Five things : My life lately edition .

Hi everyone . Another "five things" post . If you're not yet familiar with these, feel free to check out the past " five things" posts that i did .

Today's Five things will be an update on my life lately !

Life can be so overwhelming. Sometimes , you need to just sit back and relax and do a little recap about your life to put you back in place .

Without further ado , let me present my five things :

1. I've been meditative lately . 

Lately , I've been having deep thoughts about my life , about my studies and about my relationships. Living in a fast- paced city , I sometimes forget to stop and just breath for a while . I feel like I need to continue on moving because if I don't , I will get left behind. I learned that sometimes you just got to enjoy the moment , you have to treasure it because it is something you can't get back . You can't go back to the past , you can't undo the past . 

Empties // Produits Terminés.

Hello everyone ! I’m back ! 

I had to put my blog on the side for months because of university , but i’m back and hello summer ! 
AND HELLO WORLD CUUUUP ! ( woooo Go Belgium!!! ....  and Brazil , and Spain haha) 

I finished my exams last friday and now , i’m just hoping for the best ! 

I hope you’re all doing good . So today’s post is all about the products i have used up - empties ! 

I always liked this kind of post because they are like mini reviews that are straight to the point . And since these are all about products that one have used up , this just means that they really liked these products . 

As you could see, i don’t have that much products to present. I don’t usually keep empty bottles around but from now on , i think i’m going to start keeping them for the sake of doing these kind of posts. So yesterday , since now i’m on vacation , i cleaned up my makeup drawers and found these empty products and say, i think this might interest you!

//Bonjour tout le monde! Je suis de retour! —— ENFIN! J'ai dû mettre mon blog de côté pendant des mois à cause de mes études, mais je suis de retour et .. coucou toi .. l'été! 
ET C'EST LA COUPE DU MONDE ! ( #comeonBelgium ! ... et Brazil et l'Espagne ! )
J'ai fini mes examens vendredi dernier et maintenant, j’espère juste le meilleur pour moi! J'espère que vous allez tous bien. 

Donc, le post d'aujourd'hui est au sujet de mes produits de beauté terminés! J'ai toujours aimé ce genre d'article, car ils sont comme des mini revues qui sont directement au point - sans trop de bla bla. Et puisque ce sont tous des produits qu’on a beaucoup consommé, cela signifie juste qu'on a adoré ces produits. Comme vous pouvez le voir, je n'ai pas beaucoup de produits à vous présenter. Je ne garde pas les bouteilles vides d’habitude - ce qui est normal, enfin , je crois ... mais à partir de maintenant, je pense que je vais commencer à les garder pour le plaisir de faire ce genre d’articles. Donc hier, puisque maintenant je suis en vacances, j’ai rangé mes tiroirs et j’ai trouvé ces produits vides et je me suis dis que cela pourrait vous intéresser! 

Without further ado , here are my empties : 

// Sans plus tarder, voici mes produits terminés. 

Five things.

Oh happy day!
Hello everyone ! Today's post is all about the little things that i enjoy in life . These little things that make me happy .

//coucou tout le monde! Le post d'aujourd'hui parle des petites choses que j'aime dans la vie. Ces petites choses qui me rendent heureuse. 

1. having a lazy weekend or a lazy day .
    avoir un week-end paresseux ou une journée bien tranquille.

once in a while you just need a lazy day , a day where you pamper yourself and just do things that you love . my perfect lazy day would be : staying in my pjs , catching up on my favorite series, having a home spa ( bath + facial mask and all) . what's your's ?

//  De temps en temps on a juste besoin d'une journée “lazy", un jour où vous allez vous gâter en faisant des choses que vous aimez.  Ma "lazy day” parfaite est : rester dans mon pyjama, regarder mes séries préferées , faire un "spa à domicile" (bain + masque facial et tout). Et vous ? C’est comment votre "lazy day" ? 

winter must-haves

Hello everyone , i'm back !  i hope you're all well ...

// coucou tout le monde , j'espère que vous allez bien !  comme promis , voici le premier article en français . Aujourd'hui je vais vous en parler de mes indispensables pour l'hiver. 

juste pour vous dire que je ne suis pas la meilleur en français , je galère encore :) mais j'essaye , donc je m'excuse en avance pour des fautes d'orthographe ou plutôt pour des fautes de grammaire haha! Sur ce, bonne lecture à tout le monde ! 

back to school wishlist

back to school wishlist by xmisschiarax 

Hi guys, so today i wanted to share to you what's on my back to school wishlist, things aside from what's on my normal back-to-school list like school supplies etc. 

the famous NAKED : Urban Decay palette

Hello everyone ! First of all ... what a lovely week ! i can feel summer already ! i hope that this will just continue . these past few weeks aren't that great actually . Getting back to the blog post, as you can see this will be about the NAKED palette. the first one, this post might be late for those "beautyholics" but like we all say , better late than never. i am sure that you (or most of you ) have already seen hundreds of reviews of people who rave about this product. for the past year ( 2012) , this is one of the most rave product along side with Maybelline Mascaras and Nars blushes . I am not the kind of girl who buys hyped products because they are "in" or hit at the moment, i only buy HYPED products that are worth the hype.

DIY Facial Scrub

hey guys!  i just wanted to share to you how i do my DIY Facial Scrub :) it's the honey-sugar scrub.

this DIY honey and sugar facial scrub is one of my favorite homemade beauty recipes! :)

so why honey?

The silky texture and sweet aroma of honey is liked by most people and what it can offer to the skin will make it more pleasurable to use. Honey is a mixture of plant nectar and bee enzymes. Honey offers vitamins C, D, and E plus some minerals.

These are anti-aging vitamins, because they protect the skin from sun exposure, dry wind, and pollution. The combination of vitamins and minerals helps the skin maintain moisture making the skin feel smooth and giving a glowing touch. Honey is also known for its antiseptic benefits.

DIY : organizing bracelets!

as much as i love buying bracelets organizers, i also love doing DIY to save money. so today's post is a DIY Bracelets Holder. my bracelet hangers are already full and heavy so, instead of buying another one, i just got inspired and this is what i did. i also like this one because it is like displaying your bracelets too. in that way, you can see all of them. because if you are like me, i only use what i see.

to keep this post short, let us get started. this is really easy as you can see :) 

five things.

1. DIY projects.

oh how i love DIY projects and being crafty. i've been doing  lot of DIY projects these past few weeks. i get inspiration everywhere but mostly from Pinterest. if you want, i created a board there with DIY . you can check it out here . 

How to : fixing broken makeup.

broken makeup :(

we all had broken makeup powder right? i mean, yeah right? and it always piss me off ! because in a year i can break 4 makeup products. they either fall of my hands because of my clumsiness or i put it somewhere in my bag, and due to a lot of shock, it broke. 

expensive or cheap

new or used up already

favorite or not
we  had this situation.

so, i decided to do a post about  fixing my makeup powders. you can use this SOS for broken eyeshadows, powder foundations, pressed powders, powder blushes etc. 

it is really a quick method to revive your makeup. the materials needed are already at your house. 

materials needed: 

-rubbing alcohol ( best to use 90 %, but i don't have it, so i used 70% )

- wooden spatula/toothpick/tongue depressor/needle or anything else that can mush powder

-eyedropper/spray...

-tissue or a cloth

- and your broken makeup of course

DIY : Yogurt Mask and Happy Halloween :)

oh, how i love Do-it-yourself mask and other beauty recipes.

i just love to use natural products on my skin, and for me they're the best.

WARNING WARNING :

this mask is a NO NO for those who have allergies on dairy products .

sorry :|

BACK TO THE MASK :

yogurt, yoghurt, or however whatever whichever you spell it, it's still yogurt.

i personally don't eat yogurt, but then months ago, i saw various videos on YouTube about yogurt masks.

and then i tried it shortly.

so, why yougurt??

My must-have makeup brushes

make-up brushes
a must have for make up lovers

we all know that it is non-sense if we have great make-up but we have no good make-up brushes.

i always believe that we should invest on good make-up brushes.
because, we use them everyday and they help us to put makeup easily.





of course there is a lot of different makeup brushes out there.

and i may not have all those different brushes,
but with these brushes, i am good and satisfied

so here are my must-haves makeup brushes:
