Novexpert Booster Serum with Hyaluronic Acid

In my last blog post I told you that I currently hydrate my skin with the Booster Serum by Novexpert. The last few weeks my skin suffered a little by the sun in Florida.

The Novexpert skincare is 100% natural and contains no chemicals. Guaranteed 0% preservatives and hypoallergenic. The brand was developed by a number of French doctors who all are specialized in anti-aging. Since 2014 the brand is for sale exclusive at IciParisXL (Dutch). Novexpert Booster Serum ...

Travel Essentials

About time for a new blog post! After my 2 weeks in sunlit Florida with my family, I've a lot of catching up to do on my blog. I got a few questions about what I take with me in my carry-on on such a long flight. I don't take with me that much (not counting the baggage of my husband and children, lots of candy I can tell you that). Besides my carry-on I also take with me my handbag. So that's two pieces of hand luggage and that's not allowed with every airline. Check in advance the website of ...

Recipe Mac & Cheese with Tuna

As we almost leave to sunny Florida, I thought it would be fun to put a typical American recipe online. Mac & Cheese, or macaroni and cheese, is very popular in America and is a real comfort food. It's popular among children but of course adults also love macaroni and lots of melted cheese. The standard version is great but can be much healthier. Besides macaroni, milk and lots of cheese, I've added some vegetables and canned tuna. Recipe Mac & Cheese with Tuna.  What do you need? Amount is enough for 4 people. 400g macaroni 2 cloves garlic 1 zucchini 1 container cherry tomatoes 1 pack ...

The great thing of a booster and serum is, that when your skin just needs some extra attention, you don't have to change your whole skincare routine. Just add it and your skin will ...

Silicones for a clear skin?

An indispensable product in your makeup stash is a primer. A primer ensures that your makeup last longer and it evens out your skin.

Besides that it makes my skin smooth, this primer also protects my skin from harmful influences from outside and it works against aging. The main ingredients of this primer are Silicones and Vitamin E.Silicones for a clear skin?What I noticed, since I use ...

I'm a big fan of the Tarte Rainforest of the Sea foundation, a lightweight foundation with a natural finish and enough coverage. Tarte is a brand that makes you greedy, beautiful products with even better packages! I was curiously for a while about the Tarte Frxxxtion Stick, an exfoliating cleanser but in a stick.

Instagram Stories

The first weeks of January I always find a bit dull. December is the month of fun and cosiness and then everything falls silent after New Year's Day and the "normal" life starts again. My Instagram Stories from early January will therefore mainly be about the weather, and particularly how cold it is! I'm just not so good in cold weather.
