A typical New Yorker morning would be to head to Starbucks or Dean and Deluca for a coffee and a pastry.

If I remember correctly, the hot…

When TSS visited Paris back in March, we knew that la pharmacie was the place to go for beauty products. Oh and we did visit Yves Rocher as well. Who could resist their fruity scents? But back to the pharmacy. One of the most popular brands we couldn’t get enough of was Nuxe in Rêve de Miel. Our favorite product was the Nuxe Huile Prodigiuese. It’s a plant-based and…
