REVIEW: Paul Mitchell Super Skinny Serum
I got this hair serum hoping it would make my hair: smooth, condition and seal hair strands wonders to make hair silky, shiny and frizz-free in any weather These statements are written on Paul Mitchell Super Skinny Serum’s web page. I generally don’t believe in “wonders” and I don’t like when companies promise “miracles”, but I couldn’t find anything better, so I bought this Paul Mitchell Super Skinny Serum. I have long, thin, very frizzy hair. Serums generally work better for thicker hair, but I really hoped it would do something for my hair. But after using it… I was like: Yeap. It did almost nothing. The frizz was still enormous. Also, after…

3500 Old Minoan Miniature – New Amazing Discovery
I was very excited to find about this new discovery made in 2017 in Pylos, Greece. It is a miniature in bronze. This is a recent sketch showing what the miniature depicts: The composition is amazing and the crafting is also very well done. There are little findings of this sort and it really shows that the ancients were very advanced. Usually we can find this type of craftsmanship and high-aesthetic works of art around 400 BC in Ancient Greece, but this one dates around 1500 BC!

A Cool Song I Wish I Knew About When I Was in Highschool
A few weeks ago a friend showed me this song. I was a little bit upset and I guess he, knowing that I like rock music, thought I might like it. And OMG, yes! I did love it! The song was released in 1990 by the Spanish rock band Héroes del Silencio. It is entitled “Entre dos tierras” and it means “Between two worlds”. The lyrics are a little bit ambiguous, but the point is you have to let bad stuff go (including persons…). Well, it is not really about the message. The song in itself, its melody, is heavenly… If I would have known about this band when I was…

Cool Summer Movie: Overboard (2018) – Romantic Comedy
[NO SPOILERS] I’ve just watched the movie Overboard and I can definitely say it is this summer’s movie. It is a romantic comedy, co-production of America and Mexic, with sun and sky and ocean, cool music, and great vibe. It is very sweet and funny and the actors are adorable. The plot is well written, high above your average script. I liked it very much, but when I read the reviews on Imdb I was a bit disappointed. Lots of people didn’t appreciate this movie because it is a remake of the 1987 Overboard movie. I didn’t watch the original movie, but I watched the trailer and I can surely say…

REVIEW: Rimmel London 60 Seconds – Does it work?
I am a big fan of Rimmel London nail polishes. They have beautiful colors, they are cheap and they don’t damage too much the nail and don’t chip easily. Rimmel London has a special type of nail polishes, called “60 Seconds” and I think another type called “60 Seconds Super Shine” but I am not sure if there is a difference between them or not. So, the real question here is: Does it really work? Do nails actually dry in 60 seconds? Well, yes and no. Mostly no. They dry in almost 60 seconds only the first time you open the bottle (right after you’ve bought it) and only if you’ve…

REVIEW: BIO LAVERA Deo Roll-on Bio-Orange
Since the point of reviews is to buy or avoid products based on what other people have experienced with them, I decided to make a new Category on my blog, based on the opinions of my friends. I do talk a lot about beauty products with my friends and I often buy something because they say it is good or I ditch a product because it was bad for one of my friends. So, this morning my friend Denise sent me a message saying that she never smelled so bad as she does with the Bio Lavera deodorant with orange fragrance 😷. She also sent me this photo with the…

Why is Nina Hagen so cool?
Nina Hagen is one of the most iconic female singers of all time. She has been ruling the punk scene for like 50 years. If you haven’t heard about her, here is she singing in one of her concerts: There are 2 things I particularly love about Nina Hagen: She is very original with her clothing style; She has kept her style over the years. She is also known for her outrageous behavior. For instance, here is Nina showing on Live TV how a woman can reach orgasm… I find it absolutely amazing and worthy of appreciation that she is the same person she was 40-50 years ago. Take a look…

REVIEW: LANCÔME HYPNÔSE Mascara… Worst mascara ever!
Since I have really sensitive eyes, I’ve always liked to invest in the best products that go near my eyes. Before buying this garbage mascara from Lancome, I had a really good one from Chanel. The problem with the Chanel one was that it didn’t really do much for my lashes, and since Lancome has such, but such good marketing and everyone was talking about how great this LANCÔME HYPNÔSE Mascara is… I decided to buy it and and give it a try. From the very beginning I didn’t like the brush. It is very hard and I had the feeling that it scratches my waterline. Also, with this kind of…

Serge Gainsbourg, Till Lindemann and Karl Lagerfeld – An interesting mix
1. Till Lindemann When I was a teenager I found about this band called Rammstein. Someone showed me a video of Engel and I instantly fell in love with the whole band’s aesthetics. I never really thought about its lead singer, Till Lindemann. I liked the band as a whole. When I was already a young adult and I saw for the first time live this band I started to like its lead singer. On stage, he possessed an incredible energy, he discharged so much power and he was definitely enchanting. Only then I started to really like him. 2. Karl Lagerfeld Ugh, I never really cared much about this guy,…

REVIEW: OPI Top Coat Vernis de Protection
I’ve been using the OPI Top Coat Vernis de Protection for about 6 years, so I might as well share my opinion about it. What they say it does: For a beautiful shining finish to your OPI manicure. The good side: The nails last really long. It really, but really, extends polish wear with no chips whatsoever for at least one week. The bottle doesn’t dry out. I don’t have time to use it every time I do my nails and, as you can see in my picture, I still have some product left and I’ve had this bottle for about 2 years. Some people complained on the internet that there…
