My Experience with French Skincare

Consensus states that French skincare is the best skincare. True, Korean beauty is putting up a fight, but French skincare is still the classic to beat. No surprise, I wanted experience it for myself. 

Over the summer, I spend some time in France. I road tripped from the north to the south of France and I stayed in Paris for a few days. So, there was no way I wasn't going to take advantage of my time there and find out what all the skincare fuss was about. So, I did my research and found out what the staple  French/Parisian skincare product were.

My Biggest Beauty Mistakes

Today, I bought myself a white lipstick. It was part of a halloween range and I got all excited. It was new, it had a cool name and sleep deprived me just had to get it. Now, after one or two coffees and a bowl of Chinese food, I realise that I might have made my biggest beauty mistake yet. It's the perfect occasion to look back on all the beauty mistakes I have made in the past.

No Makeup Sunday

After a week of foundations, blushes and bronzers, a day without makeup can do wonders to your skin. To make sure my skin gets to recover from a week of makeup, I have at least one makeup free day every week. I tend to have one on Sundays. On those, I usually stay in, relax and catch up on some work for school. It’s the perfect day for me and my skin to take a breather.

What I Got For My 21st Birthday

On Saturday, April 2nd, I turned twenty-one. To celebrate, my family and friends gave me some amazing gifts. From makeup, to skincare, to jewelry, to books and movie tickets. They spoiled me rotten. I’m so grateful to have these lovely people in my life. Here are some of the things they got me.

Top 5 Skincare Products

It is no secret that I love experimenting with my beauty products. New eyeshadows or lipsticks are welcome any day. I’ll try out as many as I can on my little student budget. But, to be able to use all these amazing products without breaking out all over the place, I have to follow my skincare routine. Over the years I seem to have found one that is perfect for my skin and the problems it comes across. I have been using the same skincare products for years now. A dermatologist recommended some products to me when I was about 14. And I have stuck to them ever since. Sure I have made some slight changes and added some products here and there since your skin changes over time. But the core pretty much stayed unaltered.
