Winter beauty routine

December 21st 2016


Winter is coming! Time to adapt your beauty routine with super cocooning bodycare and pop make-up – the more grey and cold the weather get, the more funky products I feel like using. Not you? 
 
Let’s start with a winter must have. Hand cream! I seriously think that I am using at least 10 tubes every winter. Love having one different cream for every situation: next to my bed to moisturize my hands just before falling asleep, in the bathroom, in the kitchen, on my desk, in my bag … It’s fair to say that I’ve tested more than one brand over the year. My 2016-17 fav? The new hand cream line from Atelier Cologne. Riche and creamy texture that penetrates quickly and soften the hands with the very subtle but so particular scents of Atelier Cologne’s products … Love it!
 
But not just your hands need special care during those colder days. When it comes to nourishing my body I am definitely in love with the coco! But not just any coco, the WILD Virgin Coconut Oil from Coconut Matter. My fav use? A little coconut oil massage right after drying off from the shower … heavenly. I also love using it as an overnight hair-mask!
 
Speaking of hair, I got that kinda of obsession during winter. In summer, I love my hair natural and wavy and apart from shampoo and mask I pretty much don’t do anything. Therefore when comes winter I need to pay extra attention. I just discovered the INITIALS BB serie from BruneBlonde Salon at Grand Hyatt and I love it! Natural ingredients and natural essentials oils, just the kinda product I am trying to implement to my beauty routine. My absolute fav? The Leave-In Hydrating Mist Conditioner, a hydrating spray that is anti-frizz and prevents breakage and split ends. Shiny hair? Yes please!
And what better time than Christmas to try on some new glamourous hairstyle? Up-do or Bardot style, I need a little extra volume booster for my very thin hairs. And I thank the all new Russian Amber Imperial™ Roots Up! from PHILIP B! Nothing to do with your good old hair spray no worries. The formula is light and not sticky at all (nothing I hate more than sticky hairs), leaves your hair with a sexy volume and a nice smell (pure extracts of Chamomile, Comfrey, Rose Hip and Geranium). Georgous and sexy hair, I’m in!
 
And no that I got my perfect hairstyle, a little touch of make-up and I’ll be all ready for a night of festivities! This winter, I am all crazy about the super cute LIPSTICK QUEEN Frog Prince Collection! Pop and surprising. Take at that weirdo green Frog Prince Lipstick … no worries, that crazy emerald green transforms into a magical rosebud upon contact with the lips. According to the pH of your lips, the color will appear differently. Playful cosmetics, the kinda thing I fell for!   Also love the touch of shea butter that leaves the lips soft and hydrated. Also love the beautiful natural color of the Frog Prince Cream Blush. And the geal-cream texture! Divine! Once again, don’t be fooled by the green appearance. Apply it and discover the lovely rose-petal color.
 
I am telling you, this winter is going to be beautiful!
