One of our Belgian prides, model Hannelore Knuts, starred in a video called ‘Natural Beauty’. This is a video made by artistic duo Lernert and Sander. In the video, Hannelore gets a total of 365 layers of make up on! This is an experiment to show how you can change a natural look into a shocking result. You’ll see the make-up dripping off by the end of the video. Not a pleasant face to look at I must say!

Who wears short shorts? I wear short shorts! And you’ll probably too this summer.
This summer is all about shorts in all sorts of fabrics, colors and styles. Let’s all hope the sun will hit us hard the next couple of months, so we can all show off our gourgeous legs. You don’t have to be a stick figure to wear shorts. If your legs are toned and firm, you’ll pull them off fors ure. Not quite catching the summer tan? No problemo, just put ons ome fake tan. But be careful with that, you don’t want end up with stained or orange legs. Moderation is key.
So back to the shorts. I allready have my favorites for the summer arranged in my closet.
Nail polishes, they have been around for a while now (thank you Chanel!) This summer you can even take it a step further than last season. No color = no game
By now we can all agree that neon is a top of the list trend for this summer. This also translates onto our nails ladies! There’s no color left behind. You name it, you paint it.
My last nail polish purchase was a bright blue one by O.P.I. and the well known Mimosa, or yellow for the non-believers, by Chanel.
Yeah, we’re back in business! I recently went to Portugal with school and I must say I liked it more than I expected :-). Don’t get me wrong, the weather was the one thing that appealed to me the most.. But that’s by far the only thing that disappointed me over there. We had so much rain over there! You can’t imagine..
Anyway we got to know a lot of people from different countries and one of the girls introduced me to Polyvore. Now you may think, yeah uhu tell me something new.. Well I’ll give you that, I’m a bit late to jump on the Polyvore train. But hey, they always say better late than never! They say it in Belgium though, don’t know if it’s a global saying.
So you can imagine, the first account I made when I got back was my first official Polyvore account and I must say I was a bit astonished! Not a lot of ONLY stuff you can find there… or maybe it’s just my research skills? And I must say the new ONLY collection is soooo beautiful! One of my favourites so far! Here’s one of the campaign images I like the most.
The last few months I changed from a beauty nitwit to an absolute beauty lover! Some great products can make you look so much better with only a few dots here and there. Don’t get me wrong, beauty lover doesn’t mean I walk around like a painter’s canvas. I’m always going for the natural look, only with a little help from my supply box ;-).
First of all, make sure you have a good base. This means you’ll have to have a good day cream that suits your skin perfectly. It may take a while ‘till you find the perfect one, but it will be all worth it in the end. The easiest (and cheapest) way is to go to your beauty store and ask for some samples so you can try them out first before buying them.
The one I use, this must be my lucky fourth, is Normaderm by Vichy.
