SMALL STUFF

About two weeks ago,I had one of those very sad days when something or someone makes you so desperate that all you wish for is the comfort of your home,some cocoa and possibly a good movie on the TV.At least that is what makes me feel better when I get in such a melancholic mood.

However,on that day I was right in the centre of the city and thus too far away from my home,so that the idea of me going first to my house seemed at that moment like too big of a job.I needed a quick fix for my sadness and so I decided I will go to Sephora and buy me some pretty little things.How wonderful it was going through all those cosmetics and parfumes!In a moment I flew in another world and in an instant I felt happier - and more optimistic about the situation that made me sad in the first place.

Here is what I bought: VOLUPTE' SHEER CANDY in number 1 (lush coconut) by YSL (24,90 €) and STAR POWDER in number 920 by MUFE (19,00 €).

What looks like a lipstick is more of a glossy balm (that's also written on the package) and it does not give you any strong color,but a nice and very moisturizing sheen.You could call it a deluxe lip balm :o)!

The pigment / eyeshadow on the other hand is very pigmented and of such a beautiful yellow / gold color.It has been for a really long time that I was in search of a yellow eyeshadow,because I saw some make-up tutorials using such a color and I really liked the different looks.I am looking forward to recreate some of those looks.I like so much the color of this pigment that sometimes I just open the little pot and look at it in amazement :o)!

Kiss,kiss...

(Bible) Luke 12:13-21

13 And one out of the multitude said unto him, Teacher, bid my brother divide the inheritance with me.
14 But he said unto him, Man, who made me a judge or a divider over you?
15 And he said unto them, Take heed, and keep yourselves from all covetousness: for a man's life consisteth not in the abundance of the things which he possesseth.
16 And he spake a parable unto them, saying, The ground of a certain rich man brought forth plentifully:
17 and he reasoned within himself, saying, What shall I do, because I have not where to bestow my fruits?
18 And he said, This will I do: I will pull down my barns, and build greater; and there will I bestow all my grain and my goods.
19 And I will say to my soul, Soul, thou hast much goods laid up for many years; take thine ease, eat, drink, be merry.
20 But God said unto him, Thou foolish one, this night is thy soul required of thee; and the things which thou hast prepared, whose shall they be?
21 So is he that layeth up treasure for himself, and is not rich toward God.

(Quran) Sura 2 - Al-Baqara (MADINA) : Verse 280 And if the debtor is in a hard time (has no money), then grant him time till it is easy for him to repay, but if you remit it by way of charity, that is better for you if you did but know.
