This is my beauty blog, there are many beauty blogs but this one is mine.
My name's Delphine and I'm a thirty something, mom of three. Need to know more? read on and hang on tight, the road's been bumpy lately but there's smooth paved road up ahead.
I'll have a picture of me up here at some point and maybe some more talk to entertain you.

I’ve FALL-en for Lancôme’s newest mascara, Ôscillation. A unique mascara that provides a 360-degree coat around each and every lash. No less than 7,000 vibrations per minute will get lashes batting for sure.
The development team was led by Jean-Louis Guéret, the designer of all Lancôme mascara brushes. With an impressive resume of almost 400 mascara brushes under his [...]

Anastasia’s Brow Gel is a clear gel that keeps your eyebrows looking good all day. When I was in High School I used clear mascara to keep my eyebrows in place. The experience was not without incident, most of the time the formula would flake up or get stiff as a board. Not the look I was going [...]
Pond’s, original clean, wet cleansing towelettes
I received these quite some time ago and just haven’t got around to writing this post. I keep these by my bed for when I’m too lazy to get up and wash my face at night. They’re super convenient, come in a plastic baggie so as you use them up [...]

My personal favorite Redpoint item, Airbrush Effects Blushwhip is a light and airy blush. The color is a perfect dewy glow.
The packaging is bulkier than I personally prefer, a tub inside a larger container, but it’s perfect for your home vanity. The color can’t be beat, a nice corally tone with flecks. I use just one layer [...]
NARS Divine Duo Eyeshadow Darling, Pink and Brown, vibrant do I dare to wear?! I’ve experimented a bit and I like it as a thin wash of pink color. I put pink on the lid and the brown in the crease. I’ll try from scratch some day soon. Have I mentioned, my camera is busted, seems a lot [...]
Redpoint’s Rejuvenating Bronzing Silk comes in a gorgeous red compact. I love the weight of it, luxury, finery whatever you call the things you love, this is it. I’ve used the bronzing powder a few times for the purpose of this test but truth be told, I generally use bronzing powder in the dead of [...]
This is my current must have! First moisturizer, then Smashbox Photo Op Under eye Brightener, then Stila’s Illuminating Foundation. I haven’t been getting much sleep lately, with the sun setting so much later, I lose track of time and the kids stay up later which pushes everything else, i.e. blogging, later into the night.
That’s where Photo [...]

A beauty blog fairytale...
Once upon a time, not too long ago, a lady was tired of talking heads that didn't get her lifestyle. She longed for one place where she could record her thoughts on the many wonderful products that came into her life and made it better (or worst).
Far from obsessive, cosmetics are only an enhancement to an already full fruitful life.
Originally inspired by the tea she drank and steeped constantly, now the best part of waking up is a steamy, frothy espresso. So she may be a little fickle with her beverages!
Steeping Beauty has a soft spot for all things beautiful.
- skincare
- fragrance
- hair care
- nails
As well as all things culturally significant to her favorite far far away lands... France, Brazil, Japan, USA. Let's see where this less than perfect princess will step...
xoxo
