New Routine...

I actually wasn't planning on writing a post today but I guess blogging has in a way contaminated my brain to the point where it really is hard to resist getting on the computer whenever I have a bit of free time.

Last Sunday I brought you my makeup routine which was kind of fun to do. This past week was pretty much the same so it would be redundant to repeat but do know I have a few good reviews in the works. I just have to figure out a way to take pictures. Thanks to Fee from Makeup Savvy who gave me great tips recently, I just might be able to pull it off without any sun. It is cloudy today and there seems to be snow in the air. So far we've pretty lucky at avoiding the white stuff but there's no getting around it, it'll come!

Gloves and boots shopping this week!

For my first two weeks on my new job I was working from 8:00 to 4:00 but this week the schedule will be 10:00 to 6:00. Two hours more in the morning! This will indeed be great but the downside will be evening meals. I've prepared a few things to be heated up so there will be as little cooking as possible but now Catherine will have to pitch in and set up before I get home which should be around 6:45.

Let's hope she doesn't burn the house down!


Here are some of the reviews I have coming up soon...




Sorry if this looks a bit crowded. These are some of the new goodies I got to play with recently and there is not one disappointing product in the bunch!

I also received several fragrance samples that I'll be enjoying so hopefully I'll be able to review those as well. One of the samples is Coco Mademoiselle the Eau de Parfum. I was quite thrilled for these are pretty hard to come by. Years ago I wore Coco Le Parfum and it remains one of my favorite fragrances ever. I have tried Coco Mademoiselle in the past but wasn't impressed by it, like something was missing. Now that was years ago so why not give it another go! I wore it twice this week and, well, I LOVE it!!!


For your viewing enjoyment...

I thought it would be fun to stay with Chanel and show you this video about two legends, N° 5 and Marilyn.




So the weekend is almost over already! I'm definitely going to have to work on that "less time" thing!


Have a great week everyone! Hélène xoxo

Yay, I'm glad to hear you're digging Coco Mademoiselle! That's definitely my favorite Chanel fragrance! Great for two more hours in the morning as well. You won't have to wake up at 5!

Getting up at 7:00 will definitely be more pleasant as it's my normal time. You know Sunny, at the time I tried Coco Mademoiselle I still had Coco Le Parfum so I guess that's why I didn't get into it but now it's been so long, I see it as a nice reminder of my old favorite. :)

I've only tried them once Melissa, I'll probably use them again tomorrow and post before the end of the week. :)

oh! Wow - can't wait to hear about those Revlon shadows!!! I have always been disappointed by Revlon shadows so if these ones are better, I'd love to try them - love the idea of being able to pick your own shades and make a palette!!

So far Linda I can tell you that not all colors are created equal. I'll try to post my review tomorrow night if time permits. :)
