TagSeptember Memo: Hemingway, L’Oreal Mascara and Tom Hiddleston
And the holidays are over, just like that. Generally, I tend to be excited for autumn and I am this year as well, but I feel that the 12-day vacation was simply too short. Whining about it does not help, however, so let’s focus on things I’m looking forward ..
Cheap Face: The Makeup Edition
I know I’m not great at „beauty on the budget“ advice, as I usually use pretty pricey products myself and I’m not a professional blogger who tries and assesses everything on the market. This does not mean that I think expensive stuff is always better: there ..
Excellent Moisturisers: Going High, Going Low
Remember when skincare used to be all about creams? These days are gone. Now, we focus on serums and oils and layering and the good old moisturising cream has been humbled. Most people still need a day cream, however (it’s easier to get by with an oil or bal..

L’Oreal Nude Magique (or True Match Lumi?) Cushion Foundation
Good things come to those who look in strange places. Unless you are obsessed with make-up, you probably don’t know who Jaclyn Hill is. And even if you were obsessed with make-up, you’d possibly find following her a bit tiring, as she is very intense and can..
Return of the Gloss
Now, let’s make one thing clear: I had the idea for this post long before Lisa Eldridge published her take on the new glosses. I did! Honest! But I had to postpone it because of the stupid Chanel: I was waiting for their new lipsticks to reach Belgium and it..
6 (OK, 8) Favourite Foundations for Autumn
Considering my flighty nature, I used to be surprisingly loyal to my foundation favourites: I mostly wore the beautifully dewy YSL Le Teint Touche Eclat, occasionally switching to Chanel Vitalumiere Aqua and Laura Mercier’s classic tinted moisturizer. But th..
