2013 Round Up

Happy New Year! So I hope you started this year well. For today's post I want to reflect over the last year. As you know I started this little blog in April and since then a few post came together. For the first post of 2013 I want to share some of my favourite posts; the ones I really enjoyed putting together and publishing!

2013

NEW YEARS EVE! 

What is a post without a photo? - Not for me, so I just added a photo I took a while ago of shells although it doesn't relate too much to the topic, I look at it as many little and big dreams that can come true in 2014.

Birthday Presents!

Hello beauties! It was my birthday the other week. I finally turned 16 :)
I don't normally like sharing photos of present on my blog, it feels weird and I don't want to showing off at all. But I received a bunch of cool presents from some awesome people and I wanted to show you guys, because I am so lucky to be surrounded by the nicest people in my life :') Here is just small glimpse at some things that are in the cutest box ever...

MAC Eye Shadow Brun(Satin) - Review and Swatch!

Brun oh brun, where do I begin? I can't live without it. This MAC eye shadow is such a pretty versatile color I recommend to everyone! I bought this shade a while ago. I even mentioned in one of my beauty hauls (here is the link if you want to have a look).
I was looking for a color without shimmer I could use on my brows and this is perfect for me as I have dark brown nearly black hair.

The color is a dark cool toned ashy brown. It's not the typical dark brown shade but like a said really versatile. The consistency is pretty smooth and with its satin texture it also blends well with other colors.

Like I said it's a very versatile color. I  mainly use it to fill in my dark eyebrows  but also to deepen my crease, as a lid color, all over my lid( for a brown smokey eye) and as well as a liner. I would recommend to build up the color as I think it gets a better effect. The color looks exactly like in the pan so you won't have unpleasant surprise!

Like every other MAC eye shadow it will stay on all day with an eye primer underneath.

If you are looking for a deep brown eye shadow or you're not sure on which one to chose for neutrals, I'll definitely say to get this shade!

I'm looking for some new MAC eye shadows to add to my collection. What do you think should I get? Much Love, Catherine <3

Season's Greetings

This evening is the last evening in November. For me it means - the last evening being 15 years old. I'm finally turning 16 tomorrow! Yay :) So December has come around so quickly that honestly it feels like it's only the beginning of autumn.
I'm in a festive mood since mid of November and I am really, really excited for Christmas! :)
Here in Switzerland it already started to snow so that's even a reason more to be in a holiday spirit! Don't you think?

I have some post coming up soon which I am really excited about! And I'm also in a posting spirit that means I'm hopefully posting more in December :)


If I would ask 100 people to name something associated to Switzerland one of the top answers I think would be cheese.  Am I right? :) But it could have been chocolate, or watches, or alps or Heidi. What would you answer?

I took this picture about ten minutes after it started to snow last week :) xx
