Posted by Robin on 29 April 2025 14 Comments

From Feret Parfumeur, Hyalomiel hydrating gel in Violette: "Feret Parfumer's Hyalomiel gel has gone through little change since its inception. The formula has been tweaked and a delicate violet fragrance added, but the packaging retains its retro-chic feel, and its effectiveness remains the same. The sun, the sea, hiking, repeated washing, the wind... have put a strain on your hands and feet. It's time for your skin to rebuild itself by gently eliminating dead skin. Hyalomiel provides softness and suppleness. Its hyaline jelly acts as a transparent protective film." 50 ml for $16 at Smallflower, where you'll also find Hyalomiel Rose.

From Vacation (I still haven't smelled the sunscreen), After Sun Gel: "The Vacation After Sun Gel is a modern take on the after-sun gels you grew up with. It's alcohol-free, features an ARQUISTE designed fragrance, and has a non-sticky, watery feel that quenches, cools, and soothes sunburned skin. It's formulated with a calming blend of aloe vera, cucumber, and bisabolol, replenishing and moisture-regulating Vitamins E and B3, and hydrating glycerin and prickly pear." $12 for 177 ml at Anthropologie.
