Eau de parfum Blue and Gold

Eau de parfum Bleu et Or par Noémie pour Daniel Jouvance

Eau de parfum Blue and Gold for by Noémie Daniel Jouvance

Once will not hurt, I'm going to call my dear readers. I received a gift with an order, some time ago already, the eau de parfum Blue and Gold for by Noémie Daniel Jouvance .

From the first application I loved the smell of this perfume very feminine and sophisticated. Wanting to anticipate the end of the bottle I went, passing first on Ebuy club to receive cash back, the site of Daniel Jouvance. What was my disappointment in finding no trace of this product on the site.

It is true that the bottle offered, as far as I can remember when I had ordered, was presented as a limited edition. What a pity! In doing my research on the site, I learned that the famous Naomi was none other than the daughter of Daniel Jouvance and she held the dual activity as a painter and makeup artist. Trained in a perfumer, she created her own line of perfumes.

Yves Rocher Rose Absolute

Eau de parfum Rose absolue d'Yves Rocher

Rose Absolute Eau de Parfum by Yves Rocher

Admit as much right away I'm not a fan of perfumes Yves Rocher and long ago I gave up buying. So when I received the Rose Absolute Eau de Parfum as a gift for my birthday I was not really packed.

Rest assured my good upbringing forbade me to score any pout on the gift and I warmly thanked the donor. So full of prejudices, I opened the box and I found an attractive bottle filled with a pretty pink liquid. First good point! I dreaded opening it to smell an odor of rose aggressive. Not at all! The subtle mix cinnamon, rose, patchouli and tonka bean appears to be very soft and pleasant. Second good point!

I wear this scent everyday and I never tire of it. It is very feminine and lasts all day without problem. Third good point! The lack of uniform was one of the criticisms made me abandon the branded perfumes. I do not know yet if I will redeem it when the bottle is finished but at least it makes me reconsider my views.

Anti-breakage treatment for nails

Soin anti-casse pour les ongles

Care anti-chop nail Yves Rocher

If like me your nails are brittle and brittle you are probably looking a solution to this problem. I'm testing right now the anti-chop care of Yves Rocher .

The manual mentions that this rich balm and melting makes nails stronger and stronger. Thanks to its formula enriched with cocoa butter, it nourishes nails and their contour. It provides flexibility and flexibility in nails dry and brittle. Thus refreshed, they are more resistant to shocks.

My first impression is that the nail tip shape is not necessarily very practical. It is not easy to extract a little thick cream and bring just the right amount. The texture is quite oily, but that's normal since it is to fight against the drought of the nail, massage and you have long fingernails to rub the balm.

I perform this operation just before bed in the morning and I found very soft nails. Their surface is smooth and very pleasant to the touch.

Beautiful naked

I take my vacation to watch TV shows that begin and end later that I did not allow me to do when I work. This is how I discovered the show "Beautiful naked" by William Carminolla .

The concept of the show is to follow the route of plump women or complexed by their silhouette. The host likes women, not in the sense of the word love, but he door on them a kind look, full of tenderness. He does not judge them, not criticizing them but makes them aware of their strengths.

To him all women are beautiful even if they are not perfect. It confronts them with other strong women or obese and asks them to fit among them to where they feel is in their place. Mostly, they do not know where they stand and are being much larger than they actually are.

It forces them to confront their reflection in the mirror and undress please what is a first step towards acceptance. He challenges them to be photographed naked by a great photographer. Rest assured these are glamor photos and not porn. Beforehand he entrusts the care of a makeup artist and hairdresser for a complete makeover and it teaches them how to dress. The key word is to mask its flaws and put its assets in value by tricks. William is a fashion expert who has a long career as a model and stylist behind him. He worked with the biggest and is an expert on the subject.

Cosmetic surgery

Being passed into the hands several times, certainly experts, surgeons for procedures imposed on the medical, I do not understand that one can deliberately choose to go under the knife for a cosmetic reason.

These operations on my own I have nothing particular to say but I remember waking up in the halls eponymous post-operative care very painful, long convalescence and many other inconveniences which I still do not inflict not the list. I paid a heavy toll on my health and disease has been well underway. So I vowed that I never will operate but not required.

Note that I do not criticize those who do, after all they are free to dispose of their person, but I am sharing my misunderstanding. Any intervention has risks and failures sometimes cause irreversible damage. This does not seem frightened at all the candidates for artificial beauty.

In some countries, like Brazil , parents even offer these interventions, costly moreover, to their children. Fashion, since we must use that word, reaches more and more countries. The case is unmarked. Cosmetic surgery becomes an act of consumption, encouraged by unscrupulous doctors, more eager than deontologists.

The Tour Operators are not standing still and offer packages "vacation"'s transactions. A short stay in Tunisia , come back with a brand new nose, breasts pumped or buttocks! The postoperative follow-up required is swept under the carpet.
