La Saponaria: Sapone Papavero e Cipresso
Come ho già ripetuto varie volte, la saponetta a cui non rinuncerei mai e poi mai è quella alla shorea di Fitocose. D'altronde ciò non mi impedisce di provarne di nuove :)
In questo caso vi vorrei parlare di una piacevole scoperta: i saponi de 'La Saponaria'.

DIY Deo Roll-On: the Glorious 5 plus 1!
Such a strange title for a DIY, I recognize it. I just found a great recipe for an effective and delicate deodorant, without using alcohol or potassium aluminum. The latter is not a harsh ingredient, but it doesn't allow your skin to breath, because it is a very powerful astringent, so it doesn't let your skin expel the toxins trapped in your body as it should. I'll keep on using potassium aluminum without problems in 'special occasions', otherwise I'll stick with this more physiological version. By the way I've purchased two new deodorants, just to get inspired for future recipes; as soon as I try them out, I will let you know my opinion.

Natural Beauty Wishlist (Spring 2014 Edition)
When spring knocks on my door, I feel the compelling need for change. Changes in life, changes in horizons, changes in thought patterns, changes in perspective. I need radical and total regeneration. Talking about skincare, as you know, I'm always more opting for simple products, better if multi-purpose. I've been mentally planning my escape from this boring everyday life for months and now it's time for me to think about what to carry with me in case I make the move (I will, I just don't know when. I know, it should be now!)
S.O.S. Pureté Cleansing Brush
What makes this cleansing brush so interesting? Usually this kind of tools have quite stiff bristles, that's why I abandoned all of them after a few uses (except for Clarisonic, which has been a savior for my skin). This brush instead is more like synthetic make up brushes, soft and gentle.
I'm not sure it can accomplish its promises (deeply cleanse your clogged pores), but I wouldn't mind to try it out, even if it's quite expensive (21.90€).

NeveCosmetics Flat Perfection
After many reflections, I got Flat Perfection. Again curiosity overcome!
It is sold as a pressed powder foundation, finally a vegan alternative to loose foundation powders. I have nothing against loose powders, I've been using them for years and I'll keep on doing it, but pressed powders are much more handy as you can easily imagine! :)

#95 Aphorism of the week: Women
Women and cats will do as they please,
men and dogs should relax and get used to the idea.

Nourishing Lip Balm by Yves Rocher
This is gonna be a speedy quick review about a Natural Lip Balm by Yves Rocher. It is a real 'Coup de Coeur'!
It contains Acacia Honey to delicately soften your lips, sunflower oil to nourish them (yea perhaps they could have chosen a more valuable one, but it's ok), chestnut extract to prevent them from dehydration and oats to repair them and promote cells renewal.
It has a delicate scent and for its low cost is a great vegetal-based balm, to be used at night or as a protective gloss during the day. I like it :)
