Everyday Fall make-up look 2017

Fall is coming and even though I'm not one to like the rain or the winds, I am really excited about the make-up and the fashion that comes along with the fall months.
In summer, dressing up is easy. Pretty much anything will do: floral, dresses skirts, any type of shorts...
In fall and winter, I feel like you have to try a little harder, but you really get the chance to take it away and express yourself completely.

It's also a make-up thing. In fall and winter, I feel you're more challenged to go darker and to try new things. I, for one, wouldn't wear a brown or purple lip in summer. In fall or winter, I would.


My current make-up look for fall 2017 consists of mainly orange and copper tones. This eye make-up is created mainly with my Morphe 350 palette, which is a beautiful, fall appropriate palette. It has sold out a couple of times and I really can't say that I'm surprised. Who wouldn't want a beauty like this?

EOTD: Morph into Morphe!

Before I started blogging, I watched a lot of beauty videos on YouTube. The girls who made videos were limited (unlike the many millions of girls and boys on YouTube today).
Jaclyn Hill is amongst one of my favourite YouTubers and it's because of her that I got to know the make-up brand "Morphe".
First, I believe they made brushes only. Now they also make eyeshadow palettes. And how beautiful they are! I have shown you a couple palettes that I got recently and I'll be getting some more for sure!
 
 
Today's look is a look made with one of my Morphe palettes. It's called the 35F palette.
I used two shades of matte brown eyeshadow in my crease and some gold and shimmery greens on my lid.
On my lower lashline, I used a purple eyeshadow and a whole lot of black eyeliner. Nice and smokey! 
 

I hope you enjoyed this look. Before I go, I'd like to hear back from you: are there any things that you would like to see (more) on the blog?
Would you like some tutorials? Are you interested in Halloween looks? Fall looks? Let me know!

 
Have a lovely day!

Travel Diary: Malaga - part 2

Goodmorning! Happy Friday! 
I love looking back on my holiday and for the second time, I'd like to give you a sneak peek in my three days in Malaga. This post is mostly about the food we ate.

 

These first four pictures give me a great flashback to one of the nights at the restaurant. It was getting quite late so we decided to go into the hotel restaurant to have dinner. I asked for tuna tartar and I will never forget what happened next.

The waiter actually came to my table with all the ingredients and made the food exactly the way I told him I liked it. One ingredient at a time. We go out to eat very often but we have never seen anything like this. It made our whole trip.
Such a talented guy!

 

We visited a couple of local markets as well. Fresh fish, nuts, veggies and fruits! Yum! 


Local market at the harbor. It's only there temporarely, but it's so much fun to do. Great if you're going for a walk.



I hope you enjoy the rest of your day. Have a good one! 
Thanks again for reading!

Fenty Beauty 'Throphy Wife" highlighter review!

There's nothing a woman like Rihanna can't get away with. Time and time again she steals the show. Rihanna has recently launched a beauty line and while I was in Malaga, I got my hands on one of her products (since we don't have a Sephora in Belgium)! Fenty beauty is a reference to Riri's real name: Robyn Fenty.

I got.... a highlighter of course! This one is a beautiful gold highlighter called "Trophy Wife".
The packaging is simple, but beautiful. It's shaped unlike any other highlighter in my collection. 


This what you see when you open up the highlighter. A beautiful gold highlighter with the Fenty Beauty initials.
 Below you can see the swatch. I was quite positively surprised. Look at that pigment! What I really like about this highlighter is that, when you apply it, it's still quite subtile. 


This is what the highlighter looks like on my skin. I really like the way it looks on my skin. When the light catches the highlighter, it's just so beautiful. I do think the highlighter could be a little too dark for people with very light skin, but I think you could even use this highlighter as an eyeshadow.



I'm very happy with this Fenty Beauty highlighter. It's the only product I got from the whole collection but I'm very happy with it! 

Thanks for reading!

Malaga outfits ♥

While Belgium is getting cold and rainy, Malaga is a tropical, magical place with lots of sunshine and very little clouds.
While we were there, we had the chance to take a couple of pictures. We only had handluggage for out flight so the pictures are taken for a phone - nevertheless, I wanted to share them.
