Hey everyone, I hope you're all well ! Today I m going to talk about my favorite lip product of the moment: the Apocalips Lip Lacquer by Rimmel London. 

Those new products have been out in the UK for two weeks or so, and I was really excited to try them out. Why? First, because Rimmel London is a cheap high-street brand, so it is affordable and if I don't like it, I haven't ruined myself. Second, because I've heard UK Beauty bloggers rave about it soo much about how amazing they are. So when they came out in stores, I had to try one  !

I've chosen the color "Apocaliptic", a bright fushia.





As you can see, the packaging is very futurist and original. I'm a fan of the shape of the plug, it is really representing the idea of "apocalips" I think. It also allows us to see the colour of the actual product, which is always good.

What can I say about this colour? WOW. This is the first thing which came to my mind when I've tried it the first time. I was nearly shocked by how pigmented this little thing is. I'm not joking here! The smallest amount of product will be enough to colour your entire lips. The first time I wasn't careful and I nearly put pink all over my face and teeth !! So be careful !







The application is still nice, you just have to make sure you don't take too much product. It has a sort of gloss applicator, which made everything easy to do.

You can build it up, put a single lawyer or more if you want to achieve a very dramatic look. I think for nights out  it is definitely the right thing to do, everyone will notice your incredible lips !!





Something great about it is also its staying power. As it is a lip lacquer, it stays for ages on the lips, without drying them too much. Maybe add a bit of lip balm on top to make sure they'll be moisturize all day long. It will also add a glossy finish, so feminine !

If you are a bit afraid of this bright fuchsia shade, Rimmel also has more neutrals one... But also bright red, which I'm really tempted to try next haha !



And here you can see the result on me .. Do you like it ? I think it is really pretty and definitely brings life to my face in the dull winter !

Let me know if you try them! I'll speak to you all soon, hope you're having a nice evening.

Love, Liz xx

Hey everyone! I hope you're all having a nice Sunday. Today, I'm going to write my first ever recipe for you guys ! It is something really simple, easy, fast, tasty AND healthy! It isn't expensive at all, and you don't have to use products for any particular supermarkets, choose which one you like the most !





What you will need:

• 3 small zucchini or 2 big ones. 


• French crème fraîche


• Chicken breast chunks


• Salt


• Herbes de provence


• Margarine


• Vegetable 'grater' (as seen on the pictures)

And thats it !!



-First, you will need to carefully wash your zucchinis under cold water. It will take out any dirt, you don't wanna catch any diseases from food right ?

-Then, you need to peel the skin of the zucchinis with your vegetable grater as you can see on the picture below.

-Once you've done that, start to peel thin strips from the zucchinis, until you hit the white and a bit granular part, which isn't eatable. It is easy to do, and the fact that the stripes are super fin is adding a sort of sophisticated touch to the recipe! Do that for the 3 zucchinis.

-When you're done, you probably have a pile of strips. Take a saucepan, and put a small amount of margarine inside. Start to warm it (2/3) and add the zucchinis inside.







-Then, let’s take care of the meat. It is SUPER simple. Take some chunks of your chicken and put them in a pan, previously warmed with a bit of margarine. (as seen on the picture above).

-Put a bit of 'herbes de provence' on them, it will add taste to it, it is so much yummier ! After something like 10 minutes, you will nearly have cooked your chicken.

-It is time to add the 'crème fraîche'. Put a generous tea spoon of it right into the pan, and you will see it form a sort of sauce with the herbe de provence. All of this will make a super tasty chicken! (as seen below)

-Take a chunk of chicken in your plate and check it is properly cooked.





-Also, add some crème fraîche in your zucchinis just 1 or 2 minutes before they are cooked. Cook them for maybe 10 minutes, no more, so it keeps its crisp. When it starts to look a bit brown on some bits, you're done !!!





TADA! You've just achieved a super easy meal ! I find it super nice and to be honest, I can eat this once or twice a week without problem! I wasn't a zucchini lover, but in thin slices and with crème fraîche, I found it delicious!

As you can see, I haven't added any pasta, potatoes or rice. Indeed, I wanted to propose you something super healthy. But of course you can add any of those if you want to! :)





A table et bon appétit ! Let me know if you try it, I would love to hear your thoughts on it !

I'll speak to you all soon,

Love, Liz xx

Hey everyone ! I hope you are all having a nice evening. Today, I'm going to talk about one of my fav' nail polishes: O.P.I in Tomorrow Never Dies. It was launched within their James Bond collection, and to be honest, it kind of makes me feel like I'm a James Bond Girl myself (not.) It is my second product from this collection, and I adore it ! (I will write another post soon about the second one)

As you can see, the color is a deep purple, with some light silver reflects on it. It has a sort of metallic finish, which at first I wasn't sure about, but once on the nails, it is sick ! (Thanks sis'!!)

I find it gives a modern and sophisticated look at the same time. Indeed, it is a dark color so it is really chic, but also different and interesting. You have to try it to see what I'm talking about !



As any O.P.I polishes, the lasting power is really good. Mine lasted 3 days without moving, it is a real pleasure! The application is easy and it dries quiet rapidly.

As you can tell, the bottle is big, so I hope it won't dry after few months .. Fingers crossed.





You can here see the result on the nails, how pretty right ?? I'm in love. (Follow me on Instagram? elisamacg)







Girls, try at least once in your life an O.P.I product, you won't regret it. It is pigmented, it lasts, it is pretty .. Well, it is perfect.

I'll speak to you very soon, I'm now going to do nothing and enjoy the fact I don't have to write any essays. Cheers!

Love, Liz xx

Hey everyone ! I hope you are well and having a nice week. Today I'm going to write another review about one of my favorite lip product at the moment. It is from the brand Bare Minerals and it is their Pretty Amazing lip-color. I have one on the shade 'Fearless', which I have found during the sales at Sephora.

I chose it completly randomly, and I was a bit scared I've picked up a lip-gloss and not a lipstick. But on the box, it was written lipstick so .. In fact, it is a liquid one !





I was pleasently surprised, as the application is really simple (like you were applying a gloss), and the finish is the same as a lipstick. It is SUPER pigmented, so a small layer of it on the lips is way enought, and you will probably need to blur it a bit so that it looks natural. The color I've chosen is a nudy pink, which raise the shade of your lips. As bloggers/youtubeurs say, "it is your lips, but better!".

The staying power of it is satisfying, and it will last a good part of the day. It doesn't smell of anything in particular, and the texture is pleasant to have on, it is not at all sticky like a gloss can be.





Let me know if you've tried any of those products ! The original price was around 20euros, I got mine for 9euros which is good ! But I think it worth the original price, as the quality is pretty amazing !

I'll speak to you all soon ! Don't forget to visit my English YouTube channel here, it would make my day ! Thanks !

Love, Liz x

Hey everyone ! I hope you are all alright ! I found some time to write my first "fashion" article. I'm going to show you what I carry in my bag in a day to day basis, when I'm not going to Uni. It is a really girly bag, and maybe you can pick up some ideas from it. I may do one with my stuff from University too, let me know if you wanna see that !

I've linked the video I've filmed showing you everything, hopefully you liked it! It is the start of my English YouYube channel, I'm still not 100% fluent while I'm speaking but it is a good way to improve myself. If you enjoy it, feel free to give it a thumb up or even subscribe, it would make my day !

But here is what is inside my bag in pictures:



-Accessorize purse: I got it last year, and I just adore the mix between the red and fuchsia colors. It makes it easy to find in the black inside of my bag, and it just makes me happy really !

-Channel Lipstick, range Coco Shine in the shade Boy. I had it last year for my birthday, and it is the perfect everyday color. Good basic to have in your girly handbag !

-Carmex Lip balm, classic. I just adooore this lip balm, it is really moisturizing and for this freezing winter, it is just my best friend !

-Soap&Glory hand cream. It is saving my hands, and the smell is delicious !

-Instant light lip-gloss by Clarins. It is a sort of lip-gloss, and gives a flawless finish to the lips. I love it!

-Apple. Not the brand, the actual fruit. I'm trying to get healthy and lose some weight, so I always try to keep one in my bag, better than a twix !

-Headphones. Mine are dead, so I need to purchase some news ones, exciting!

-Doliprane, or paracetamol. In case of headache, it is a life savor. Always have some in my bag!!

-Tissues. I don't think I need to explain why, it is just useful !

-Longchamp purse. I keep some coins in there, it is easier to find them in there!

-Oyster card. Well, in London, when you want to take the tube, it can be good to have it with you.

-English phone. I have a Samsung Galaxy something, and to be honest I really like it. It is light, slim, easy to use. Team Samsung!

-Barry M lipstick. It is a vampy color, which I love during winter. And it is cheap! Woop.

-Ipod. I love love love music. If I don't have my Ipod with me, I feel naked.

-French phone. It is a Blackberry curve, and I can't wait to change it..

-Student/Flat cards. Good to go into Uni and good to be able to enter my student house.







I ordered my bag from Ebay, click here to find it. It is a dupe for the Alexander Wang Rocco Bag, and I just freaking LOVE it !

Hope you've enjoyed, see you all soon !

Love, Liz xx

Hey guys, I hope you're all having a good start of the week. Today, I'm just posting some pictures I took yesterday of snowy London. I don't have time to write a proper article because of my politic essay... Anyway I hope you will enjoy these, walking in this magical atmosphere was great and I will remember it for a long time! It was just beautiful! I took them in Kensington Gardens if you are wondering.

I'll speak to you all soon hopefully ! Love, Liz xx

Hey everyone !

Today I'm (again) going to talk about nail polishes. I don't know, I think I may have an obsession with these. My recent discovery is the brand Nail Inc, which I've already seen on many blogs, but because of the price never tried any.

I was in France the other day, in my Sephora and it was the sales. And YES, some Nail Inc polishes were sailed at -50%. Oh joy! Oh joy!



The first shade I've chosen is a beigy nude. I really wanted this kind of color, I think it is chic and goes with everything. As my new OPI polishes, it is giving nice cleans hands, and is wearable for any occasion. It's called 'Basil Street', and I adore the result. I forgot to take a picture of my nails with it though, but you can find plenty of swatches here .

The second shade, I nearly had an heart attack when I saw it (I know, I can get a bit too dramatic when it comes to colors ...)! I have wanted this one for sooo long! I had seen it in Viviana's blog (Vivianadoesmakeup) and I had totally fallen in love with it at the time. So when I saw it in the sell box at Sephora, I had to take it !! It is called 'Baker Street', a street which I know well in London, so it was even better. The packaging is super loud and glittery, you either love it or hate it I guess!



Those two nails polishes are without a doubt becoming two of my favorites. First, they apply very easily, and knowing how bad I am at applying   nail polishes, it is a good point ! They have a really reasonable lasting power, I had Basil Street without any topcoat (urgent need to buy one!) and it had last 3 days without moving.

I would definitely recommend them! I know they are still expensive, but choose one or two good colors that you know you will wear a lot, and I promise you won't regret it.



Pictures from my Instagram (@elisamacg), while I was wearing Baker Street. Brilliant shade right ? I'm in LOVE.

I hope you've enjoyed this article, I'll speak to you all soon !

Love, Liz xx

Hello everyone !

Today Im replying to a challenge from the blogger/Youtubeur Louise from Sprinkle Of Glitter. She is an amazing person and she inspires my every day. You can go and check her blog here, she is super fun and her blog is a pleasure to read :)

Anyways, she created this beauty challenge, I think there will be one every week on Friday, which is exciting hehehe ! The first one is "Vivacious Vixen". First I wasn't really sure what she was talking about haha ! I think the best for this was to use warm shades and a bright lipstick !

So here is the look I've created, it is simple and good to wear at any occasion. I'm not good at all to take photos of makeup, so the result isn't super great ! But I don't mind, I just wanted to take part of this little funny challenge :)

















I hope you've liked it, and if you come here on my blog Louise, I hope you've enjoyed it too :) Here is a kiss for you georgous !

I'll talk to you all soon, now back to my history essay !

Love, Liz xxx

Hello everyone! Today I'm being brave and telling everyone I'm on YouTube. It has been a while now, I've kind of hidden it because I wasn't sure of what people would think. But then I remembered one of my New Year resolutions, which is not to care too much of what people think and just do what I like ! So here we go.

I'm on YouTube since a couple of year now. I've been following French YouTubeurs first, then from America and England. I was really enjoying watching those videos, mainly about fashion, beauty, life-style but also sketches videos. And then one day I thought "why not me?"

I have nothing of a big YouTube celebrity, but I just like doing it. Weird, because in "real life" I'm reserved and can be shy, so why should I expose myself to the whole internet ? Well, I just find it easy to speak in front of a camera, because no one is around, no one is judging me and I can just speak about stuff I like and share it.

At the very beginning, I was filming with my webcam, which wasn't great because the quality was sh** and it wasn't really enjoyable to watch. But I was doing it anyway, because it was fun.

Then I started to have a couple of hundred subscribers, and I thought it would be better to have a new camera. I'm now filming in HD which of course is sooo much better !

YouTube is in my opinion an amazing platform to share stuff that you like, to chat with people and just to have fun really.

If you want to start you have to be passionate about what you show people, and not force yourself, because people will see it directly.

Don't do it just to have 100,000 subscribers and receive free stuff. I can tell you it is a long journey. I still don't have a 1000 subscribers on my French channel, I still don't receive free goodies, I'm still not invited to beauty events, but I keep going, because I believe hard work will pay one day. Be patient! If you start, don't expect to have 100 subscribers in a day, it just won't happen. It will come with time, just don't give up!

Also, I'm not saying at all I'm a professional. I talk about beauty, make-up, fashion, I do hauls and reviews, talk about Uni life. I'm just saying my opinions, no one have to agree !

Bear in mind YouTube can be a cruel world. One of my video hits more than 5,000 views, and had a lot of bad comments. You just have to accept it, it won't always be people telling you how nice you are !

What else .. If you want to do YouTube, really try to have a nice camera, a good setting and good light. Please try to film in front or close to a window to have natural light coming, it will look way nicer ! Try to have a plain and pretty background ( now I know this one is not always easy! )

I am really nervous to put it on my blog and tell everyone I'm on YouTube, so I hope you will like it, if not please tell me what I should work on ! Also I just started my English channel few days ago, apology for my oh so terrible French accent !

If you have a channel let me know, I'd love to see it !

Hope you'll like it *fingers crossed*

I'll talk to you all soon ! Love, Liz x

Hello people of the internet!

Today I'm going to write my first beauty review. Some of you may already know it, but I'm a bit of a beauty junky. I like everything cute, sparkly and pretty. I spend way too much time at Boots, Superdrug or any beauty corners, but I just can't help it.

Anyway, I was still in France few days ago, and sales started. My sister was super kind and bought me this nail polish kit.

It is the New York Ballet Collection by OPI, and was sailed from 20euros to 10euros, so -50% ! (Thanks sis'!). This collection is beautiful and perfect for when I want neutral and clean looking hands.

It contains nude colours, wearable for university, work, job interview, or just when you are too lazy to apply a dark colour really.





It presents four shades, which I absolutly adore. The texture of the product is perfect, I find them easy to apply and with two layers, you are good to go.

The first shade is called 'My pointe Exactly'. It is a light grey colour, which I think is perfect for this winter season. It looks super cute associated with a white or grey jumper, and is going with any type of clothes.

The second shade is called 'Don't touch my Tutu!'. As usual, OPI is great at finding names for its products! This one is a rosy white, which can be use for a french manicure or on its own. It will give the impression of clean and fresh hands. Also for the summer, I am sure it will popped out on a nice tan skin.

The third colour is called 'Care to Danse?'. It is the most amazing pink nude colour. I'm wearing it and I just can't stop staring at my nails. Silly maybe, as it is a neutral and boring shade. BUT I just think it is very elegant and chic, and I will definitly wear it a lot, as it is easy to wear and cute.

The last shade is called 'Pirouette my Whistle'. It is a sheer transparent polish, but with silver shimmers in it. On its own it is really pretty, but you can also put it as a top-coat on any of the three previous colours.





To conclude, I can say I'm really pleased with this collection. I used to say I wasn't an OPI person, but to be honest, I'm changing my mind. Those nail polishes have a real lasting power, they apply nicely, and offer amazing palettes of colors.
I can't recommend it enough ! They aren't the cheapest, but they worth the hype !

Let me know if you've tried any, and I will talk to you soon !

Love, Eliza xx
