2️⃣ Le French Staple 🇫🇷 💋

Want some French beauty secrets? 🤫 I recently found out about this dry oil which is a staple in French beauty - Nuxe Multipurpose dry oil. Don't let the word oil scare you, because even though it is called oil, it supposedly non-greasy (perhaps that's why it is alco called "dry"?) and goes on smooth, soaks in quick, and leaves your skin feeling super soft. It is perfect for hair, face and body 💆🏻‍♀️. And it smells wonderful, so much so that people buy it just to dab as fragrance. 💨

Here are a couple of variation of the oil - this one has more of a floral fragrance and here is one with shimmer ✨ because why not. Here is how to use the oil. And .. Et voilà! While you are at it, print some custom lipsticks using this lipstick printer (also another French company)

3️⃣ Spin Vinyls Anywhere, Anytime! 🎶 

So you like listening to your vinyls 🎶 but you also live in 2024 and you like portability? Sound Burger, this portable bluetooth turntable with speakers is for you. It does not claim to be a high-end audiophile turntable and neither it is. What it is, is a sleek blend of retro 📻 and modern. Its lightweight design that let's you spin your vinyl anywhere - from a campfire 🔥 to your kitchen 🍳. Initially launched as a limited anniversary edition by Audio Technica, this yummy record player is now freely available due to popular demand.

YOUR TWO CENTS 💡

🏁 That’s all. See you next week
