Empties │ The products I've used up recently vol. XXXVI [Body & Hair care]
Hello, my lovelies! How is your week so far?
I've been having a weird week, my Spring allergies have begun, I have a cold and my period is about to start, I've been feeling exhausted! I mean not only tired, I think "tired" is the definition of my normality. This week was different, most days I'm struggling to keep my eyes open past noon, it's been horrible and I couldn't get anything done. My list of to do keeps growing! But, As we are on the very last day of February, I thought my post on the products I've used up recently couldn't wait any longer. Today, I'll focus on hair and body care products, I hope you find this one useful.

(Défilez vers le bas pour le Français)
Happy Monday, my lovelies!
We spent a wonderful sunny weekend celebrating the 7th birthday of my boy. I can barely believe he's grown up so much, he's so handsome and tall. It seemed only yesterday I was carrying him in my arms! It was a beautiful weekend and a tiring one too. But the sun is shining, the days are warm, spring is coming, it's time to pull out the bright coloured palettes and the poppy lipsticks!
Today I have a new makeup look to share with you for the Monday Shadow Challenge. This week, we must combine "Electric blue" and "purple" two bright colours to create a bold look. I hope you like it.
Nail Art │ Blue and Plum manicure with Hearts
Hello, my lovelies! Happy Friday!
A great weekend ahead! Today is date night with hubby, we will go out for dinner and then we have tickets for the theatre! YAY!!
Tomorrow we'll host my boy's 7th birthday party, we have 14 guests (children), so, while I'm writing this, the first layer of my cake is in the oven, and the second in the mixer, haha. I hope I won't screw things up, multitasking is really not my thing. If you are curious to see the results, you can check my Instagram Stories here, I'll also put updates of my outfit for tonight and tomorrow's children party.
I really don't have plans for Sunday, other than having a good rest, what about you?
It's time for nail art! Today's "Nail Stamping Sisterhood" challenge is still Love themed, and we ought to create manicures with "Hearts". I'm so over Valentine's day right now, that I thought to do something in totally different colours, so I used a beautiful light blue and a deep plummy purple. I hope you like it!

Hello, my sweeties! Happy Monday?
I'm in such a good mood these days! It must be definitely thanks to the superb sunny weather we are having! It is still quite chilly, but the sky is clear blue which allows us to hope the Spring will not take long to arrive.
Today I have a new makeup look to share with you for the Monday Shadow Challenge. This week, we were supposed to combine "Marsala color" and "red" two of the trendiest colours this winter!! That was the plan, but in the end I changed my mind and ended up using two plum/wine colours for this look. I hope you like it.
Outfit of the day │ Oversized Knitted Scarf
Hello, sweeties! Happy Sunday!
I've been wanting to include some outfits post in my blog for a while, and I finally had the occasion to do so. Last weekend, my hubby and I were invited to the opening of the first boutique of Wildhorn Fine Cosmetics in Crans Montana. My hubby agreed to play the "photographer" role in my fashion shooting! It was fun, I think he did really well! What do you think of his pictures?
We are having such glorious weather these days. The sky has been bright blue and the days warmer since last Monday. But the truth is, winter is not completely over, we are only half way through February and while it can get over 10°C in the afternoons, the mornings can be quite chilly near 0°C. That is why I love styling my outfits with Oversized scarves like the one I'm wearing here! There are a few advantages about getting one of these, want to see?

Makeup │ Trendy look in Mustard Yellow and Green
Hello, my lovelies! How are you today?
I'm very happy these days! There are so many things I'd like to share with you, not enough time! Many cool things are happening that put me in the best mood. The past weekend we were invited by the lovable people of Wildhorn Fine Cosmetics of Switzerland to the opening if their first store, in Crans-Montana. I will be telling you every detail of this event in a later post. But what can I say about Crans, that place is so beautiful! Hubby and I spent the weekend there and had a very relaxing (child-free) time. We also caught the (rare) occasion of stress-free set up to do a small fashion photo shoot for the blog. I've been caressing the idea of including a fashion section -with my own twist, that is- to this blog for far too long. The fact of not having a photographer was a bummer. Then my hubby "voluntarily" (haha, he wishes!) proposed himself as "Instagram husband". LOL It was a bit weird at first, but at the end we really enjoyed it, I must say it exceeded my expectations. I will be sharing those photos with you soon!
As you may have noticed, I haven't posted my makeup look on a Monday, as I usually do. The reason being, this week is "Sportswoche" or "Semaine Blanche" here in Biel, it means children don't have school and I spent the day with them yesterday, no time for editing for this mama. So, I'm posting today, the Monday Shadow Challenge combining "Mustard Yellow" and "Green" two colours that are terribly trendy this season!! I think that my look is quite wearable even though the colours are a bit out of my comfort zone. I hope you like it!

7 Simple Steps for a Young Looking Skin
As we grow older, the first signs of ageing show on our skin. Many people don't really care, but some of us would like our skin to look young for the longest possible. Some people opt for chirurgical means to stay young, or medical treatments as injections. I find those quite drastic and, honestly, of unsure results. I personally believe keeping young-ish looks, after 30, 35 or 40 is possible without those interventions. But "Ageing gracefully", as I call it, definitely requires consistency, as it is not achieved miraculously in a day!
Having beautiful young looking skin requires to introduce a few small changes in your lifestyle, but these are definitely simpler than you think!! Keep reading to find out.

Nail Art │ Dark blue, Copper & White Nail Design [When Colors Collide Challenge]
Hello, sweeties!
How has your weekend been so far? We are spending it indoors, mostly because everyone (except me!) is feeling under the weather, coughing and sneezing. The snowy and rainy weather outside don't call us to do any outdoor activity today, so I'm blogging and cooking while the hubby and the children are binge-playing board games. Not bad for a winter weekend!
Let's talk about nail art now! "When Colors Collide" nail art challenge this week inited us to create manicures in "dark blue, copper and white" and only these colours. I really like the combination between dark blue and copper, I just had to come up with an idea to include white in the mix, so I decided to do an accent nail on my ring finger with a marble design.
