Favorites of 2013: Make up
Today is the last day in my favorites of 2013 series. And it’s devoted to one of my biggest obsessions: make up. I think, when push comes to shove, I like make up the most. I like trying out new things, wearing different colors and I never wear the same make up look twice. I…

LOTD: Smokey blues
As I promised you two days ago: my hands were itching to create a make up look with my latest Inglot purchase. I decided to now only use all of the shades in my new palette, but also add some eyeliner and just go pretty much all out with different shades of blue. This is…

Updated make up collection & storage
A collection update. It was about time. The last time I showed this was almost 2 years ago and lots has changed since then. I purged quite a few sections mainly, but on the other hand, not so much has changed. I still store my make up collection in the same way and I honestly…

FOTD: Blackened purple (incl. tutorial in description)
I rarely make a make up look that I feel is awesome enough to redo just to take pictures of it and show it on this blog. Last week however, it happened. I grabbed a few random eyeshadows that I had lying about and felt I should use again and voilá: this is the result.…

FOTD: Minimal smokey eye
I had no clue what to call the following look. The way this came about is because I just recently bought a few items from budget proof brand Catrice which I wanted to try. So to keep it simple I decided to just use all three products in one look. I’m surprised at how it…
