Hello darlings!

Are you ready for what’s coming? Black Friday is only few hours away and as you have all seen from the beginning of this week there are some crazy deals you can get your hands on!

Like I love to do for every sales I always check the original prices. So make sure you already know the actual value of the items on your wishlist cause one of the tricks that stores do is have “false” tags on their products. 

I’ve been checking the brands I love regularly and have formed couple of wishlists on each one so I can notice any price fluctuations. 

Also, the best advice is not to be carried away! I know it is soo easy to be tempted by cheap prices and buy so much staff that you don’t really need! So prioritizing is key! On my lists I have items that I actually need and not just “want”: for example I don’t have a black pencil skirt,which is a key piece in a wardrobe and although I have a dozen sweaters on my wishlist I won’t buy more than 3 cause I already have few nice pieces in my closet.

Now for the  fun part!! Here are the top websites I’m gonna be lurking for the sales this Black Friday!  Continue Reading →

New skincare obsession : Liz Earle

catherinekay Leave a Comment

Am I excited or what???

Its been a while since the last new skincare review and for this particular one I was very excited from the beginning. When my brother-in-law told me his coming from London and asked what I wanted there was only one brand I wanted to get my hands on for a while : Liz Earle! I have heard so much for their skincare products from so many other bloggers that I really had to try them.

The only problem was he was flying only with a carry on but thank God Boots gave the solution again with this lovely kit that includes travel-sized cleanser, toner and moisturizer.

How to survive a sunburn

catherinekay Leave a Comment

Confession: I have been in such a bad mood lately that few days by the sea was all I could think of. Due to the heavy schedule I couldn’t take any days off until September so no proper vacation for me.

So when I finally had a long weekend didn’t think twice: Got myself my Mahi duffel bag full with swimsuits and dresses and went to my boyfriend’s beach house.

The house is located in Evvoia, which is only 1,5h from Athens, and right next to the beach.

Needless to say they couldn’t convince me to leave the beach! We got ourselves some floaties too and that was the reason I got myself a “nice” sunburn!!

Mia Aesthetics Beauty salon

One of the best things about blogging is going to all these fabulous events and meeting incredible people. The other day I attended the “Mia Aesthetics” event and boy I am ecstatic! The venue is great (right in the center of Athens, across Megaro Mousikis), the place looks amazing and the staff is THE TOP! Mia is a fantastic person, a real professional that knows her job so well that you immediately trust her. Her methods are insanely good  -we saw a live demonstration of wrinkle removal and the results where crazyyyyy!-  and the quality of the provided services are top of the line: Micropigmentation, Permanent make up, lashes, plasma treatments are some of the main services of Mia Aesthetics, and when you know that Mia has been awarded the Quality Riso Award for “Best Micropigmentation Techniques” you know you are in good hands!

We also saw a demonstration of lash extensions placement and when I saw the results I knew I am getting it very very soon (I actually have an appointment for lash lifting so I’m gonna share more soon, plus pics!).

For those living in EU you are in luck, as Mia Aesthetics also has a beauty salon in Wetzlar, Germany and also collaborations in Austria and Switzerland. So make sure you stop by their website and check all the available treatments!
