#la mer review

[christine-ye]

I can't believe it. I'm officially done with rewatching Tropical Rouge, and it's now the first PreCure season I've rewatched from start to finish. While still very flawed (especially in its storytelling and use of its motifs) and could've been better, I found it more enjoyable the second time around compared to the first during its original run. 7.5/10

Blogmas: guys we have a La Mer sample! 🤍

Hi guys,

Guys I think I may have gotten the best skincare sample of my entire life! I was browsing the makeup and skincare counters at John Lewis and my friends were looking at the La Mer counter. Now while I love my skincare the most expensive cream I will ever buy is Magic Cream and that is my complete limit. Now imagine how shocked I was when I noticed that a La Mer 15ml cream is £80!!!

Honestly when I saw the price I think the main working the counter saw how shocked I was because he asked if I was okay ( I must of gone more pale than usual). The lovely gentleman started talking about the brand and the benefit of the products and while he was amazing at his job it was a line I'm not crossing. After he was finished talking about the product we all started heading to another counter and he told us to stop and bless his soul he gave us all a 7 ml sample of the iconic La Mer The Moisturizing Cool Gel Cream.

Once we left the counter we realised that sample if worth £40!!!! it's completely insane. The moisturiser itself is meant to be a cooling gel delivers soothing moisture for a refreshed feel. It leaves your skin looking naturally vibrant and restored to it's healthiest state. La Mer products include miracle broth is the famous ingredient featured in all La Mer products / collections, apparently it infuses skin with sea-sourced renewing energies (again this is information is from their site). Sounds crazy when you read their descriptions, now personally I have never bought a La Mer cream because the prices range from 15ml £80.00, 30ml £155.00 and 60 ml £290.00 which is insane!

Now does this cream feel amazing on my skin? Yes Does my makeup sit really well on top? Yes. But will I be buying a full size? Heck no! Personally I am happy to stick with my Magic Cream (which let's be honest is expensive enough!), though it was nice to finally try the iconic cream. As always all products mentioned are linked above, though I don’t know who’s buying a cream for that price lol.

Lots of love

[hedgehog-moss]

do you ever read scifi or fantasy in french? i am trying to read more sff that was originally published not in english but it's not easy to find 💀

I do! It’s not my favourite genre but one of my friends loves it so I read a bunch of SFF books every year ahead of her birthday to try and find a gift for her. I’m glad I do this because it’s allowed me to discover N.K. Jemisin’s Broken Earth trilogy which was amazing, and I don’t know if I would have picked it up otherwise!

Here are some French-language authors I’ve read or plan to read (unfortunately English translations are few and far between :( I bolded the names for which I found English translations—if you read in another language you can check out the non-bolded authors, there are often translations available in other languages long before English ones)

When it comes to classics you've got Pierre Boulle (Planet of the Apes of course; also Garden on the Moon, which is (deservedly imo) less known), Jacques Spitz (La Guerre des mouches—it was translated but not into English), René Barjavel (The Ice People, Ravage, Future Times Three—I read them a long time ago but I remember them as very sexist even by French classic standards), Bernard Lenteric (La nuit des enfants rois), Alain Damasio (La Horde du Contrevent—maybe too recent to be a classic but it’s everywhere. I was surprised to find no English translation!), Bernard Werber (I feel like he rehashes the same 3 ideas again and again but some of his earlier stuff was fun), Alexandre Arnoux (Le règne du bonheur), Jules Verne of course, Stefan Wul (Oms en série which was adapted into the film La Planète sauvage—Fantastic Planet in English. I like the film better!) And some I haven’t read: Georges-Jean Arnaud, Serge Brussolo (I liked his Peggy Sue series when I was in middle school but it spooked me so much I haven’t dared to pick up any of his SFF for adults, like Les semeurs d’abîmes), Élisabeth Vonarburg.

Newer authors: Estelle Faye (L’arpenteuse de rêves, Un éclat de givre—I tend to like her worldbuilding more than her plots); Sandrine Collette (The Forests—if you count speculative fiction as SFF) (I didn’t like it at all personally but others might), Jean-Philippe Jaworski (I really liked Janua Vera; didn't like Gagner la guerre but it was mainly because I have a low tolerance for rape scenes in fantasy books) (he’s about to be translated into English according to his editor), Stéphane Beauverger (Le déchronologue)

More authors I haven't yet read: Pierre Pevel (The Cardinal's Blades—I've been told it's "17th century Paris with dragons"), Romain Lucazeau (Latium), Laurent Genefort (Lum’en), Christian Charrière (La forêt d’Iscambe), Roland Wagner (La saison de la sorcière), Aurélie Wellenstein (Mers Mortes—I love the synopsis for this one), Magali Villeneuve (La dernière Terre, trilogy)

And non-French, non-anglo SFF authors: Maryam Petrosyan (my review of the Gray House last year was that I understood maybe 1/3 of it but I liked it anyway!), Hao Jingfang (haven’t read her yet), Arkady & Boris Strugatsky (idem), Jaroslav Melnik (I’ve read Espace lointain (originally Далекий простір) but didn’t like it much), Andreas Eschbach (The Carpet Makers), Walter Moers (I read The City of Dreaming Books back when I was still learning German and found it very charming), Liu Cixin (I loved The Three-Body Problem but The Dark Forest was so sexist it made me not want to pick up the third volume), Lola Robles (El informe Monteverde, translated as Memoirs of an Interstellar Linguist), Elaine Vilar Madruga (Fragmentos de la Tierra Rota), Tatiana Tolstaya (The Slynx), Karin Tidbeck (Amatka), Emmi Itäranta (Memory of Water, The Moonday Letters), Angélica Gorodischer (I’ve read Kalpa Imperial and found it only so-so but it always takes me a while to warm up to characters or a setting so I struggle with short story collections. I’ll still give Trafalgar a try) Also my favourite fantasy book as a kid was Michael Ende’s Neverending Story, I was obsessed with it. I re-read it in the original German a few years ago and it was still great.

So I’m on sephora.com because I can’t keep a dime in my purse to save my life while watching reviews of products on youtube

Anyway somebody in the comments said the brush this girl was using was $60+ from la mer and it got me thinking about that expensive prank of tiktok

imagine you set up your phone to record and he’s in the kitchen making lunch and he overhears you, “ok you guys I bought this eyeshadow palette on sale for $399”

And he chokes on his drink because yeah he said you could use his credit card but that much for makeup?

“Baby! You spent $400 on eyeshadow?”

And you pause. Looking between him and the camera for full effect. “No Stevie it was on sale for $399”

“I—what does it do that the others don’t?”

“Stevie I’m filming. And it has duo chrome shadows”

“What?”

“…anyway you said I could use your Amex,” you pout.

“Yeah baby i did. I just want you to tell me. No secrets between us, especially with finances. Didn’t know makeup could cost so much. Maybe next time I can help you look for a coupon though”

You watch him come over with two plates of food. He doesn’t even know Sephora has no coupons. He’s still taking care of you all these years later.

He’s so sweet you give up on the prank and come clean. He kisses your forehead, not even bothered by your trickery. You’ll have to up your game for the Gucci ostrich bag prank 🤭

How can we improve public health communication for the next pandemic? Tackling distrust and misinformation is key

by Shauna Hurley, PhD candidate in the School of Public Health at Monash University and Rebecca Ryan, Senior Research Fellow in Health Practice and Management and Head of the Centre for Health Communication and Participation at La Trobe University

There’s a common thread linking our experience of pandemics over the past 700 years. From the black death in the 14th century to COVID in the 21st, public health authorities have put emergency measures such as isolation and quarantine in place to stop infectious diseases spreading.

As we know from COVID, these measures upend lives in an effort to save them. In both the recent and distant past they’ve also given rise to collective unrest, confusion and resistance.

So after all this time, what do we know about the role public health communication plays in helping people understand and adhere to protective measures in a crisis? And more importantly, in an age of misinformation and distrust, how can we improve public health messaging for any future pandemics?

Last year, we published a Cochrane review exploring the global evidence on public health communication during COVID and other infectious disease outbreaks including SARS, MERS, influenza and Ebola. Here’s a snapshot of what we found.

The importance of public trust

A key theme emerging in analysis of the COVID pandemic globally is public trust – or lack thereof – in governments, public institutions and science.

Mounting evidence suggests levels of trust in government were directly proportional to fewer COVID infections and higher vaccination rates across the world. It was a crucial factor in people’s willingness to follow public health directives, and is now a key focus for future pandemic preparedness.

Here in Australia, public trust in governments and health authorities steadily eroded over time.

Initial information from governments and health authorities about the unfolding COVID crisis, personal risk and mandated protective measures was generally clear and consistent across the country. The establishment of the National Cabinet in 2020 signalled a commitment from state, territory and federal governments to consensus-based policy and public health messaging.

During this early phase of relative unity, Australians reported higher levels of belonging and trust in government.

Australia’s pandemic communication got off to a reasonable start. Mick Tsikas/AAP

But as the pandemic wore on, public trust and confidence fell on the back of conflicting state-federal pandemic strategies, blame games and the confusing fragmentation of public health messaging. The divergence between lockdown policies and public health messaging adopted by Victoria and New South Wales is one example, but there are plenty of others.

When state, territory and federal governments have conflicting policies on protective measures, people are easily confused, lose trust and become harder to engage with or persuade. Many tune out from partisan politics. Adherence to mandated public health measures falls.

Our research found clarity and consistency of information were key features of effective public health communication throughout the COVID pandemic.

We also found public health communication is most effective when authorities work in partnership with different target audiences. In Victoria, the case brought against the state government for the snap public housing tower lockdowns is a cautionary tale underscoring how essential considered, tailored and two-way communication is with diverse communities.

Countering misinformation

Misinformation is not a new problem, but has been supercharged by the advent of social media.

The much-touted “miracle” drug ivermectin typifies the extraordinary traction unproven treatments gained locally and globally. Ivermectin is an anti-parasitic drug, lacking evidence for viruses like COVID.

Australia’s drug regulator was forced to ban ivermectin presciptions for anything other than its intended use after a sharp increase in people seeking the drug sparked national shortages. Hospitals also reported patients overdosing on ivermectin and cocktails of COVID “cures” promoted online.

The Lancet Commission on lessons from the COVID pandemic has called for a coordinated international response to countering misinformation.

As part of this, it has called for more accessible, accurate information and investment in scientific literacy to protect against misinformation, including that shared across social media platforms. The World Health Organization is developing resources and recommendations for health authorities to address this “infodemic”.

National efforts to directly tackle misinformation are vital, in combination with concerted efforts to raise health literacy. The Australian Medical Association has called on the federal government to invest in long-term online advertising to counter health misinformation and boost health literacy.

People of all ages need to be equipped to think critically about who and where their health information comes from. With the rise of AI, this is an increasingly urgent priority.

Looking ahead

Australian health ministers recently reaffirmed their commitment to the new Australian Centre for Disease Control (CDC).

From a science communications perspective, the Australian CDC could provide an independent voice of evidence and consensus-based information. This is exactly what’s needed during a pandemic. But full details about the CDC’s funding and remit have been the subject of some conjecture.

Many of our key findings on effective public health communication during COVID are not new or surprising. They reinforce what we know works from previous disease outbreaks across different places and points in time: tailored, timely, clear, consistent and accurate information.

The rapid rise, reach and influence of misinformation and distrust in public authorities bring a new level of complexity to this picture. Countering both must become a central focus of all public health crisis communication, now and in the future.

Drive Away with Ease: Efficient Car Rental Services for All in Seychelles

Seychelles, a dreamy archipelago nation nestled amidst the turquoise waters of the Indian Ocean, beckons travelers with its pristine beaches, vibrant coral reefs, and lush rainforests. Exploring this island paradise at your own pace unlocks a world of hidden coves, secluded beaches, and charming local towns, offering an unparalleled vacation experience. But navigating the idyllic islands can be challenging without a set of wheels. This is where car rental services come in, empowering you to explore Seychelles freely and conveniently.

Why Choose Car Rental Services in Seychelles?

Seychelles boasts a well-developed road network connecting the main islands of Mahé, Praslin, and La Digue. Buses provide a budget-friendly option for getting around, but they operate on limited schedules and may not reach all the hidden gems you desire to discover. Taxis, while readily available, can be expensive for extended journeys. Renting a car offers the perfect solution, granting you:

Unmatched Freedom and Flexibility: Car rental services in Seychelles hand you the keys to explore the islands on your terms. Design your itinerary, discover hidden coves along the way, and linger at picturesque spots for as long as you desire.

Convenience and Time-Saving: With a rental car, you eliminate dependence on public bus schedules or taxi availability. Travel directly to your destination, saving valuable time for sightseeing and relaxation.

Cost-Effectiveness for Groups or Families: For groups or families, car rentals become a cost-effective option compared to multiple taxi fares, especially for longer journeys or day trips to different locations.

Access to Secluded Spots: Public transportation may not reach all the breathtaking beaches, viewpoints, and hiking trails Seychelles offers. A rental car grants access to these hidden gems, enriching your island adventure.

Choosing the Perfect Car Rental Service in Seychelles

With a plethora of car rental services available in Seychelles, selecting the right one can feel overwhelming. Here are some key factors to consider:

Reputation and Reviews: Research reputable car rental companies in Seychelles. Reading online reviews from past customers can offer valuable insights into the company's reliability, vehicle quality, and customer service.

Vehicle Selection: Car rental services in Seychelles offer a diverse fleet ranging from compact hatchbacks ideal for navigating narrow roads to spacious SUVs perfect for families or exploring off-the-beaten-path locations. Choose a vehicle that aligns with your group size, luggage requirements, and planned adventures.

Rental Rates and Inclusions: Compare rental rates across different companies, considering factors like insurance coverage, mileage limitations, and additional fees. Opt for a company that offers transparent pricing and includes essential coverage in the base rate.

Mahé Island: The largest island, Mahé, serves as the Seychelles' heart. Explore Victoria, the capital city, with its vibrant markets and colonial architecture. Visit the Seychelles National Botanical Gardens, unwind on Beau Vallon Beach, or hike to the top of Sans Souci for panoramic views.

Essential Tips for Renting a Car in Seychelles

To ensure a smooth and enjoyable car rental experience in Seychelles, consider these following tips:

Book in Advance: Especially during peak season, popular car rental services in Seychelles can get booked up quickly. Reserve your vehicle well in advance to secure your desired car and avoid disappointment.

Possess a Valid Driver's License: Ensure you hold a valid driver's license from your home country along with an International Driving Permit (IDP) for driving in Seychelles.

Understand Local Traffic Laws: Familiarize yourself with Seychelles' traffic laws, including driving on the left side of the road, speed limits, and designated parking areas.

Be Wary of Road Conditions: While Seychelles boasts a good road network, some roads, especially in remote areas, can be narrow, winding, and uneven. Drive cautiously and adjust your speed accordingly.

Fill Up Before Returning: Most car rental companies require the vehicle to be returned with a full tank of gas. Filling up before returning the car avoids additional charges.

Enjoy the Scenic Drives: Seychelles offers breathtaking coastal roads and scenic mountain passes. Take your time, soak in the stunning landscapes, and pull over at designated viewpoints for captivating photo opportunities.

Its rich history and luxurious products have earned it a cult following among skincare enthusiasts worldwide. The brand's signature product, la mer cream, is a legendary moisturizer that has been praised for its transformative effects on the skin.

A Story Born from the Sea

The story of La Mer began in 1965  when Dr. Max Huber, a scientist, suffered severe burns during a laboratory explosion. Determined to heal his damaged skin, he embarked on a years-long quest to develop a revolutionary skincare product. Inspired by the sea, he experimented with marine-derived ingredients and eventually created a unique formula that transformed his scarred skin. This remarkable concoction, now known as Miracle Broth™, became the cornerstone of La Mer's skincare range.

Crème de la Mer, the brand's flagship product, is a luxurious moisturizer that embodies the essence of La Mer's philosophy. Enriched with Miracle Broth™, this rich cream is designed to deliver intense hydration, soothe irritation, and promote visible signs of renewal. Clinical studies have shown that Crème de la Mer can significantly improve skin texture, firmness, and elasticity, making it a coveted product among those seeking a youthful complexion.

Beyond Crème de la Mer: A Comprehensive Skincare Range

La Mer's skincare collection extends far beyond its iconic moisturizer. The brand offers a wide range of products targeting various skin concerns, including serums, cleansers, eye treatments, and masks. Each product is formulated with Miracle Broth™ and other carefully selected ingredients to deliver optimal results.

A Luxurious Experience
