Polished Polyglot

Hello, Lovelies! Happy Monday!
Today I want to talk to you about 5 Drugstore Lipsticks that I've been obsessing about! Oh yes, I love me some fancy high-end makeup now and then, but in total honesty, so many drugstore brands carry really good lipsticks that have nothing to envy to the luxury ones. But yes, drugstore ranges are not always consistent, and some brands are a bit of hit and miss, so it takes a lot of try and error to find THE ONE. So, here I am doing the job for you! I introduce to you 5 really amazing options to have your lips on-point without breaking the bank! I'll talk about the brands H&M, Essence Cosmetics, Gosh Copenaghen, Maybelline New York and Cover Girl!
Let's take a look.

Hello, sweeties! Only a few days to the end of 2018 and it seems a good moment to look back and recap. I have already shown you and talk to you about the 10 skincare products that rocked my world this year, you can check that here. I have also discovered and used a few wonderful items this 2018 that I am absolutely OBSESSED about! Keep reading to find out which my favourites are :)

Hello, sweeties!
It's high time to recap September and share with you some products I've been obsessing with the whole month. I made an effort to shorten my list as much as possible, so I decided to leave out some products that I will be sharing with you on an empties post and also I decided to leave out clothing and shoes which I will either show you on Instagram stories or never, because I don't think I'll be ever doing a fashion post, lol!
Well, let's take a look back into September, shall we?

Hello, lovelies!
How are you today? It's time to chat about skincare!
You know how popular is Korean skincare and the trend doesn't seem to fade. I personally have made amazing discoveries among the Korean brands, of ingredients and products that are new to me. As usual, my trustworthy place for shopping for Korean brands and products is the specialized boutiques in Switzerland BoOonBox, where I decided to pick this Benton Snail Bee High Content Essence. Keep reading to find out more!

Hello, sweeties! Are you enjoying your long weekend?
Today I am posting a little later than usual, I haven't had time to prepare this makeup in advance so I just finished doing my makeup and taking the pictures. This time the challenge is to combine Anthracite and gold for the Monday Shadow Challenge. I hope you like it!

Hello, sweeties! How are you?
I can't begin to tell you how hard was getting back to the regular routine this morning after 4 wonderful long-weekend days spent in Italy. As I write my girl is yelling (instead of napping) because I am actually doing something else than being with her, great... so easy to explain to a two-year-old that mommy would like to write a blog post and why that's "important" right? Well, it is not, of course, or is it?
I came back home from this short vacation with a broken toe. It happened on Saturday morning and I know it's actually broken (even if I haven't been yet able to get myself to the hospital for a check), I know so because my foot is swollen, my toe and the surrounding area is blue slightly turning to black, and I would rather crush my face on the floor than walking -as it is so painful. But I've been trying hard to smile and go on with the vacation as planned. Family life doesn't seem to allow me any moment to take care of my injured foot until tomorrow.
Anyways, I had prepared a makeup look for today long ago and I wanted to share it with you, just because I really need a lift up and blogging about makeup does it for me. This time the challenge is to combine Pastel yellow and lilac for the Monday Shadow Challenge. I hope you like it!

Hello, sweeties! Have you had a nice weekend?
We had a harsh time the past two days as my daughter and I have been sick and I was so tired I slept most of my Sunday afternoon. Honestly, I can't wait for our next vacation, LOL!
Today, I'm showing you a makeup combining emerald green and silver for the Monday Shadow Challenge. I hope you like it!

Hello, sweeties! How are you today?
As every Monday for the past year, today I have a makeup look to share with you! The Monday Shadow Challenge proposed us to combine Lime green & Purple, a crazy and unusual combo, I must admit. I could only imagine creating a crazy look with some 80's vibe. I hope you like it!

Hello, sweeties! It's been ages since I shared with you the products I've used up. I've cumulated a HUGE amount of empty bottles, but I have decided to leave out all the products that have already been featured in past editions of "the empties" posts and I split the rest into two groups. This time I'm going to talk about the skincare and makeup products and I will address the body and hair products in a future post.
So let's get to it!

Hello, lovelies! Happy International Labor day!
Today is a non-working holiday in many countries, but the Monday Shadow Challenge doesn't take the day off! This weekly makeup challenge is taking a new turn, from now on, instead of focusing on one color for creating our makeups, we will be using a set of two colors we ought to include in our looks. The challenge becomes more interesting and difficult from now on!
For the first duo of colors, Séverine has chosen "Black and white". Let's see what I came up with!

Hello Sweeties!! Happy Friday!
