A new start

Hey guys!

I have some news for you:

Lately I've been having some problems with this blog and Blogger. I've becoming more and more annoyed ever since the small poll for a new background. It just did not come together as I wanted it and platform was not helping me much.

So as of now, I am 'parting ways' with Blogger and have moved on WordPress. All the post, comments and pictures are already moved, but there is still a bit of work to do on the presentation. I am inviting you all with open arms and a loving heart to join me on my new page!

You can find the new website here:

Take care guys and hope to see you all there!

Green, green and more green

Hey guys! I hope you are all well!

I have to say that I have been having a green 'fit' lately. I know that green would work best on me, since my hair is red, but never before I was such in a mood for this color! I simply adore it in all tones and shades!

So I thought I should make a darker look, using just one pallet and only green shades. Since I came back home, I can also go back to my known brands (I have to say that I have misses some a lot!) and their new make-up lines. I am especially excited by all the new products they are bringing from the "Alverde" collection, found in "dm" shops. I also wanted to combine some products I got from abroad, and this is what I came up with:

Products used:

Eyes:
- base: Alverde, Creme Eyeliner - 20 Green Lime (product here)
- lid color: mat dark turqoise - Sephora 5 in 1 Pallete, Tango in Buenos Aires (last pallet - image here)

- inner rim liner: S.he Khol Kajal - shades 007 & 008 (no image)

- under eye concealer: Okuma - type 2 (no photo, I could not write the website name, since it's in Japanese)

A bit of change - Voting Closed

Change isn't always bad. In some cases, it can be very good. Since I am starting a new chapter, I am trying to make changes in all aspects of my daily activities.

My blog, the poor little thing, has been very neglected lately and I think that something new is in order. What better than a background switch. But this, I will need your help! This blog was mainly made in order to help my friends which wanted fast and easy advices in beauty and health. Lately, it also became a sort of profile for those that are interested in seeing my work and for that I send a very warm 'Thank you!' to all that recommended me!

I have selected a few option for a new layout. It would be great if you would let me know which one you think would work best for my style, approach and posts. Let me make it a friendly place for you to enjoy every time you drop by!

And....*drumroll*...the choices are:

1. Pinky, cute frames with flags and butterflies


2. Classy, vintage...Red and brown style


3. Delicate old pattern with light yellow-green and grey


4. Sweet dusty pink birdcage with floral ornament


5. I like the current background! I think you should leave it like this!

Please let me know in the comments bellow or vote in the poll I posted on the blog (unfortunately, I could not add pictures there, but they have a small description which will help you)!

Thank you very much! Let's see what the outcome will be!

I'm back!!

Hey guys! I'm finally back from my study abroad. I was on the other side of the world, with my study. It was an amazing and useful time to invest in my future! But now I'm back home and ready to take back my blog posts.

I would also like to say thank you for all those that supported me and helped me through out these months. Although it was a great experience, meeting wonderful people and making new friends, it would not have been so easy if I didn't have the support of those I consider close to me. Thank you!

  
Let's get back on track!
