There’s a little discovery I want to show you: it’s the strawberry and guava body spray from the Avon Naturals line. I’ve loved this scent since the first time I smelled this fruits combination and I think it can be a nice substitute for eau de toilette and other perfumes during spring and summer.This body spray has nice, fruity and sweet notes, it starts with a predominant strawberry note with just a hint of the exotic scent given by the guava.

Fuchsia eyeliner? Why not with this First Lady eyeshadow?

I increasingly often use a bright fuchsia in my make-up looks. The one I’m using at the moment is a baked eyeshadow from the Beauty Group’s new line called First Lady. It isn’t sold outside Italy but if you’re curious, you can find the full review with more pictures here (Italian article). It’s the n°8 (Skinkifra) eyeshadow and it can be worn both wet or dry. To create my eyeliner, I take a bit of…
