L'OCCITANOVA GARAŽNA RAZPRODAJA // L'OCCITANE GARAGE SALE (SLO & ENG)

Today, I wanted to share an amazing experience with you. I was invited by Stillmark (company that represents Melvita, L’Occitane and Le Couvent des Minimes) in Slovenia and Nika Veger from Beautyfullblog to attend their garage sale. But this time, it wasn’t about cosmetics. No, it was about some other things that beauty bloggers need :)

Danes želim s tabo deliti edinstveno izkušnjo. Stillmark, podjetje, ki pri nas zastopa znamke L’Occitane, Melvita in Le Couvent des Minimes, in Nika Veger z Beautyfullblog sta me povabila, da se predpremierno udeležim njihove garažne razprodaje. Vendar pa tokrat nisem kupovala kozmetike, ampak nekaj drugega, kar lepotne blogerke resnično potrebujemo :)

SUNDAY SPECIAL: Be yourself, be different - with L'Occitane Arlésienne collection

I can't believe that the Beautiful Bloggers meetup is really over for this year. I had an even better time this year, but truth be told, I need a day or two to process everything before I can summarize my thoughts into a nice, long post. 

But I can talk for a moment about the theme of this years' meetup: Be yourself ... be an unicorn! Or, as someone put it even better: Be yourself. Unless you can be an unicorn - then always be an unicorn! I already spoke many times how I feel that it's difficult to tell one beauty blog from another, since most of us write about similar products, shoot similar photos... there is no diversity. 

And I plan to change that! I am making a promise to myself that I will make my blog different, unique and stand out from all others. I plan to keep that promise!

SATURDAY EXCLUSIVE: Beautiful Bloggers Meetup #1

I know that it's Saturday and I don't normally post on Saturdays, but the thing is Beautiful Bloggers Meetup (#bbmulj on Instagram if you want to check it out) under the motto Be yourself. Be an unicorn got me too excited to keep things to myself. And I bet you're curious about what was happening, amirite?

Anyway, I need a few more days to really get my mind in working order so I can summarize everything that happened and my thoughts on the whole conference (which will be post #2, I suppose) and I still need to go through all the goodies that I got (obviously, post #3), so in the mean time, here are some photos to keep you entertained.  

My breakfast - a fab cake pop!

Le Couvent des Minimes body sprays were available in the hall and in the toilets - for warmth, happiness or energy after the lunch, depending on whatever each girl needed on that particular day.

I am absolutely in love with the wonderful lights from Smile Concept Store. These and the roses by Box Of love really made the atmosphere in Hotel Lev magical - perfect for unicorns!

 

 

 

 

I love when people pay attention to the little details - my morning coffee came with a cute bow!

This is just a glimpse at everything that could be seen at the Avon stand - there were so many product my head was spinning!

sOliver stand showcasing their new perfumes (for him and for her) was absolutely gorgeous with all the flowers, bows and pastel colors

A good smoothie kept my stomach from being louder then the speakers :)

DM stand with Trend it up products was the only stand being presented by a man. Well done, DM!

Melvita stand was out of this world simply because it took me to another place and time - in all that crowd, I got complete attention and felt like I was the only person in the world while they were talking to me. I <3 it!

That's it for now, I'm afraid. But remember - there is more to come :)

Until next time, stay beautiful!

MONDAY MADNESS: Delivery services in Slovenia RANT!

As a beauty blogger, I’m a regular customer in most drugstores around my home town, but other than that, I also shop online and get sent the occasional package once in a while. When I was ordering the packages to work, I had no trouble at all about 99 % of the time. The DPD delivery driver even knew that even if my home address was on the box, he would most likely find me at the office and simply delivered it there. But since on maternity leave, I’ve had my share of trouble with delivery services and so have my fellow bloggers. If you are reading this, you most likely shop online as well, so if you are curious as to what has been happening and how we are dealing with it, read below!

FRIDAY SUPERSTAR: Bocassy Clean&Tone Tonic

Over the years, I've learned that the less stress and steps I add to my skincare routine, the more likely I'm to follow it, hence also making it more likely for my skin to look good. 

Admittedly, I could blame my recent lack of routine on baby M, but the truth is he sleeps for 12 hours straight throughout the night, making it perfectly easy for me to do the things that need getting done. So here it is - I'm lazy. That's right. After taking off my make-up, I slap on some night cream and call it a day.
