Review // Dr. Hauschka Eyeshadow Palette 01

DrHauschkaEyeshadowPalette2
"Four matte shades of brown and grey enhance the natural beauty of your eyes, allowing for a combination of elegant looks that take eyes from day to night, Silk powder offers pH balancing and protective qualities."

Dr. Hauschka has always been a 'familiar yet still unfamiliar' brand for me. I've heard about it from time to time when I was undergoing treatment for my skin, since it's known to be a great brand for sensitive skin, but I never got around testing it. Which is probably also why I didn't know they have cosmetics at well. When I received some goodies to try, I was more than happy to find out more about the Dr. Hauschka Eyeshadow Palette 01. My eyes are super sensitive and I wear contacts, so it was time to put Dr. Hauschka's philosophy to the test.

Personal // Identity Theft & How I Dealt With It

IMG_1199
For the second time in a year, someone has used my pictures to create a fake account on Facebook. I usually don't get bothered by these things - I just make sure that it all gets deleted - but this time, he / she also used pictures of my family and I; which is just too much for me to handle. I'm not sure if using someone else's pictures counts as identity theft, but it definitely felt like that for me. That's why I decided to write this blogpost: to share my stories with you and how I dealt with it. Please note that this has only happened to me on Facebook, so I'm not familiar with this on other social media channels.

Review // Narciso Rodriguez 'For Her' Eau De Toilette

ForHer7
"A modern classic, for her seduces with purity, grace and subtlety. Musk, the heart of the scent, is refined by a synthesis of floral notes and hints of soft amber. Sensual and addictive, for her is femininity at its most powerful."

After being hooked on Miss Dior Chérie for years and switching to Giorgio Armani's Si afterwards, I have a new favorite in my perfume stash: Narciso Rodriguez 'For Her' Eau De Toilette. During my stay in Italy, my parents and I met up with some friends and one of the ladies was wearing this fragrance. My mom and I were completely hooked and got it as soon as we got to the airport.  I've gotten quite some compliments about it already as well.

I love to discover hidden gems in all kind of categories and it's even better when these gems are close to home. Thanks to Relaxy, I had the chance to spend the afternoon at Jepun Traditional Spa in Genk, which is a 20 minute drive from where I live. Relaxy is an online database where you can find the best wellness centers in Belgium. You can search the best options by selecting a certain location, treatment or arrangement of your choice and you can also book via Relaxy immediately. They also offer all kind of deals and last-minute arrangements, which is always a plus.

Relaxy was kind enough to offer Dario and I a wonderful afternoon at Jepun Traditional Spa. We got the best aromatherapy massage known to mankind and got to relax another 3 hours in their private spa. You can find the arrangement here. Curious to find out more? Click below to read my recap of the day!

Personal // Instagram & Snapchat July 2015

InstagramJuly1
As you may have noticed, it's been a bit silent here for the past month. I decided to take a small break to clear my mind and figure out on where I want to go with my blog. I spent tons of time with family and friends and combined it brainstorming sessions as well. It was perfect to recharge my batteries and I'm full of inspiration and new ideas now.

You can have a sneak peek into my personal life on Instagram and Snapchat; my username on both is Krizia_S. Find some of my favorite pictures and moments of the month of July below.
