| About Me: |
I'm a French young woman (really?!) living in Brussels for a few years, studying politics (freshman). I'm in love with movies (classics, French and European and foreign cinema), music (soul, R'n'B, scores and soundtracks, jazz, old French pop), books, TV shows (BBC period drama, Showtime, HBO shows, MAD MEN) and a newly makeup geek (since October-December 2008)!!!! In my profile pic, I'm on the red steps of the Palace at Cannes (where they premiere the glamourous stars and movies every May of each year at the Cannes Film Festival) where I spent 2 holidays years ago. Excuse me for not seeing me closer, but I didn't have better pics! I'm definitely trying to improve myself, my grades, my makeup skills, EVERYTHING! |

| My Beauty Secret: |
a good body scrub : glowing and clean skin but mainly, embrace your body and features in subtle ways and always take intelligent risks with your personality, looks, mentality, thoughts. Don't be scared by colors, shapes, try out, and see experiment your different beauties!Sounds cheesy, but it works! Embrace your uniqueness, your passion, your difference, you are your own master/mistress and there's nothing you can't do! Reject negativity! Also, cultivate yourselves, enjoy spending time to see a movie, go to a museum, concerts and surprise yourself at enjoying things that are foreign, exotic in your life, read, anything (Who knew I'd grow so fond of Swedish, Italian, German, Indian and old cinema?) Wit and culture are two qualities that every girls should cherish and have! Another thing : sing! No matter what your voice is, just sing! It brightens up your face, forces you to be concentrated yet in your own world. People tell me I have a beautiful voice so it's great to entertain them and also play with myself. When I sing, I'm no longer the shy and quirky Stephanie everyone knows, but I become this sassy and confident creature! |
| My Routine: |
I use makeup probably 4 times a week and I'm not particularly high maintenance! 20 minutes I have yet to change that regime, as I constantly change products! 02/01/2010 50-point-package: 02/25/10 : 250-point package: 05/19/10 : 250 point package: 06/03/10 : 250 point package: |

no one! Yay! |
UDDP is my HG!
I'm starting in makeup and UDDP was one of these items I had to get my hands on! It's white colour suits every eye-lid and blends easily. It creates a canvas on my lid and I no longer need to worry about my eye-liner moving up to my crease, nor have my eye makeup smear and make me look like a racoon in 2 hours! And I do have very oily lids!Even though the packaging cries for a makeover, please, get the UDDP! It's an essential makeup accessory!
Clay mask : watch out you oilies!
Looking for the best natural way to both exfoliate and use as mask product for your impossible oily and acne-prone skin? This green clay wildly stimulates your skin when applied and all you need to do is need to let it dry for 15 minutes without putting on a frown and the clay absorbs everything you want wiped out on your skin. Do give it a try, it's less expensive than the cosmetic masks but even more efficient!!!
Everyday Minerals Golden Medium Tan (Matte)
I finally found a foundation that suits my face! Being biracial, I can only turn to hgh-end brands, and that was an option I didn't want to try out as I'm also new in Makeup.My face doesn't break out, it stays matte and it looks natural and non cakey! Thank you so much EDM!
