Generally, I’m not a big fan of Holiday makeup collections and frankly, I’m not really into it (not Holidays, I’m so into that, the Holiday’s collections, not my cup of tea!). NARS usually launch something very different from others makeup brands, so I was curious to see their collection! For me, holiday makeup collections often […]
How to: Natural oil hair mask
Recently, I discovered that doing a hair mask with natural vegetable oils was very good for my dry hair so I decided to tell you more about it! I realize that I have rarely been talking about hair care lately, so here goes… First of all I have a good reason for not constantly talking about hair care […]
NARS Audacious Lipsticks, my review
My dear lipstick-addict friends, I think we have the second best lipstick launch of 2014! I name the new range of NARS lipsticks: the NARS Audacious Lipsticks! Yes, because for me, the other best lipstick launch this year, it’s of course the beautiful Pure Color Envy by Estée Lauder, which I had already talked about here. To tell […]
Priti NYC natural nail polishes, my review
The first time I heard of the Priti NYC natural nail polishes, the least I can say is that I was listening very carefully. Nail polish and natural, in fact, are unusual words to hear in the same sentence, let alone to describe the same product… It reminded me of Kure Bazaar, a French nail polish brand […]
Ask Bonnie #1: Exfoliant, scrub, peeling… what are they?
I decided to start a new section on the blog: ‘Ask Bonnie’, and I’ll try to answer any questions you may have about cosmetics. Yes, because I’m ambitious like that! In this section, I would like to talk about products but also give some tips. I’ve got lots of ideas, but I’d love you to […]

Aaah, Hourglass powders and blushes… If you’re like me, obsessed by beauty blogs or YouTube videos, you probably know what I’m talking about. Otherwise, stay with me, I’ll introduce you to Hourglass and more specifically to the last product launched: the Ambient Lighting Blush Palette! Hourglass is an American brand that only exists since 2004. Carisa […]

Yayyy, Fall is (really) here in Dubai! We can finally put jumpers or jackets (well, just during the night but that’s progress) and also wear all the beautiful autumn makeup collections! So today I will introduce you to the NARS Fall 2014 collection. * Yes, I know, it’s a bit of a NARS festival here right […]
10 key questions for an effective skincare routine
Inundated with information about skincare? Feeling it’s impossible to find an effective skincare routine… We often hear anything and everything about the skin: ‘the right gestures’, the miracle skincare products promising a ‘complete transformation of your skin’…
In this post, I want to focus on questions that I have often been asked in my professional life.
I worked for a cosmetics brand as a trainer for spas and beauticians for almost 10 years. I have often met regular customers in pharmacies, department stores, beauty counters while I was training the sales personnel…
Bombarded with so many cosmetics adverts, magazine articles and of course beauty blogs, why wouldn’t you feel overwhelmed. It’s so tempting to buy the latest skincare product from [fill in the blank] because you so want to believe in miracles. And of course at the end, more often than not, you feel disappointed.
Nars Night Series eyeliners, my review
There is a first for everything, apparently. I wouldn’t have thought I would one day be disappointed by a NARS product, but that’s what happened to me with the new Night Series eyeliners*… These four pencil eyeliners came out in the same time as the NARS Fall collection and they’re an addition to the permanent collection. These […]
Charlotte Tilbury Matte Revolution Love Liberty, my review
Today, let’s talk about a lipstick.

If you don’t know her, here is Charlotte Tilbury: (on the left in the photo above) (she posed with a girlfriend […]
