I love lipstick because it’s the one thing you need to bright up your face. Now that the weather is getting warmer, the sun shines and the days are longer, there’s nothing easier and more flattering than a high pony tail, big sunglasses and a bright lipstick.
Here you have my favourite Spring lipsticks and a little trick that will make you look gorgeous immediately.
The perfect Spring lips
21 MaySoin remodelant ventre – taille, Clarins
7 MayWe try to work out, we really do. For a short period of time we even went running a couple of days every week. But… oh well! We love our sofa, enjoying cups of coffee in Winter and fresh drinks al fresco in Summer… and we are always really lazy busy when it comes to visit the gym. So when the weather gets nicer and we don’t have our beloved coats to cover us we go more Clarins-aholic than ever and try all their firming, contouring and slimming products. Now we have all our hopes pinned on this redefining body treatment for abdomen and waist. We’ll let you know!!
Do you like this kind of measures? I’m sure you all work out like crazy all year… right? ;)
Clinique Chubby
26 FebI think that a good lipstick is one of the most flattering accessories a woman can wear. It cheers up every face… if it’s chosen correctly. I have been looking for the perfect burgundy the whole Winter. It was the most trendy shade to wear, but somehow I couldn’t find the right one for me. Finally I did. Clinique chubby lipstick, grandest grape. It’s super moisturising, the colour stays for quite a lot of time and it’s really easy to apply.
I know, I know, Winter is almost gone… I’m always late… but not for Spring! I’ve decided to buy the curvy candy, a lovely light pink, and the chunky cherry, a statement fuchsia to be prepare for warmer weather and sunny getaways.
Have you ever tried these lipsticks? No? You should! You can have a look at them and buy the one you like here.
PS. That book by Emily Schuman, from Cupcakes and cashmere is really inspiring!
Hair
29 JanNow that everyone is talking about the Karlie, the haircut of the moment, I have to say that I’m still thinking about ombre hair! I think it looks gorgeous but I wear buns and ponytails all the time so I’m worried that my hair will look a little bit weird, a little bit colour block, two shades… um… I don’t know. Anyway, what do you think? Do you think ombre hair still rocks or is it too late? Are you going to chop you hair like Karlie? I love it but apparently it’s a no – no for round faces, so no Karlie for me. Sad (round) face.

We need this! Clarins BB cream
25 JanI love Clarins. We have a long love story and I just can’t get enough of it. So I need to try their new BB cream. I’m sure it’s wonderful! If they say it revitalizes, protects and evens skin tone, then I’m sure it really does. Have you tried it? I don’t like to apply foundation everyday, so BB creams are really my first option every morning. After cleaning, toning and mousturising my face, always with my Clarins arsenal, of course. :)
Clarins
23 DecHi everyone! Sorry for the lack of posts but we’ve been travelling and working late. Now we’re in Spain enjoying some quality time with family and friends. Good times!
Some weeks ago I told you that we were huge Clarins fans so I though I might as well show you which products we use. Maybe you can get some last minute Christmas present ideas or use this information to pamper yourself a little bit during the holidays.
Kiehl’s
7 NovFirst of all, let me say that I’m a total Clarins fan. I use their products since I was 20 and, well, my skin is gorgeous. It sounds pretentious but it’s true. Really. Go buy them.
But I have to admit that Kiehl’s Midnight Recovery line is amazing. I’ve read wonders about it so I decided to give it a try, although I was feeling guilty: first time in 10 years that I was cheating on my beloved Clarins! The Midnight Recovery Concentrate is perfect for those who, like me, have a sensitive skin and live in countries with awful weather. I apply it every night and my skin feels relieved and nourished immediately. And oh! the Midnight Recovery Eye! I swear that you will wake up younger. I couldn’t believe it the first time, but yeah, those eyes were mine. It really smooths the under-eye area, it really does!! It’s wunderbar!
