GLOSSARY ENTRY (DERIVED FROM QUESTION BELOW)
English term or phrase: "Tender loving care" French translation: Rien de tel que... pour se sentir choyé Entered by: Sophie Raimondo

English to French translations [PRO] Marketing - Cosmetics, Beauty / Ad for toilet paper
English term or phrase: "Tender loving care" The expression is used twice in the ad: first in the title, ie. A LITTLE TLC FOR YOU then in the body copy, ie « Nothing says "tender loving care" like the soft treasures you can enjoy in your own home. The ad shows a plush bathrobe, thick towels, etc. How should I translate TLC/tender loving care? I would like to use something else than « soins attentionnés.

Sylvie Nault Canada ASKER ...aux petits oignons 13:11 Sep 12, 2007  En québécois, l'expression équivalente à TLC serait « (traité) aux petits oignons, mais dans le contexte d'une annonce pour papier hygiénique... Donc pour le titre « A LITTLE TLC FOR YOU », à cause des visuels de serviettes et de draps luxueux, j'ai traduit par: CONFORT ET BIEN-ÊTRE....JUSTE POUR VOUS Automatic update in 00:
