6 Morning Skincare Steps
If you read the post on my evening skincare routine, this is going to sound familiar. The general logic of how and what I use is the same, but the mornings are a bit lighter on product and somewhat faster. Then again, there is make-up on top of that, so alto..
7 Evening Skincare Steps
In the course of writing this blog, I’ve come to realize that people often struggle not only with which products to use, but also how – with the general logic and order of putting stuff on one’s face. Apologies if this sounds patronising, but as I myself a..
12 (13) Things You Must* Have In Your Office
For obsessive list-makers, September is the best of times. As I said yesterday, this is the month of making plans for a new, improved version of oneself and that of course requires multiple lists. Lists of books to read, films to watch, languages to learn (O..
11 Books Recommended by Krista Kaer
And just like that, Estonian summer is over. It was hot and sunny yesterday; today, it’s raining and it feels like autumn. How fortunate then, that I’ve just received a reading list from Krista Kaer, the book lover extraordinaire. For my non-Estonian readers..

10+ Wonderful-Smelling Shower Gels
My obsessions can be very specific. For example, I don’t own any scented body lotions – except for The Body Shop Italian Fig that I bought by mistake – but I do have extensive experience with scented shower gels. I enjoy that burst of scent you get when usin..
Travel Series Vol 2: The Liquids
This is a sister post to yesterday’s travel make-up one. While I rarely find packing make-up challenging in any way, skincare and perfume can be tricky because of the volume restrictions for air travel. Unless it’s a proper 2-week holiday, I prefer carry-on ..
A Pretty Restrained Travel Make-Up Kit
I was supposed to travel to Riga today, for work, but the said work has gotten so intense that all travel plans have been cancelled. This is sub-optimal, as they say, for several reasons – including the fact that I had in mind at least three travel-related p..
Summer Reading List
As you’re reading this blog, you probably know I like lists and I especially like lists of books. I’m constantly reading reviews and recommendations and listing the books I want to read – on one hand, I enjoy the process, on the other, I also find the lists ..
