Favorites | May

Hi there !

I love the beginning of a new month ! Not only because I typically change up a few thing, but also because YouTube is filled with 'monthly favorites' videos, maybe even my favorite type of video :) So, I thought it would be nice to do a similar post on here to. Without further ado, here are my May favorites !

Beauty

Mac's Mineralized Skin Finish in Soft & Gentle | I had heard a lot about this highlighter and wanted to see for myself if it was worth the hype. Well, it is ! I absolutely love this one and it has become a part of my daily make up routine. This highlighting powder doesn't only look nice (just look at the beautiful rose gold swipes !) it really gives your face a beautiful healthy glow. I apply this with a little fluffy brush (Because I don't really have a suitable brush YET) right above the apples of my cheeks (the typical highlighting area), on my forehead, my cupid's bow and I draw a little invisible line on my nose (to make it appear a bit thinner)

Garniers's BB creme Miracle Skin Perfecter for combination to oily skin in Light | I have been wanting to try this one for a while, since I have very oily skin and I've never really found a BB creme that didn't make me shine at the end of the day. This one claims to keep you shine-free, so I was excited to try it out. Since I am mentioning this in my favorites, it obvious that I liked it, but I still have a blogpost waiting with a full review on it so you'll hear about my experience soon ;)

Essie's Turquoise & Caicos | This is actually the first ever more 'daring' color nailpolish I've ever bought and I absolutely love it ! Just looking at it makes me happy. It is a really pretty pastel turquoise-green color. Once again, post on this one coming soon !

Bioderma's Sensibio H20 | Once again, I had heard a lot about this make up remover and I was so excited when I was a bottle of it at the drugstore. I went ahead and bought the huge bottle as you can see and I really didn't regret it. Definitely worth the money ! I use this every night to take off my make up and more than any other product I've ever used this one removes make up so easily. I just take a cottonpad, put some of the product on and press it onto my eyelid for about ten seconds before swiping away almost everything I have on there at once. This thing works miracles !

Fructis' Shampoo & Conditioner in Pure Shine | I had heard Ingrid -or Missglamorazzi- rave about the fructis shampoo and since I needed a new one, I decided to try this one out. It is amazing, my hair looks so much better than when I used my previous shampoo by Syoss. It also feels a lot cleaner, especially now that I'm growing out my fringe and using a lot of styling products. 

Lush's Ocean Salt Facial Scrub | The only Lush product that I owned was a lip scrub (which I love so much) but I wanted to try something new from Lush and I needed a new facial scrub, et voila Ocean Salt Scrub was added to my collection. There is (once again) still a full review coming up on this one, but I really love it and it has proven to be worth the money.

Fashion
Comfy Clothes | Since I am in the middle of revision and I don't really like spending the day in my pyjamas not wearing make up, I tend to just dress a bit more comfy and use minimal make up on. I've been wearing a lot of leggings, oversized sweaters and t-shirts. The ideal outfit to be at ease while studying :)

Lifestyle

Tumblr | I've been so obsessed with Tumblr these last few weeks, I can lose hours on there ! I actually wrote a blogpost about it and the fact that I only seem to tend towards one (or three) particular color of pictures on there. Read all about it over here.

Lipton Green Tea Intense Mint | I have given up my coffee addiction and changed it for a tea addiction. For the last few weeks I've been ending my days checking the internet, sipping on some tea and watching YouTube videos (it's an addiction). I just have this tea with a bit of honey and it is literally the best tea I've ever had (very easy thing, because I just recently started drinking tea)

I hope you liked this first favorites post :) Talk to you soon !

Lifestyle | It's June !

Hi there ! It's June already ... Oh boy ! Well, I have this habit of changing a few things up at the beginning of each month and I thought it would be nice to share them with you. 

What I do is each month I compose a moodboard of pictures I reblogged on Tumblr and make this the background of my laptop. This way, every time I see my background I'm feeling inspired by all the pictures :) The second thing I do is changing the inspirational quote on my bathroom mirror. I love to have a quote on there that inspires me, because I kinda spend a lot of time in front of that mirror ;) So every time I'm in front of it I will read this and it will lift me up or get me going, whatever it needs to do !

This month my moodboard consists of mostly white - beige - cream pictures, because as you know from my previous post ... I've got quite an addiction going on !

My inspirational quote for this month is one from the Breakfast Club, I haven't seen this movie, but I found this quote on Tumblr and it really relates to me. I am the type of person who will consider other people more than myself, but I also need a lot of confirmation. I care a lot about what other people think of me and sometimes I need to realise that I don't have to please/impress everyone.

Talk to you soon !

Lifestyle | White - Beige - Cream Tumblr

I might have developed a new addiction (besides One Direction that is ... yeah ... blame revisions) I've had a Tumblr account for a couple of months, but didn't really use it very much and then last week I discovered the world of White - Beige - Cream blogs on there. Needles to say, these blogs mainly have pictures with a White - Beige - Cream colourscheme and I absolutely love it. If I could, I would get all of my stuff in white, I just like the sight of it. My laptop is white, I used to have a white phone (unfortunately I lost that one, I miss it) and I love white based interiors (thinking about painting my room white). I'm in the middle of revision right now and whenever I take a break from studying, you will find my on Tumblr (whilst singing along to One Direction of course ... I honestly feel like a teenager, obsessing over yet another hype ... Can't help it though) So yes, above you can see what kind of pictures I'm talking about and if you feel like following me on Tumblr, you can find a link to my blog at the top of this blog.

Talk to you soon !

Fashion | Once Upon a Time by Karl Lagerfeld

I absolutely loved this short film by Karl Lagerfed. It tells the story of the Young Gabrielle 'Coco' Chanel and is very beautifully visualised. Those hats and dresses, tweet jackets, ... Just stunning !

Excuse me for all the quietness on here, I've been running around lately doing all kinds of things. In school finals are coming up and I finally found a job for the weekends, so I have been quite busy. BUT during finals my breaks consist mostly of browsing the internet and writing, so you can expect more posts in some time :)
