5 reasons why I love it when it’s cold

21 October 2017

The summer is alright, I mean, I wouldn’t say I hate it, with a passion, I’ve been told ‘hate’ is a strong word, but it always gets too hot and sweaty, specially here in Morocco, and the next thing you know, your makeup's dripping off, and then you're desperately wishing for it to be over, am I right or am I right?!

Here are 5 reasons why I freaking love it when it’s cold:

Your make up slays all day:

Let’s be real here, no matter how many ‘heat proof makeup’ tutorials you watch, whatever primer or fix bla bla bla you’re using, your make up is going to crease and eventually smear off! You can never work with a sweaty face, and that ladies, is a FACT! But now that it’s getting a little bit cooler, my face stays pretty much the same after hours and hours and this makes me so happy!

You get to stay at home more:

Anyone who knows me personally knows that I’m such an introvert; and since people generally tend to spend less time outside in this glorious weather, I don’t really have to explain myself all the time when I stay at home. This weather totally makes me want to stay at home curled up in my bed and watching a good movie.

No mosquitoes:

For a very long time I’ve been bragging that I never get bitten by mosquitoes, but this summer, it was a different story, I don’t know what happened? They really made up for all the years that they’ve been leaving me alone! But now that it’s getting a little bit cooler, it’s kind of over! They’re not around as much anymore, I don’t know what happens to them though, do they die and go to hell?! Maybe I should google it… You know what? I don’t care! For now, I’ll live in peace.

Clean air:

Aaaahh clean crisp wintery air is my favorite type of air! Obviously! I love breathing in the cool, fresh air; there’s nothing quite like it for making me feel alive.

Sweaters and ankle boots:

Right?

WHAT I WORE:

JACKET: Stradivarius | TOP: Stradivarius | UMBRELLA: Mango (similar here) | HANDBAG: Parfois

Thank you for stopping by, and I will see you in the next one!

The one with the perfect autumnal look #FOTD1

19 October 2017

I did it people! I chopped it all!

Well not all, but I did get a long bob or a LOB if you’re one of the cool kids. And you know what? I love it! I feel good, I feel free and I feel like a whole new person.

I was just getting tired of my very unhealthy long hair, and I thought this might help, and you know what? It did, I was right! For once J

But this post is not about my hair, it’s about this very easy beautiful autumnal look. I posted a few pictures of this look on my Instagram last week, and I got a lot of question about the products I used, and even requests for a tutorial, witch by the way, I tried to do multiple times but I failed miserably! I just don’t know how to edit the damn thing! Hopefully I’ll figure it out soon.

This look is all about a one Copper eye shadow Smokey eye, with bushy eyebrows, thanks to my dad, and a nude lip.

Since I have very hooded eyes, I love applying this coppery goodness very heavily along the bottom lash line as well as on the entire lid. I don't use too many black accents such as black eyeshadow or liner just because I want the look to be more about the copper shadow, so it’s more noticeable and striking, and because I’m lazy AF too.
