With Sandie we already know each other a little, but we make you discover her universe in detail and her love story with Miss Agathe.
What is your first beauty gesture in the morning?
A healthy mind in a healthy body, is that the expression? True to the adage, my first thing in the morning is to wash my face. At the moment my routine is very Miss Agathe. In fact, it's with the brand that I wake up, from head to toe. I first apply the rich cream to deeply nourish my skin, then I apply the eye contour serum. Composed of 65% snail slime extract, it gives me a keen eye. Then, because I take care of myself right down to my fingertips, I use the beauty hand cream. Then, of course, the famous breakfast… for the well-fed!
Do you have a favorite natural ingredient?
You hit the mark because this is a subject that is very close to my heart. Indeed, rosemary cream is 100% natural. I love it for its soothing properties. It calms my skin irritations and redness. In the same vein, I also really like aloe vera. In addition to being deeply hydrating, it soothes skin burns such as sunburn. A must when you've been a little too greedy in the sun.
What do you know about the magical powers of the snail?
The virtues of snail slime? Already I would say restorative! But I think the list is long. I also think it's soothing, nourishing and hydrating. These are the powers I have been holding back as I have dry skin. Ah yes and I think there is also the anti-aging side, but for the moment let's say that it is not too much in my concerns.
What are your beauty essentials?
If there were two things I couldn't do without, it's good: first, the face cream to have perfectly hydrated peachy skin; and second, mascara because I'm a redhead!
Do you have a slow cosmetic beauty gesture?
It's a hot topic right now and as a blogger with an audience, you have to take a responsible approach. For my part, I am convinced that every gesture counts, even on an individual scale. So, I try to use washable cottons rather than normal cottons. It may not seem like much, but it does reduce my bathroom trash quite a bit.
A sport or an activity to decompress?
My secret sport: It's no sport. While the others are at the gym, I like to bake cakes to relax. Everyone has their own hobbies!
When do you use Mlle Agathe cosmetics?
Morning and evening ! As soon as I wake up for my morning routine with my eye contour serum and in the evening before going to bed, I use the night cream. It helps cell regeneration and I wake up with a fresh complexion.
What is the effect of Mlle Agathe cosmetic products on your skin?
It's very simple: when I stop using the rich cream, a dry area appears on my chin. As soon as I resume it disappears. I've been using it again for two weeks. It's miraculous!
Why are you loyal to Mlle Agathe products?
Because they walk on my skin. I find the very concept of snail slime brilliant and fascinating. At first, I saw in a report on TV. It intrigued me. I placed an order and the products remained in my routine. Since then, they have never left me.
If you had to describe Miss Agathe in three words or expressions?
I would say: effective, pleasant and smells good (actually when you think of drool you think it's going to have a weird smell… but Miss Agathe is here to prove us wrong).
One last for the road: do you have a cosmetic idea to save the planet?
I don't have a precise idea yet, but quite simply the concept of reducing the use and consumption of our cosmetics – that would be quite a lot.
Maybe if not the invention of a cosmetic that would do several things. Rather than having multiple products, we could have it all in one. What do you think ?
