Polished Polyglot

Hello, my lovelies!

How are you today? I hope you had a great week so far and that you are safe and healthy. Today I decided to join my colleagues of the "When Colours Collide" challenge. This week's prompt is "Black, red and orange" and I used some OPI and MoYou London colours for this nail art. I hope you like it!

Early this year, before the Covid-19 Pandemic exploded in our faces, I had a few things I wanted to do in 2020. One of them was starting a new hobby with Happy Planners If you are not familiar with the Happy Planner as a brand, this is a system of planner that allows you to customize and decorate a planer as you'd do a scrapbook, a planner and a journal all in one. The possibilities are endless! That's not only good to boost my creativity, it is also an activity that I find soothing and extremely rewarding and satisfying. Keep reading to learn why!

Do you often find yourself hesitating on your outfit? Do you have the impression you have nothing to wear although your wardrobe is actually full of clothes? Who hasn't been there!! If you'd like vary your outfits, try new looks daily, or simply rotate a large variety of clothes, this post is for you! If you can't makeup your mind in the morning, try different things without success and end up wearing always the same pair of jeans, this post is also for you!!
The quarantine period offers us a perfect occasion to get organised and come up with a definitive solution to our outfit problems and hesitations. You'll save so much time choosing your outfit and dressing up every morning! Do this trick now, thank me later!!

Living our 45th day of social distancing here! what about you?
The pandemic emergency is a trying experience, we all know that. The lockdown and social distancing can cause different levels of stress at home, we need to adapt, cede, reorganize and re-significate our spaces, ocupation and schedules. All of which generates multiple sources of stress for every member of the family and can end up being very demotivating.
When the lockdown started in Switzerland I was determined to make everything work, I had a plan, a schedule and I was highly motivated to keep everything going on while we #stayhome. Then Easter came and School Springbreak started and my motivation VANISHED, literally. What happened? Why? How do I regain that motivation? If anything like this happened to you, then you might want to read what follows, because I  have some tips and reflections for you on how to keep or regain a good level of motivation during the Coronavirus pandemic.

Hello, lovelies! Happy Monday!
On our 38th day of social distancing, chances are many of us feel very stressed out. If anything, the uncertainty of when things will be back to normal or even what will happen when we go back to normal, is definitely something causing much worry for many of us. We are enduring all sort of problems, economical, emotional, mental, etc.
My mood during this coronavirus emergency has been up and down. I sometimes feel very positive and sometimes I'm totally overwhelmed. When the latter is the case, I tend to cumulate a lot of stress and I'm not always successful to release my stress out. What has worked best for me so far, has been working out and also doing a relaxing activity.
So I thought I could bring my little grain of sand, offering a couple of ideas from my domain, which is beauty and cosmetics to help ease a bit the stress and make it easier to relax. Keep reading to find out how I use skincare and cosmetic to help me relax!

Hello, my lovelies! Happy Monday!

I am thrilled to announce the new Neo-pearl Collection by OPI* for Spring 2020 that will be launching at the end of April 2020!

Keep reading to find out what each colour looks like on the nails and what was my experience applying and wearing six of the twelve new nail polishes. ♥♥♥

Hello, lovelies! Happy Monday!
We are heading right into Easter and I can't believe it. The time passes too quickly! I have the impression Mardi Gras was just yesterday. Some people find the lockdown or social distancing are giving them the impression of super long days. In my case, I feel I have not enough time! More precisely, not enough "ME" time.
Kids are 24/7 at home, demanding, attention, food, etc. It's like having three newborns again! hahaha. I try to be positive but I do miss to take time just for me. When I work out, they are there, when I'm taking a shower, they are there; when I'm trying to take care of my skin/hair, they are there! If you are an old visitor, you know how much I love playing with makeup and doing bold looks. These days when I'm not leaving the house, I don't do my makeup anymore, but I really miss it. So, last week I decided I was going to create a look just for FUN, I grabbed my BH Cosmetics Zodiac LOVE SIGNS* palette to create a look in Orange and gold for the Monday Shadow Challenge and I am so happy I did. I hope you like it!

Hello, my lovelies! Happy Thursday!
