Make-up: My Spring 2014 Routine

Make-up Routine-MAC-Photo Mademoiselle Le K-copyright 2014

I’m not crazy of make-up, but I’m changing ; )

As in fashion, I like the Less Is More attitude with a passion for nude, lipsticks and smoky eyes! And thanks to the M.A.C. Antonio Lopez collection, I discovered I liked the pink blush, yes, me! A HAPPINESS product that instantly illuminates the face and gives you good looks! This is my number one product of the first three months of 2014. And the packaging is awesome too! I add to set makeup or refresh the face, the incredible Eau de Beauté of Caudalie I don’t get tired!

My good mood must have for day and night, I’m a huge fan!

My sister was the first to talk to me about the Clinic Chubby Sticks. I immediately liked the texture of those large crayons, which is more lightweight and comfortable than traditional lipsticks and silkier and less sticky than gloss. And I also liked the greedy colors: 14 Curvy Candy (1.) I apply before or after 11 Two Ton Tomato (2.), to give a more iridescent hue or bright red. I rarely put the one without the other and in any case, I always start with the Kiehl’s Lip Balm # 1 (3.) to nourish and soften my lips.

Awesome duo for an ultra glam result! 

Ah! Tom, yes Tom Ford, with your Diva packaging, you are fast becoming the must have of my parties! A “Lip Color lipstick” RED RED, 10 Cherry Lush (1.): Femininity, elegance … with a touch of je ne sais quoi: Lab Shine, the “glittery” gloss of Make Up For Ever that I apply after the 10 Cherry Lush. And I don’t care if it’s the trend or not!

Far-far from pro make-up artists!

L’Intensifying Long Wear Mascara de Bobbi Brown (1.) lengthens lashes one by one, while giving a very natural look. It is also very (too) strong to remove! Daytime I prefer the slightly iridescent brown of L’Oréal Paris Color Appeal Trio Pro (2.). Occasionally a line of eyeliner to highlight the lashes with the Super Liner Perfect Slim of L’Oréal Paris (3.). It’s a kind of  fine-tipped paintbrush, very easy to apply which makes me forget the black pencil! This winter I finally used the Bronzing Powder Golden Light 1 of Bobby Brown (4.) in very very light way (before applying my M.A.C. pink blush). Picture below, the Estée Lauder Cyber Lilac eyeshadow I mostly use to make great smocky eyes. Lovely object that I slip in my makeup kit with pleasure.

Aspria Avenue Louise: My Muscle Awakening!

Mademoiselle Le K-Aspria-Louise-Day-3-Aerotonic-Swimming-Pool-Hammam-Sauna

Ages since I haven’t done any sport

A few days after my Shiatsu massage, I go to the locker room (picture 3). When I arrive at the studio (picture 1), I’m 5 minutes late and the famous Aerotonique session has already started! Azziz replaces David which is the usual coach. Honestly when Antoine Houssière, the Well-Being Manager of the Aspria Avenue Louise offered me this group course, I didn’t really understand (or try to understand) what it was! I just kept in mind it was dynamic!    

From the beginning, I jump and steps to-side-behind-acceleration… very rhythmic cardio! Everyone follows, at first I had trouble to coordinate sequences. When we started to use the ball and the carpet, I understood it’s going to hurt! I can’t exercise such as pumps on one arm (frankly, what an idea! LOL!). But I try, I try everything! Occasionally Azziz checks and corrects our postures. His good humor is contagious and motivating.    

At the end of the course I recognize some moves borrowed from the Sun Salutation (Yoga, Tai Chi). I’m extremely tired and sweating, but smiling! I decide to go for a swim in the pool to soothe muscles, plus a bit of hammam, sauna and jacuzzi (picture 2). Then I go straight to bed, yes! The next day, aches all over my body but I “manage” them (LOL!). And the day after that, the aches are more painful. Even laughing hurts my abs, but I feel more positive and highly recommend this trainning! Conclusion I had to postpone my individual coaching session! To be continued …

I Tested The Slimming Massage of Martine de Richeville

Last year reading a slimming article (oops!), I discovered the method of Martine de Richeville that sculpts the body by working on the fatty tissue. I was quite intrigued. And whenI was offered to experience a massage by Martine Richeville itself two days ago: I said ok without really knowing what  expecting. A journalist warned me that it would be “a little” painful (LOL)! Never mind, I’m addicted to Thai and Chinese massages, which are absolutely not pleasant!                  

 When I arrive, a huge red sumo welcomes me, the perfect metaphor for the perception I have of my body now (Ok I’m over exaggerating!). The session begins with a vigorous belly massage (deep kneading and pinching). Very painful! The work on certain organs makes me sweat in less than 5 minutes! As a consolation, I focus on the Louboutin shoes of my therapist, a really chic massage! But that does not detract from the fact the massage is painful. Gradually the pain subsides. The outside of the arms received the same treatment. After being on the back, it was the turn of each side, then the back and the neck. The whole body.                          

Martine Richeville explains that this work on the fatty tissue she’s practiced for 15 years, allows to empty toxins and sculpt the body as the “dough”. Suddently I have a flash: the sumo dude’s belly at the entrance (LOL)! On leaving I feel slightly euphoric, completely soft and relaxed, with the huge desire to  sleep ( good point). Two days later, I still have some body parts that hurt a bit, as after the first sessions of resumption of sport. Not really aches, rather the awakening of some muscles that I never work! Even if I do not see any change on my silhouette in a session, I feel that my body is released and “unlocked” and I have less appetite. Such an interesting experience!
