From foundation to mascara here are some make-up secrets dedicated to the over 40'...... with a single attention: the illuminant. Important: it's not necessarily a question of looking younger, simply to make the most of the natural changes in our face.

A cult brand in France, much-loved by green addicts worldwide, in the last twenty years Nuxe has been synonymous with nature and luxury. Aliza Jabès, the brand founder transformed the traditional laboratory in the heart of Paris into an eco-empire spread over 50 countries. Nuxe has its own story to tell. That of an aspiration, driven by intuition. A fundamental need nurtured and followed by its founder.  

We, Parisian girls looove the spa. In Paris, it is talked about everywhere, girlfriends give each other addresses, a new place opens every week! But when we've never set foot in a spa, we wonder how to do. And French’s are crazy about etiquette… so relax ok, but stress an hour before for fear of looking like a loser, no way. A short guide to good manners could certainly be useful.

Si parla spesso dei capelli delle parigine e del modo di portarli pettinati-spettinati, una vera arte! Ma prima di ottenere questo effetto, c’è tutto un lavoro di cura che riguarda la pelle o i capelli: la parigina, la cura ce l’ha proprio nel suo dna. I nostri capelli sono spesso il barometro del nostro benessere. Allora, ecco come ottenere una capigliatura stupenda!

The Parisian man is a contradiction. He’s drawn to the “nice girl” type, but he’s also attracted to the sexy fox. So how do we strike the right balance between demure and provocative? It’s better to be innocently suggestive than openly ‘come hither”.  We need to look delicate and fresh, not plastered in makeup. In Paris, a woman’s face is fundamental when you first meet. A man’s gaze goes first to your eyes, then to your mouth and your smile. Your boobs actually come last. The first step in enticing a guy the Parisian way, is to have the right reflexes before your mirror. Here’s a quick guide.

The chignon is one of the classic hairdos. It’s smart for all occasions, a cocktail party, the next wedding or simply, as a smart solution, to show off your doll’s face and accessorize it with long earrings. The chignon bun is still “the” Parisian hairstyle of the moment: it’s feminine, fun, classic and so simple to do! Moreover, it’s sexy and men love it… For a relaxed-messy look or the sophisticated red carpet version, in Paris, nobody can resist it! Learn how to create this sophisticated style right here …


\"112\"Buy a foam volume-creating pad with a hole in the middle like a donut. Detail of elegance: choose the donut color as close as possible that of your hair and adapted to the length, thin if semi-long, thicker if long…

Make a low ponytail for the classic look of a prima ballerina or on top of your head for the trendy Kim Kardashian look.

Pass the ponytail inside the donut (see the drawing). Bring forward and arrange use your fingers to cover the pad with your hair.

Roll your hair around the volume-creating pad wedging it underneath and attach with pins stuck in the foam. Fundamental: the pad should never be visible. Elegance looks natural.

Good evening, Catherine
