Beauty book | My daily beauty products

30/12/2017 | Reageer

Hi everyone! In this post I will share the products that I use for daily looks. I have been asked what make-up I often use and wear. For this reason, I have collected and photographed a number of products over a long period of time, some of which have already been finished, but currently are or have been used by me. Over the years, I have started to wear more and more make-up. [Lees meer…]

Review ReFaceMe | Day look beauty workshop

29/03/2017 | 1 Reactie

Not long after the holidays, I saw a workshop online of ReFaceMe in Maarssen and decided to book one for this month. I thought it would be a great idea to visit another make-up workshop together with a friend that I wanted to suprise, because I like trying out new looks in a group (besides the many looks that I learned by myself from years of experience, use and practice), to learn multiple and different techniques and to work with different brands.

Review | Makeup Revolution 12 days of Christmas box

10/01/2017 | Reageer

Make-up Revolution is a well affordable make-up brand with products which score well in the price/quality ratio. They started selling this special edition cosmetics set.Β The box was for sale for 60 euro’s at Beauty88.Β I have shown on my snapchat and instagram a while ago, that I own this box for a while.
A lot of people where curious about it. I have not tried the products in the box extensively yet, but I like sharing my opinion about it so far. I like the box itself. I think the bronze details of the box are pretty and fit well with my room. [Lees meer…]

I was curious about the hair collection of Balmain, it was something I heard about a while ago.

It changed my life.

Not because of the beaches, the sunsets, or the endless tacos.

Mexico taught me that life can be bigger than the version I was settling for.

It was the first place that showed me freedom doesn’t come from having everything figured out, it comes from trusting yourself enough to take the next step.

It gave me lifelong friendships, unforgettable adventures, confidence I didn’t know I had, and the courage to build a life that feels like mine.

I arrived as someone looking for a holiday.

I left with a completely different perspective on what was possible.

And honestly?

A part of me never really came back. πŸ‡²πŸ‡½βœ¨

POV: You spent your 20s in beauty competitions.

People see the gowns, the crowns, the photos and the stage.

What they don’t see are the early mornings, the self-doubt, the courage it takes to keep showing up, and the growth that happens long after the spotlight fades.

My twenties taught me that beauty competitions were never really about beauty.

They were about finding my voice.
About learning confidence.
About standing on a stage when I was terrified.
About representing causes I care about.
About inspiring others to embrace who they are.

I had the honor of competing in:

✨ Miss World
✨ Miss Universe
✨ Miss Grand International
✨ Miss Cosmo
✨ Miss International (selected to represent the Netherlands internationally, later cancelled due to COVID)

The titles were never the biggest reward.

The friendships, lessons, resilience, opportunities, and the woman I became along the way will always mean more than any crown ever could.

To the younger version of me who dreamed of standing on those stages: we did it. πŸ’«

Gone (solo) travelling 😜

One day they’ll look for the version of you that was always there.

The version they took for granted.

And by then, you’ll be gone.

What’s the hardest lesson something taught you without meaning to?
