Nescafe…..

Remember the old Nescafe commercial? Well, that jingle still remains an important part of my daily morning routine. Don’t know about you, but if I don’t get my cup of Joe first thing in the morning I become a grouchy, grumpy goat for the rest of the day!

Without a doubt, Clarins Beauty Flash Balm is one of the most coveted and talked about beauty products in the beauty world. The product that is specially formulated to cover and lift dull, tired skin is a cult classic from the brand. Living up to its claims and hype, Clarins beauty flash balm is one such beauty product that has clearly stood the test of time with an ever growing fan following.

You won’t believe, but it’s true – the balm that costs a whopping $48 for a 50 ml tube, sold on an average of one tube every seven minutes during the first half of last year alone! I first got to know about this product years ago in one of Lisa Elridge’s recommendations. But I happened to get my hands on this product only now – thanks to hubby, who picked it up from one of his trips to Paris. Continue reading
