My routine starts with thorough makeup removal—a non-negotiable step. After cleansing, I apply Sanoflore's Aqua Magnifica morning and evening, followed by a hydrating serum and cream. I'm currently obsessed with Roger & Gallet's Aura Mirabilis line. Evenings often include a nourishing night mask. I adapt products to the seasons: richer textures in winter, lightweight ones with SPF in summer.
I prioritize hair care! I avoid excessive styling like curling or teasing, and treat it with every shampoo. Weekly, I apply a deep-conditioning mask. I choose formulas for dry, brittle hair, such as Phyto's Phytokeratin range. For shine, I finish with a light hairspray mist. On color, I enhance my natural shade with subtle reflections—copper tones lately.
Eyes are my focus: eyebrows and mascara are musts. Browshape Color Gel from Atelier du Sourcil and Dior's Diorshow Iconic mascara deliver intensity. Daily, I conceal redness and imperfections locally, then set with loose powder. For longevity, I use La Roche-Posay's Novalip Duo moisturizing lipstick. Daytime favors deep reds near brown; evenings call for bold true red.
Two standouts: Calvin Klein's Euphoria, my signature since age 15, and Bulgari's Eau Parfumée au Thé Blanc, perfect for summer.
I'm not 100% organic, but I'm committed. I prioritize organic fruits, vegetables, juices, and local fresh foods. Organic cosmetics are a go, though suitable makeup is trickier. I sort packaging diligently and bike around Lyon whenever possible. Collective small efforts make a real impact.
Blessed with a naturally slim build, I still balance indulgences—like a light soup or salad dinner after a big lunch. I gym twice weekly for strength training, fitness, or cardio ('maintenance sport'). For fun, I love skiing year-round and running.
Yes, I once told my parents I wanted to be a surgeon. It faded then returned—caring for others suits me, including humanitarian work. Miss France exposed new worlds; now, I focus on prevention via my image and blog, L'effervessence.
To stay connected and share expertise: few blogs blend health advice with medical insight. Readers love my stories. I post weekly, collaborating with medical pros (I'm in year 5). Ideas stem from internships and studies—I've got two years' worth!
Everything! It honored my grandmother's dream and followed a grueling med school year. From tomboy to embracing femininity, it broadened my world—from Mâcon to Paris—and shaped my future vision.
Meeting charismatic Bernadette Chirac at Les Pièces Jaunes was inspiring. Miss World was transformative: a month of English, bonding with 126 women worldwide. Their stories of hardship highlighted my privileges; France's elegance wowed them.
Grow the blog—plenty more to share—while finishing med school (internship post-year 6). I'd love to blend it with professional training, maybe a radio segment. Time is my biggest challenge!
