In summer, especially when I’m feeling lazy, I drastically reduce my makeup routine, and I often go for a bold lipstick. It’s easy and it immediately brightens the face, especially with a tan.

Divine Oil by Caudalie, my review
The brand Caudalie, well known in France, just arrived here in Dubai. For the occasion, I was invited to the brand launch event, which took place in a wine bar, specifically: Cave in Conrad hotel in Dubai.

Where to find NARS in Dubai?
So, NARS is (re-)launching in Dubai…
I could see the degree of excitement last week when I was joking on my Instagram account about the NARS Dubai launch event.

She called me right away! “Whaaaaat?” It still makes me laugh thinking about it…
Even though I had explained it was a joke in my comments section, I quickly had another message asking me if the launch was taking place…
OK, so NARS, let me tell ya: we’re waiting for you here in Dubai!
