7 New Cleansers
Sometimes, the workings of my brain really do make me worry. I am highly analytical by nature: I can dissect the imbalances in my wardrobe down to the tiniest details and have got my skincare routines down to a science. And yet, I recently discovered that wh..
6+ Favourite Skin Extras
If you’ve been here before, you are already intimately familiar with my morning and evening skincare steps and most of the time, that’s all I do to my skin. Well, many people would say that’s plenty (and I agree), but what I mean is that unless I’m having a ..
Caudalie Make-Up Removing Cleansing Oil
I don’t often do one product reviews, as it’s not the most exciting of genres, plus I usually don’t test things systematically enough to talk about them in depth. But occasionally, I do get sufficiently excited about something and this has recently happened ..
Cool Girl Beauty
I have no first-hand knowledge of this topic, as I’m way too enthusiastic to be a cool girl. But I have enough experience observing cool girls in their natural habitats (by which I mean Paris and Instagram) that I feel like I can make educated guesses about ..

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..
7 Nordic Beauty Brands
I’ve wanted to do a post about Nordic (note that my use of the word “Nordic” is quite loose, including also the Baltics) skincare since I started the blog, but felt that I hadn’t done enough research and testing. I still haven’t done enough and the selection..
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 ..
