Empties │ The products I've used up recently vol. XXXV [Skincare & Makeup]
Hello, my lovelies!
January is almost gone and it's time for an "Empties" post!
I haven't shared with you my skincare and makeup "empties" since the beginning of September 2018, so I have lots and lots of products to talk about! However, not to bore you to death, I think I will split it for you and keep it to 9 products this time.
Without further ado, I suggest that we take a closer look at the products I've recently finished up!
Makeup │ Bold Fucshia Lips and Grey Eyeshadow
Hello, my lovelies! Happy Monday!
How was your weekend? We had a wonderful weekend. My hubby and I thought to gather our dearest friends to celebrate our 15 wedding anniversary and the evening was simply charming! Spending time with my favourite people fills my heart with joy.
Today, the Monday Shadow Challenge prompted us to created a look with "Grey" and "Fuchsia" and I used a very bright lipstick. I hope you like it!
Nail Art │ Winter Nail Design with Polar Bear
Hello, my lovelies! Happy Friday!
I hope you had a lovely week. it's being super cold around here these days, so today's "Nail Stamping Sisterhood" challenge is the most appropriate, as the theme is "Arctic"! I've done many manicures with snow this season, so I thought to do something a bit different today. I don't usually do figurative nail art, I stick mostly to abstract shapes and patterns, but this time it seemed a good idea adding a cute polar bear on my nails! I hope you like it.
Makeup │ Soft Grey and Red Lips with Dolce & Gabbana
Hello, lovelies! How are you today?
This year is happening fast-fowards! It seems incredible January is almost over and it is time for me to share with you one more edition of my "shopping my stash" challenge! This monthly challenge that I started back in 2017 still goes strong, especially since this year "low buy", "no buy" and "shop your stash" are incredibly popular trends in social media. I've been using an old quad by Dolce & Gabbana "Fall Harvest", which has a wonderful packaging but the shadows leave me a bit on the fence. Keep reading to find out more about it and to see the look I came up with.
Makeup │ Edgy Look in Lavender and Khaki [Monday Shadow Challenge]
Hello, my lovelies! Happy Monday!
How was your weekend? Ours was pretty quiet, a normal Saturday of chores and I spent a very cold Sunday indoors mainly blogging, preparing new looks to share with you!
Today, for the Monday Shadow Challenge I've created a look with an unusual combination of "Lavender" and "Khaki" and I used a very original lilac lipstick. I hope you like it!
Nail Art │Blue, Pink and Purple Nail design [When Colors Collide Challenge]
How has your week been? mine has been exhausting! Coming back to the routine after 3 weeks vacation has been so hard. Especially restarting my gym workout which has left me with sore muscles and aches for days. Other than that I've been procrastinating ironing the 6 loads of laundry I did on Monday, lol. So this evening I'd probably catch up with that while watching some TV, yay exciting plan for a Friday evening! LOL
Let's talk about nail art now! "When Colors Collide" nail art challenge this week prompted us to create manicures in "blue, pink and purple" and only these colours. As I'm already longing for Spring, I came up with a pretty soft design and I hope you like it!
Preview │OPI Launches Tokyo Collection for Spring-Summer 2019
Hello, sweeties! How are you today? I'm super excited because I have super good news for all the nail polish lovers! OPI will soon be launching the Tokyo Collection for Spring / Summer 2019 in Switzerland!! The colours are sooooo pretty! Take a look at this preview.
See the swatches and review here.
Makeup │ Smokey blue eyes and pink lips [Monday Shadow Challenge]
Hello, sweeties! Happy Monday!
I hope your week started fabuloustically! As you know we got back home from Argentina on Friday and have struggled most of the weekend with painful jetlag. But today, everything got back in track, children woke up in time for school/daycare, hubby got all school bags and sports bags ready, I made breakfast on time too! haha, it's crazy how going back to the little things can be reassuring for the kids (and the adults ;) too). I also got back to the routine, which meant workout, laundry, tidying up the house, but I also got to create a makeup look for today's Monday Shadow Challenge!
Today's look is about combining "midnight Blue" and "Silver" and I came up with a coloured smokey eye with a twist. I hope you like it.
Nail Art │ Winter Floral Manicure
Hello, my lovelies! Happy weekend!
I am finally home! I arrived yesterday from Argentina and had planned to post here, but I couldn't because I was terribly jetlagged. It was awful! We had our flight at noon on Thursday and flew for 14 hours arriving in Zurich on Friday morning. But in order to be on time at the airport, the driver thought it was a good idea to depart from home at 4am on Thursday. Meaning we had to get up at 3 am, which actually meant that I caught less than 3 hours sleep, of course. Little I knew those three hours of sleep on Wednesday, would be last sleep I'd get until arriving home on Friday.
Needless to say, we were exhausted! Still trying to fix our body sleeping and eating rythms today.
Luckily I had one more manicure ready to share with you! This time it is not about a Nail art challenge, but the manicure I wore during my two first weeks in Argentina. I chose to create something that would be appropriate for winter and also summer, so I came up with a floral look. I hope you like it!
Makeup │ Golden Shock look with Dior
Hello, lovelies! Happy Monday!
How was your first week of the year 2019? While most people are already working on their resolutions, new lifestyles, diets and working out programs... I'm still on vacation! Oops!⠀
I really needed this family overload time (that in my country comes also together with a food overload, lol!) in the past two weeks we have had dinner parties, pizza parties, BBQ parties, poolside parties and all kind of parties which involved much chatting, laughs, hugs, children running and shouting, and much eating, hahaha, it's always about the food, right?⠀
December went too fast for me to be able to share with you the last edition of my "shopping my stash" challenge in 2018. So technically this post still belongs to last year's challenge. I've been using my old and beautiful Dior "Golden shock #756", a quint with very chic mauve and plums and a touch of gold.
Nail Art │ Silver Snowflakes Winter Manicure
Hello, my lovelies! Happy Friday!
I am still in Argentina, spending time with the family and friends, enjoying the summer weather (when it's not too suffocatingly hot) and basically eating all the food, LOL.
Today the "Nail Stamping Sisterhood" Facebook Group proposed us to create a manicure with "Snowflakes" theme, which pairs with the winter in the North but not so much with the current high temperatures in Argentina! I hope you will like my manicure :)
