A photography tip for beauty bloggers...

Hello lovers,
Today I want to show you what I do to not get light reflexion or too much flash on the beauty products that I want to review for my blog.
I am pretty sure everyone have experimented the "strong flash problem" (I am talking to point and shoot owners only lol), which won't let you take a correct close up picture of a simple lipstick without making everything WHITE!
(just like this terrible picture lol)

To fix this "problem" I cover the flash with a white tissue (Kleenex for example), this technic will help diffuse the light and will brighten the product without washing it out.

...My camera With the tissue lol (you have to be careful while you take the picture to not put your fingers on the flash or your picture will be Orange !)

Et Voilà !

(by the way this Chanel quad isn't very good :not pigmented enough and very dusty)
I hope all I said made sense and if it didn't you have the pictures lol...Hopefully it will be helpful for some of you.

Muah...

FOTN and My favorite ELF product : The Healthy Glow Bronzing Powder " in Luminance

Hello everyone,
Today I am going to talk about my favorite E.L.F product, the "Healthy Glow Bronzing Powder" in Luminance.
I am a BIG fan of highlighters, I can't resist them! At first I was a little bit skeptical about this one from E.L.F because I have tried many products of their $1 line and wasn't very impressed. But this powder is FABULOUS it's Glowing!!!! For all the girls that don't like shimmery highlighters this one is for you, the texture is rich, maybe a little bit too powdery (I mean VERY POWDERY lol) but it works FANTASTIC it's the perfect glowing light gold and I am pretty sure it suits wonderfully any skin tone.

Here is the FOTN I did on Saturday.

Cheeks : Mac Gleeful + E.L.F healthy glow Luminance
Lips : Victoria's Secrets VERY SEXY lipgloss in Wet



See how "Glowy" and healthy it is...


Very Rich and soft texture.

OOTD + Gorillapod = Not BAd at all !

Hello Everyone^^,
It's been so long since I posted my last OOTD/OOTN, it was just too cold outside, I have seen some very courageous girls posing in the snow lol I just couldn't and to be honest showing you all my "Outfit of the Day' wearing sweatshirts and UGGs would have been a little bit boring for you and I care about you (lol).

I am the kind of girl who HATES wearing pullover, sweatshirts, and everything BIG under a coat, (they make me look so FAT lol) I rather buy BIG coats and be normally dressed under them lol...





Coat : FAUX FUR coat from H&M
Top: ZARA
Leggings: ZARA
Leather Boots : NewLook

"The Photographer"

ps: Thank you to all the ladies, who tagged me these last few days, it means so much to me....

Not an Orgasm...A super Orgasm (NARS Blush)

Hello everyone!
I am sorry for the lack of posts, I went swimming on Friday and I am sick since then =( lol, but today I am starting to feel a little bit better=).
I wanted to show you my last (tiny) Sephora's haul ; The Renewal Lash Serum from L'Oréal and the Fabulous SUPER ORGASM from NARS ( I hope adSense won't use the word "Orgasm" as a keyword for adds on my page lol Kate Gene this one is for you lol).

The l'Oréal Lash serum is supposed to fortified the lashes and I like the idea of taking care of my lashes,
the wand has no bristles and it makes the application very EASY, it dries very quickly and is made for sensitive eyes !


The NARS Super Orgasm is So pretty I am not a fan of the Orgasm cause I don't find it pigmented enough on me and to be honest I couldn't resist the giant GOLD shimmer of the Super Orgasm's one lol.



To me it's a salmon color with Gold shimmer it's Gorgeous! Isn't it?

I wanted to do a FOTD wearing it but I am feeling too miserable, Hopefully I will be better tomorrow =)

PS: I am on Formspring too now ask me whatever you want =)
Muah,
Chloé.
