NOIRE Ô NATUREL RANGE AND ITS LATEST NOVELTIES

Image
THE AWARD-WINNING NOIRE Ô NATUREL RANGE AND ITS LATEST NOVELTIES As you can see, I remain loyal to qualitative cosmetic brands. They are also often natural or organic, and Noire Ô Naturel is of course one of them. In this regard, I would like to congratulate the brand for its Synergie d'Huiles Capillaires treatment, which appears in the very limited list of the best hair oils (out of 52 beauty products evaluated and 35 different brands) in the Guide 2013-2014 of Best Cosmetics in other words, the cosmetics bible, recommended by the Cosmetics Observatory. With the score of 16.4 / 20, Synergie d'Huiles Capillaires even has the luxury of placing itself at the top of the ranking. Noire Ô Naturel has just released an Organic and Fair Trade Shea Butter (from a women's cooperative in Mali) with scents of citrus , vanilla and other organic essential oils. This butter, smooth and melting, can be used on the face, body and hair. It is the repairing, moisturizing, nourishing and o

MY SUBLIME BOX, MY CHRISTMAS BEAUTY PRODUCTS BOX

MY SUBLIME BOX, MY CHRISTMAS BEAUTY PRODUCTS BOX Last October, I presented here the concept of Ma Sublime Box , an elegant beauty box for black, matte and mixed-race women offering 4 to 5 cosmetics in travel size and / or full size as well as goodies for only 12 € per month (+ 2.90 € postage for delivery to a relay point or 4 € at home). The first box was released this month, therefore, at the right time for the end of the year holidays. I recently received this box and, I kept stars in my eyes! Over the past few days, Ma Sublime Box distilled information in small doses on the launch box, leaving a veil of mystery over the brands present. What we were sure of was that this box would have Organic and Natural Beauty as its common thread . In short, what happiness for me! By opening the box with barely concealed eagerness, I was amazed by the classy and feminine side of the box, the too cute logo of Ma Sublime Box , the card signed by the creator of the box Fatou Sakho addressing a

THE ESSENTIAL ACCESSORY TO FIGHT WITH ELEGANCE AGAINST HALOS It is a proven and proven fact, stress and heat cause perspiration, and ugly halos (size L to XXL) for which soaps, deodorants and antiperspirants can not do much or nothing. To remedy this, some resort to more or less ingenious but often flawed techniques. From now on, you can count on Fresh Code . The brand has studied this phenomenon and uncomfortable, released last year, the fine artillery, delicate, hygienic and natural, creating patches antiperspirant designed for counter any trace of S ignes O stensibles of S tress (dixit   Fresh   Code ).

THE SUBLIMATING LINGERIE OF DITA VON TEESE In this rainy but nevertheless MAGNIFICENT Sunday October 21, let's talk about cloth, more precisely lingerie… And not just any, since it is about the collection Von Follies of Dita Von Teese.

His shows or stage performances are also a real success around the world.

WHEN THE SUN RHYMES WITH LIGHTNESS

WHEN THE SUN RHYMES WITH LIGHTNESS Thanks to the latest summer heat and the continuous presence of the sun, the fluidity, finesse and freshness of body milks are a real blessing.   I present to you my 5 essentials.   I promised myself in this post , to test the care of the Japanese travel beauty kit of the Sultana de Saba , during a weekend abroad or in the provinces but, failing to be gone, I tested them at home. I loved this sensory journey with the scents of Lotus and Neroli ... These fragrances are certainly not customary for me but, they are a source of pleasure, soothing, grace and freshness with an enormous hint of well-being. The exfoliation is gentle on the skin, the shower cream is a real treat and, the quick-penetrating body milk hydrates and nourishes perfectly. The epidermis is silky and subtly scented. I appreciated the 50ml format which allows you to never miss a product for an extended weekend.   When it was oppressively hot, I emerged Milk Firming Moisturizer

ETERNAL SUNSHINE, THE LATEST SUMMER GLOSSYBOX

Image
ETERNAL SUNSHINE, THE LATEST SUMMER GLOSSYBOX   There must be a reason, summer will soon be just a sweet memory (as late as possible of course!). To help us cross the course and close this beautiful season in style, GlossyBox has prepared a dedicated box of beauty products for us. The sand, bare feet, chlorine in the pool and the friction of our feet in spartans this summer, have contributed to weakening our arch. The solution is to cajole them with Pedix Feet Heel Balm Rescue of Alessandrointended to perk up dry and very damaged feet. It's my favorite product. The smell delighted me. It is both fresh, fruity and tangy. My feet are immediately hydrated, nourished and smooth. The coating and non-greasy texture of the cream is a delight. Pedix Feet can also be used on dry areas of the body.  Too bad this treatment was not in full size! To prolong the summer, the team of GlossyBox slid a box of food supplements (in size full ). Doriance Dermo-Nutrition Solaire by Naturactivepr

SKIN SUBLIMATED WITH THE CARE OF BIOCOS LABORATORIES

Image
SKIN SUBLIMATED WITH THE CARE OF BIOCOS LABORATORIES Kariline Look'n Relax beauty products from Biocos Laboratories is the new and only brand of multiethnic cosmetics (a complete line that goes from face to body through hair) present in Large and Medium Surfaces that I already presented to you here , last month. For 3 weeks, I have had the opportunity to test Nutritive Body Lotion with Organic Shea Butter . And I must say that my skin has adhered very well. Nutritive Body Lotion is a very pleasant emulsion to apply because, in addition to being rich, it is non-greasy, gives off a fresh, sweet (almost sweet) and discreet scent. The treatment instantly penetrates, nourishes, hydrates and satinates the skin with lightness, leaving it soft and fluffy. I noticed with some astonishment that Nutritive Body Milk could just as well be used in case of high, medium and low temperatures (which is not always the case for all milks). Indeed, the last weeks having been marked by several perio

BEAUTY BARGAINS ON THE NET

Image
BEAUTY BARGAINS ON THE NET I don't know about you, but when I decide to place an order on the online site of a large perfume or cosmetics brand, I always look for a very long minute on the Net for a promo code, free shipping with possibly a surprise gift. To avoid scattering everywhere and losing precious time, the Codes Promotion site centralizes all our expectations by listing the good plans for all categories. I spotted a few good beauty deals… just to keep it in the summer. Right now, Marionnaud is offering a 20% discount from 3 beauty products purchased. But still, on the occasion of Father's Day which is fast approaching, the online brand also offers 20% discount on Men care . If you appreciate the natural and authentic skincare from L'Occitane en Provence , the brand offers delivery costs with no minimum purchase and a host of good deals at great prices. For gourmets! After having read everywhere that the Chocomania range of The Body Shop was to die for , I invite yo

CELLU-CUP: OUR NEW ANTI-CELLULITE WEAPON

Image
CELLU-CUP: OUR NEW ANTI-CELLULITE WEAPON Under the head of beauty products, Cellu-cup is a brand new concept developed by an ingenious physiotherapist in response to the request of his wife who struggled to find a body free of cellulite following the birth of her second child. We all know, to make cellulite disappear forever, there is nothing better than a manual and energetic massage. However it is a fact, it turns out to be long (at least 15 minutes per day and per zone), tedious and exhausting. To track down his wife's cellulite as well as possible, this physiotherapist was inspired by the ancestral massage of Chinese suction cups . He took it well since in a few weeks, thanks to this ancient technique, cellulite was dislodged. Don't we say that the best soup is made in old pots? To share it with everyone, the couple created Cellu-cup . What is the Cellu-cup  ?  It is a small silicone massage tool that works without electricity. It allows you to reproduce at home like a prof

A TENDERNESS-FILLED GLOSSYBOX

A TENDERNESS-FILLED GLOSSYBOX For the month of May and in tribute to the mothers, GlossyBox has chosen to bring together in one and the same box 5 brand beauty products formerly used by our mothers, perfect for creating retro looks, pop colors, so sixties writes to us GlossyBox . To be honest, I did not really notice this kitsch touch in the selection of products but, of modernism and products adapted to the pre-summer season. Even if it is true that black skins naturally resist the rays of the sun, this resistance remains insufficient and requires the systematic use of sun protection (minimum 10). Do not hesitate to (re) read my posts on this subject here and there . With Lait Soyeux Bronzage Sublime (SFP 15) by Lancaster , an expert in tanning for 4 decades, it's time to get started (or discover) an easy and pleasant sun care beauty products, lightly scented, which leaves no no trace on the skin and which is also non-greasy. Personally, I apply it on my legs just before going out

A NEW SILHOUETTE BEFORE SUMMER WITH POSE DE TRIPOLLAR

Image
A NEW SILHOUETTE BEFORE SUMMER WITH POSE DE TRIPOLLAR My tour of the Darty's Beauty products & Well-being pole begins with Pose, a device stemming from the revolutionary technology of the Tripollar brand. Considered an alternative to cosmetic surgery, Pose aims to sculpt, firm, refine the body and, definitively annihilate this too ugly cellulite ... by being cushy at home. How it works ? Installation incorporates Tripollar technology, that is to say, tripolar radio frequency. It is considered one of the best non-invasive techniques in aesthetic medicine. The three-pole radio frequency constantly emits targeted and controlled energy between 4 poles. The latter is concentrated in the dermis and hypodermis then is transformed into heat to initiate a cellular reaction. Collagen synthesis is thus relaunched (the skin becomes firmer) and activated lipolysis (loss in centimeters) *.   Clearly, Pose produces a feeling of heat or heating (very bearable) which acts on fat cells

Some of these raw materials still little known in Europe as the Prickl

PIKPANOU: HOW IS THAT?

PIKPANOU: HOW IS THAT?   It doesn't look like that but summer is approaching. To try to make it happen faster, I set my sights on the presentation of a very special and very useful object in tropical and temperate latitudes in summer.   Suspense of suspense, in Creole   Pik pa nou means "Don't bite us". It is also the name given to a range of bracelets which main function is to keep away, in the most natural way possible by diffusing aromas (using main active ingredients such as Citonnellol and Geraniol ), mosquitoes in our epidermis. Until then, we are in pure innovation but even more, because ... Jean-Charles Sommerard , a committed producer, trendsetter, well-being perfumer, master in olfactory identity * and, author of several works, has been called to be Pikpanou's nose . It thus offers the wearers of these special bracelets a spicy invitation to travel, to discover small paradisiac islands bathed in sunshine, thanks to the presence of ten organic e
