DARPHIN !

PERFECT FOR SENSITIVE SKIN ....

My skin is a sensitive skin so I always search what the new product for my skin, my new found is DARPHIN BEAUTY INTRAL FACIAL SKIN CARE. Actually
I do not have lots of information about Darphin but today I found very nice article about it and I am going to purchase a Darphin ,Soothing Serum this weekend. It may help you if you have a sensitive skin so I will paste that article for you :
Paris may be the home of couture fashion, but it has also created couture skin care. Darphin has specifically designed the Intral range for sensitive skin and it is tailor made to alleviate reactions of intolerance and reduce the appearance of redness. The Soothing Serum and the Recovery Balm use an exclusive combination of active ingredients to calm the skin. Our tester was complaining of red, blemished dry skin caused by the harsh winter weather (wind, cold, central heating) but after using the Soothing Serum overnight, declared her skin was entirely recovered

How to Use Bronzer in Winter

All women have the same problem in the winter time.. Our faces are really white and we try to find some solution to cover our white (!) face. At the ancient time your face had to white if you are in a high class, bronze face was not acceptable for them BUT in our time you need to be bronzer :) and today I read very nice article in beauty.com web site, here is some tricks for us ..
Lets read and apply :)

Ok, if you are as pale as the belly of a whale and you're not happy about it, start using bronzer. The trick to applying bronzer to pale, winter skin is to do it right. You want to look sun-kissed, not sun-drenched. Use a bronzer that's just a shade darker than your skin tone and use a big brush to swipe color on forehead, cheeks, nose and chin -- all the spots where the sun usually shines. Follow with a pink-toned blush to the apples of the cheek.

Orlane Paris

Orlane Paris
Why Does this skin cream cost $650

When the alchemist at Orlane Paris set out to oncoct the ultimate moisturize- the creme de la creme- they liberally mixed cutting-edge technology with ancient Chinese and Egyptian medicinal traditions: Natural royal jelly from bees, acacia senegal, and pure-gold extract-long prized as antiaging remedies-have been filtered through the lab, where they are rendered dermatologically viable.Dubbed Creme Royale, it can be used every day if you want to play the princess

COCO PUFFER : Coco-glycerides ,derived from coconut and fruit sugar,energize skin cells and increase production of collagen, which plumps skin and minimized wrinkles.
WHAT IS THE BUZZ: The Chinese believe royal-jelly supplements boots longevity.Queen bees who eat it live seven years while worker bees who don't indulge live but six weeks.Royal jelly is kept in sealed vials to retain its natural amino acids and B vitamins that brighten and hydrate skin.
SPECIAL ACACIA : Ancient Egyptians applies the gum of the rare African acacia senegal shrub to open wounds.Supremely calming ,it reduces inflammation and redness-ideal for rosacea and eczema.
MIDAS TOUCHED: Injected into skin tissue, ğure gold extract (value at $700 an ounce) attracts collagen and promotes healing .In a cream, it prevents sagging and imparts radiance.
