One of the things I don’t get: why is it so hard to find our favorite products in mini versions??

Vichy released this mini me version of Essentielles, a powerful moisturizer (I always use it before going to bed!), and, therefore, made my life easier when I need to pack… This is a hand cream from the same line, but I end up taking only the little one on my suitcase and I get around fine with it when I’m staying out for a short period of time…
Every time I travel abroad I spend hours at the drugstore’s miniature section (Duane Reade, in NY, is my favorite one!), since it’s so hard to find them in Brazil. It’s such a simple idea, so why don’t people do it, I wonder???

There are some things you can only do when you’re a blogger. Like playing with lots of jewelry releases, mixing them all! Lol! I had never felt so comfortable at a jewelry store! Do you remember last week’s look? Besides the rings I wore that night, others that are Vivara’s new releases were with me for a while, take a look:

Do you remember the tattoo I got with my sister? It’s a rose =) Actually, two, to symbolize our grandparents (they are at a hard place to photograph! But you can see them below, in the day that we got them, they even are little bruised, lol!):

It was so nice to get it with her and I love to look at it and remember my family. Reading the rose line release about roses being the symbol of love only made me happier! And really, it’s a gift idea! Lol! Maybe it works, right?

PS: I Love the new F*Hits vignette!! Such a cute animation that reminds me of the opening of the TV show “The Nanny”, did anyone used to watch it??

Oh, I’ve started being mean, haven’t I? But I swear I’m only following chronologic order here, lol! Last weekend I remembered how much I love to cook… I spent a wonderful Saturday h=getting things ready for dinner and the dessert is pictured below: Nutella Cheesecake!! I got the recipe at Gui’s blog, and it’s a very easy one too!

I went to São Paulo last Tuesday and although I always complain that BH’s airport is too far away (It usually takes me less time between BH and SP than between my house and the airport…), I LOVE Confins. I love its architecture!!! I’m always happy to visit the building.

During the flight I was reading Gol magazine, which is always great, do you like it as well? There was a profile on Mallu Magalhães, with wonderful pictures and a Nice interview, but what I liked the most was this quote from her. It could have been me!

One of the events in Sampa (do you get distressed by those who say Sampa? Lol!) was Eudora’s new release, and I asked Lavoisier, the brand’s official makeup artist to teach us in a video how to apply red lipstick perfectly! You can see he knows what he’s talking about, right? Lol! As soon as it’s approved, I’ll post it here.

With all this travelling around, I end up reminding myself all the time that I’m mineira. People really notice the accent, and I’ve been told before that mine is not even that strong, lol! But I love my “mineirices”, and this napkin was on a table (lol, see? Mineral!!) at the bar where one of my friends celebrated his birthday. And we really speak like that!!

And the high point of the week: I finally went to get my diploma!!! It only took me three and a half years, good, right? Lol!!! But it was a little emotional to see my name on paper… In fact, it was very pleasant to go back to UEMG after all this time! Better yet was reminding myself that I no longer have to wake up early every day to go all the way there!!! Students suffer, don’t they?

We might be afraid to take risks with colors, or feel too lazy to do our skin every day, but there is no denying that taking a little extra care to apply mascara is well worth the time, is there? And in moments of celebration, why not go with fake lashes??
