Since last year, the buzz around Sunday Riley has been quite unprecedented, especially online. I can’t count the number of raving reviews, especially for people who are searching for an good anti-aging solution and who have an acne prone skin.
Some of them even consider Sunday Riley products as miracle products. And well, as a true skincare junkie, I’m all about trying claimed miracle products for my old acne-prone skin! :P
Tata Harper Purifying Cleanser, my review
I was literally dreaming about trying a product from the oh so desirable Tata Harper skincare range! It’s now reality with the Purifying Cleanser, a detox face cleanser.
L’Elixir du Marabout by Garancia, my review
On paper, L’Elixir du Marabout by Garancia has everything I need.
A 2-in-1 treatment for both acne and anti-ageing, the composition is not bad at all with a lot of natural ingredients, the fact that it’s a French pharmacy product, so not too difficult for me to find (well, not really in Dubai, but I can find it easily when I’m in France on holiday or I can also use my good old Shop and Ship), all this was so tempting!

The truth about serums
Skin perfecting serum, anti-aging serum, hydrating serum, foundation serum… Quite confusing, isn’t it? Serums are more and more accessible but they’re also somewhat a cash cow for cosmetics laboratories. You can find all kind of serums, but can they all really be considered a “serum”? A foundation serum like the last Dior, what is it exactly? A serum […]

BB creams are so over! Cushion creams are the latest innovation made in Korea, and beware: you will probably see them everywhere in 2015! Whaaat? Cream in a cushion?

10 key questions for an effective skincare routine
Inundated with information about skincare? Feeling it’s impossible to find an effective skincare routine… We often hear anything and everything about the skin: ‘the right gestures’, the miracle skincare products promising a ‘complete transformation of your skin’…
In this post, I want to focus on questions that I have often been asked in my professional life.
I worked for a cosmetics brand as a trainer for spas and beauticians for almost 10 years. I have often met regular customers in pharmacies, department stores, beauty counters while I was training the sales personnel…
Bombarded with so many cosmetics adverts, magazine articles and of course beauty blogs, why wouldn’t you feel overwhelmed. It’s so tempting to buy the latest skincare product from [fill in the blank] because you so want to believe in miracles. And of course at the end, more often than not, you feel disappointed.
