#face cleanser
The countdown to my bday wknd in Barcelona officially starts now! And what a better way to start it introducing our new favorite products directly coming from this wonderful city: Belle Azul.

It’s finally thursday, which means this week is almost done and summer time is really running very fast this year. Let’s put some music on before writing/reading: Cary Brothers - Ride (yes we are spending every evening rewatching One Tree Hill).
So, I may haven’t already told you but last year I spent my birthday in Barcelona, and maybe it have become a tradition (or maybe not) but this year I’m celebrating my 24 years old there again. I love this city and everything about it (even if I still have LOTS to discover there) so I must admit I decided to go back there after discovering Belle Azul on Instagram.
They say Belle Azul - a touch of love, and this quote is perfect to describe the whole product line. After a contest on their Instagram, I was more than lucky to discover a wonderful package waiting for me at home after a looooooong awful day - they really did make my day! Also, should I mention the package was carrying the two first products I absolutely wanted to try on with the team? YES!
Moroccan Hair Serum
If you are already following me for a while you already know I tried on other argan oil for my hair, and I’m a little bit addicted to those. You may say, if something works why not keeping on that product? But you know sometimes you want to try on something new, and also sometimes your hairdresser cuts you 10cm (it was just the points, just the points) and you think you have to change your whole hair products in order to give back everything your hair needs to GROW FAST (but this is another story I will tell you very soon). So this is why I wanted to give a try on the Moroccan Hair Serum which protects, nourishes and conditions your hair.
At first sight, compared to other oils that are too much diluted, this one is very rich, very oily. It seems like they really kept the best of the argan oil and didn’t try to dilute it a lot. I use mine either in the morning, but really just one drop to condition and smooth my dry hair, either before bed time and then I really use more so I can make a little massage into my scalp and give to my hair all the nutrition they lost during the day. Also I realized that the nights I wasn’t applying it, the next morning my hair wasn’t as soft as usual.
My Korean friend, you know her now Caroline, has that very thick hair she just can’t control anymore. Lucky her, her hair is growing very fast but is so dry and thick she is losing patience. She told me that after trying the oil, she could really feel she was conditioning her hair, it was smoother than every and soft. So finallyyyyy I advised her a good product yayyyy!
Dual Facial Cleanser
It’s been a while since I start loving demakeup time, but it has become even more evident when I tried on this one! First the silicone brush - can we talk about how cool it is? It completely removes all the dead skin and make up traces and imperfections you got during the day. I love the feeling on my skin, and compared to other facial cleanser which leave you that dry skin sensation, for the first time my skin is clean but feels hydrated at the same time - thanks to the mix of cucumber and argan. The smell is wonderful also. It really is right now my best discovery in facial cleanser products of all times. The brush isn’t a new big thing, other brands did it, but for the first time brush and product are both making a perfect combination.
This one was tried by myself and my sister Ivana, who definitely loved how easy it was to use and how cool it is to say goodbye to cotton demakeup and bacterias. Compared to other brands she tried before, the brush is smaller but the product is going out very fast and easily (you don’t have to push too hard like on others). But don’t worry, it doesn’t foam lots - which I like.
Where to buy?
Unfortunately you can’t buy those on the official website, hopefully it is for soon, but you can find those on amazon. Here is the official Amazon of the brand.
If there is something I need to take on with my in my suitcase in one week, it is definitely those two products. The argan oil is a must have this summer, especially after tanning or swimming in the ocean your hair needs hydration, and the dual face cleanser is to own for a glowing skin before bed time.
