My skin is dryish and I use sheet masks about every two nights and sleeping masks every night. It is very hot around here so sheet masks feel lovely after a long day. When I was visiting up North, I realized they would be quite a different experience in a cooler climate, so not sure how often I would do them there. Weekly perhaps?
Poppy the Fresh balm is beeswax-based so that's a thumbs-up from me. Fresh products have quite a following in the US, I think it is a combination of attractive packaging, lovely scents, good positioning in places like Sephora, and the prices are about right - it's a treat but still within reach.
I'm using a jar of mineral makeup this week. Biore sunscreen is an excellent base, fast drying and not sticky.
DD2 developed a strep throat infection last night, so I have cancelled my clearout and work plans to be in full childcare mode today. Our nanny was supposed to have a minor operation yesterday, it was cancelled and she had to run around the hospital all day trying to understand what went wrong, shocked and angry and miserable. Finally they told her to come back early this morning to reschedule, so she is there now, fingers crossed. Friends and colleagues have explained that this type of confusion is normative in public hospitals, someone we know had to show up at the hospital three times before the procedure actually took place. Our nanny told that there were twenty people there yesterday, many with cancer, frantically looking for the surgeon trying to find out whether they were going to have their operation or not. I promise to never moan about my parcels any more, those are really minor inconveniences...
