Shu Uemera Youthful Radiance Generator: Turn Back the Clock
I’m a sucker for anything called “youth serum,” and when it comes from my trusted brand She Uemura, I of course have to try it. The essence is made with enju flower (which means longevity in Japanese), a plant known for its persistent life force, and cell-renewing rhamnose. It smells pleasant, albeit a bit old … Continue reading “Shu Uemera Youthful Radiance Generator: Turn Back the Clock”
FIX Malibu Immaculate Complexion Antioxidant Serum: Supremely Smooth
Sometimes good things can come out of bad situations. On a recent weekend trip, I was annoyed to find that I had forgotten my moisturizer.

Rodial’s Dragon Blood
Obviously as a lover of gimmicky things I was initially attracted to Rodial Dragon’s Blood Hyaluronic Moisturiser ($60) because of the name and bright red hue. I’m a major Rodial fanatic (Tummy Tuck and Boob Job are go-to products for temporary firm ups), because they fuse cute product names with great packaging and formulations with … Continue reading “Rodial’s Dragon Blood”
Melvita’s New Nectar de Roses
I have to admit that while I consider it a bonus when a product is organic/made with mostly natural ingredients, it’s not something I actively seek out. I do however have great respect for brands, like Melvita, that were pioneers in going eco before it was the “cool” thing to do. Melvita, which is now … Continue reading “Melvita’s New Nectar de Roses”
