LET THE SUNSHINE IN

Posted on

Autumn/Winter is here.
Don’t know how you feel about this particular seasons.
I love them.
Summer is great, I love holidays, I love sunbathing.
But, to me, nothing beats having a scarf around your neck, drinking hot chocolate and reading in front of the fireplace.
Back to the post, these two Benefit’s products help me to take some light in the dark weather.

SUNDAY, AGAIN. WEEKLY PICK vol. II

Posted on

My hate for Sundays is getting worse every week.

This week has been quite tough, university is starting to require more time and attention.
In this  post I’m going to show you my latest desires.

I already own Chanel Illusion d’Ombre in Epatant and I really like it, I’d love to try the other shades.
Too bad they’re soo expensive!

CHANEL LES 4 OMBRES- GOLDEN EYES

Posted on

You’ve already read my bla bla bla about how much I love Chanel’s products/packaging.
I feel the very same way about this quad.
But first, here’s what Chanel says about their quad:


“One essential compact offers unlimited eye looks, with shade combinations that range from matte to satin to shimmer. Versatile smudge-proof formula can be applied dry for subtle shading, or dampened for more intense colour, all with long-wearing results — in even extreme climates. Dermatologist tested.”

MAKE UP MEMORIES

Posted on

When I was a teenager, young, shy and without any kind of self confidence…
Ok let’s write this again.
When I was 14, six whole years ago!, I just didn’t like myself.
Don’t get me wrong, I’m not madly in love with the way I look now.
But years, experiences and a couple of special words helped me to appreciate what I have.
Make up, while not being the most important thing in my life, helps me accept my appearance, highlighting my best features and hiding my flaws.

COLLEGE. YES, IT’S HAPPENING. Two of a kind vol I

Posted on

L. and I finally started college.
Sadly, we’re not attending the same course, so we can’t see each other every day.
And, even worse, we had to face a first-day-of-school by ourselves.
In this post I’m going to tell you how my first day was and L. is going to do the same very soon.
We’re starting a new series, along with the Weekly Pick! one, in which we’ll talk about the same subject with our different point of views.
Anyway.
The day before my BIG DAY I was a wreck.
In my mind I had huuuge confusion.

What to wear?
Will I make new friends?
Will I find my way in the various classes without getting lost?
Will I like every course I have?
Will I make myself ridiculous in front of everyone, spilling my coffee on my books?
Should I wear lipstick?

LAZY SUNDAY- Weekly pick vol. I

Posted on

I don’t really like this particular day of the week.

I just can’t manage to do all the things I’d like to and I usually end up reading and sleeping
Anyway, today I spent some time on the web, browsing various websites.
And here’s the result of those hours, a pointless post.
I’m going to show you what I’d like to buy this winter, things that I’ve been wanting for ages and things that I’ve just found.

Enjoy!

MAKE UP AND TRAVELING III

Posted on

When traveling, I used to end up with a ridiculous amount of make-up in my hand luggage and I never used even half of it.

In the last year or so, I’ve started to bring with me beauty kits and my foundation.
This way, I end up with a ridiculous amount of beauty kits.
I’m such a mess.
Anyway, today I’m going to tell you everything about my favorite one.
 
Her name was Glowla is The perfect kit.
It was one of my brother’s numerous  gift (I have the PERFECT brother, I know)
First of all, the name.
It obviously reminds me of The Kink’s great song, Lola:

GOOD GIRL&BAD GIRL

Posted on

I’d love to be a bad girl.

Actually I’m not a good girl, either.
I’m something in between.
Anyway, around Christmas, I found at my Sephora my two first Sleek’s palette: Good Girl and Bad Girl.

So far, I basically haven’t touched the GG but I’ve used a lot the BG one.

I just don’t know how to use all those red and pink on my eyes, I need your advice!

Another great gift I received this month was a selection of the MAC Me Over! LE, gifted by D.

He gave me a few great products, just the one I would’ve bought for myself.
