What's In My Bag?


I have seen lots of What’s In My Bag posts on blogs and youtube and I thought it’s time I do one of my own. Since I love seeing what other beauty bloggers keep in their bag, I thought maybe you guys would like a peep inside mine.

Weekly Highlight: Korres Mandarin Lip Butter Stick in Rose


I was totally blown away by this gem of a lip butter that I knew I HAD to feature it in the ‘Weekly Highlight’. Not that I won’t do a full review on it, I fully intend to describe it bit by bit (again).
Korres launched stick versions for their very famous tub lip butters. I am a chapstick person, I find it so icky dipping in pots, so I ordered. And since the day this Korres Mandarin Lip Butter Stick in Rose (with SPF15) has arrived at my doorstep, I have used it every single day, no exaggeration. It is as moisturising as any good lip balm and has the right amount of tint that I would want to look natural. Not too intense like the Revlon Lip Butters or too invisible like the The Body Shop Lip Balms. The shade I picked, ‘Rose’; is a beautiful sheer dark red-pink that looks a part of my lips, and is perfect for these cold, cold days.
Korres Mandarin Lip Butter Stick is available in six different shades for €8.00/$11.00 at Korres, Zuneta and Feel Unique

Fireworks at Rhine River Düsseldorf - Happy 2013 ♥


Last night my husband and I went to eat at a Thai restaurant and then watch some fireworks by the Rhine River in Düsseldorf.  It was such an amazing and scary experience. With fireworks going from everywhere I was not so keen on flying in flames with them haha. The view was beautiful and it felt great to see all the people gathered, celebrating and waiting for the clock to strike 12. I am excited for 2013, wishing and hoping it to be as awesome as 2012. And I wish you all a wonderful year ahead. Hope we continue to grow together and reach destinations we only dream off.
