The Good and The Forbidden

On The Go – Touch Ups and Essentials

June 3, 2015

Carrying a small bag is a challenge. I used to carry a LOT of stuff in my bag. The bags alone can weigh quite substantially. Adding a wallet, keys, charger, myriad of lipsticks.. I got myself a potato sack.

Earlier this year, I change things up by getting a small bag, Céline Trio. For the better, because I didn’t regret it at all and actually should’ve done it sooner. Alas, I was picky about which bag to choose. A smaller bag means downsizing and prioritizing, something that I was very excited about.

This post will cover beauty products I carry on a daily basis and when I go to a special occasion.

TATCHA Luminous Dewy Skin Mist – Eloquently Impressive

November 18, 2014

Ever since TATCHA launched this product, I said to myself, “I gotta have this!”.

How can I not say yes to this:

A silky liquid spray on moisturizer of Squalane, Red Algae and our HADASEI-3 complex can be misted for a boost of soothing hydration, resulting in dewy, luminous skin anytime, anywhere.

“Silky liquid spray on moisturizer”, are you kidding me? I’m sold.

Presenting, TATCHA Luminous Dewy Skin Mist.

I have TATCHA on My Nails

October 24, 2014

If you happen to follow my writings (here and here) and Instagram, you’ll know that I have an affinity to TATCHA, a US-based, Japanese skincare brand that’s created based on the ancient geisha beauty rituals, found in a 200 year-old manuscript. The packaging and the presentation of the brand is breathtaking. And it’s not just some marketing gimmick, the products are actually wonderful.

Speaking of inspiration, this nail art post will be inspired by none other than TATCHA. I’ve acquired quite a few of the products recently and they are just beyond words, so beautiful. And I wanted to do something as a tribute to the brand. A nail art was the first thing that came to my mind.

The image below is one of the TATCHA’s promotional images that became the base of my inspiration.

TATCHA Indigo Soothing Silk Hand Cream – for the lazy bum

October 6, 2014

One of my beauty resolutions that I failed to do every single year is to wear hand cream and body lotion regularly. I always forgot about it *yeah, right*. I’m LAZY. Here’s the thing, my hands tend to sweat, so adding a hand cream usually would just make them even stickier. I spend most of my time in front of my laptop and the condition of the keyboard and body is quite worrisome already, you know, that grease, shiny mess. I wash my hands every few hours and yet.. they’ll get ‘dirty’ in no time.

That being said though, washing hands often obviously is taking a toll. They could get really dry at times and people around me would ask “why do your hands feel so dry? Go and wear a hand cream”. Ahem.

Enter, TATCHA Indigo Soothing Silk Hand Cream*.

BASIC SKINCARE ROUTINE

Cleanse – Hydrate – Moisturize – Protect (SPF)

Sunscreen at daytime, always.
Double Cleanse at night, a must!

Exfoliate regularly, as necessary, and don’t overdo it.
Don’t forget to use a Hydrating Toner after Exfoliating Acid Toner to prevent dryness and irritation.

Opt for calming and soothing products more than anything else. Pick gentle cleansers. Aim for hydration and moisture. Maintain the skin barrier.

Proper hydration and balanced moisturization are key to achieving a healthy skin, even if your skin is oily.

Always be gentle on your skin.

With no less than 10 olfactory categories, it can With no less than 10 olfactory categories, it can be quite daunting in picking which @bonparfumeur_id scent that will suit you.

Thankfully, I do find it quite easy to follow journey and explore the fragrances. Many of the scents are easily loved, yet they don’t feel that mass either. Some of them are light enough to be combined with each other.

It’s also convenient that each scent is available in 3 sizes: 2.5 ml, 30 ml and 100 ml.

Do you have a favorite from this brand?
