August Empties







Bioderma Créaline H2O x2


Very practical on the go, however I wish to try something else on an everyday basis...


Verdict: Love it!










Le Petit Marseillais Fig and Shea Butter Body Lotion




Whilst the texture is very light and perfect for summertime, I absolutely loathed its smell: it just smells like chemical/alcohol to me...


Verdict: Leave it! Because of the smell and the parabens.










Cottage Mint & Strawberry Shower Gel


Enjoy the smell and texture, but again, I wish to try something different for a change!


Verdict: Love it!










Yes To Carrots Daily Pampering Shower Gel


To be honest, I couldn't wait for this product to be OVER! I couldn't bear its scent: it was so heady that I ended up only using it to shave my legs... Plus, this is a breaking-neck hazard in the shower: this texture is slippery like hell!


Verdict: Leave it!

6 MAC Pans: Build a Starter Z Palette Quad



Curious to know what I brought during my holidays? I made up a custom Z Palette (as usual) and I'm proud to say I used a bit of everything and created different looks, from nude to smoky eyes.

MAC Era (Satin: Lid, Crease)



MAC Patina (Frost: Lid)

For eyeshadows, whether you prefer neutrals or colours, I would advise you to choose a variety of tones (light to dark) and finishes (matte to shimmer). For instance, you may include the following: highlight flesh colour; light to medium colour; medium colour; dark colour.





As for blush, choose your favourite versatile one, which compliments any look!





Of course, don't forget I'm only showing you my choices for reference; you need to adapt it according to your tastes and colouring.
