I am really made of awesome!

Praise the gods, Yves Rocher stores exist in Finland and there are two in the center of Helsinki!

Too bad I bought new shampoo and stuff yesterday... ah well, who cares! Praise the gods that I won't have to look up such words as "astringent lotion" and "pore refining cream" in the dictionary! Even in France they had everything written in French and in English, which is rather rare, so here, it must be Finnish/Swedish/English. Oh do hope it is.

I think I shall drop by there next Wednesday before going to the restaurant or maybe even on Thursday. We'll see, it's not like I need any of the stuff asap.

haha, it's one of my fave stores here in germany! btw, what would you recommend as a good moisturizer from there?

I have never used a moisturiser per se but Yves Rocher have lots of lotions which contain mosturiser stuff in them... here is the stuff from the French website, I don't know if it's the same everywhere:

- my favourite lotions:
-- first off to purify: http://yves-rocher.fr/control/product/~category_id=B1312/~product_id=35832/~hbxSrc=
-- then to make pore smaller/moisturise (and take make-up off):
http://yves-rocher.fr/control/product/~category_id=B1312/~product_id=67072/~hbxSrc=

- my favourite mosturising mask:
http://yves-rocher.fr/control/product/~category_id=1300/~pcategory=1000/~product_id=23713/~hbxSrc=

followed by either the fresh or the "hydratante" mask.


Anyway, most of the time the ladies in the store know what they're talking about, unless they really do look 18, then honestly, they're there just to act pretty.
