Continue reading →: Lip product addict tag
Where my first make up vice was nail polish, and my second one was eyeshadow, in more recent times I’ve become a downright lipstick addict. From heavy smokey eyes, I changed up my look to wearing bright or dark lipsticks. I like doing it to add a pop of color…

Today is the day! September 4th 2010 was the first day my blog went live. I knew nothing about blogging, had never done it before and had no idea what to do. Here we are 4 years later and still going strong. And what a ride it’s been. Earlier this…

Continue reading →: Lush oatfix face mask
A Lush fresh face mask. Something I had yet to try. When I found out that you could get one for free when you return empty Lush packaging times 5, I decided to do just that. My choice was easily made. Out of all that was on offer, Oatfix, immediately…

Staying positive isn’t always an easy thing. Trust me, I’ve had my share of negativity in the past and especially in the past year. But the best thing you can do, no matter how dark things can get, is to try and find happiness and positivity in the small things…

A casual stroll through my home town had a big impact on my make up collection. I was just browsing my local high end make up counter and found they had already stocked the fall 2014 limited edition collection by Dior. I had already seen a few sneak peeks here…

Last day of the month and… NO monthly favorites. Because this time I just didn’t have enough new favorites to rave to you about. So I decided to save it up and team up the months of August and September in a favorites’ post. Instead, I am bringing you a…

Continue reading →: Neutral nail colors
A bright nail look isn’t for everyone. And it’s definitely not suitable for every job out there. Let alone a job interview. So what if you want to wear nail polish, but know you can go for a bit more than just a layer of clear polish? There are plenty…

Continue reading →: Job interview outfits
Still sticking with the job interview theme here. Hope you’re still with me! Where on Wednesday I showed you a job interview proof make up look, I thought it would also be fun to show you what I have and would wear to a job interview. Now, different jobs require…

Are you ready? Ready for the pick of the mix, the highlights of my musical month? Because boy, did I find some gems to share with you again. Last week I shared 10 of my summer’s runner ups, and today it’s time for the motherload. These are the songs that…

Continue reading →: Job interview appropriate make up look
Neutral make up looks are the best ones to wear to first days on the job and better yet: job interviews. Or just for every day: when you want to look a bit better but not too done up. Naked make up looks, or whatever you want to call it,…

Continue reading →: Recipe: curried chicken with veggie stir fry & mango
Time for a quick and easy recipe again. This is another one of those “buy-ingredients-and-throw-it-together” type dishes that make up most of my every day cooking. I felt like trying something different. I marinated some chicken with curry powder, made a quick green veggie stir fry and topped up the…

Continue reading →: MAC eyeshadow palette update
MAC do some of the best eyeshadows on the planet. When I first got into make up, I decided to immediately get started on putting together a palette, rather than relying on individual shadows. I embarked on putting together the palette over the course of a year and a half,…

The start of a new school year and the start of a new job: that’s all been happening for me this past week. By this time I’ve been teaching for over 8 years and those 8 years have been a rocky ride. Especially the past year was tough and at…
