T3 Hand Held Shower Filter: What the Water Gave Me
With beauty, it’s important to go back to the basics. For a minute, forget the powerful cleanser, the exfoliant, and the sweet-smelling shampoo. The fundamental in question here is water. It can be hard or soft, but if you’re lucky, it’s right in the middle. I live in an area with super hard water, so … Continue reading “T3 Hand Held Shower Filter: What the Water Gave Me”
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.

Usually when a brand’s beauty treatments are used in conjunction, the results are better (not always, but I wanted to try this out since I had such a great experience), and this time, they were! The unusual consistency of the … Continue reading “Sentara Eye Balm and White Flower Cream: Hydration Elation”
K. Hall Designs Lavender Cream: Field of Purple Dreams
This is how much I love lavender – I went all the way to Provence (aka the lavender mecca of the world) to visit the museum. As you can probably tell, I’m a real advocate of aromatherapy. When I was in France, I bought a years supply of pure oil, but I’ve finally run out. … Continue reading “K. Hall Designs Lavender Cream: Field of Purple Dreams”
