Nuxe Spa

While I was pregnant a couple of months ago, I found my own personal eden, otherwise known as the NUXE Spa. I have written about the NUXE products before, which I love and use on my face, hands and all over the place. So when I found out that there was a Nuxe spa in the centre of Paris that offered pregnancy massage I had to check it out! It was truly amazing. Firstly the spa itself is beautiful. It’s tucked away off the side of the frenetic pavements around Les Halles, and you feel like you are stepping out of Paris when you arrive. Also the treatment rooms must be bigger than an average Parisian flat (I really don’t like those poky little boxes you sometimes find in spas). The massage was wonderful and relaxing and the cheeky little facial I treated myself to was fantastic too.

Almost worth getting pregnant all over again…. (Of course I don’t mean that seriously)!

Cirier Candles

There is nothing better than a good candle to create a civilized atmosphere after a long day with kids.

Some of my favorites are the scented Cirier Candles. CIR is one of the oldest candle producers in France and they produce candles for Guerlain, Cartier, Fragonard and many more.

Our friend Belinda introduced them to me (she bought so many that the owner of the shop thought that she was going to start up a shop)! The lovely thing about these candles is the little shop in the 6th arrondissement in Paris in which the staff take their time with every customer to find the right candle for the right occasion. I love their poetic description of each scent.
