Wow! ΩMEGA ALIVE has received so much heartwarming positive feedback! We are all on cloud nine!
To celebrate this huge success, I recreated one of the makeup looks that I wore during the stream.

I created a more muted down look with two key products: a white and a black liner. This is so easy and fun to create!

There is a little Makeup give away as well. Recreate the look in any color that you like, it doesn't have to be black and white ;) 

* Recreate a double liner look and use the hashtags #simonesimonsmakeupmonday #simonesimonsxloreal
* Like and comment my post: ΩMEGA MAKEUP

If you haven't seen the ΩMEGA ALIVE yet, you are missing out ;)

The show will be available for replay until June 15 at 11:59 PM ET.

Good luck and have fun!

Time for another give away! L'Oréal Paris has created a beautiful limited edition collection together with the Lebanese designer Elie Saab. They were very generous and have given me two makeup sets to give away on the blog!

The other prize is an authentic Elie Saab bag!!! If you want to have a chance of winning this, then head over the Makeup Monday IGTV and leave a comment there as well.

All you have to do in order to win on of the two makeup bags with the whole collection in it is: Tell me which lipstick you prefer to the look that I have created: the red or the nude lipstick.

Good luck everyone!

*The products that you see in the photos are my own. The two makeup kits in the give away are untouched ;)

Yesterday, May 9th was officially 'Mother's Day'. 
I deliberately wanted to write a blogpost the day after ;) Today is also 'Mother's Day'. Tomorrow and the days after that will also be Mother's Day, just as every day is Father's Day.

That doesn't mean that I don't love to get a little bit more TLC  on the 'official' day. 
Vincent made me a sweet drawing, which I posted on Instagram Stories. Oliver made a nice brunch that was waiting for me after my weekly Yoga session. 

While I was practicing Yoga, the doorbell rang. I received the most beautiful bouquet of white roses from my L'Oréal team. So sweet and thoughtful! I hardly buy flowers for myself, with the exception of tulips every now and then. Thank you L'Oréal team!!!!

This beautiful body vase caught my eye a couple days ago. I just fell in love with it and had to get it. 
I left it on it's own for a while, not knowing what to do with it. I thought about putting some dried flowers in it, or just leave it. I do love minimalistic style. Not when it comes to lipsticks, though ;) Although, I have been decluttering a lot lately. Corona made me do it ;) More about that in a different post. 

Today I put some of the white roses inside the vase. It was as if it was meant to be. The female body as a vase for flowers, a beautiful symbol for how wondrous and full of life the female body is.

A metaphor for life and for 'Mother's Day', all day, every day.

I hope that all mothers out there got a little extra love yesterday. 

Remember, you are all amazing! 


Love from Mama Simone

Sucre - Caramelise - Praline - Pecan


Shopping my stash isn't that difficult, especially when I came across this cute little Viseart eyeshadow palette, which I purchased a while back on Beauty Bay.

I own more eyeshadow palettes than I can ever finish. I am basically set for life, or until they expire ;) Powder eyeshadows do have a much longer life span than creme eyeshadows. 

Viseart is a pro makeup artist brand that creates amazing quality eyeshadow palettes. One of my favourite palettes of all time, is the 'Neutral Mattes' palette. A lot of pro makeup artist own this palette. Yes it is expensive (€80,00), but you pay for the amazing quality. 

One downside is that the packaging is very fragile and the lid will most definitely break. Whenever I have clients, I always have my trusty Viseart palette with me. I just know that I have all the neutral colors that I might need and the eyeshadows always blend like a dream.

I own in total 4 palettes from Viseart, but the one I wanted to show you today, is my latest addition: the super cute 'Petite Fours' in 'Praline'. I believe that there are 4 different colors in total. The one that spoke to me the most, was the Praline version. 

Today I played with it for the first time and did a fun and delicious little photoshoot. All three shimmers swatch beautifully, except the matte eyeshadow. I did find that one a bit more difficult to blend. On my eyes I am wearing all colors, except 'Praline'. The liner is from Bobbi Brown 'Sepia Ink'. Lipstick is from Linda Hallberg Cosmetics 'Famous'.

The day started with an email that my first train was cancelled, 15 minutes before the taxi was going to pick me up to take me to the train station. 

With the cancellation of my first train ride, I knew that I wouldn't be able to make the connection of the other trains. The German train system is not like the Dutch where you can take the next train in 30 minutes or 1hour. 

I like to think in solutions and not in problems. If I where to describe myself I would say that I am pragmatic. It has come in handy many times in my career so far. 

I knew that the only way for me to make all the train rides was if the taxi driver would bring me little further than planned. The taxi driver was kind enough to bring me to the second translation where an ICE would take me to the next stop. At first the taxi driver said that he had another customer, but he found a solution for that. He was my hero! I was going to make it, at least that is what I thought....

Things were looking good. I had enough time to catch the longest train ride of my journey. There was even enough time to get some snacks for the journey ahead. I got my favourite treats from my home country and made my way to the tracks. There was still more than enough time. 

The next train switched tracks last minute and as the ICE arrived, the doors opened and as I wanted to put my bags in the train, the train closed the doors. I knocked on the door and tried to open the door.  Then I heard the engines started running and the train took off without me...

I did everything I could to make it to that train and then it left one minute after it arrived. Right in front of my face... In my 20+ years of traveling by train, I never experienced that! No one checked if all the passengers made it on board, they just took off...

My next connection was in 2 hours, and I really had to go to the bathroom. 
I went to check where the bathroom was, and it was down a couple of stairs... I have a lot of bags with me and can't schlepp them down the stair cases. 
The lady at the counter of the Dutch train service was kind enough to keep an eye on my bags.

In the end I consider myself lucky that I didn't load one of my bags in there and that the train would take off with my bags. That is actually one of my travel nightmares.....

Do you have any travel nightmare stories to tell? Let me know in the comments.
