Makeup │ Fresh Spring look in Green and Pink
Apr 29, 2019
(Défilez vers le bas pour le Français)
Happy Monday, sweeties!
We are having a lovely Spring so far, typical rainy weather in the past few days, but nothing we wouldn't know about April already. We're expecting some sunny days towards the end of the week, and this is energizing me.
In total honesty, I'm glad we're having some rain, because this gives me a break with allergies, when the weather is wet, pollen does not fly around and I feel much much better! Does this happen to you too?
It's time for a makeup challenge! The Monday Shadow Challenge thought Green and pink would be a nice combination for spring and, in my opinion, they had that right! I love green and pink as they create a lovely soft, luminous and fresh look! take a look!

Happy Monday, sweeties!
I'm back! Last week I decided to take a break from blogging, I think I was having a "blogging burnout" :O !!!
I've been sleeping very little in the past few weeks, my average sleep was around 4:30 hours per night, including weekends of course. I started feeling terribly fatigued and decided to put the blog in pause and take more care of myself. In fact, I usually work late hours for the blog, when the children are already in bed, that's a time I'm not sleeping! I decided to tweak a couple of things in my routine. also, I wasn't feeling the urge of posting and sharing as I usually do, despite of having a lot of new products to test and stories to share... I took that as a sign and decided to slow down.
I spent a gorgeous sunny long weekend for Easter, with the family, my children are a great source of energy for me. I also spent a fair time working out and planning my meals in a healthier more nutritious way for me (I'm trying to lose some weight but without losing muscle and It's not as easy as it sounds!!). So, what has been keeping you busy lately?
Now, let's get into makeup! It's time for a new Monday Shadow Challenge,"this week the challenge is a bit special because it's all about "PINK"! Yes, that's right! Two or more shades of pink combined in one same look. I thought this could be a good idea for a look a bit modern and also Kawai, I hope you will like my makeup :)
Makeup │ Indigo and Dusty Rose

Hello, sweeties! Did you miss me yesterday?
I haven't posted on a Monday for the first time in YEARS! Our Autumn-school-break just started and I guess it was kind of a disorganized day for this mama, so there was no post, oops!
But, you are not getting rid of me that easily, and today I'm here to catch up! Yes, although it's a bit weird to call this post "Monday... anything", for obvious reasons, this is my makeup challenge of the week for the "Monday Shadow Challenge". We were asked to create a look using "Indigo" and "Dusty rose", two lovely colours for makeup in my opinion! This is what I came up with, I hope you like it!

Makeup │ Teal and Purple look for the Sign of Aries [Zodiac Makeup Challenge]
Mar 22, 2018
Hello, my lovelies!
How has Spring started for you? Do you have any plans for this season? Maybe a trip somewhere? I don't know about you, but mid-March sounds a lot more encouraging to me to make resolutions than January, that ever since I live in the northern hemisphere. Personally, I'm more motivated to get fit now than I was in January, lol. I am only hoping for warmer days, it is still very cold around here! We've already booked a family trip for our Spring break, we'll spend a few days in Barcelona. I'm soooo looking forward to it! My last trip to the beautiful Spanish city was in 2002, I don't even know what to expect or what to do? I'll need some planning for this trip... Don't hesitate to leave me a comment if you have some suggestions!
Now, into makeup! Well, if you've been following me lately, you know I'm showing more love to the makeup I own instead of buying new and I challenged myself to create twelve different looks with the BHCosmetics Zodiac palette, one for each sign. Today I focus on "Aries" sign and here is my look, I hope you like it!
Makeup │Soft look for Fall in pale rose and yellow [Monday Shadow Challenge]
Sep 12, 2017
Hello, beauties!
I'm one day late for the Monday Shadow Challenge, on Saturday our wireless router broke, so I only had the minimum Internet availability until today. Things that happen!
The"Monday Shadow Challenge" is always trying to make us think out of the box and today challenge is to create an Autumn look using "pale rose and sunflower yellow". I must admit it was difficult to find an idea but in the end I really loved this combo!

Hello Sweeties! Bonjour! How are you ?
It is unusual of me to be writing on a Saturday and even more to be showing a makeup look that should have gone live for the Monday Shadow Challenge two weeks ago! But I had done this makeup in Dusty Rose shade, I thought it was a very "me" look and I wanted to share it with you anyway.

Hello, sweeties! Today is my little princess first birthday :) I can barely believe it's been already one year since she came to our lives, and to see her pics from one year ago, and see how much she's changed and grow, just melts my heart with joy. We will be throwing a family party on Sunday in her honor, I'm already busy in preparation of the event so the blogging scheduled was a bit disturbed for the beginning of the week.
Let's keep things going with the blogging: today I have a new manicure to show you, it's a floral nail art using nail water decals with flower pattern from Born pretty store.

Nov 13, 2013
Hello lovelies! How are you today?
This is day 23 of the 33 Days Challenge and the prompt for today is Geometric!
I didn't have much time when I did this manicure, so I went for a simple stamping design, nothing sophisticated I know, but I like the global effect on the nails. Simple but effective :)

Today is day 21 for the 33 Days Challenge and the prompt is Europe.

Catrice Arts Collection LE Baroque Eye & face palette - Swatches & review
Oct 17, 2013
Hello my lovelies! How are you today? I'm very excited because I've been waiting impatiently for this new Catrice Limited edition to be available since I first saw the promo pictures. Catrice The Arts collection is inspired by three different artistic movements: Art Nouveau, Baroque and Art deco, all very rich in colour and details. The Collection consists on three eyes and face palettes and three coordinated nail polishes. You can see all the items of the collection collection here.
Unlike last year, when I picked the 3 palettes of Big city life collection, this year I couldn't justify owning more bronze and gunmetal eyeshades, or yet another gold nail polish. So the Art Déco palette and polish were out of the question. I'm still hhesitant whether I should pick the Art Nouveau set, or maybe just the polish. Finally, I only bought one the Baroque palette and nail polish which I'll be showing you today.
Vintage Challenge Favourite Golden Oldie: Dior N°555 Euphoric pink
Jul 20, 2013
Hello my lovelies! How is your weekend going so far? I'm preparing the last things for our vacation. We're leaving tonight for the sunny Italy!! wiiiiiiiiiii! Ciao bella vita, waking up with the yummy smell of Italian coffee, walking by the Mediterranean sea eating home made ice cream! Quanto mi sei mancata bella Italia! It's been two years since we've been there. We will stay in my father in law's house, and we'll get the chance to visit all the relatives there, eating delicious food and freshly fished seafood, doing some shopping, and of course having fun at the beach with our baby! First time for him to see the sea!
But enough of daydreaming, is now time for The Vintage Challenge! And today it's the turn of the "Golden oldie". I supposed that means one "All time favourite", but I'm afraid I've already shown you those elsewhere. Instead I have a really rare nail polish to share with you. This is Dior Vernis 555 Euphoric pink, which I bought in December 2005 and I have no idea of when it was released, but it's obviously no more available.
All time Favourite: Chanel Confidentiel
Nov 11, 2012
Hello my dears, enjoying the weekend until the very last second? You should!
Today I have for you a beloved colour of mine, Chanel 491 Rose Confidentiel. Please, trust me, this is not your grandma's rose! I absolutely adore this shade, which applies like a creme and has a gorgeous glossy jelly-ish finish. It's been long time since I last wore this shade and I was "missing" it.
What are your thoughts? Rare beauty or meh?
Love,
