Once Upon A Time....Jewelleries!!

Hello my beauties!

A few days ago I was introduced to some fantastic and unique handmade jewellery created by a lovely person, Evinhia. She is a very optimistic and creative girl and you can tell that also by her creations! 

While I was in her atelier, I took some pictures in order to show you the things that I am currently obsessed with!

Also, Evinhia, a greek girl born in Brazil, has some unique brazilian amulets called escapularios. They are very special and absolutely amazing. I will show mine up close!

Enough with the talk. Let me show you!

You can check out her facebook page Once Upon A Time by Evinhia

And her blog Once Upon A Time Blog

If you like non ordinary handmade special jewellery, then you should go & take a look!

That's it from me!

Stay healthy & beautiful

2012 Beauty Favourites!!!

Hello my beauties!

Happy New Year! I wish to all of you health, love & luck! 

Did you have fun during the holidays. I want details! 

Beginning this year , I decided the first 2013 blog post to be about my 2012 favourite beauty products. 

What I loved, what I wore the most, which I did not take out of my makeup bag. 

A lot beauty bloggers did the same over the past days, so now it's the time to tell you about mine. 

I have categorised the products so it would be more easier to follow.

Let's start, shall we?

SKIN

Donna Valente exfoliating facial scrub: it is gentle enough to not irritate my skin and good enough to clean it. I love it.

Nelson's Pure & Clear Balancing Moisturiser:

I was searching for an oil free moisturiser that would be a good base for my makeup as well as help my skin with the occasional breakout's. 

Oh yes, I think I found it.

BRUSHES

bdellium tools # 955 for bronzer

bdellium tools # 957 for foundation

bdellium tools # 945 for contouring

MAC # 168 for blush

bdellium tools # 776 for blending

H&M brush for applying eyeshadow, concealer, blending
