JACLYN HILL COSMETICS (Holiday Collection) // Highlighter Palette, Loose Powder, Loose Highlighter

If you follow my blog for quite a while, you'd know that Jaclyn Hill is my all time favourite beauty guru, fashionista, youtuber, internet person.. whatever you want to call her. To me, she can do no wrong (sure, everyone does something wrong and makes mistakes, and so does Jaclyn.. but I won't stop supporting her because I just think she's so much more than what people make her out to be).

SOL Body Shimmering Dry Oil // First Impression

Today I finally received my Colourpop package from their sister brand called "SOL Body" which recently launched with their first product, the Shimmering Dry Oil. I've been loving the look of all these different shimmery oils that are on the market right now, but I could never bring myself to spend like 35€ on them. I couldn't be more excited telling you that these only retail for 15$ on the Colourpop website. With that price tag, I knew it was going to be the one oil that I would try out.

TOP FIVE FRIDAY // Bronzer

Glad to have you back for another Top Five Friday, today we're going to discuss my top favourite bronzers in my collection. In summer, we not only like to glow, we also love a good bronzed, sunkissed look. So it's only fitting that after my TFF Highlighters, I show you my favourite bronzers as well.

TOP FIVE FRIDAY // Highlighters

I'm introducing to you this new format on my blog called "Top Five Friday" where every other friday, I will show you my top five things in different categories. For the first TFF I thought I'd start with my favourite highlighters, because in the summer we all love to glow.

New Make-Up Favourites // July 2019

I totally got into the habit of using the same exact make-up products, the same exact routine for probably over half a year now. So many new products came out and I wanted to give new make-up a shot, especially since my wedding is just around the corner, I tried perfecting my skills so I can look flawless for the entire wedding day.

I can honestly say that there were nearly no misses when it comes to all the products I recently tried out new, most of them were complete hits and worth every penny. So why not share them all with my community?

My Luxury Handbag Collection // 2019

I've been adding quite a bit of handbags to my collection this year and it just keeps growing and growing. The end of 2018 is coming so what better time than to share my entire luxury handbag collection. And before you wonder, yes there is a specific order in which I'm going - in order of the date I purchased these bags (no favourite/least favourite order here).

Celine Nano Belt Bag, Old Vs. New // Quality Difference? Hardware? New Logo?

I really didn't know if I should write a post about this, but after reading up on the PurseForum, people do seem to be interested to know whether their was a change in Phoebe Philo's handbag designs now that Hedi took over Céline.

Luckily, I do own an "old" Céline Nano Belt bag in the colour Light Taupe as well as a "new" one. I purchased the first Belt Bag a few months before Hedi presented his first collection at Celine. I loved the bag so much that I did end up buying another Nano Belt bag in Grey in late 2018. This bag however already had the new CELINE logo that Hedi introduced.

I thought it might be helpful to see what exactly the difference is between the old and new Belt Bags, other than the obvious Logo change. I'm going to let you know if there is any difference in hardware, leather, overall quality etc.

My Top 10 Beauty & Skincare Favourites of 2018

I have done many many fashion / handbag related blogpost in the past couple of months, so it's definitely time to switch it up again and share my love for beauty and skincare. I found a couple of amazing products in 2018 that I use regularly and couldn't live without.

Of course I use way more products but I made sure to only mention the ones that I actually truly love and are my favourites. For example I'm not mentioning any brow products because I use many different ones and none of them are a true game-changer for me, they all just do what they're supposed to.

Luxury Wishlist for 2019

I should start off by saying that I'm very strict with my wishlists and not everything gets written down on it. If I see a bag that I like the look of, I'm not going to put it on my list unless I did enough research on it beforehand and made sure that it could fit my lifestyle pretty nicely. For example, I'm not going to put Valentino Rockstud Heels on my wishlist even though I love the look of them, but I know I never wear heels, maybe once or twice a year and for that high of a price tag, I'm not even "wishing" for them.

A wishlist to me is more of a "Probably going to buy" list, rather than "Things I find extremely gorgeous" list.

With that being said, let's get into the things I actually consider buying next year or in the future.
