Bold Pink!
I just did my hair again, as you may or may not know by now! It's doing a purple to blue to green transition which inspired me to do a cleaner look rocking a bold pink lip! I may say it thou, I'm not one for bright pinks but I actually liked the result!
Empties! I can't remember the last time I did a post on my beauty trash! I haven't been using a lot of products anyway that are not make-up so here's just the usual things that run out fast.
It took me a while to dive into the hype of the Naked family. I decided to start slow and get one of the Basics palettes considering it has all the essential shades and is wedding appropriate, if I ever need it for the purpose. My first Urban Decay eyeshadow experience was with the Gwen Stefani Palette that came out last Christmas and even thou it has a lot of neutrals per si I decided I needed something less bulky and compact.

How do I even start... last week I was told I looked like a 17 year old and being honest I didn't like to hear it. It's not a bad thing to be 17 when you're 17, but I felt like if you don't know me just by the looks you judge the things I achieved. And this is a way of proving wrong. Looks not always are what they seem to be.
Anyway, I actually turned 21 yesterday, sounds weird to say it. In Portugal 21 is not a big deal, the 18th is thou, but at this place and time I'm not feeling it like the most important thing ever. It's nice, is my birthday. I just stop to realise how many things I achieved in the past 21 years and that's what makes me feel complete. So here's a little story of my life ( since I was 15).
Face is a canvas and art is everywhere... Today's look is inspired by paint, brush strokes and feelings.
I hope you like it and get inspired to do something different with your make-up today! Dare to explore!
Nail polishes, long time no see! Finally I'm not working full time on the bakery and can rock my long colourful nails for the most part of the week! It sounds a bit irrelevant but I've always liked to do my nails and be creative with them, one of the first posts was actually a nail art, which unfortunately I had to stop improving as my pastry course started. For health and safety reasons we can't have long nails let alone with chemicals on top. Since I'm just working part time there from now on I can do my nails on the days off which made me get so excited I bought tons o new polishes.
Summer is not over yet, at least on the calendar! I've decided it's still time to rock that orange product I have sitting in my drawer forgotten all year around. If we can't have the sun we need to brighten the day ourselves!
It's odd that I actually own an orange lipstick, and eyeshadow and even blush! I'm usually a girl for plums and burgundies but hey, there's always a time you'll want to change a bit. And for the record orange shades look stunning when you have a tan (not my case) but if you rock one you will see how perfect they look together!
Soap & Glory is a brand I haven't explored much but the things I own I love! In order to celebrate the brand individuality I decided to put together a post where I share my favourites from the brand to achieve the Summer Glow! (not sponsored, every product was bought with my own money)
A way to start the week, get inspired by the black stones! A winged liner with two colours and dimensional purple lip! Also, the scheduling has changed! I'm now hitting the publish button on Mondays, Wednesdays, Fridays and Sundays for the upcoming months! More content coming up and different looks to get you inspired through out the week!

A lot changed in the past 3 years, for the most part in my personal life, if you've been following me for a while you may know I moved to a different country and by this time in 2013 I was just about to start my pastry course. To think that I finished my make-up course last week seems surreal. It's been a ride that not always was documented in this place but will be shared at some point.
