First favourite of the Week!








Hema is a dutch company which produces everything you can imagine, from dog food to cute panties, and surprisingly everything is cheap but quite good. I am in love with some of their makeup items and brushes, and about the makeup I want to talk about their creamy eyeshadows, which come into big size double pencils. I already spotted some other colors combinations so I guess this will be the first purchase of a loooong list!
Anyway, these pencils are quite handy! First of all, the colors allow you to make a complete make up if you are in a rush, because the two colors match perfectly to make a natural make up. I actually use it much more as a base, than as real eyeshadows, for totally natural make up or for the ones with a twist. the eyeshadow is supercreamy on the lid and really easy to apply, and the light color looks perfect in the inner corner of the eyes as it gives them extra brightness and makes them look much wider.
The price is around 2,25€ which is really good for the amount of product you get and for the quality! maybe this won't be that useful for users outside the Netherlands, but if you plan a trip there just remember to look for the HEMA sign!!!

Welcome to my world!!!




Welcome everyone!


I thought it would be nice to give you an overview of the mess I have on my table everyday when I apply my makeup. First of all: the beautycase...I love it! I got it at Primark for 5€ and I totally adore it. it has a mirror in the upper part, and it's all covered in plastic inside so it's really easy to clean...


basically this is the make up I use everyday in the morning. I have to find a better setting because it's not so handy when I am in a rush...but my life is all temporary at the moment! I moved really often in the last year...and I will spend 8 more months in this flat and then move again, and so I haven't thought about a "real" setting for my makeup stuff. I can't wait to stay in one "real" flat for some time so I can relax a bit...


I will post more in detail my favourite products, for the moment you can have a quick look and notice I mostly have low-cost products for my daily makeup routine, but I think most of the ones I use have quite a good quality!


(I think you might already see some Essence, Eyeko, Avon, YR, Hema and Elf...)

I'll get back soon to you for my favourites!

Here I am, starting a blog to talk about all the fruity, glittery, sweet and nice things in life we girls enjoy...

Job and daily life will be outside the door, this blog will be my small corner for cozy moments, make up, nice food, and all the news I discover around and want to share!
But first things first: I will introduce myself! Fruity is Teresa, a 28 years old italian girl (or woman? hmm this is still not clear to me...) currently based in The Netherlands.
Loves: make-up, creativity, art, travels, sweets.
Hates: diets, waking up too early when it's still dark outside, arrogant people.

So, make yourself at home, grab a coffee or hot coco and enjoy! ♥
