

But if there’s something to note about using oils is that good quality oils can be pricey. Two of my favourite body oils – REN and Antipodes – fall into this pricey category (but they’re so lovely and decadent on skin!) but I always like finding options. So I was very happy to stumble on one while shopping on iHerb one day 😀

EO Products French Lavender body oil

I was looking for lavender essential oil when I came across the EO Products French Lavender Body Oil. I love the scent of lavender as well, so I took a chance on this body oil. I was going through my insomnia phase and wanted something to relax me as well. This seemed to fit the bill, based on the description.

I have to say however, that this EO French Lavender Body Oil has fast become a bedtime favourite, and one I am already planning to replenish! Oh and it costs under RM40 (US$10.06) so really, what’s there not to love about it?! 😀

New! L’Occitane Almond Body Collection gets an upgraded formula and new slimming care

May 16, 2014 Paris B 30 Comments

I’m not crazy about almonds if I’m to be perfectly honest. I don’t like that Asian favourite of Almond Jelly desserts (I’m not alone am I? 😛 ) and I don’t like the scent of almonds. But there’s one almond product I like and that’s the L’Occitane Almond Shower Oil. Mmm… Pity I’ve run out for now 🙁

As it turns out, L’Occitane is huge on almonds as their almond body collection shows. They’ve always been popular for their almond body creams and lotions which boast skin softening, moisturising, firming and toning effects. I’m told by friends that they swear by the Almond Supple Skin Oil and Almond Milk Concentrate when pregnant to prevent stretch marks.

l'occitane almond collection 2014

Personally, I haven’t tried most of the Almond Collection from L’Occitane so it was interesting to get to know what’s new and upcoming from the collection in the coming months.

If you are a user of the Almond Collection products, you may be interested to know of what’s new and what’s upcoming and you could also tell me what you like from the range 😀

Your Say: What beauty products don’t you care for?

February 25, 2014 Paris B 78 Comments

Hello beauty buffs!

Well, you must be a beauty buff, since you’re reading this blog that’s mostly about beauty, right? 😀 I am a self-confessed beauty buff and I love all these little pampering things we have and use for our skins – makeup, skincare, shower gels…

Yet, there are some products I don’t really care for.

hair nail hand lotions

As I’m sure you do too!

For me, some of these are just products I don’t use, or aspects of personal beauty that do not attract me at all. For others, I’m just not fussed about them.

What are yours? 🙂

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.

P/s yes I also need a haircut - badly 😅
