Five beauty products that are actually worth the money

We test slowly and we discard most things. These five survived the year.

1. The cleansing balm

Unperfumed, melts properly, does not sting. The cheapest item on this list.

2. The face oil

Six ingredients. You will use it for two years.

3. The SPF that behaves under makeup

Rare. Worth the search.

4. The hand cream you leave by the sink

Glass jar, no scent, absorbs in seconds.

5. The expensive one

A serum we resisted for a long time and now buy without hesitating. Price is not the point; the reformulated texture is.

A hotel on Mallorca with eleven rooms and no ambition to grow

It has no spa, no restaurant guide entry and no rooftop bar. It has lime-washed walls, a fig tree, and a woman named Nuria who remembers how you take your coffee.
