beauty: YSL

I am not such a fan of using makeup, but sometimes I like to have some products just to make sure I can always make myself look fancy if needed and take care of my skin in general. The past month has been a productive one when it comes to beauty and makeup in general. 

Firstly, I had contact with my first beauty box. I am sure many of you already know the concept, but if you don't, I am going to explain it. Basically, you receive a box with random make-up or beauty products. You may choose to subscribe so that you get it every month. I must admit, I was curious to try something like this, and when I finally found a brand that delivered to my country, I took the chance. The box is by Pick N Dazzle I am very pleased with the contents. I wanted to capture them on the blog, but I have already opened them and, therefore, I can not.

Secondly, I had the luck to win a contest on the Absolutely Fabulous blog. The prize consists in a YSL Vernis a Levres and YSL Touche Eclat. I was pretty amazed when I actually saw that I was one of the lucky winner as I would not normally buy such luxurious products as they do not fit my student budget. I am so excited to wear the lip product at a special event. As you can see the color I received is very strong and daring.









Apart from those, I actually did buy some stuff by themselves. A face mask and a face scrub.






I hope you like this post even if it was somewhat different of what I usually post.
Thank you for reading!

exploring Bucharest: Mogoșoaia Palace

Good thing I am alive! I can not believe that this is my first post in 2017. It appears to me that, I usually take these trips, whether in Bucharest or not, without much planning beforehand. The beauty of having people around that you can do these kind of things with.  This time it was Mogoșoaia Palace, situated near Bucharest. Unfortunately, we were unable to visit the inside of the building. However, the lake near the estate, the park and the Palace itself were such a pleasant view. Lucky us it was a sunny beautiful day. I went full denim with the outfit, added my  beloved pair of Vans and I was good to go. Furthermore, I will let the pictures do the talking. the group Thank you for the photo takers and everyone who made this trip possible. See you next post!

winter recap

Image
Spring has almost landed on our planet. Winter is doomed to be over, and although there are a few traces of it left here or there, we can acknowledge that the weather is getting warmer and the days brighter. This being said, I would like to make a review of my winter using my Instagram  photos and also other pictures I took during these months. December December was nice. We had a snowless Christmas which was not so bad. As you can see I got the chance to decorate my room with beautiful bouquets of roses. I was also the Santa of my classroom, meaning that I was the one who distributed the gifts at the Secret Santa event. One night, coming home from a meditation class, I took a photo of the majestic Christmas tree placed in the central part of the city. January Well, we actually got some snow in January. I was also far more productive when it comes to school and taking photos. On the first pic you can see the not so festive napkins I used when setting...
