This is my first post about make-up which really isn't about make-up.  As you all know I a great admired of the iconic star Marilyn Monroe as well as the Victoria's Secret Angel, Candice Swanepoel. At 26, Candice is the new Max Factor's face.  Max Factor is a very well know brand and in the 30's was responsible for turning the shy brunette, Norma Jeane Mortenson (Marilyn's original name) into the radiant blonde, Marilyn Monroe. The brand celebrates this year it's 80 anniversary and chose Candice to interpret and incarnate the legend Marilyn Monroe.  Este é o meu primeiro post sobre maquilhagem, que no fundo, não é sobre maquilhagem.

I was so distracted that I haven’t noticed the magnificent show window fully decorated with Easter spirit.

Hello folks! How many steps from Diesel's resolutions have you accomplished so far? To be honest from the five steps that already had been released, in the few months that have passed since New Year, I have accomplished all of them.
