As many other people, I believe I was introduced to Tarte through its now cult Cheek Stain, a cream blusher celebrated long before beauty blogs were hype. I got mine years and years ago and to be honest, wasn’t impressed. Maybe the colour was too light for my skin tone and the overall effect was […]
If you love an exotic destination, your next trip must be to Amanjena, in Morocco. First of all, the resort transports you to a Hollywood picture. Or makes you feel like part of Yves Saint Laurent or Talitha Getty ‘s squad in the 1970s. So cool. Anyway, it is located in Marrakesh and the villas […]
I’ve never been a fan of colourful eyeshadow, especially the bright ones. But every now and then a hint of colour made with eye pencil or a some eyeshadow can be really interesting and fun. Just keep the rest of the makeup as neutral as possible, like in the pictures above!

The Tinted Moisturizer, Secret Camouflage and Lip Kisses (I’m a fan!) from Laura Mercier are absolute hits with makeup fans and awarded many times by beauty experts. Nothing bad for someone who wanted to study art and ended up doing art on faces! When Laura left the Provence and moved to Paris, the art school […]
Besides the perfect red lipstick, I also carry an endless search for the perfect mascara, which, according to my standards is not an easy task. It needs to lengthen, separate and thicken my lashes (like Minnie’s and Daisy’s!) but without that artificial ‘doll face’ look. And never, ever leave those annoying clumps! My obsession reaches […]
Amber Valletta is one of those rare cases of inner and outside beauty. When she’s not in a high profile editorial or campaign, or flexing her acting muscles, she manages Master & Muse, a sustainable fashion initiative. The name couldn’t be more appropriate to describe one of the 1990s icons that still on the top after almost […]
