Beauty hors d’oeuvres: L’Oreal Paris Revitalift Hyaluronic Acid Eye Serum

June 26, 2023 Paris B Leave a Comment

l'areal Revitalift hyaluronic acid eye serum

I attended an event recently for an eye product. Regular readers will know that I don’t use any (I know it flies in the face of all beauty blogging logic, but I don’t!) but I always receive questions about eye products. So really, this one was for all of you! 😀

I also picked this as it was for the L’Oreal Paris Revitalift Hyaluronic Acid Eye Serum, and this is a brand that is easily available and relatively affordable. We all want and need affordable products these days, I know.

While I take it for a little whirl, here’s a little more info on it, if you’re thinking about getting an eye product this weekend.

I’ve never used a clay cleanser so I was surpried that the L’Oreal Pure Clay Cleanser did not strip my skin

December 15, 2017 Paris B 4 Comments

I’m going to preface this by saying that I’m not sure if/when the L’Oreal Pure Clay Cleansers are/will be available here in Malaysia. I was told they’ve been sighted at KLIA, but I could be mistaken. So, if you know, let us all know!

I got these through a friend in Australia, where these, as well as the popular L’Oreal Pure Clay masks are sold. I’ll talk about the masks another day. I just wanted to share my thoughts on the cleansers, because I’d never used a clay cleanser before, and because I thought they were pretty decent for the price! Provided of course, your skin can tolerate them 🙂

PSA: L’Oréal reaches a settlement with FTC : Claims that skincare targets genes is “misleading”

July 8, 2014 Paris B 41 Comments

l'oreal ftc settlement lancome genifique

A few years ago, I attended the launch of the then brand new Lancome Genifique serum. It claimed to be able to activate the gene profile and basically activate your youth from within, and make skin (and therefore you) look younger while helping skin respond more quickly to external aggressors. While I had a very interesting insight into genes and gene therapy during the launch, and a fascinating experiment, I could not help feeling oh-so-sceptical. If this were indeed true, why isn’t this gene activator used in medical research instead of for cosmetics purposes?

Then a year or two later, the trickle-down effect led to the launch of L’Oreal Youth Code Pre-Essence on the same principles. A much more affordable option, Youth Code also talked about genes and their activation and that consumers could crack the code to younger looking skin. I remember receiving an invite to the launch for which a friend attended and reported back.

Well, I hope that as well as both products may have worked for you, you didn’t buy into the gene-cracking, youth-activating claims because as it turns out, they’re now found to be “deceptive and misleading”!

Your Say: What was your “Makeup Lightbulb Moment” that made you say Hallelujah? Here’s mine!

January 28, 2014 Paris B 54 Comments

When I was down in Melbourne visiting Tine last year, we spent most of the cool afternoons at home, chatting about various topics from blogging to makeup and we got to reminiscing about the good ol’ days. Thing is, I’ve known Tine quite a while from early blogging and beauty days so we had a lot to reminisce about.

And one of the things we talked about was that “Makeup Lightbulb Moment”. You know that moment when you put on a makeup item and suddenly it was HALLELUJAH! Angels sing, you are amazed at how much better your skin and you look and you go “So this is what makeup can do! I look like me but better!” 😀

makeup lightbulb moment

You know that moment? 😀

Well I had my lightbulb moment a little late in the day. I’d been wearing just powder or powder foundation for a while with a touch of blush. I was a very simple low maintenance gal… well back then anyway 😉 But one day, I came across an item I’d never thought to use and that lightbulb came on. So, THIS is what makeup can do!

What was it? Ah… take a guess… It’s something I obsess about till today 😉 In fact, it was such an interesting discussion that Tine and I have done a little collaborative post to tell you what our makeup lightbulb moments were.

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 😅
