When the Ouai haircare line came out last year, the product that immediately grabbed my attention was the wave spray. I naturally have loose curls and I’m always looking for ways to enhance them.
The Jordan Samuel Skin range has become a staple in my skincare routine for more than a year now. If you want to pare back your routine or simply are into a minimalist approach,…
Cream eyeshadows in stick format are great for doing quick eye makeup looks. It really is foolproof, like a grown-up version of coloring (remember playing with your colored pencils?). Ready, set, draw!
Accessories, and jewelry in particular, are a quick way to add something interesting to a simple look and make it seem like you’ve made an effort. Of course, it’s also an enjoyable part of dressing…
I love skincare (the ritual aspect of it, the sensory experience and the resulting glowing skin). It also means that I like to try new products regularly. I tend to introduce them to a well-established…
I wanted to quickly talk about the products I currently use in my shower (a bit of a boring subject perhaps).
My mom is a brilliant cook (and an even more exceptional pastry baker). I want to share some of her recipes on this blog (lots of luscious treats coming your way…). First, let’s begin with…

Magazines are such a great source of inspiration to me. They cover a broad range of topics I’m interested in (e.g. beauty, fitness, culture, society…) and provide interesting visuals. I’ve loved them ever since I…
The other day, whilst rummaging through my beauty cabinet (a cupboard in my desk really), I came across Vita Liberata’s Self tanning gradual lotion.
Granions. I can already hear you moaning: what the hell are those? And most importantly, why should I put it on my face? I had the same questions.
I’ve inherited my mom’s passion for stationery, especially notebooks. When I was younger, we didn’t call it stationery addiction. We just thought we were a little bit crazy.
I’ve never been an avid consumer of fragrances. I enjoy them on occasion but that’s it. This somewhat changed in the summer of 2013. At the time, I was vacationing in Paris when I…

I think the Body Shop’s Camomile silky cleansing oil is the first cleansing oil I’ve ever used. What a discovery it must have been at the time. Taking makeup off in one swoop, effectively and…
I don’t know exactly how long I’ve been using oil makeup removers, years for sure. It’s effective at dissolving makeup (especially waterproof makeup), quick to use and isn’t harsh on the skin. Also, not having…
