5 holy grail beauty products

Today we are sharing a selection of our all-time favorite beauty products, the kind of products that became our holy grail in term of skincare, makeup and beauty. Share with us some of your holy grail products so we can try them out ! ;)
The Garnier micellar water is amazing : a really small price, removes your makeup, cleans your skin and soothes it at the same time whilst hydrating it... What more to ask ? Seriously, we are obsessed with micellar water, there's really nothing better to remove your makeup gently !
If you're on the market for a dry shampoo, you have to try out the Batiste ones : already a legendary product, the Batiste dry shampoo comes in all sizes and scents, as well as new ranges specifically for colored-hair or for styling your hair with hot tools. We always really like to test out some of their new products, but for a good dry shampoo that simply does the job, we're sticking with the more all-day-everyday scents.
The Lip Lava liquid lipstick range by I ❤ MAKEUP is a very recent discovery but we're already obsessed with it : really easy to use packaging, amazing colors and staying power, enriched with vitamin E so it moisturizes your lips... The only thing we still need ? More colors !!!
Obviously, we couldn't forget to put Sunkissed moisture cream from Simple's Kind to Skin + range ! It has no artificial stuff in it, and great ingredients for the skin, and this Sunkissed one makes your face tan gradually, in a very natural way !
Still loving our Chanel Les 4 Ombres eyeshadows palette. We love their great pigmentation and texture and that you can use them dry, or wet, for more impact ! Obviously not drugstore price but a great investment palette for your makeup collection.

Videos Recap


Today, we wanted to share a few of our recent videos, so if you're not following us on our Youtube channel, make sure you do so you don't miss all the fun ! We try to film our monthly favorites but sometimes it's pretty hard, so before we did a Fall favorites :) we usually cover many of our interests such as beauty, fashion and culture. We always love to see random stuff in other people's videos.

We also just published our Youtuber / Blogger Clichés video, it was so much fun filming it and that's the kind of funny videos we like to watch. Finally, we really love trying out new things and we think it's a cool way to create some wishlists as short videos. We hope you like it :)

Schott NYC Flagship in Lausanne

On Thursday night, we were invited to the Schott NYC's flagship inauguration in Lausanne.
We knew the brand from a family friend obsessed with their Perfecto (because, yeah, the Perfecto is Schott's masterpiece and we all use the word far too much ;-) but we didn't know much more, so it was really amazing to be able to meet the Swiss and French/European team and hear their stories about the brand and their pieces of clothing. You can see pride in their eyes when they talk about Schott.

The store is quintessential NYC and the clothes are always reminding that now is really a good time to be a Rebel. We obviously love the original Perfecto created in 1928 and made famous in movies or worn by celebrities, but we also totally fall in love for their whole range, from the timeless designs that Schott provided for the US Army to the classical pieces like caban coats and bombers. 

Special mention for Schott's history of working on special collections with funky, original, emergent designers. Remember the Keith Haring Perfecto that Rihanna wore a few years ago ? Jeremy Scott for Schott (we want the same !). In the store, we had the chance to see three different collaborations : House of Holland, FFF and Les Artistes. As DIY lovers, we can't help but want all the pieces !

If you want to invest in a Perfecto, or find your perfect winter jacket, check out the new flagship store with its central location at Rue de l'Ale 26. Welcome in NYC ;-)

Let's get away from it all


Twenty years from now
you will be more disappointed
by the things you didn't do
than by the ones you did do.
So throw off the bowlines,
sail away from the safe harbor.
Catch the trade winds
in your sails.

EXPLORE
DREAM
DISCOVER

Winter is definitely here, and with that, low temperatures... It's really the perfect time for layering and finding great items that will keep you warm. I'm in love with this kind of navy plaid-coat from Primark, with its cool print, huge pockets and soft fabric, which despite the coat not having buttons or a zip, is the most awesome outerwear. I love that it's a statement piece without being too much in your eye ;)

You can't really see it, but I'm wearing a light grey jacket from New Yorker, with a tee from Primark. Black leggings, of course, and these are from Uniqlo and they are the x2 heat-up stuff that they sell and that is actually really working ! They are my favourites leggings ever :) White sneakers are from Zalando (Even&Odd), they are my go-to easy shoes... This scarf from La Halle is the bomb with such a soft fabric and perfect lenght.

Also, for the story, my bag, a brand-new from Primark (cool grey color and print texture, nice shape, I was pretty much in love) was used just a few days before taking these pictures, and the bag will rest in peace from that day on... The quality was great, for what I have used of it, but it got seriously damaged, due to my own inattention. I'm still sad for my bag, but at least I got these pictures to remember it ;-)
