Colour on My Nails

Image
Here I will give you some suggestions on wonderful colours from different brands and also for diverse budgets. I will try to provide one example for each colour... Let us start with Green  Green (vert agave) is one of the best colours that Yves Rocher has. It is a very particular green, the type that you find in the forest, the type that is a bit pastel but still lively.  I have almost finished this one, I used it too much!  A nice Nudish Brown  I have to say that this one is also from Yves Rocher . I had used this colour a lot, too. I personally like it a lot. It is not as competitive as the Vert Agave but still quite good as a colour. It is a capuccino brown, something more like muddy but light brown. Hard to describe. It is definitely lighter than the photo you see below.  The third one is a pinkish purple one again from Yves Rocher . It is called Rose Hortensia (see it above). This colour really goes well with the lipstick Mauve from Kiko for instance. It is not a very interesting

My favourite brushes for daily use

Well, I know what you will say if I say "I do not wear makeup every day". I really do not. Especially in November, I feel too depressed to wear makeup. But when I do, I have three to four brushes that I use and will introduce them to you now with great pleasure, cause they are good to me and I am good to them (I did not mean to personify them this much, nothing is more important than trees, animals and persons). Okay having said that let us start with the fact that I have a leaning towards KIKO brushes, yes, they are good, yes, they are professional, and yes they do look aesthetic. I have three brushes from KIKO, and then one from Bodyshop, and one from Bellàpiere. Then there is another one Kabuki teint 47, but do not remember when and how I got that one. Maybe it was a present. Let's shoot. The best and the most practical eye shadow brush ever, one brush but have two functions: to spread and to specify. You shoot two birds with one stone (and hope you never do that)

How to organise the nail polish in Marie Kondo style

Image
As we all know Marie Kondo did it and we loved her ! She organised everything so well. She was the middle child and was kind of on her own most of the time. So she started organising her room, then her friends' room and now she is organising the world. One of her tips is that you bring everything that you have from one category together: all clothes, all books, all cosmetics for instance. So before the organisation, there is some chaos... I have taken all my nail polishes and organised them. I will show this procedure to you via photos... and if you would like I can also share the colours of the products and how they look on my hands. My hands are not the most beautiful but you will have to bear with me! So the first situation is as such. I am alone with all the nail polish that I will never be able to finish all my life. Longing for the fact that my sister would be with me, to finish things would have been easier. Well, that is just a detail before I tell you how disorgan

LIPSTICKS: WHO DOES NOT LOVE TO HAVE A GOOD LIPSTICK?

Image
This boom with cosmetics in the last years is incredible. So many brands, so many colours, so many artificial products and so many novelties! But how will we know which lipstick is the best one? There are three questions when it comes to lipsticks: 1)    Do they suit you (colour wise)? 2)    Will you ever find the perfect colour? 3)    Which are my favourite(s)? So basically, I have three main questions to answer very shortly. But then I will tell you a summary of my experiences about the lipsticks, brands, textures, pigments, colours… will share you a great variety of them from each brand. The colour range is from red to orange, from orange to pink and purple. But there are a few nude colours which are closer to brown as well. Never liked brown as a lipstick but maybe till I find the right colour I should just shut up. Let’s start with the first question. Does every lipstick suit everyone? It is not possible. I will give some suggestion
