Make up of the day

Hey everyone :) 


Today I am doing a post about my make up of the day, I apologise for the bad quality pictures but it will change very soon as I said last week lol. 
Well, this is a make up that I did with the Naked Palette from Urban Decay. It's a bit darker in real, I first applied " Sidecar " in inner corner of the eyes and then did a base with a black pencil on half of the mobile lid. 
I used " Creep " on top of the black base and on the other half of the lid I used " Buck ". 
On the crease I applied " Darkhorse" " Smog " and " Half backed " to give a little shimmery finish. 
Under the waterline I applied " Darkhorse and Smog ". Then I applied my eyeliener  and my mascara . 













Thank you so much for having look at my blog :) Don't hesitate to comment <3

Nightly care routine for dry skin .

                                           ( Some products are French but you can easily find them )

Putting make up on is a thing that some girls like to do because they feel more confident, more beautiful or just simply because it is their passion and they actually do art things on their faces :) But when it's night time, we are lazy after a day of work or school, too tired to take all this out to go to sleep we just want to jump in bed and fall asleep !!!
If you want a nice and healthy skin even later you have to take the make up off before bed, it's a very important step of the beauty and make up side.  So here is my nightly care routine for the ones who don't know how to do, what products to use, or want to try new products or just curious :)


To start I always brush my teeth first because then if I have some toothpaste on the corner of you mouth ( glamourous I know lol ) it will leave with the cleaning face part.
I use Teraxyl Oxywhite but I guess it's not the most important.



First, I use two different make up removers : - one for my eyes that removes all waterproof  eye make up.
                                                                    - the other is to take all the foundation and powder off on my face.





After the make up removing , I soak my face and use The " Perfect Clean " from L'Oréal Paris it cleans and it does make your skin smoother. It comes with a little soft plastic kind of brush, you put the cleansing cream on and then rub it onto your face then rinse it and dry it gently.





Second I use the " Neutrogena Blackhead remover ", it's a cleansing scrub that you rub onto your face in the places you have the most blackheads but you can use on all your face for a better clean result.





Then to make my skin so soft ( it really does work if you want a baby face skin ) I use the Soap&Glory " Face Soap Clarity " rub it onto your face and you will feel teh texture is a bit thick and really soft, it's really a good moment to use it :)




After, I use a lip scrub from Lush, it's really good, I have teh green one I bought on sale because it's really expernsive I wanted to try it but not for the full price so I had a go at this one and I really like it. I'd love to try the bubble gum one but for now this is crazy, it's a mix with lots of sour sweets and oil and when you put it on your lips and rub it little bits go in yoru sink it's like mini bombs lol. It goes crazy but it leaves your lips really soft and no dead skin on :)  a bit of li balm after and then ready for kissing héhé !




And to finish this routine, I use a calendula cream because I have extremely dry skin, so it makes my skin really shiny but oh well I am just going to sleep so it doesn't really matter and it makes my skin happy and really soft :)







I hope you all enjoyed it and let me know what is yours :) Good night <3

How to fight a depressing day ... without spending money or put weight on ;)

So, it's Friday, my boyfriend left yesterday and I am not going to see him for a few months :( which means I am in a depressed mood today, I don't want to get off bed. 
What makes girls happy? Shopping, food, chocolate... But I have a better idea to cheer me up a little bit and I won't spend money or put weight on lol! 
I am going to do a girly day, the goal is to do everything a girl likes to do at home ! 




    First of all, I will start with a little bit of exercise, yesterday I bought Zumba fitness for wii so that should keep me busy for a moment. 




 Second, I will go for a shower or even a nice bath using my Soap&Glory " Calm One Calm All " take care of my skin and do a nice body scrub and a nice organic hair mask  and then at the end I will body butter all my body, it needs it !  




Third, I will clean my face and do some organic masks to keep it healthy.



Then I will do my nails using my new Kiko nail polishes ( I will do a review on them later ).



And I think it will be time for me to cook for everyone tonight , ( I love cooking ) ! 






That's how I fight a depressed day, it's ideal to do with your friends when somoene needs comfort or just as a simple girly night ! I love it and it keeps us busy :)

Kim Kardashian

Some people hate Kim Kardashian because they judge or they are jealous or I don't know what they will create but one thing is sure it's that she is probably my favourite Fasion Icon. I love her hair, her clothes, her make up. Even when she simply goes out with nothing on her face she looks good, you will tell me it's because she had many surgery interventions haha but apart from that she wears everything good. I love how everything she wears look good, I am never deceived about her outfits because it's so worked but at the same time it's not too much, it's not too Lady gaga but it's still Fashion and in. Here are some pictures :

Barry M nail polishes

Hey everyone!

I am going to do a review on my new nail polishes that I bought in Boots. 
They're from the brand Barry M, I am not a crazy fan of nail polishes so I didn't want to put loads of money in them. I found this brand and I thought I would give it a try because even though I am not a superfan I like nice nails and beautiful colours. It's been a long time since I wanted a navy blue dark blue kind of  and a grey one aswell. And it happened that if I bought 2 Barry M nail polishes I got 1 free in a limited edition so I though BINGO !! I found the two colours I wanted for £ 2,99 each I think. So for £5 I leave with 3 of them I thought that was a bargain :) 













The first one is called Mushroom, it's a middle grey not too dark not too light




The second is called Silver Glitter, the limited edition one.




The third is Navy, a beautiful dark blue. 







It's a really good quality for the price I think, for me who doesn't want to put too much in nail polishes, it's perfect and for poeple who like to change often !
The texture is not too creamy but not too liquid either, Silver Glitter is a bit different as it is only glitters I would say the texture is similar as liquid glue maybe ?! but it's really nice on top of another colour, I wore it with a dark red colour for Christmas and for New Year's Eve with Gold Coin from Revlon. We can wear it on top of another colour but this time on only one or two fingers for an original side.
So, if you like changing and you don't have a big budget or you simply prefer putting more money on make up or hair product I think this is a good deal :)

Long distance relationship...



Lots of people think that distance in a relationship is impossible, one of them will cheat or lie or whatever. Some people think that distance is really hard but Love is worth the try, well I am one of them because right now I am living a long distance relationship with an English boy ( I am from the south of France ) it's been 3 years and 3 months that we are together and we love each other so much. Distance is really hard, it hurts, it is a horrible feeling... In fact, I am about to feel it AGAIN (lol)in two days, he is going back home after a month being together non stop. Sleeping alone, Watching movies alone, no cuddles nothing for god knows how long... It can be a month, two months, three months, our longest time apart was four months but this time might be longer unfortunately because of jobs, studies and all this kind of stuff. But we are strong, I trust him 100%. I hope people will stop saying that if he or she is far from you then it's not worth it because even though there are a lot of bad sides in a long distance relationship, there are some wonderful sides and these ones make you forget the bad ones and that is what makes you hold on. Some good things about being far are when you see each other again this butterfly feeling, in your stomach just before you see the person, is the same even after three years, when there is a little tension or fight you quickly forget because it would of been a waste of your time together, you can dream about your future life together and when this time finally arrives and you feel like a fight is going on you will be stronger than the other people because you will think I didn't suffer all this time to end up with him or her like this. So, I hope that people who doubt about their relationship because of the distance are certain to not miss the love story that could change their life... Now, I am done with all this romantism and love and all lol I can say I really don't want him to leave :( so I am going to enjoy the last time with him :)
