Skincare science and quick reviews
It seems to become a tradition that I start my Favorites posts mentioning one thing that would have made it into my monthly recap for sure, had I known it already when filming. Same thing happened with my May 2017 Favorites and Recap : I had a day off work on the 23rd, managed to sit down to film AND edit this video, and the next day, casually browsing beauty blogs as you do, I learned that Sephora is coming to Germany. Really, it is, with a set…
After the positive feedback I got on my latest First Impressions video (watch here in case you missed it), and because they are so much fun to film, I decided to stick to the concept and do another one. The one thing I need to work on is my language (you´d think I would have learned that by now, with a two year old around that repeats everything) and my rambling. Oh wait, that makes two things. Maybe on my maths as well, to make it three. …
In case you missed the Spring Edition, here is the link to the post explaining what the Seasonal Makeup Challenge is all about. For the rest of us, the rules as a quick reminder: The rules „At the beginning of a season (Winter, Spring, Summer, Fall) I will choose some pieces of makeup from my stash and post them here. By the end of that season I shall post how well (or not) I’ve done using them up, and propose new pieces for the following season.“ (The Polished…
If you are not familiar with the “Favorite Face of …” series, click here for a little introduction. Short story even shorter, it is the makeup that I wore most during that month, featuring the favorite (as in most used) makeup products. Even though I don’t celebrate Valentines Day, I feel like February is the month were you really can´t escape the pinks. And even though pink usually looks either washed out on me or like I am trying to to Barbie-Cosplay (I wish I had that waist…),…
Time to throw away my empties once again this year. And because I don’t believe in waiting for New Years Eve to start something new, I figured that would be the perfect opportunity to film my first ever YouTube video!

If you are not familiar with the “Favorite Face of …” series, click here for a little introduction. Short story even shorter, it is the makeup that I wore most during that month, featuring the favorite (as in most used) makeup products. Many of you will know by now that I am usually not wearing much makeup when working. But as I am home at the moment (read here why), I was able to go all out and enjoy fall makeup at its finest. A dark brown-purple smokey eye, paired with bold…
If you are not familiar with the “Favorite Face of …” series, click here for a little introduction. Short story even shorter, it is the makeup that I wore most during that month, featuring the favorite (as in most used) makeup products. I have stated numerous times before that I am not ready for fall yet. In fact, I still have a beach vacation coming up in ten days (yay!), so I refuse to turn to fall colors and collections and still cling to my coral lips and shimmery bronzes. Orange eyeshadow…
Have your parents read you the story of “Little Häwelmann”? Maybe they haven’t, it is a german book, written by Theodor Storm for his eldest son. It was an old book when I was little, so it may count as antique now that I read it to my daughter. It is the story of a little boy that doesn’t want to go to sleep, and when his mother, rocking his crib before, finally falls asleep herself cries out “More, more” so loudly that the Moon hears him and let´s him…
I am constantly running late. Not that I actually AM late in the end (I hate that), but things have gotten a lot less relaxed around here. The reason… well, you have guessed it. Little Bean. A few days ago I was just grabbing some necessities when I realized she had left the room. With my key. It were mere seconds, but when I went after her, the key was gone, and I had no idea where she had put it. Did I mention she doesn’t talk yet? I found…

If you are makeup obsessive lover like I am, you are constantly on the hunt for inspiration. And what better place to find it than other beauty blogs?
