Review Menco Visagie Dordrecht | Smokey eyes workshop

01/09/2016 | Reageer

mandyvictoria_mencovisagie_smokey15

I wanted to learn how to apply a good smokey eyes look together with a friend, so we decided to go to a smokey eyes workshop of Menco Visagie in Dordrecht which I found at vakantie veilingen.
Ik wilde graag een smokey eyes look leren samen met een vriendin van me, dus besloten we naar een workshop van Menco Visagie in Dordrecht te gaan die ik gevonden had via vakantie veilingen.

When we arrived, we recieved a friendly welcome. Inside, the space had a nice overview and was well decorated. There where planks with products of Youngbloog, T. LeClerc, Payot and some more, which we would use during the workshop.
We werden erg vriendelijk ontvangen. Binnen was de ruimte overzichtelijk en leuk ingericht, met op de wanden de producten van Youngblood, T. LeClerc, Payot en diversen – Waar we tijdens de workshop gebruik van zouden maken.

The total amount of participants was 6 ladies, which made the atmosphere very personal and comfy. After everyone was introduced, we started with the removal of our make-up and after that – cleansing. We used products of Payot for this, which I concider as very nice in use and besides that – have a very nice scent, especially the toner! After that part, we used a moisturizer of the brand Ahava- which in my opinion felt very fresh and nice on my skin.
In totaal waren er 6 dames die deelnamen, waardoor de sfeer erg persoonlijk was. Na iedereen was voorgesteld, begonnen we met het verwijderen van onze make-up en daarna het reinigen van het gezicht. Hiervoor gebruikte we de producten van Payot, die ik erg fijn vond in gebruik en daarnaast ook een heerlijke geur hadden – vooral de toner! Na de reiniging gebruikte we een fijne moisturizer van het merk Ahava, die in mijn mening erg fris en fijn op de huid voelde.

After cleansing we would continue with applying foundation. On my skin, the visagist showed an example of how to choose the right color of foundation. Side not: I rarely use foundation in my own daily life, because I do not need a lot of coverage because my skin is pretty much free from blemishes in my opinion. But I do use bb cream. After that step and further instructions, we would start using concealer, bronzer and blush. We got shown how to apply it the right way by watching how the visagist applied it on a volunteer.
Na het reinigen begonnen we met het aanbrengen van foundation. Op mijn huid werd voorgedaan en getoond wat nou de beste manier is om de juiste kleur te kiezen en het aan te brengen. Side note: Ik gebruik in het dagelijks leven vrijwel nooit foundation, omdat ik een zeer egale huid heb en in mijn mening niet zoveel dekking nodig heb. Wel gebruik ik bb cream. Na die stap en verdere uitleg gingen we aan de slag met concealer, bronzer en blush, die op de juiste manier werd voorgedaan op een vrijwilliger.

The step that would continue after was the eyebrow shaping with an eyebrowpencil, mascara, eyeliner to create the smokey eyes with, and an eyeshadow color to apply over the smudged eyeliner and finish it with. In my oppinion, the eyeliner was very nice in use, because it is very creamy when applying. I like the products we used in regular because they are very nice in use and very well pigmented. I asked the visagist to pick an eyeshadow color for me that would fit well with my eyecolor – which is blue-grey. The color of eyeshadow was khaki green. Last but not least, we would finish the look by using banana powder from the brand T. LeClerc – which by the way, has the same high quality powders on the market since the 19th century (!). Each of the girls got a lipstick color which would fit them best and with the look. My color for the look was a bold color of pink. The lipstick was very nice in use and very well pigmented.
De verdere stap was de wenkbrauwen vormen met wenkbrauwpotlood, mascara en oogpotlood om smokey eyes mee te maken en een oogschaduw kleur om het mee af te maken. In mijn mening vond ik het oogpotlood erg fijn in gebruik, omdat het erg smeuïg is in mijn mening. Ik vind de producten over het algemeen erg fijn in gebruik en erg goed gepigmenteerd. Ik liet een kleur voor me kiezen die het beste bij mijn oogkleur grijsblauw staat, en dat werd khaki groen. Last but not least was het tijd om met banana poeder van T. LeClerc – dat overigends al sinds de 19e eeuw dezelfde goede kwaliteit poeders op de markt heeft (!) – af te poederen. Daarna werd voor ieder een kleur lippenstift gekozen. Ik kreeg een felle kleur roze aangewezen. De lippenstift was heel erg fijn in gebruik en erg gepigmenteerd.

Final:

Mey and I where really happy with our look and we liked the workshop! We definitely recommend joining a workshop at Menco. I will totally use this look more in the future. The reason I join workshops is because I like trying out more brands, and to see what looks also look well besides the looks I can create from my own years of experience.

Underneath this post, you can see my favorite products of the workshop which I recommend. I like the use of the products and consider them well pigmented and high quality.


Tot slot:

Mey en ik zijn erg tevreden met deze look en vonden de workshop leuk! We raden zeker aan een workshop bij Menco bij te wonen. Ik ga deze look zeker meer gebruiken in de toekomst. De reden dat ik mee heb gedaan aan workshops is omdat ik het leuk vind meerdere merken uit te proberen, en ook om te zien welke looks leuk staan naast de looks die ik door mijn eigen jaren ervaring kan creëren.

Hier onder kun je mijn favoriete producten van de workshop zien en wat ik je dus aanbeveel.
Ik vind de producten erg fijn in gebruik, met een goede pigmentatie en van een goede kwaliteit.

POV: You get to stay at your dream villa in Tulum 🌴
Villa Hunab-Ku @villa_hunab_ku 🍃

Imagine having your own dream villa at your favorite place in the world! 

I had an amazing 4 night stay at this incredible villa. A villa perfect for a bachelorette, family visit, party or lucky me - for myself!

This beautiful place has 5 bedrooms. My personal favorite was the Bali master bedroom - which I chose to sleep in - and the Zen bathroom - A Japanese style bathroom with a yoga garden.

Would you stay here with your friends?

(Swipe) The Souls of Guatemala & Mexico Nov/Dec 2025 🪽🐦‍🔥 I’m beyond grateful to have a lot of close and also new friends and acquaintances from around the world and can call Tulum my second home.

If I didn’t go to México on my own back in May 2022, my life would have been completely different. 

I’m extremely grateful (and privileged) to be able to travel the world as a WOMAN on my own. Although I still live with my parents as in my country it’s hard to afford housing as a single person - I count my blessings and use that form of ‘space’ in my favor as a form of freedom.

The more I travel, the more gratitude I preach and feel, but also realize how only a small group of people (mainly women) is able to go out and explore. 

I started solo travelling back in 2017, and after 8 years, I and have a big worldwide group of close friends and lifechanging experiences. 

One of the first things I have learned from travelling is that your soulmates don’t need to have a similar zipcode. 

Thank you all for existing 🤍🪽

Haven’t been able to take pics with everyone or tag them! Still love you equally x

UNESCO world heritage surrounded by Volcanoes 🌋🇬🇹 Antigua - Guatemala

Solo in Guatemala 🇬🇹✨
I started my journey in the beautiful colonial city of Antigua, and it instantly stole my heart.

After a one-hour flight from Cancún and a short drive from Guatemala City, I arrived in a place full of colorful streets, historic architecture, lush gardens and the cutest coffee spots.

It felt surprisingly social for solo travellers, with boutique hotels and hostels everywhere. I felt safe walking around on my own, even early in the mornings and evenings, and everything is close enough to explore on foot.

I spent about three days here, spread out over my trip. Two nights at the beginning and one night at the end. The perfect place to slow down, recharge, and meet people along the way.

Would you add Antigua to your solo travel list? 🤍 #guatemala #antigua #laantigua #solotravel

I almost gave up during the first hour of this volcano hike, but what I saw at the top changed everything 🌋 90 second vlog! ⏰

One of the hardest yet most rewarding things I’ve ever done while traveling.
A few weeks ago, I hiked a volcano, and it pushed me far outside my comfort zone, physically and mentally.

We started the day slow, with breakfast in beautiful Antigua, before being transported to the headquarters to gear up and mentally prepare. The first hour was brutal: steep, cold, and way less oxygen. I was close to quitting. But with lots of breaks, support from the group, and a porter for my backpack, it slowly got better.

This hike is no joke. Bring plenty of water, snacks, layers, walking sticks, and altitude pills; the climate and altitude differences really test you. At basecamp there was no water or electricity, so you truly go back to basics. Cold nights, thin air, and warm cacao shared with people from all around the world after a 4–5 hour climb.

I was completely exhausted, so the only extra hike I did was a short 20-minute climb to the viewpoint, and it was more than worth it. Seeing the volcano erupt every 10 minutes was unreal. One of the most mind-blowing experiences of my life. Even at night, waking up in our shared cabin, we could see it glowing in the dark.

The next morning, after coffee and breakfast, we started the descent. About 2.5 hours down - fast, music in my ears, and honestly… pure fun.

This hike reminded me that the hardest paths often lead to the most unforgettable moments.

Would you try this? 🌋✨
Let me know in the comments.

(Swipe and read) This took me hours to create today ⏰ - 2025 in monthly flashbacks.

2025 was a year of growth, a year where I told myself after a big setback in 2024, to do everything I love. And even though it did not give me the results I wished for. I am proud of the things I did and those who I met along the way. 

2025 was a year that looks perfect on the instagram feed (and nothing I post is fake!) - but never forget instagram is a highlight reel. Beyond a lot of beautiful highlights, there were a lot of equally deep lows. 

I am far from where I want to be in life. I am still not out of a very toxic environment, I still don’t have my dreamjob, and I still live with my parents - single (which I enjoy very much)

But one day it will reveal why life happened this way. Setbacks are often stepping stones for bigger things coming. I learned that the environments I was in, are not the ones I should be in. Pageantry and carreer wise - it opened my eyes in how hard it is to fight a system which is politic and not made to be beaten. 

I deserve to thrive in an environment with people that appreciate authenticity, people are respectful to each other and want to see each other win, instead of trying to destroy everything that mirrors their inner insecurities 🪞

May 2026 - a Leo year ♌️ - bring the change I am praying for. 🧿

(Swipe and read) This took me hours to create today ⏰ - 2025 in monthly flashbacks.

2025 was a year of growth, a year where I told myself after a big setback in 2024, to do everything I love. And even though it did not give me the results I wished for. I am proud of the things I did and those who I met along the way. 

2025 was a year that looks perfect on the instagram feed (and nothing I post is fake!) - but never forget instagram is a highlight reel. Beyond a lot of beautiful highlights, there were a lot of equally deep lows. 

I am far from where I want to be in life. I am still not out of a very toxic environment, I still don’t have my dreamjob, and I still live with my parents - single (which I enjoy very much)

But one day it will reveal why life happened this way. Setbacks are often stepping stones for bigger things coming. I learned that the environments I was in, are not the ones I should be in. Pageantry and carreer wise - it opened my eyes in how hard it is to fight a system which is politic and not made to be beaten. 

I deserve to thrive in an environment with people that appreciate authenticity, people are respectful to each other and want to see each other win, instead of trying to destroy everything that mirrors their inner insecurities 🪞

May 2026 - a Leo year ♌️ - bring the change I am praying for. 🧿

Most incredible moment of 2025, and actually one of the most incredible of my life. Hiking the Acatenago volcano in Guatemala was one of the most challenging things I have ever done in my life, but the reward of pushing my own limits felt unreal. This climb and activity was on top of my bucketlist and for sure one of the most rewarding things of the year! 🌋
