Hello girls,

Mersul la job, urmaritul tuturor schimbarilor si stresul aferent,intorsul direct acasa, fara nici o activitate extra si-au lasat putin amprenta si am avut o perioada in care nu am fost foarte pozitiva,motiv pentru care am tot amanat recenzia la minunatul meu parfum, Black Opium de la Yves Saint Laurent.
Descrierea oficiala YSL : "Parfumul seducător de intoxicant de la Yves Saint Laurent Beauté. Notele de deschidere ale cafelei bogate în adrenalină și senzualitatea dulce a vaniliei se înclină în moliciunea florilor albe pentru un parfum modern, tineresc care provoaca dependenta."

 Parfumurile puternice imi plac, ma reprezinta, imi pot schimba starea cand le port, iar Black Opium este o surpriza placuta si se pliaza exact pe gustul meu. Persista intreaga zi, cateva puf-uri sunt suficiente pentru a primi complimente si intrebari despre parfum. Black Opium este feminin, senzual, puternic, cu note energizante de cafea si senzualitatea vaniliei,arome subtile de flori de portocal si iasomie, fructe de par si piper roz. Face parte din familia aromelor calde si dulci gurmande.

Daca iti plac doar parfumurile fresh, cu siguranta nu te vei intelege cu el, insa daca iti plac aromele puternice, deosebite, dulci, orientale, calde, se va numara printre parfumurile tale preferate cu siguranta. Cel putin asa a fost in cazul meu si a cumnatei mele.
Sticluta este stralucitoare,unica si eleganta, am incercat sa surprind in poza cat de bine am putut deoarece mie mi se pare printre cele mai frumoase sticlute de parfum detinute vreodata. Ma provoaca cumva sa imi iau toata colectia Black Opium pentru a le avea pe toate.
Daca stai in casa si majoritatea cumparaturilor le faci online, iti dau si un pont : gasesti pe Notino parfumul Yves Saint Laurent Black Opium la super promotie, 90 ml la 349 lei. 

YSL este printre brandurile mele preferate cand vine vorba de parfumuri si produse de machiaj. Poti sa vezi pe blog si primul meu review la un parfum de la ei, aici.

We’re in for a bumpy ride, economically speaking. Global pandemic notwithstanding, in this 
fast-moving and fast-changing and technologically driven economy, we’re fast learning that no job 
and no business is as secure as we once thought they were. All around us we’re hearing of 
companies unable to cover their operating costs and needing to let their employees go. Even some 
of the biggest and most recognised brands in the world are not immune to the unpredictable and 
volatile nature of the markets these days. As such, more and more of us are turning our thoughts to 
freelancing in order to take our careers and our livelihoods into our own hands. There’s no better way 
to make a living entirely on your own terms and prove to the world that you can succeed.

Yet, while freelancing is an extremely rewarding way to pay for the beautiful things that make life 
worth living while also providing you the flexibility that you need to achieve work / life balance, it’s not 
always easy. If it were, everybody would be doing it. As well as the skills from which you’ll be making 
your living, you’ll also need to learn some new skills that will keep a steady flow of work coming in. 
We’ve already looked at how to score your first freelance gig. Now we’re going to look at the skills 
you’ll need to maintain great relationships with clients and keep yourself in work, whatever twists and 
turns the economy brings...

Pitching skills

Whether you’re doing it in person or online, freelancers need to be able to pitch. Whether you’re a 
copywriter pitching an article to your editor, you’re pitching a product you’ve created to a local retailer, 
or you’re pitching to a business angel or investor you need the same set of skills. 

You need to be able to convey a lot of information in a way that’s concise, easy to remember and 
demonstrates that you know what you’re talking about. Visual aids are absolutely essential for this. 
Consider taking some Powerpoint Training Courses or at the very least taking some time to get to 
know the program and create slides that are chock full of information without being visually busy or 
distracting. Video presentations may take longer to put together, but this is also a great medium to 
communicate a lot of information in a short amount of time. 

Only have a potential client or investor’s ear for a few minutes? You need to master the subtle art of 
the elevator pitch.

Networking skills

Networking is a crucial skill by which freelancers either survive or thrive. Attending networking events 
is a little bit cringey and a little bit awkward, but if you’re serious about making a living as a freelancer 
it’s essential that you learn to do them right. 

First of all, we need to look at what a networking event isn’t. It’s not an opportunity to practice your 
elevator pitch, or to pitch to anyone at all unless they specifically ask you to. They’re an opportunity to 
be your charming and delightful self, meet new people, take home some business cards and make 
contacts which may pay off in the long term. Leave it maybe 24 hours (long enough that you don’t 
come across as overkeen and quickly enough that they remember who you are) before putting in a 
follow up call and talking about any opportunities that there might be for you to work together in the 
foreseeable future.

Learning to organise your communication

When you’re a freelancer, you can never afford to put all your eggs in one basket. You need to be 
making new contacts and lining up new prospective clients even as you ensure that the needs of your 
existing clients are well serviced. This means maintaining open lines of communication at all times 
and scheduling communications with existing clients and new prospects so that you’re never far from 
the minds of people who may need your services, 

Of course, this is part and parcel of...

Time management skills

Managing your time effectively is one of the most important skills a freelancer can have. While it’s 
essential to keep yourself busy, you must also be wary of burning out. Keep set working hours and 
stick to them. Make sure that you know how every working day is going to be spent. Set time aside to 
learn new skills, work on your own blog, maintain your website and build your personal brand. 

Freelancing can be a gift, but it can also be a curse. Master these skills and you’ll enjoy a prosperous 
career on your own terms!

 Fie ca esti iubita, sotie, mama, sora, fiica sau prietena , cineva cu siguranta se gandeste la tine si vrea sa te simti speciala in aceasta zi. Urarile transmise, florile parfumate de primavara, martisoare, sau cadouri primite ofera o nota de sarbatoare si fericire acestei zile.
Cele mai frumoase cadouri de 8 Martie le-am primit mereu de la sotul si de la fratele meu. Cei doi barbati din viata mea care imi cunosc cel mai bine preferintele, si care mereu vor sa ma vada fericita.
Cu parfumurile nu dau greu niciodata asa ca anul acestapoate primesc un parfum de care sunt curioasa de cand a aparut, Yves Saint Laurent Libre, un parfum perfect pentru ocazii speciale, floral, cu acorduri de lavanda. Din descrierea lui si recenziile citite, cred ca mi s-ar potrivi perfect si daca femeile din jurul vostru sunt pasionate de parfumuri sau de brand, ar fi un cadou ideal pentru a le arata aprecierea de ziua femeii.
Pentru un dar parfumat cu un mesaj speciala, aceasta lumanare parfumata este un cadou frumos si practic. Eu cu siguranta mi-as dori sa primesc de la cineva!

 A trecut ceva timp de cand nu am mai facut un wishlist cu produsele cosmetice pe care mi le doresc si pentru ca am multe doleante cu produse Nyx Cosmetics, le-am dedicat o postare.
Rujurile mate sunt preferatele mele, daca mai si rezista minim 6 ore pe buze, urca rapid in topul produselor folosite des si achizitionate frecvent.
Am mai avut rujuri Nyx insa nu le-am avut pe cele din imaginile de mai jos, si recunosc ca arata extrem de frumoase!
Nyx soft matte lip cream l-am mai incercat si stiu ca mi-a placut mult insa nu l-am achizitionat pana acum dar tare ma tenteaza. Suede Matte Lipstick are un ambalaj dragut si multe nuante frumoase, iar preferatele mele sunt cele roz. Pur si simplu nu ma pot abtine cand vad nuante de roz.





Ultimul produs de pe wishlistul meu este aceasta mascara On the rise volume liftscara. Periuta pare sa fie de genul celor care-mi plac si care chiar imi dau volum la gene.
Mascara de la Nyx am mai avut insa nu retin ce impresia mi-a lasat asa ca o noua incercare ma va elucida.
Voi ce produse preferate Nyx Cosmetics aveti? Vreau sa stiu ce produse must-have aveti de la ei si ce imi recomandati.

Zi frumoasa si sa avem spor la shopping!

Valentine's day.. sarbatoare a iubirii, o zi in care cuplurile sunt mai romantice si sarbatoresc iubirea. Noi, romanii, sarbatorim de doua ori in februarie deoarece avem si Dragobetele, deci daca nu sarbatorim Valentine's Day pentru ca e preluat, tot avem ocazia sa fim mai romantici!
In aceasta perioada saloanele de infrumusetare sunt pline de domnisoare si doamne care vor sa arate cat mai bine la intalnirea cu iubitul iar magazinele sunt pline de barbati care sunt in cautarea cadoului perfect.

Anul acesta, cei de la notino i-au venit in ajutor sotului meu si am primit un mic cadou, niste oje frumusele si un ruj rosu perfect pentru o iesire romantica!
Setul Nobea Heartbeat Festive Red contine un ruj rosu intens si o oja de aceeasi nuanta. Inca nu le-am purtat insa daca esti fana rosu, sunt perfecte cu tematica dragostei din luna aceasta.

Pe site-ul notino veti gasi multe idei de cadouri de valentine's day pentru ea, am vazut multe parfumuri la preturi bune, seturi de cosmetice sau de ingrijire a tenului.
Daca vrei sa iti ajuti iubitul, da-i un link ca sa stie si el cam ce iti place/doresti! Multi prieteni barbati au zis in mai multe ocazii ca ar vrea totusi sa stie ce preferinte au iubitele, sotiile lor, ca sa nu cumpere un cadou care sa ajunga nefolosit sau daruit mai departe :)

Sa aveti o zi/luna minunate, sa fiti iubite si sa fiti rasfatate cu multa iubire si cadouri pe placul vostru!

Buna fetelor,

Fiind cu tenul problematic, am incercat diverse produse pentru ingrijirea tenului atat de la Bioderma cat si de la alte branduri, si am cateva produse pe care le voi folosi pe termen lung. In primul rand, tenul meu este gras, deshidratat si apare uneori si dermatita seboreica, multe produse am incercat de-a lungul timpului si nu multe mi-au fost si ok.
Dimineata ma spal cu Hydrating Cleanser de la Cerave, este pentru ten normal spre uscat.Mi-a fost recomandat de o prietena, este un cleanser foarte bun insa as incerca si varianta lor pentru ten gras.
Acesta curata delicat, imi simt tenul curat si parca usor hidratat. Varianta de 236 ml. costa 41 RON.

Will you be, or have you, made health and fitness resolutions for the New Year? Losing weight, 
gaining fitness, and increasing strength are popular resolutions, but they are also the ones that we 
break the most often, or never actually start. We go into the New Year with the very best of intentions, 
but struggling from post-holiday blues, we find it hard to get started. We enjoy festive overindulgence 
for a little too long, and we find it hard to exercise or eat healthily when it’s cold and dark outside, and 
all we really want to do is cuddle up on the sofa with a big box of chocolates. 

While no one will begrudge you a few weeks of rest for Christmas, the longer it takes you to get back 
to a healthy lifestyle, or make improvements, the harder it will be. And the longer you go on eating 
and drinking what you want and avoiding exercise, the more damage you are likely to do to your body. 
With that in mind, here are some of the things that you can do to kick start your health and fitness 
plans.

Deal with Bigger Issues

Ask yourself if anything is holding you back? 
Do you need help from one of the best rehab centres in the UK? Or to see your GP about other 
worrying symptoms? Do you have injuries that require treatment or you to adapt your plans and 
goals? If a health or fitness issue is holding you back, deal with it asap. Don’t let it become an excuse. 

Give Yourself a Start Date

If we let it, Christmas overindulgence could go on forever. The chocolates and treats might not run out 
for weeks, and it’s all too easy to restock if you want to. So, give yourself a start date. This might be 
the day that you return to work, or when you take the Christmas decorations down. Set it now, knowing 
that the day before is your last day, and make the most of it. 

Try a New Exercise

A New Year is an excellent excuse to try new things.  
Gyms and health centres tend to be much busier in January as new members flock in with great 
intentions. But, trying something specific can be a better way to motivate yourself. Look at local 
exercise classes for something that you might enjoy. 

Try an Activity Tracker

January sales could be a great time to make savings on an activity tracker if you need some extra help. 
A good tracker doesn’t just monitor steps. It also tracks heart rate, activity minutes, and sleep, which 
can help you to set goals and stick to training programs. 

Make Small, Sustainable Changes

Don’t try to make massive changes that you couldn’t possibly stick to. Instead, be realistic. Aim to go 
to one exercise class a week, and just focus on walking more the rest of the time. Try to reduce 
processed food in your diet, or to drink more water. Make realistic and sustainable changes.

Pentru cumnatele mele voi lua tot parfumuri si pentru una din ele si un set Wella Professionals Invigo Nutri-Enrich. Cu vreo trei ani in urma i-am mai luat un set si i-a placut foarte mult, asa ca o sa fie cu siguranta o surpriza placuta.
Tot ea isi doreste si un parfum Scandal de la Jean Paul Gaultier si stiu sigur ca nu si l-a luat inca. Un parfum dulce si indraznet care mi-a placut si mie insa inca nu ma identific cu el.
Sticluta arata oricum intr-un mare fel, perfecta pentru a sugera numele parfumului. Daca aveti prietene/iubite/surori care sunt fane, sa stiti ca il gasiti pe Notino, 80 ml la 349 RON.
Pentru tinere domnisoare care au inceput sa cocheteze cu machiajul insa totusi nu folosesc multe produse, cred ca un set de Lip Smacker Coca Cola ar fi un cadou frumos si inedit. Daca cola este bautura ei preferata, cu atat mai mult va aprecia cadoul.
Un cadou reusit pentru o sora/prietena/nasa ar fi si un set de Yankee Candle. Asta daca stii ca ii plac parfumurile pentru casa :)
Pentru sot/frate/tata/prieten gasiti multe idei de cadouri pentru barbati  pe notino. Anul acesta m-am rezumat la seturi de barbierit si parfumuri pentru barbatii din familie.
