Hi there!
As the weather’s getting colder and the leaves are
changing colour, it’s time to breathe new life into our make up bags! I
just wanted to share some bits and bobs with you I’ve found myself using
a lot at this time of the year concerning make up!
My
by far favourite product this autumn is probably this eye candy (Hahaha
get the joke? No, not funny? Nope. Okay.) by Catrice in colour 570 Plum up the jam.
I’ve had this since a year now but never really used it, I found it
wasn’t very nice to apply, I didn’t like the colour and in general was
very disappointed in such a good brand. My problem was that I didn’t use
it in the right way and- due to the lovely plum shade- looked like
someone punched me in the eye. Now that I know how to do make up (or at
least pretend to do so) I fell in love with this product. It’s a
GORGEOUS shade that really accentuates green eyes but I also imagine it
must look beautiful with all colours since I find that purpley shades
are very versatile and go with almost everything. I imagine it looking
absolutely stunning paired with a bright pink/purple shade for a more
fancy or daring look as well! Klick here to purchase this product!
Some
of you might know that I am veeeery picky when it comes to all things
covering my blemishes. I don’t want to spend a fortune, but still want
good quality, I don’t want them to make my face look cakey, but still
have high coverage,…. The list goes on and on. That’s why I’ve been
sticking to the LOOK all day long concealer for EVER! I still
think it’s a good concealer, but I always found that it doesn’t last
very long content wise. I needed to head to the shops all the time just
for that damn concealer. Not anymore, since I’ve found my new love! The stay all day 16h concealer
might even work better as I find it has higher coverage, is easier to
apply and probably lasts me a while longer. I am using it in the shade 10 natural beige and am absolutely satisfied! (It’s also a cheaper alternative to Rimmel Wake me up!) Klick here to purchase this product!
I’ve
already mentioned this lipstick in a previos post, but I decided to
show it to you again because I love it sooo much and also because this
is what I’ve beeen using on my lips mostly recently. It’s a nice nude
colour which I am eager to wear in school. It really brings out your
natural lip colour, accentuates but isn’t to fancy for school or work.
This is in colour 06 Barely there and a ‘must’ in your autumn make up bag. Klick here to puchase this product!
I
am a massive fan of essence products, I love how affordabe they are but
still offer amazing quality. I especially love their mascaras because I
really see no difference to ‘better’ brands like Maybelinne or Benefit. Oops. This one really boosts the volume and doesns’t clump at all! (And the wrapping is suuuper autumnal!!!) Klick here to purchase this product!
Yep.
Still sticking to this one. I couldn’t just not blog about this one.
One of my all time faves, you should definitely give it a try! Klick here to purchase this product!
Hello Mermaids!🐟 Since it's getting warmer, my skin is recovering from the tolls winter ❄ has taken and it's breaking out less recently. Overall I'm quite happy with my skin at the moment, in most areas of my face it is acne-free. 👧 However, I do have quite a few acne scars on both of my cheeks and some on my skin due to hormonal break outs. They are fading, but dark spots are still visible. I don't consider myself a beauty blogger, although 'beauty' is one of the topics I talk about on my blog, simply because I like it but I'm not a professional whatsoever. In February I decided to skip foundation which is probably why my skin has gotten so much better. For my everyday make-up I do a VERY minimalistic routine (because I ain't getting up earlier just to contour 🛏) and I found that it actually looks better than using foundation, concealer and whatnot. Products I start off by using my favourite moisturiser L'oreal Paris Skin Perfec
Today I thought I'd share some of my favourite Nail polishes with you since they can really add that little bit of extra to any of your outfits! In spring I find myself reaching mostly for pastels but also for vibrant and bright colours that really pop out! 1) essence nude glam: 05 cafe ole I absolutely love this colour for almost all occasions therefore I've already used up a lot of bottles! One thing I really love about essence nail polishes is that even though this specific one is not quick dry, they do dry super quickly and also start to chip quite late for such a bargain! 2) essence the GEL NAIL polish: 37 serendipity This one is actually a gel nail polish, but if you don't own their gel nail kit like me, this nail polish applies just like a normal one would and dries just as quickly as well! Plus, I absolutely love the name! 3) essence Brit - Tea nail polish: Have a beau - tea - full day Not gonna lie, I only bought this
In my opinion, how you spend your morning can have a huge impact on how the rest of your day is going. So I decided to transform a super popular video on youtube in a blog post! I'm not exactly a morning person and on weekends I love to stay in bed until midday, therefore I force myself to get up super early on week days, otherwise I feel like I'm unproductive and lazy. My alarm usually goes off at 5:45 am but I only ever manage to get out of bed at 6. Those extra 15 minutes in bed really help me to wake up though and are usually spent cuddling with my boyfriend or scrolling through social media if he hasn't woken up yet. Then I make my way downstairs to my kitchen to make myself some breakfast. I'm not very hungry that early in the morning, so most mornings I go for a casual cup of tea with some granola or a toast with some avocado mash- which I've especially been enjoying since it's getting warmer outside! Depending on the weather I either eat outside
