School Essentials

 School has started again after a long winter break.

I wanted to show you some school essentials, that might

come in handy. For me, this is quite a lot of stuff and I don't take

everything to school with me, but you might get some ideas.

So here they are!

I recently bought this purple travel mug and I have used it everyday. I love a warm 

cup of tea on cold winter mornings. It's from Bodum and it keeps my tea hot for at least 3 hours.

Don't keep it in your bag though, it might spill.

Mints are a must for me. I love the intense mint tic tacs, makes your breath

so fresh.

Here are my beauty and skin musts. Hand sanitizers are probably something

that you already have in your schoolbag. Mine is strawberry from the Body Shop and it

smells soooo good. If I had to choose one makeup product to take with me to school

I would pick a concealer for my dark under eye circles. I always get dark circles, no matter

how much I sleep. My favorite concealer is the wake me up concealer from Rimmel. It covers

my dark circles and it doesn't dry out my skin. I have done a little review of the Burt's bees

Lip balm and if you read it or tried the lip balm, you'll know how great it is. It's super moisturizing

and it smells like peppermint! Maybe it's just me, but I always need to have a nail file with me,

just in case if my nail splits, I hate when that happens! During winters I always carry a hand cream

because my hands tend to get pretty dry during winters. My favorite is from L'occitane and it works wonders.

I often wear my hair down, but sometimes my hair gets in the way and it can be

very annoying. I always have a hair elastic and bobby pins in my bag. I love scrunchies, because they

don't give you a headache and they are also so cute! I bought mine from Six.

I use my Ipad mini everyday in school. I use it to do projects and it's so much easier

than bringing a heavy laptop. I also use my planner everyday. I bought it in Amsterdam 

and I use it to plan my day, write down my homework and other important stuff. I don't

know what I would do if I didn't have my planner!

That's it for my school essentials, hope you enjoyed it!

Rimmel Kate Moss Lipstick 101

My favorite lipstick at the moment is the Rimmel Kate Moss Lipstick in 101.

It's the perfect everyday nude/pink shade. 

It's creamy so it doesn't matter if your lips are chapped, 

it will still look good on you. I usually apply a lip balm before I apply

the lipstick just to make sure the lipstick will look flawless.

It has a bit of shimmer but not too much, just the right amount.

Like I said the lipstick is perfect for a everyday makeup look

when you want to keep things natural. You can also use it when you

are going out and you want the focus on your eyes.

Maybe it's just me but I love the smell of Rimmel lipsticks.

It's not like a fruity smell or anything, it smells like a lipstick

sent from heaven! If you love lipsticks, you have to add this one

to your makeup collection.
