How to fix broken makeup.

I dont' know about you guys but i hate when this happens to me, especially if it's some quality makeup.
But fear no more, today you'll learn how to fix it so you won't have to trow it away! The tutorial is very easy it's good for eyeshadows or any kind of powdery compact makeup, all you need is:

  •  a small makeup spatula or a little spoon or whatever you feel comfortable using
  • some alcohol ( no, not the one you drink) make sure it's scent free
STEP 1. 
Collect all the pieces of your poor broken makeup, in my case it's a beautiful bronzer by Lancome. 



 STEP 2. 
Smash all the pieces until you have a fine powder using the spatula or the spoon, you can do this step directly in the pan or using some baking paper, empty the bronzer on it and smash it, you can even fold the paper in two, with the pieces of makeup in the middle and press it. 


STEP 3.
When you have a nice fine powder ( it has to be a lot more fine that the one i have in the picture), poor it back in the pan and add few drops of alcohol and mix it until it reaches the consistence of a paste. 
Then spread it uniformly into the pan and smooth it using the spatula or the spoon.
Let it air dry for at least 24h, depending on the size of the makeup and voilà! The alcohol will evaporate leaving you with a brand new ready to use compact makeup!

OOTD: Sunset in Bari

hey there everyone, sorry if I didn't post in so long but I am currently in Bari for my brother's 18th birthday party that in Italy is kind of a big deal. I can't wait to share with you what i'm going to wear for the party tonight but for now here's the outfit I wore around town  yesterday, I hope you'll like it. I love the dipdye dress and those shoes are just so comfortable.  I don't think round sunglasses really suite my face but they went really well with the outfit so oh well! I am really happy to be in my hometown for a week, even if i love living in Milano and i have a strong desire to travel the world, it's good to be back sometimes, to see again all my friends and the places where i  grew up, i mean it's ok to be nostalgic sometimes.


Ciao a tutti, scusate se è un po che non posto ma sono a Bari per i 18 anni di mio fratello. Non vedo l'ora di condividere con voi le foto dell'outfit che ho scelto per la festa ma per ora ecco cosa ho indossato ieri in giro per la mia città, spero vi piaccia. Amo l'effetto dipdye sul vestito e le scarpe sono estretamente comode. Non credo che gli occhiali da sole tondi complementino molto bene il mio viso ma erano intonati all'outfit quindi oh beh! 
E' bello essere a casa di tanto in tanto, mi piace vivere a Milano ed ho un fortissimo desiderio di girare il mondo ma a volte è bello tornare alle radici, rivedere tutti i vecchi amici e i posti in cui sono cresciuta, credo sia normale essere nostalgici a volte.
