A bit ago, I went to get a facial. I listed dry skin as one of my concerns. The aesthetician took a look at my face and remarked that she didn’t think I had dry skin. I wonder if this is the product that fooled her. I had been using this Cle de Peau serum…

What if you’ve been wrong this whole time?

Pure Rosewater from Chantecaille
A few quick spritzes of rose water onto my face. The scent alone is calming and brings me a sense of piece. When I first spritzed myself with the Eau de Rose de Mai from Chantecaille, I felt different. When I first tested the product, I would spray it on after as a last step…
