Beautiful make-up doesn't need to be expensive, budget brand Essence has beautiful make-up for very low prices.

Herôme Hand Care

The weather gets colder outside and my hands always react to that and get dry. Your hands have a lot to endure throughout the year, think of cold, sun and cleaning products, but they are often forgotten when it comes to care, me too, I only grease my hands when they feel dry. Every day I use an anti-aging cream for my face but also hands get old quickly and will often betray your age because the skin on your hands is quite thin and wrinkles and age spots can be noticeable faster. To also add some hand care to my daily routine I've two products by the brand Herôme in ...

We're already a couple of days in the month of October so it's about time to put up an emptied blogpost.

Normally I'm not really a lipstick girl, mostly I like to go for a nice lipgloss but after I'd read some positive reviews of the latest NARS lipstick I was curious enough to buy two beautiful colors from the collection. NARS Audacious Lipstick. The collection of NARS lipstick Audacious consists of 40 different colors, all colors have been given a name and are named after a famous woman. The formula of this lipstick is really amazing and gives a satiny finish on your lips, the lipstick is not completely matt but certainly not glossy, it's somewhere in between, creamy matt is probably the best description. The lipsticks ...

This recipe was actually created because I was putting the last products from the refrigerator together to see if I could make a decent supper out of it or that I had to make a quick visit to the supermarket.

The bacon could have been more to my taste but unfortunately I had no more bacon, the above ingredients are certainly enough for 4 people. The ingredients. 400 grams Couscous (about 100 grams per person is enough). 1 pack Bacon 1 Zucchini 1 Avocado 1 ...
