It’s a dog’s world


Having a pet it’s more than playing with an amusing plush, it’s about enduring and knowing unconditional love.

Thousands of pets are abandoned each year and the lucky ones are adopted. Other thousands are bought in pet shops and raised in homes as another member of the family.

As children, they can be obstinate sometimes, but they are unbelievably thankful and loveable, always welcoming you warmly; a little affection it’s always returned endlessly. Walking and playing can keep you fit and give you the time of your life. They’re really smart and adventurous, and loyal over all. They comfort when you are sad, keep by your side when you are ill, and warn you when they notice something strange. And they are always funny and surprising.

Companion for an average of 14 years, they can teach you things you would have never expected, and certainly improve your quality of life. In exchange you just got to walk them, feed them, and keep them clean.

Perfume: Scarlett by Cacharel

If in 1987 the release of Loulou caused a stir, Scarlett has the charme to become another classic. Don’t be fooled by its vintage design, there’s more bite than meets the eye.Famous for its mysterious women, with the allure of 20s, 30s, and 40s, Cacharel chooses an indie cover of the classic Close To Me of The Cure, to introduce this new woman played by Skye Stracke. If with Loulou they just called her and she replied “oui, c’est moi” (“yes, it’s me”), they prefer to keep the secret with Scarlett; when the man asks “Scarlett, who are you?”, she remains silent, the only answer it’s the logo “the secret lays within”. A secret of powdery stylesque tones, of a naughty Lolita that reminds Liv Tyler, smelling to a blend of jasmine, tea, honey, sandal, poire, and honeysuckle.

On the other hand, we find one of the most beautiful containers seen in a while, a top with impressed flowers, a precious sculpture to keep on everybody’s sight.

The range starts with cologne in sizes 35 ml, 50 ml, and 80 ml, and completes with a deodorant (150 ml) and a body cream (200 ml).

Barefoot

Feet support the weight of the whole body and, still, are the most forgotten area. After a long working day, spoiling them can make the difference.

Hidden, we notice them barely but when spring comes and we start wearing sandals, then we come across the disaster, feet that seem eager to play a horror film, dry and rough. To keep them like a baby takes some nice and easy pampering every day.

Doubtless, heels make look fabulous, optically enlargening our legs and making us look better proportioned, but they are harmful mostly if they are over 5 cm and stilettos. Not for free, they are the cause of several low labor and in United Kingdom, according to The Telegraph newspaper, in late September it’s been debated to banned them at work, as the wearers could suffer of “short-term health problems or longer terms injuries to their knees”, Lorraine Jones, of the Society of Chiropodists and Podiatrists says. So, whenever possible avoid them and remember that very flat shoes are as harmful for your health.

If you work standing, use compression stockings for improving your blood circulation and if you use safety footwear, use socks off that would make your feet feel more comfortable.

At home, use a massage roller for feet. It’s made of interconnected rollers that will relax your sole after walking over them. Then you can go for a bath or if you need an extra, a spa (Scholl Party Feet Foot Spa or Ufesa Foot Spa Aqua Plus Relax). Pour bath salt (The Body Shop Peppermint Reviving Foot Soak), and enjoy for a few minutes. Next, clean with the appropriate washer, dry your feet, and apply a cream to soften them, better with lavender or mint in its formulation (Yves Rocher Lavande Essentielle High Comfort Foot Cream or Lush Fair Trade Foot Lotion).

Weekly, you can go for a pedicure, with a scrub (The Body Shop Peppermint Soothing Scrub) and a mask (Yves Rocher Lavande Essentielle 3-minute Restorative Mask Sore Feet or The Body Shop Peppermint Purifying Foot Mask), and sleep with moisturising socks (Bliss Softening Socks). When partying, don’t forget in your bag the plasters (Compeed Blister Hydrocolloid Plasters) and cold spray (Boots Botanics Cooling Foot and Leg Spray or Scholl Party Feet Cool&Refresh Spray).
