Dior 5 Couleurs number 434 Peacock

There is in the air something magical that is called ....SALES!
I saw a beautiful Dior palette and fell in love. In fact, it had been a while but...this one was in the SALE!!! AND it was the last one left at the Dior counter. It was a sign: this palette was waiting for me!
Green is a perfect shade if you have brown eyes.

OK I know this was a limited edition from 2013 but...who cares? There was just the one left and it was the SALES!!!

I have found great pictures from this Dior collection which was called Bird of Paradise .




Anyway, I know the fabulous model looks incredible on the ads but I have chosen to go for something rather more...errrr...subtle?
Please pardon my silly hair in the video, I am growing it at the moment and it has reached a particularly annoying lenght...ugh...




There are several brands doing green shadows such as Guerlain, Givenchy , MAC etc...or maybe this little treasure number 434 by Dior is waiting for you somewhere...in the SALES!!!

Bye for now!

Welcome to the Little Salon!

Hi all,

Welcome to my new little corner on the web where I will be sharing with you about beauty, fragrances and...MAKEUP!
Ok, you are probably going to think "another beauty blog!!???"... Well yes...I just thought I would love to share with people who probably have similar interests a few of the things I love.
I love makeup and makeovers so be prepared to see some before and after pictures of my friends ( perfect guinea pigs when it comes to makeup!!!) and also myself as I don't always have a friend to try products on.
I love photography very much , work as a fragrance specialist for a great company and am surrounded by the greatest products you can have every day I work. LUCKY ME!!!

I have a VLOG on YouTube https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCa1Yc1txJpZYxbGyEMajYMw
and a Facebook page right there https://www.facebook.com/TheLittleNailSalon?fref=photo

 I am a CHANEL junky but also love to work with many other brands such as DIOR, Bare Minerals, Sisley Paris ( used to work for them and loooooooooooooove the products!) , Guerlain and many others.



I have an obsession with nails and qualified years ago as a Nail Tech so will be happy to share a few tips with you.
I am half French and half Maurician so I am a brunette with brown eyes and an olive skin. Most of my posts and makeovers or tests will be done on me so I hope this will help or inspire you whatever your origins or skin type. I have a combination skin so use skin products accordingly.

I hope to hear from you soon and that we can share tips and  giggles on this blog.

Bye for now!
Patricia.
