Vichy Destock Ventre

One of the biggest women’s complaints is that annoying “tummy”, that resists the stricter diets and even exercises. Who never wanted to get rid of it? Vichy comes with a novelty that promises to help reduce abdominal fat and maintain skin firmness: Vichy Destock Stomach.

The product is a rapid absorption gel-cream whose active weight loss formula has 5% pure caffeine + pro-firming peptides that help improve microcirculation and firm skin in the stubborn stomach area. For best results, the use of the gel-cream should be combined with an exercise routine and a balanced diet.

Vichy Destock Ventre

I’ve always been super skeptical about these products that promise “miraculous” results, so I was very happy with the brand’s invitation to learn more about the product. After a relaxing afternoon at Nirvana Spa, with an amazing flower petals foot bath and a delicious passion fruit tea, I enjoyed a relaxing massage with Vichy Destock Stomach and loved it!

I’m using the product twice a day, but I’ll only know if the results are positive after 28 days. According to a clinical study conducted by Vichy, after this period, there was an average of 2,25 cm reduction in the abdomen and a 70% firmer skin than with exercise alone. Encouraging, right?

Want to try Vichy Destock Stomach and see if you too can achieve these amazing results?

eating (a lot) in Buenos Aires

I took a mini-vacation last month and spent a week in Buenos Aires, Argentina. The goal? To relax and eat the amazing Buenos Aires cuisine! :)

Many alfajores and a small accident later (with one stitch in my knee), I ended up taking very few pictures. Check out some of them below:

Biolage Smooththérapie MATRIX

I’ve been once again invited by the MATRIX team to visit the headquarters of L’Oréal, to their first Treatment Workshop. The goal was to understand the structure of the hair and discover the best ways to protect it from day-to-day damage.

After hearing the MATRIX experts advice we tested the Biolage Smooththérapie line, that promotes deep hydration with the serum of Camellia flower seed to continuously control frizz in hot, humid seasons while replenishing hair’s moisture during dry cool seasons.

The Smooththérapie line has:
• Deep Smoothing Shampoo
• Deep Smoothing Conditioner
• Ultra Control Deep Smoothing Masque
• Deep Smoothing Leave-In Cream
• Deep Smoothing Serum

Biolage Smooththérapie was created for women with frizzy, unruly hair, that are  seeking discipline, hydration and a natural smooth effect. And the line is ideal for all hair types! Yay!

I was very pleased with the result, my hair is super silky and very shiny. I’m doing maintenance with the full line and I’m loving it!
