London Calling, a year later

A year has passed since we arrived, frightened and happy, here in London.
I remember very well that Saturday, the empty house, the last problems, the plane that is flying and the sadness that assaults, the late arrival, the infinite kindness of our guest who offers us excellent red wine, the first tour of Clapham High Street, our first room,...

#289 - My lucky day

Although the journey was shorter, we had no time to unpack, and we left for a barbecue with friends. In the morning, I was about to give in, as it was pouring in Milan, and I had tiredness that not even the Third World’s debt with the First.
But I resisted, and we set off since it then stopped raining and the weather was clement enough to take a nice walk....

#218 - Changing perspective

All I know these days is that I must relax and clear my head. Going on a little trip and maybe taking a few more in the coming weeks is an excellent way to do that.
There would also be the detail that, after the famous change of season, I realised that I need to buy some essential clothing,...

# 122 - bareMinerals READY® To Go Complexion Perfection Palette

This bareMinerals palette is really convenient: it contains the foundation, the powder, the bronzer, the illuminant, the concealer and two small brushes; is obviously sold in different colours, the only ones that remain the same are the bronzer and the illuminant.
I took my trusty R250, with which I am very well.
Together with the Perfect Ten make the perfect travel kit,...

#61 - bareMinerals Perfect Ten

bareMinerals Perfect Ten

The Perfect Ten by bareMinerals is a perfect travel palette. Consisting of six eyeshadows, two lipsticks, a blush, an illuminant and two small brushes (which are pretty useless to me, but I don’t like brushes with natural bristles), it has this beautiful packaging that zips up, which is very convenient.

#22 - Boulevard de Beauté Make Up Set Smokey Eyes

I purchased this palette of 6 colours, in the for blue eyes version, from Douglas to the insane amount of 5.99 euros last week.
I have had the chance to try only two colours for now: the first at the top left, as a base, and the last at the bottom left, mixed at the base on the mobile eyelid and then pure in the crease of the eye....

#10 - Neal's Yard Remedies

A brand I love, they have a wonderful shop in Covent Garden (one of many); unfortunately for me, I only got two products (and I regret it because I would have had to take half the shop away), but they are both fabulous: a face cream and make-up remover wipes.
The face cream is great for both day and night;...

The little things

It sometimes happens that you are happy for the little things that happen to you, yet this feeling of well-being goes on for days.
Three of them happened to me, and I am still happy that they happened.

I saw a beautiful handmade vase made by someone I love and thought it would be perfect for a corner of my room....
