I can't wait to see the full Manasi depotting video! I discovered Manasi from your IG posts and have been obsessing over them (thank you for introducing me to the brand). I own 5 colors so far haha. I am thinking about depotting them too so I will def stay tuned for your upcoming Manasi video. Oh, how long do the Mansi All Over Colors last for once opened? I don't see myself being able to get through 1 whole pot within a year when I have 5 different colors to use 😅

[@lamouretlamusique]

The obsession is real! I just picked up the newest shade, Rojizo. They technically stay good for one year but likely longer provided you store then at appropriate temps. I know there’s absolutely no way I can use all mine up before they’re go bad but I’ve just factored that in to my experience. Kind of like how I feel about making sourdough bread and sourdough discard…some waste is inevitable and just sort of part of the experience, I think 🤷🏻‍♀️💜

I’d love to see a video update on your fragrance collection!

[@lamouretlamusique]

Hoping before the end of the year!

Thank you for recommending the momi shower product, I love hinoki and oranges. It sounds perfect for fall!

[@lamouretlamusique]

It’s so so nice…I also started using the Mo Mi clarity hand wash and I’m OBSESSED. Beauty Heroes doesn’t carry it but definitely worth a look.

That's good to hear about the True Botanical vitamin c. I really wasn't sure I wanted try it and was a little disappointed when I got it in the BH box. I am going to try to mix it in with my Lepaar oil. I like the idea of mixing it with oil.

[@lamouretlamusique]

Yes it may surprise you. I used it again last night and was a bit overzealous so less is definitely more. Just a small tap is really all you need. Very strong! But worth a try.

[@seysisland]

How do you like to use Sisserou? I’m so intrigued but I worry that it may look too grey on my warm/olive skin

[@jacklynhsu]

Always so fun when you upload a video! :) Now I'm very intrigued about the TB vitamin C booster - is there a particular reason you mixed it with the oil vs a watery serum? Anyhow, always looking for something to brighten the skin! TY!

[@lamouretlamusique]

Not really, either would work! I think I just reach for an oil because it feels more cushiony and acts as more of a buffer to any sensitizing effects.

[@lelikatkinsonova3061]

It always so fun to watch your current favorites since it mostly niche and not talked about in a beauty community. I am a huge Gressa fan, I own almost all shades of her eyeshadows and reach for them more than any other shadows in my collection (and my collection includes Tom Ford, Natasha Denona, Pat McGrath, Viseart). Very curious in trying In fiore. If you can recommend one product from In fiore to start what it would be? P.S. what watch are you wearing?

[@lamouretlamusique]

So happy you enjoyed this! I think the In Fiore Fleur Vibrante Sérum Cerate is a great place to start because of its utility and the price point. My watch is a Longines, a gift from my husband which I absolutely love! I think i have the exact one on my LTK page which is linked below ❤️

Sonia g mini base is brilliant for applying Manasi to apples of cheeks. Fude is a dangerous but divine rabbit hole. Chikuhodo is my favorite although I have a lot of Sonia G that i love as well. I think excellent makeup brushes become more important as one gets older. Thanks for the video! Always a treat:)

[@lamouretlamusique]

Fude I've been eyeing but I'm scared for my wallet lol. Chikuhodo I looked at last year but I think they don't do 100% natural hair brushes anymore? The way they describe their hi-tech synthetic hair brushes (which may be blended with natural) kind of turned me off tbh. I could be wrong though, it was just a cursory look.

[@susanchipman4459]

Sonia g brushes being manufactured in Kumano, Japan are fude brushes. They are quite possibly even manufactured by Chikuhodo but i don't know about that. I do know that they manufacture brushes for many other brands though as well as selling directly to consumers. They sell very few synthetic brushes which I own none of. The vast majority of their brushes are made from natural hair and all of the ones I own are outstanding. Totally get the wallet fear! and I think Sonia G fusion series brushes are also fantastic and best for someone who favors cream products.@@lamouretlamusique

Mercedes! Your video just made my day ❤ Thank you for all the recommendations. I know you are not really fond of moisturizer, is there a summer/early fall moisturizer which is both affordable and accessible to Canadians that you would recommend?

[@fernr3837]

I’m sure Mercedes will chime in, too, but have you looked into Three Ships? They are based in Canada, are affordable, and have both a day and a night cream. Both of their creams are very good (IMHO).

[@beyondcoco124]

@@fernr3837 Thank you!

[@lamouretlamusique]

You are most welcome! The first product that jumped to mind is the Sahajan Nourish crème riche - Canadian Ayurvedic brand and I LOVE that cream. My other favorite is the Free + True Mama Pacha. Three Ships is a wonderful brand rec! I haven’t tried any of their creams but I’m sure they would do the trick too.

[@beyondcoco124]

@lamouretlamusique Thank you Mercedes 😊

[@MarshaABranch]

Have you tried the InLight Cleansing Balm? Heaven in a jar!

[@lamouretlamusique]

Ooof yes I’ve gone through more jars than I can count! A stunner ❤️
