Here’s looking at you, kid
Had a late night? Say goodbye to those stubborn under-eye circles that inevitably come with it. The trick is to add two easy extra steps to your make-up routine – one before and one after applying your concealer, it is. This doesn’t take much time, but trust me: it really makes the difference!

Nail it!
Do you also have such problems with cracked cuticles and split nails? Ah, all the things I’ve tried. From bathing my fingers in a bowl of olive oil to taking food supplements in pursuit of healthy nails and nail beds. Nothing really worked. (more…)
French Beauty Supply
I’m pleading guilty: I’m obsessed with basically everything French. French food, French fashion, French architecture, French movies – and yes, French beauty products. Lucky me, France is just a stone’s throw away from where I live. The perks of living in Switzerland, really. (more…)
