Make-up – Work from home edition
Working from home since the pandemic, I figured that I could hide for a few weeks and work in my pyjamas if I feel like it: no need to blow dry my hair or even wearing makeup if no one sees me. After a few days, I had to admit that I needed to dress… Continue reading Make-up – Work from home edition
Cerave SA Smoothing Cream
For many years now, I have Keratosis Pilaris (also know as chicken skin in my family) on the top of my arms. Nothing dramatic but enough for me to only wear longer sleeves to hide the issue. It was something I had accepted to suffer of and did not think that it could be fixed.… Continue reading Cerave SA Smoothing Cream
The Rushower Dry Shampoo – Soap & Glory
I have never been a big fan of dry shampoo.

Oh Urban Decay... This brand reminds me when I started to be into make-up. At the time, all the beauty youtubers and bloggers were talking about one palette: the Naked 2 from Urban Decay.
