DAY9 – L’OCCITANE Reine Blanche Illuminating Toner
Reine Blanche, one of the collections by L’OCCITANE, is not sold in the U.S. which is why I was thrilled to learn about the product when I came back to Japan after years living in the U.S. In Japan, one of the important aspects many Japanese women pay attention to in skin care is the “illuminating” or “whitening” of their skin, while in the U.S. having whiter skin is not something respected so much, although supple and even-tone skin can be considered good. The concept of having healthy skin seems to be different in Japan and U.S., which has been one of the topics I have been interested in digging into.
Anyway, Reine Blanche, which claims to illuminate skin is not sold in the U.S. maybe due to the reason above. So I got today’s source text from L’OCCITANE Malaysia’s website!
