#HOTSPOT / BEAUTY STUDIO NATUREL

Welcome to one of my favorite spots in Amsterdam! The place where you forget all the fuss of the 

city for a moment, a place where you can relax to the max and walk out like a true natural beauty: 

Beauty Studio Naturel. This beauty salon is my hotspot when it comes to organic facials, 

peelings, plucking and dying my brows and to chit chat with the lovely and caring owner; Dona. 

Dona is like the French mom I've never had. She is sweet, truly honest and knows seriously 

everything about your skin and cosmetics. The best quote Dona ever told me, with her cute 

French/Dutch accent: "If you can't eat it, don't put it on your face either". 

She's specialized to work with organic products, therefrom the name of the salon "Beauty Studio 

Naturel" of course ;-) Brands like Jeunesse and Lakshmi are her ultimate favorites to use for facials. 

Besides my office, I can definitely call this place my second home. I had acne, so my skin was 

very bad. And this madame helped me a lot to process and end this journey as good and fast as 

possible. She will always welcome you with open arms, no matter how your skin looks like. 

With her passion for beauty, she will makes your skin looks like a baby skin again.

Visit Beauty Studio Naturel at Cornelis Trooststraat 22, 1072 JE in Amsterdam.

#FACETIME / HANGOVER SKIN CURE

Hej Monday! While festival season is getting to an end, that doesn't mean the party's over in the 

weekends (or weekdays, whatevah)! Since we all hate the day after, or better said: thé hangover 

 (if you like hangovers, I think you need to make a doctors appointment babe), I can help you to 

 solve some aftereffect problems.

I can not help you with all kinds of hangover remedies for your head or stomach, but I do discovered 

 the best hangover skin therapy which I can't wait to tell you about! So may I? Thank you!

#FACETIME / BYE BYE BANGS BANGS WITH COSMO HAIRSTYLING

And BANG, you've hit the awkward stage with your bangs. At least I have and I can't be the 

only one. Too long to let it hang and too short for an updo. The last one is NOT true, let that be 

clear ladies and gentlemen.

Luckily there's Cosmo Hairstyling! Because I have to be honest, Cosmo hairstylist Lila helped me 

out (a lot!) and gave me a little workshop on these "how to" hairdo's, and now I will pass it on to you. 

Because that's where friends are for, right? ;) 

These updo's are actually quite easy, but you just need to know how to apply and you and your 

bangs can happily ever after. So, are you ready?! Let's start this "6 ways to grow out bangs" 

hairdo's workshop!

#FACETIME / MERMAID SKINCARE

I have to confess something... I had a bad bad skin back in the days. Acne was my main problem.
It was horrible, a nightmare (on Elmstreet kinda nightmare). It made me extremely insecure that I
didn't even dare to pull up my hair or going outside without any make-up on.

So let me spare you these sad stories and let's talk about the solution! Because around 1,5 years ago
some magic happened; I discovered Mádara. A pure and organic skincare brand which seriously
saved my skin. From going to dermatologist to beauticians to antibiotics and sleeping with a new
pillow sheet errrrday - trust me hon, I tried everything - my hope was gone. Until that day when
Mádara and my skin met each other...

...Buh-bye pimples, hello perfect hair updo's! It's time to discover the Mádara Micellar Water.
Which is the perfect all-in-one facial cleanser (especially for travel birds like you and me). I use it
everyday to remove my make-up and for moisturizing my extremely sensitive skin. The Micellar 
Water is based on high quality and natural ingredients, so no plastic fantastic for me! It protects my
skin and makes it as soft and smooth as a babyskin ;)

Do you have skin problems? And did you know Mádara already?
