OOTD in Germany : A Day in Heidelberg

Last week I spent a few days in Germany and on one of those days I put together an outfit which I was quite happy with. The weather that day was overcast, slightly rainy but not too cold. My outfit was therefore practical (for the cold), but also looked quite good for walking around a castle and beautiful old town.

Old vs New: Laura Mercier Silk Creme Foundation

It's no secret that I fell hard, very hard, head over heels in love.... for a foundation. The Laura Mercier Silk Creme foundation has been my favorite full coverage, special occasion, never have a bad makeup day foundation for over two years now.

However, all good things come to an end right? Laura Mercier reformulated this amazing product.  It has created two new foundations based on the Silk Creme. I had heard that the oil free version was the closest to the original formula, so that is the one I decided to pick up.

The Miracle Oil? New HG Product!

I dropped by my local Tau Market, an organic food store, where I wanted to pick up some more natural skincare items. My goal was to find a nighttime serum to replace my Ole Henriksen one, that I love, but can't always afford to repurchase.

The salesperson immediately suggested I try out this Nigella Oil. She said it has changed her skin for the better and that I will love it. I decided to buy it and see if this oil can possibly be as amazing as she claims.

Thailand Travel Tips

As I have mentioned in some previous posts, I went on vacation in May, to Thailand. Before leaving and while there I learned many things and picked up some tips and advice on how to travel around in that part of the world.

The total time I spent away was 16 days, including travel time, so there really wasn't much time.

We spent a few days in the capital, Bangkok, then headed south to the islands. I would love to go back some day and see the north of Thailand, but there just wasn't enough time on this trip to see everything.

Our vacation did not go smoothly the entire time. We did have fun, but there were times we wished we were elsewhere.

After all our adventures and misadventures in Thailand I figured putting together a tips and advice post would be helpful to anyone considering traveling in South East Asia.

Spring/Summer Nail Picks

My nails have been getting stronger and longer lately, mostly due to two things: biotin supplements and the warmer weather. I can do a whole other post later on about biotin, but for now let's take a look at so nail colours.

Another empties post, this time all about hair products I've used up or have decided I don't like or don't use enough to justify keeping them.

It's that time again, time to look into my trash! I've used up more products, and here are my thoughts on them.
