Skin care │ 7 Things Girls with Good Skin Never Forget to Do Before Bedtime
We all have that friend with baby-soft, smooth skin that we admire/want to murder in her sleep. She’s the one who walks into a room without a trace of makeup on, her face glowing, while you sit there with caked on foundation, grumbling about how unfair the world is.

Makeup │ Keeping things real. Bright yellow and chocolate brown look [Monday Shadow Challenge]
Hello, sweeties! Happy gloomy Monday!
Hey, it had to be, as it is our first school-break Monday and the weather is actually not summery at all. So today I'll need extra imagination to keep my children entertained ;)
How was your weekend? Yesterday was 201 Argentina's Indepence Anniversary, so I prepared an Argentinian speciality, you can check the recipe on my Instagram Stories (or on my Facebook page). My weekend was pretty busy, with household chores and cooking. Fortunately, the husband got the children out for a while so I could do my makeup for today. However, the pictures are a little darker than usual, as you know I only shoot on natural light and it was pretty overcast!
Today's makeup look for the Monday Shadow Challenge combines "bright yellow and chocolate brown". Let me show you how it turned out :)

Skincare │ My four favourite anti-ageing face masks for firmer and toned skin [Review]
Hello, beauties! Happy Hump-day!
Facial masks are the best way to treat your skin's specific problems without breaking the bank. I'd sure love some weekly face spa sessions or beauty institute facial treatment, but that's just so out of my budget, especially in Switzerland (insert flying dollars emojis). Of course, as a resourceful woman and a beauty blogger I have come up with quite a specific and intensive care to treat my ageing-saggy-doublechinned-butstillkindapretty face. I am going to introduce you to my four favourite anti-ageing masks of the moment.
If you are over 30, you notice your skin starts lacking firmness, you notice saggy areas or loss of definition around your chin, or early wrinkles getting deeper, then keep reading because this post will interest you!

Makeup │Summer look in pastel green and plum [Monday Shadow Challenge]
Hello, sweeties! How are you today?
We had an absolutely wonderful weekend, I ended up super tired, and today was very hard to get up, but we enjoyed so much! I didn't have enough time to prepare today's makeup look for the Monday Shadow Challenge the prompt this week was to combine "Pastel green and Plum"." I did my makeup in a rush Sunday afternoon, right before leaving with the kids for a last ride at the Biel's Braderie (check my Instagram to see that!), so it is what it is, LOL.
