I sometimes feel like sleep aids are made or created by people who don’t really have a sleeping problem. If you do, you will know that a drop of lavender does nothing but smell nice. I have a sleeping problem, and think I’m authority enough on the subject!

That said, I do not have chronic insomnia, which I consider a blessing. I used to sleep like a log when younger. I’d sleep through anything – fireworks, noise, crowds – I could curl up in a corner and drop off just like that. So my sleeping problems crept up on me over the years. It isn’t so bad that I need medication, but I am always game to try any sleep aid!

These days, I go through bouts of sleeping through the night, and days when I don’t. When I do, my eye bags reduce in size and my skin looks clearer and better. When I don’t, I have eye trunks (not bags), and my skin dulls. Regulars will also know of my neverending battle with sleep – it’s something I’ve been battling for years so every night I sleep comfortably is a blessing!

I am therefore, always on the lookout for sleeping aids to help me go to sleep that more easily, and more importantly for me, stay asleep. One of the things that I tried are pillow sprays. REN Skincare has just released a new product, the REN & Now to Sleep pillow spray, and I have been trying it out for a while. Let me also share with you my thoughts on whether pillow sprays work, for those of us who have a sleeping problem.

I have been asked if my focus is only on luxury brands and products. It does seem that way because I am picky. But if I’m to be honest, so what if it is? I’ve earned my stripes, and if people deem bloggers to be aspirational, then everyone aspires to some luxury in their life.

So, I’m unashamedly featuring the La Mer Sheer Pressed Powder today, a new release from a few months ago.

Now, lets get the nitty-gritty out of the way. La Mer is a luxury brand, with prices that befit its status. When they release a pressed powder therefore, it isn’t likely to come cheap. Like all luxury products therefore, it is something to aspire to own.

But more importantly, is it any good?

I wanted a classy, fashionable and functional backpack and The Clässy Gaston Luga Backpack fit the bill perfectly

Some time last year, I was introduced to Gaston Luga – a brand of backpacks that had a sleek Scandinavian design that is currently quite in. It was a canvas backpack that was different from many of the bags I carry, and I found it surprisingly useful. But also rather larger than I expected.

So, when the opportunity arose again to try another one of Gaston Luga backpacks, I picked the Clässy design and you know what? This one’s classy!

For anyone who is looking for a fashionable, yet practical backpack, I’d suggest that you take a look at the Gaston Luga Clässy backpack. As you can see from my modelling shots (ha!) the size is much better suited to my height for day-to-day use, compared to the Classic backpack which I feel better suits travel.

Let me show you a few more pictures, and I actually used this while on my year-end holiday in Bangkok last year, so I can tell you that it’s a travel work-horse too! 🙂

I enjoyed the Sulwhasoo Concentrated Ginseng Renewing Creamy Mask but convenience always comes at a price!

While the Korean wave in skincare does not seem to be abating any time soon, there are only a few brands, among the hundreds out there, that capture my imagination. One of them is Sulwhasoo. I am a die-hard fan of their Overnight Revitalizing Mask, and I’m one of the few people out there who truly enjoys using their Concentrated Ginseng Renewing Cream. This is primarily because I don’t mind the scent of Asian herbal roots and ginseng. I find it soothing.

Last year, I was introduced to a (then) new sheet mask in their range – the Sulwhasoo Concentrated Ginseng Renewing Creamy Mask. While I do not use sheet masks as often as I do wash-off cream masks, I am not above using them purely for convenience. And the idea of all that lovely Sulwhasoo ginseng goodness in a luxurious sheet mask caught my imagination.

Let me first say that this one’s definitely catered for those with more matured skin – skin that needs moisture, firming and radiance. For younger skins, you won’t see the benefits, and really, it won’t be worth spending your money till you’re older. Being in the target age-group for this range, I was naturally intrigued! But when I tried it, there was something else that impressed me – the fit!

The Dior Lip Glow 2018 Glow Squad expands with a Matte Glow and Holographic Glow

When the Dior Lip Glow first arrived on the scene quite many years ago, it was pretty much deemed to be just another tinted lip balm. It came in only one shade, which tinted lips a hint of pink. I wasn’t really a fan because lip balm isn’t something I use, and neither was pink lipstick. But it was a big hit! Then, last year, they released the same product in the limited edition shade Berry, and I was hooked!

So, when a bunch of pretty balloons arrived, together with brand new Dior Lip Glow formulations for 2018, my interest was piqued.

Realizing just what a sleeper hit they had on their hands, Dior has now expanded the Dior Lip Glow Color Reviver Balm range to include not only new shades, but new textures. I find the new textures very interesting, because the idea of a “matte balm” is rather oxymoronic 😛

Alongside the regular Lip Glow, which is a plain tinted lip balm, there is now a Matte Glow version, which goes on matte and velvety, with a tint of colour; and Holographic Glow, which is a tint of colour, with iridescent shine and sparkle. I couldn’t quite get my head around Matte Glow, but I learned something interesting on how to use Holographic Glow that I can share with you 😀
