WHEN AT THE 50th MONTREUX JAZZ FESTIVAL

ENG I’m lucky to live in Switzerland, because summer is a season of nonstop festivals and not the least. Two weeks ago, I went to the Montreux Jazz Festival and I wanted to share this moment for the first time on my blog. For once, it’s not a post look (or just slightly) but rather about my experience. With other bloggers, we were invited by Nescafé to attend the concert of Jamie Cullum at the 50th Montreux Jazz Festival (and yes … the first edition was in 1967!). And we could enjoy the festival’s atmosphere, before and after the concert,…

MY BEARD RITUALS

 ENG As you probably know or at least you can imagine, I love my beard. It’s the apple of my eyes, it’s a part of who I am and I can’t imagine myself without it. It’s a bit cliché but I don’t care.

NESCENS

Aging is an inevitable process. The fact it’s natural, however, is not an excuse to look old while you’re still in the prime of your life (right?). To fight the aging process effectively requires adopting certain habits and adding a few products to your grooming arsenal. You don’t need a thorough anti-aging beauty regime till the signs of aging appear, which, for most people, is in their early 30’s.  Till then your skin does a pretty good job of protecting itself on its best not to meddle with that. But if you are older than 30 taking care of your…
