I went to the Eiffel Tower today (to film the third installment of the Walk With Me series on my YouTube channel) and a tourist from Eritrea asked me if I could take his picture — and if I were Brazilian.
I get that A LOT, like 80% of the time. Do I honestly look Brazilian though?

My Drugstore Haul day didn’t go quite as planned… But I regret nothing! 😀
Also, please forgive the autofocus going wonky from time to time. I’ll fix this next time, promise!
If you want the promo code for sephora.fr (only if you live in France), then let me know.
All these products (with the exception of the palette) will be featured on the “REVIEW: Chopping Block 2” video, which will happen in 2-3 weeks at the least (or as soon as I’ve fully tried and tested them all). On top of that, I’ll also be making separate first impressions / reviews on a few of these products as well.

Enjoy!

Ça y est. I’m unemployed yet again.
I just got back from meeting with the parents of the little kid I babysat. Because of the problems regarding the agency who employed me (for a little backstory, click here), I had to give back the keys to their apartment and quit. I just couldn’t go on working without getting paid, or at least not know when I would get paid (if even that).
Also, the parents have done a little digging and they’ve out found out that the babysitting agency has now been put up for sale online for 40,000€ and closed without informing anybody. Not the parents, not the babysitters, not even their interns. Des arnaques, quoi.
Fortunately, the parents have told me that they would give me a call as soon as they get their money back (if they do get it back) so they could pay me directly instead (without having to go through the stupid agency).
I’m crossing my fingers but I don’t know. Sigh.
😦

Because I started out this channel to document my adventure / journey with makeup, I think it would be good to actually show which palettes I have.
Urban Decay’s NAKED palette has been around for a few years now but for those of you who are thinking about buying it (I got mine almost two months ago), here’s a swatch video for you, along with my thoughts about said palette.

I previously wrote about my problems regarding the babysitting agency I worked for and how I wasn’t getting paid. Here’s the latest update:
I’ve just received word from the parents of the little girl I babysit that the agency has shut its doors and is now completely closed. Apparently, there’s a closure notice from the tribunal that’s posted on the door of their office, and no one has picked up their mail in a week already.
Basically, that leaves me in a dire position. I have yet to get paid since I started work in November. The parents can’t just hand me money directly because they did pay the agency a set fee of 4 000 € — the agency was supposed to pay me monthly but nada. I am now just as broke as the agency itself. Well, at least they got to keep the money while leaving nothing to us babysitters. My biggest problem is being able to pay rent and food.
So now I’m broke and unemployed. One more problem and I’ll hit the trifecta of despair.
Hope you guys are having a better day though.
