Eau de Beauté by Caudalie L'wren Scott limited edition

The beauty secrets are like chimera that every woman chases during her whole life. Some of them are ephemeral and useless but lot of them have their roots in ancient time where the care of the spirit and of the body were the most important things in life.
Egyptian were famous for their particular make-up, oil and cream while in Hungary Queen Isabella used a precious serum as youth elixir that allowed her to marry Poland king, more than 30 years younger than her.
In 1996, Mathilde Thomas, head and heart of Caudalie Paris, and dermatologist doctor Hertzog, who found in a book the original recipe of the elixir used by Queen Isabella, decided to give new life to the old formula and made it more current. So l'Eau de Beauté by Caudalie, inspired by a woman for women, became soon the beloved product of celebrities, designers and models who use it during day and night as make-up fixative and also to illuminate skin, to shrink pores and to refine lines.
The ingredients of this miraculous elixir are myrrh, rosemary essential oils, benzoino, lemon balm, peppermint, orange blossom, rose and grapes pulp so the result is a 99.4% natural beauty water.
For this year the famous ex-model and now designer L'wren Scott has created the new packaging of the bottle in limited edition, very essential and classy.
I tried it for long time and I can highly reccomend it to you because every time that I need to give a lashing of freshness and energy to my skin I vaporize it on my face and immediately skin is so relaxing, bright and soft at touch like the baby one.
I'm so happy to have found Eau de Beauté, it is the perfect ally for the wellness of my skin and of yours.

Hello lovelies
what happened when a glorious stylist as Christian Lacroix meets the party brand for excellence like Desigual? A particular and eye-catching collection takes life and the classic and eternal black and white combo has a new perspective with a modern touch given by the squared prints.
The coat and the dress seem like a unique garment, the print is continuing and this suit is very elegant but with a very innovative taste.
Christian Lacroix, with his essential talent, has created very sophisticated collections for the Spanish brand and I'm totally in love with them... I saw a preview of the Spring/Summer 2014 and believe me when I say that you'll appreciate every single cloth.
Felicia, the Onassis&Co bag, is became my new best friend and I can't separate myself from her precious leather and shape.
Hope that you will like it, let me know what you think!

Sex, Fun & Love by Desigual

Hello beauties

how was your week-end going? Hope everything relaxing and happy.

Some of you already know that I have a big passion for fragrances and today I wanna write you about my latest addiction... The Desigual triptyque Sex, Fun & Love.

They come in a box similar to the take-away one and you open it... the experience begins and you are ready to take as yours the famous Desigual motto La Vida Es Chula!

The bottle is very hypnotic and psychedelic, with large colorful round circles that converge in the middle with the name of the fragrance that is the real essence. The top of the bottle is the real strong point of the package because is made with a patchwork fabric and realized in a particular way that allows to obtain every time a different cut so every bottle is unique.

"You don't emanate scent. You are in every air molecule. Hot, intense, provocative." studied by Daphne Bugey's nose, Sex is strong like red fruits mixed with rhubarb and soy, with hearts notes of tuberose, Sambac jasmine and grapefruit flowers and closed the fragrance note of woods, vanilla and musks.

"Here is the fragrance of happiness. Joyful, vital and soft." Fun was created by Christophe Raynaud, the Passion flower embraces notes of peony and violet with red blueberry, Nashi pear, white peach, sandal wood and Teak.

"Have anyone ever told you that you that you taste like a kiss? Juicy, sweet and tender." created by Fabrice Pellegrin, Love is a soft caress that immerses its roots in red blueberry and black currant, with heart notes of grapefruit, benzonio and orange-flower and as bottom notes praline, sandal and tonka fava bean.

My favourite one is Sex because I love intense and long lasting fragrance but I must say that all of them are very captivating and perfect for all seasons.

Did you ever smell them? Which is your favourite one?

Look of the day: You are gonna hear me Roar

Hello beauties
finally it's Friday and I'm more than happy that week-end is just around the corner because tomorrow I'll make an important shooting and can't wait to show you everything next week <3
Lot of you already know that I have a big passion for new designers who put all their effort and passion in what they do and for me is a big pleasure to introduce you to two of the most talented ones that we have here in Italy... Twisty Parallel Universe , a new view of a fragmented and variegated universe where the world explode and let half-view its own "I" overturned, and Giancarlo Petriglia, winner of Who is Next 2012 with his precious bags. I'm totally impressed by the pure design of the dress with dinosaurs and people and the perfection of the bag in every single detail.
A tribute to undisputed talents, to hystrionic genius and to the strenght of never giving up. 
Follow your dream.

Hello beauties
with this cold weather the most beautiful thing is to stay cozy and warm, maybe watching an old black and white movie sipping some hot tea under a duvet.
But... we must work so the most important thing is to find some clothes or accessories that are like a cuddle for ourselves also outside home :)
I found my special ones with Onassis&Co Felicia bag, so sophisticated and versatile with exquisite materials, and the glam-rock coat by LEROCK, that is double-face and very precious.
Hope that you will like it, let me know what you think!

October My Beauty Box

Hello beauties
cold is finally here and now more than ever we must preserve our skin from the bad weather and we should treat ourselves with something good.
The October edition of My Beauty Box is all dedicated to the five senses, to positivity and to the wellness of the person.
I found five interesting products on the inside that I'm already testing and now I wanna write you something about them and my first impressions!

Nuxe Nuxellance Jeunesse: after years of researches on mitochondrion and mitochondrial DNA, Nuxe launched, with ten licenses, this extraordinary anti-age fluid cream with extracts of passion flower, poppy and alcanna, that repairs the mitochondrial DNA revealing skin youth and brightness. Recommended, after days of use my skin is more soft at touch and optically relaxed.
EuPhidra Fard All Over Linea Chromie: this fard is composed by 9 little inlays in a unique box and can be used on face and eyes, dry or wet. The final result is really bright, pearly and soft. Recommended, I love the delicate texture and the shades perfect for my rosy complexion.
GCUBE Total Green Hydra Mask: for delicate hair, this hydrating mask is composed by ingredients obtained from plants and aloe with no parabens. It leaves hair soft and fluffy.
PIRAM Hand cream: ideal for cold weather, this hand cream with honey is perfect for dry, wrinkled and chapped hand, giving them a silky and soft appearance.
E.L.F. Cosmetics Duo Eyeshadow: this duo eyeshadow can be used mixing the colors or individually, very intense and brilliant. Mine is gold and brown and I really like it.

Did you ever tried any of these products? Which is your favourite?

Hello beauties
the cold is finally arrived here and it's time to take out all the coats from the wardrobe!
As English ladies do, on Sunday I went with a friend of mine to have a hot tea with some sweets and I wore for the first time my two new favorites babes :)
I truly adore the cozy and so warm coat by Manila Grace, I like the faux fur details on the front side and the wool checked print on the backside because they make it very particular and special. And that bag... The glamorous Felicia by Onassis&Co ( you can see the Eternelle model here ) is a precious and elegant bag with the perfect and eternal shap, ideal to be used in every occasion from the most informal to the most important one. In this period a bag should be an investment, and Felicia is definetely one of them under all the points of view.
Hope that you will like it, let me know what you think!
