Redefining Body Balm 180ml Dhs764 Tata Harper I am obsessed with the smell and the rich texture, which moisturizes my skin when it’s feeling dry. I started using this when I was expecting my first son and now when I smell it, it sends me back to this magical time for a short moment. By reducing the appearance of fine lines, it gives that ultimate youthful effect. Cologne Indelebile perfume spray 100ml for Dhs1,075 Frederic Malle He is undoubtedly my favourite perfumer, as the musk accords are both irresistible and sophisticated. This clean yet bold scent, is something my better half wears, as he knows it’s undeniably tempting.

By reinventing the traditional dry shampoo routine, this rechargeable tool gives me an effortless hair look anywhere and anytime. L’essentiel Peau 60 capsules B Combeau I try to take food supplements regulary and this one is perfect for all skin types. It’s rehydrating and prevents any signs of ageing.

much, this sunscreen meets all my UV deflecting requirements. During summertime, it’s perfect for hydrating my skin and is weightless, scentless and is absolutely game-changing.

Not only does it have the perfect transparent pink tone, but it also takes care of your nails.
