Your Say: Do you use a Makeup Setting Mist? Here’s a makeup finishing tip I learnt

June 14, 2017 Paris B 18 Comments

I first came across the concept of using a mist to set your makeup many years ago. I was taught then, that a thermal water spray mist could do double duty to set makeup. For a spell, I was using it because it helped powder foundation look less powdery. When I switched to liquid foundation, I stopped.

I remember one day, a friend waxing lyrical about this mist from Urban Decay, that sets and holds your makeup, literally all night long. She swore up and down that her makeup did not budge one bit. Considering that it was a hot evening, and she did still look fairly fresh while I was wilting, I believed her.

But I never tried it, because I never found the need to. I’m one of those people who tends to let nature take its course. If it melts, it melts. But recently, I was taught a new way to use a product I’m not a fan of, and I have to say, I was sold.

But the question is this – do you use a makeup setting mist?

Sharing grape beauty tips and secrets from founder of Caudalie – Mathilde Thomas

May 19, 2017 Paris B 5 Comments

“Good skincare is better than hiding behind a mask of makeup.”

Wise words, from Mathilde Thomas, founder of French skincare brand, Caudalie, when asked for her approach to beauty. I had the privilege of meeting this tall, elegant lady in the beautiful setting of Flutes, at the National Museum of Singapore, during her visit to the region, and it was insightful and inspiring.

I was there, with another 2 members of Malaysian media, to speak to her and to gain a little insight into some new and upcoming products from Caudalie, and to learn a little more about the brand, and the person behind the brand, and her approach to beauty and skincare. So join me as I speak to Mathilde Thomas 🙂

SKINCARE TIP: Use Facial Oil as a mask for a one step lazy day skincare routine

April 26, 2017 Paris B 16 Comments

I’ve got a quick skincare tip for you today, which is one that forms the central part of my lazy day skincare routine. Oh yes, I get those, and as diligent as I am with my skincare, there are days when I just want to vege out. You know those days? When even spritzing on a facial mist seems like too much effort.

Yet, you don’t feel right not putting on your evening face – the layers of lotions and potions. Some days I power through the malaise. Other days, I cheat 😉

Well, I’ll share with you what I do in this instance. You only need 2 ingredients (faster than baking a cake!).

How do you get water out of a raisin? When it is the Caudalie Grape Water (Eau de Raisin) spray!

October 7, 2016 Paris B 23 Comments

Face mists. I have a new-found love for them. The reason is because I’ve incorporated misting into my daily skincare routine for a while now. I use an acid toner, and misting after that helps rehydrate my skin and helps my products absorb better.

A while ago, I received a can of the Caudalie Grape Water spray, but mistook it for the Beauty Elixir (which I’m not much a fan of) so I stuck it away in my beauty cabinet for a while. One day, when I ran out of face mist, I decided to try it.

It didn’t take me long to fall in love with it (and to realise that I was mistaken about it being like the famed Beauty Elixir – it’s MUCH BETTER!). I quickly picked up back up bottles while in Paris, because they were much more affordable there, but I’ve really enjoyed using this, and because it’s so under-rated, I had to share! 😀
