This is a new cleansing product concept from LANEIGE, enriched with green tea and peppermint. Easy to use, its new format is especially convincing: a mild herbal cleansing tea bag containing real tea and cleansing powder in a tea bag.

You don’t need any cleansing oil, foam or foam nets. You can now cleanse your face with a simple tea bag.

Containing enzyme powder, it exfoliates excess keratin from skin surface. Here is how to use it:

Basically, we could do our own cleansing products at home as well! Let’s be a bit creative 😉

Woman can smell Parkinson’s disease

A British woman who can smell Parkinson’s disease has helped scientists discover 10 molecules linked to the condition which could lead to the first diagnostic test.

Joy Milne, conducting an experiment by sniffing a t-shirt to see if it’s owner has Parkinson’s disease.

It all began when Mrs Milne claimed she detected a change in the odour of her husband six years before he was diagnosed with the condition.

When researchers conducted tests with Mrs Milne they found that she was indeed able to distinguish people living with Parkinson’s from people without the condition by smelling skin swabs taken from both groups.

In one case, Mrs Milne identified an individual who had Parkinson’s, but at the time had not been diagnosed yet with the condition, because the person had no symptoms.

Now scientists have identified the 10 molecules which appear in high concentration of the skin swabs from Parkinson’s patients.

Our future looks much brighter! Happy holidays for you! Yours, Fran   

The ultimate personal fragrance – a skin smell enhancer

After its body care range Body Hero, Glossier is now launching its first fragrance, celebrating everyone’s unique scent. On their website it says the following: “You’ll find that You makes a good first impression, and lives up to it as time goes on. Each note was chosen and balanced to allow the juice to be both long-lasting and true to how it smells at the beginning, without changing as it dries down. In other words, it’s heavy on the base notes. Mostly it smells like you: that familiar human-y note that makes up the body of what you’re smelling. Creamy, sparkling, clean, warm. That’s You.”

*please be advised that the formula comes incomplete; You are the first ingredient*

The three base notes melt in with your skin…
_ambrette: comfy, warm
_ambrox: smooth, salty, animalistic
_musk: long-lasting, addictive

And a mix of top notes say “nice to meet you!” without overpowering the base…
_iris root: earthy, green, woody
_pink pepper: spice, sparkling

Interesting concept! Enjoy your week. Yours, Fran

Here’s an interesting set of masks from South Korean Tony Moly. It’s a 5 days project to beautiful skin, with 5 different masks.

I can imagine all different kinds of applications for these weekday projects… such as home fragrances or hair care etc., where you have different products for each day!

Nice concept! Yours, Fran
