The Wednesday’ series of “Barefoot in Luxembourg meets people” today has one of the youngest protagonist, Nathalie, a stunning and sweet blogger who is studying to be a make-up artist. I spent with her couple of hours last week end and, together with the interview, she gave me some extremely useful tips about my make-up.

Hello Nathalie, and welcome to Barefoot in Luxembourg. Do you want to quickly introduce yourself?
My name is Nathalie, I am 20 years old now and I live in Luxembourg with my parents and my brother in Bettembourg. I go to the gymnasium in Esch-sur-Alzette and afterwards I would like to study to become a professional make-up artist.

So, make-up is your passion and you have a very nice blog about it. How long ago did you start blogging?
That’s not too long ago, it is like eight months now. Before I actually wasn’t quite sure to share my make-up works because I was insecure about the things I did and I was kind of scared of people reaction. Then I talked with some friends and they just told me: go ahead and do it.. and so, here I am.

What do you like most about make-up and blogging about make-up?
I love make-up myself and other people as it makes me feel really good and blogging is just a way to share it and it is amazing how happy I feel when I give people advices.
At the moment I am preparing my portfolio for applying at professional make-up school, therefore blogging is also a way to do it on a daily basis and to have some feedbacks about my work.

That’s great. Moving now to your life, what do you like about being in Luxembourg?
Luxembourg is so cozy. When you travel to other countries, like even Germany, I feel like it is more stressful. Here I have the impression everybody knows everybody basically, so it is like a “big family“, while in other countries you just feel a stranger.

And you have a favorite place in Luxembourg?
I really love the MUDAM museum and the Drai Eechelen museum park, it is just so pretty there, where modern and old are melted together in a unique space.

What about going out: what is your favorite restaurant?
I really like sushi and I think the best sushi place in Luxembourg is Bamboo Garden – Neo Tokyo, in Hollerich area. It is not looking that good from the outside, but I can ensure you the sushi is delicious there.

And for nightlife?
I used to like M Club pretty much in the past but lately I find I am getting too old for this place, I prefer now to go to café, I really like Frenchie.

If you have to find an adjective to describe Luxembourg, what would it be?
I would say cozy.
