Can you believe it ? Already a year?
I just wanted to thank everyone for supporting Coup de Coeur!
I started this blog as a way to unwind from studying, grading and constantly reading and I never imagined that I would meet wonderful people and make new friendships!
I would like to thank especially EvaDiva for inspiring me to start this blog, Seymone for being the first commenter and pushing me to do FOTDs as well as Mademoiselle Lola and B for always helping me with my make up skills and listening to me.
This year I would like to bring more FOTDS as I hone my application skills and I just want to thank Jen and Erin for inspiring me every day and showing us that women of color can rock any look!!
In celebration of Coup de Coeur 1st anniversary, I wanted to share some of my favorite products in a giveaway :)

I second the YouTube makeup tutorials(something I am also trying to learn). You and I have the same complexion and I need to get back to wearing my makeup. So I am looking to you to see what will look great on for my skin tone:)
Yeah!!! First of all a big congrats on your blog Anniversary. I love reading your blog and really love the way you describe products for us to see.
I would love to see more recipes.lol I love your baking and everything recipes. Hopefully would celebrate with you on your two year Anniversary as well. Cheers!!!

@everyone:Wow! I am taking notes! Thank you so much for the feedback. Hugs
Congratulations on your 1 year blogiversary!
I think you should open the contest up to Canadians...after all, Canada isn't that far away ;)
All the best!
@Good naija:that's a great idea! I actually even opened it to France. I do have a few readers in African countries but then I'll spend more on shipping (DHL) and i am kinda on a budget..thank you for the suggestion mama :)
Bon Anniversaire Coup de Coeur!!
As a relatively new reader to your blog I can't wait to see more reviews in the future! My fav posts so far are your hidden finds in the Etsy arena, I've added most to my fav collection;-). You've also inspired me to try my hand at makeup again, color always scares me, but I'm willing to give it a try once again.
awww happy blogaversary! i think you've come so far hon...and you've kept that glow about you that we all know and love. i'd love to see more of your home made creations...so inspiring!
happy nappy folk

What Ummie'd like to see?:
How to YouTube
**walkin away with a shimmy and a shake**
I've been a lurker but reading your blog for a while now, and just made comments recently. What I like about your blog are the product reviews and I'd like to see more of those along with step-by-step how-tos for makeup techniques. Happy Blogaversary!
Un an deja! C'est fou comme le temps passe vite quand on s'amuse. Toutes mes felicitations Amina! Je suis hyper fiere de toi. Ton site est une vraie mine d'or en matiere de decouvertes de produits hors normes. Ca donne envie de simplifier et de purifier ses soins de beaute. Je te remercie encore pour tes huiles qui m'aide a me sentir plus belle de maniere quotidienne. Gros bisous ma belle!
"Ebene"
J'aime le design global du site, et l'encart à droite avec les produits qui sont mis en avant. Je suis également une testeuse de produits en tout genre donc ton site est une source d'inspiration inépuisable pour moi...seul souci mon porte-monnaie ne suit pas toujours.
Ce que j'aimerai voir plus: des Guests. Je trouve ça rafraichissant de découvrir d'autres naturelles.
Bonne continuation
Hey you, I get your new posts through Bloglines and I love seeing what you're up to. Not sure what I'd like to see more of, I think your blog is fine as it is. Still waiting on the popsicle bar recipe though...
Happy One Year Amina! Youre cute as a button!

Aww Happy belated birthday to your blog. Your beauty tips are great and I wonder how you have time to try all this wonderful products, woow you should open your own store! I especially love the personal posts and pictures . Congrats again on your 1 year anniversary
Congrats! I love the homemade food and bath/beauty products that you make at times. It gives me ideas for gifts for others. I also like you reviews on etsy sellers. I would like to get even more info on unique and affordable accessories (earrings, bracelets etc)
congrats amina. i love the recipes for food. it makes me want to cook even though i am lazy. i like everything about your blog. you buy lots of products so maybe some more reviews or something like that....
your blog is already great though
I’m all late but happy blog birthday! What do I not love about Coup de Coeur! My fave thing about this place is your spotlight on new products that I would have never heard about or thought about. Every wash day my hair thanks you because of Chargrin Valley which is hands down my best find of 08 and my fave hair product overall. Plus you’re just a sweetheart and that comes through!!
happy belated birthday amina! hope the next year of blogging brings you joy and new friends. as far your blog, love it the way it is. i'm acutally new to it and i really like everything you do.
Hey sweetie, I am sooo proud of u and you have been an inspiration to me as well!!! I have been less lazy thanks to all ur reminders! lol
Keep up the good work...
XoXo
