Bathroom Essentials – The Luxury Edition

This last Sunday, it was clear. Rain or sunshine, wailing kids or sleeping angels, something or nothing on tv, I just didn’t care. After a heavy week, a few sleepless nights and my sister’s bachelorette party, all I could think about was a bath! A long, hot, pampering session in my white personal haven, my bathtub, not even a stern Karl Lagerfeld could stop me! A super pamper calls for the luxe products to  come off the shelf, and a good sprinkling of the Susanne Kaufmann Deacidifying Alkali Salt is the perfect first step. Not just any regular bath salt, this organic composition calms down stressed limbs, eliminates any and all waste products from you skin and reduces the acidity levels so that it remains blanced and less prone to  rashes and other reactions. It’s the very first poduct I’ve tried from the Susanne Kaufmann Collection, and I must admit I am curious to discover more! Next up, my hair gets the full works with the Balmain Hair Care Repair Mask to get my strands …

Balmain Hair Care – Part 2

Luxury and LeenLovesStyle, they go together like peas in a pod. A few months ago I already spoke of wanting to try the Balmain Hair Care range, and guess what… The allure of Haute Couture Hair and K’s raving about this range proved to be too much, so I gave in. The Balmain Moisturing Line Gift Set made it’s way towards me not long after my previous article, and I’ve been testing it ever since. The Moisture Line Gift Set contain the Moisturizing Shampoo, The Moisturizing Conditioner and the Repair Mask. A triple moisturizing threat for my manes, but did it really give me that shiny effortless chique hair of the Parisian woman that I craved? The entire Moistuzizing line is built upon the strenghts of argan oil and silk protein , it aims to be deeply nourishing, revitalizing and softening for both natural and coloured hair. Additional UV filters, heat- and colour protectors are designed to keep our hair silky smooth, supple and shiny. But what did my full head of sun-bleached tresses think …

Balmain Hair Care

A great deal of raving about this line by Katia has tickled my interest, and I am now on the brink of shelling out the big bucks to give this line a try and see if it is all it is cracked up to be. Haute Couture Hair Care does have a certain ring to it (luxury kitten over here, I admit it…), and when you look at the description of the two product lines within the range, it really sounds promising. The Balmain Hair Couture comprises of 2 different lines, the Moisturizing & Volume Line, and the Styling Line. Both containing silk protein and argan oil, combining the know-how of the Parisian house and the strength of the ingredients to get that Ooohh-la-laa worthy shiny effortless chiq hair of the Parisian woman. Add that signature Balmain fragrance in the mix, and you’ll understand why I am so keen n trying this range. And as if that wasn’t enough reason, the packaging is a sight for sore eyes as well. Sleek, clean, no nonsense but …
