The daily lemming

Posted by Robin on 17 December 2018 8 Comments

Aftelier has several new natural skincare items to tempt you this holiday. Shown is Geranium Cleansing Oil ("...a nourishing oil cleanser that can be rinsed off with warm water. Wild-harvested geranium essential oil was the best choice for the scent, with its gorgeous fresh, green, rosy aroma, and known for enhancing skin repair, reducing inflammation, superior toning, and anti-bacterial properties"; 33 ml for $35), and you might also consider Lavender Face Elixir ("Our lightweight face elixir is immediately absorbed softening and conditioning your skin. Use on your clean face before bed, and drift off to sleep in a light veil of fragrance that promotes relaxation. When you wake up, your skin will feel wonderfully nourished and revitalized."; 20 ml for $70). The one I really want was already in the mix and I've possibly included in a daily lemming already: Jasmine Face Elixir ("This delightful jasmine aroma is uplifting and relaxing. Drifting off to sleep inhaling this gorgeous aroma makes you feel as if all is right in the world"; 20 ml for $70).

It would be nice to have one of these in my purse. Not $80 nice, mind you, but nice. If they mark them down to 75% off, I might buy one. Rodin's new Face Oil Sticks, available in Jasmine & Neroli ("If you're a fan of Rodin's 'Luxury Face Oil Jasmine & Neroli', then you're going to love this version - it's sized to fit in a tote and has a smooth, balm-like texture that melts beautifully into your skin. Formulated with a blend of rich antioxidants and 11 nourishing oils, it deeply hydrates for a radiant, fresh-looking finish. Glide it onto the tops of cheekbones as a subtle highlighter or rub onto dry cuticles."), Geranium & Orange Blossom, or Lavender. 11g each at Net-A-Porter.

From Fresh, Black Tea Kombucha Facial Treatment Essence: "Black Tea Kombucha Facial Treatment Essence is a silky liquid leave-on formula powered by kombucha, fermented sweet black tea, that increases moisture and luminosity for a radiant, lustrous complexion.

Someone who is familiar with the Korean beauty brand Skinfood will have to tell us if the products smell as good as they sound? My skincare regimen is incredibly simple and works well for me, so I'm not really likely to adopt any new products (much less an elaborate multi-step program) but this isn't the first time I've been attracted by the packaging of something from Skinfood. Peach Sake Toner: "This lightweight, refreshing toner contains rice sake and peach extract, both rich in vitamins A and C, which work to minimize shine and the appearance of pores." $15 for 135 ml at Skinfood US.
