Today I'm going to talk about the products I use on a daily basis. From skincare products to blushes, we're gonna handle everything!
So, let's start with skincare. I just bought this Olaz Beauty Fluid, and it's the best cream I've ever used. Omg i can't believe I've spent all my money on expensive creams like Clarins and Lancome. This cream is only 5 freaking euros! It makes my face soft, soaks in very quikly and is a great base for my make up. So if you're searching for a cheap cream that works amazing, run fast, run really fast, and get this amazing cream at your local drugstore!
On to the make up cleanser. A couple of months ago I saw a video on Youtube from Lollipop26, she was talking about this Mac Cleanse off oil and had some great things to say about it. So i headed to the Mac counter and bought it, and I'm glad I did! It rinses of all your make up with just one swipe. It doesn't leave your face feeling thight or really dry, but very soft and nourished.
Last but not least is my Mac moisterlush eye cream. This is a very simple cream I use every night. It has no special anti wrinkle ingredients in it. Just a good moisturizing cream, that leaves your under-eye skin soft. Nothing special about this one, I'm certainly not buying it again because of the price that's 30 euros :o!
I've read some great things on Makeupalley.com about this Make up Forever Face & Body foundation. And wow, it is really great. Just like people said it looks like your own skin, just better. It does not look like you have something on and it's really light because of the gel texture it has, so your not even feeling like your wearing something.
And that brings me to my next product and that is my Make up Forever Hd Powder. Whenever I sweep this across my T-zone it makes my foundation stay on the whole day. It especially works great with the Face & Body foundation. Sweep this on and forget about your blotting papers and matte powder, your make up will stay on like a dream!
Just to bring some colour back in my face I like to use my Mac Ladyblush creamblush. It's a great base for your powder blush. But you can definitely use it on it's own. It's a pretty pink colour that will stay on the whole day.
But what I like to do is put some Benefit Coralista blush on top. This sets the Ladyblush creamblush and will stay on forever. It will give you pretty coral, pink cheeks and such a nice glow it will lift up your whole face!
And when it's really getting hot and you want to look super bronzy but not too glittery you'll need the Hoola bronzer by Benefit. It has no shimmers in it, just a simple brown colour that will make you look like you've had a Miami vacation.
Now on to the eyes, the most important part of your face. You want them to look big and beautiful. So what you need is the Benefit big beautiful eyes palette. It contains Boing concealer (which I hate, it makes your under-eye area look super dry. Don't think thats the look your going for :P), a shimmery pink and brown colour and a matte dark brown colour. I used up the pink colour so thats a sign I liked it very much. So the only thing I use from this palette is the dark brown colour to define my crease with. With some Too Faced Shadow Insurance it will stay on the whole day.
To make the eyes look even more awake and bigger I like to use the Benefit High Brow highlighter. It's just a simple matte, nude highlighter. I pop some on in the inner corner of my eye and some under the eyebrows and I am ready to go.
As an eyeliner I use the Make up Forever waterproof eyeliner pencil in number 10. And gosh, what a good eyeliner! Before i used the Mac Blacktrack gel liner, and this one creased on me like creazy! So I'm very happy with this one because it it stays on the whole day where I put it in the morning, so that's great.
We can't forget the most important part of the eyes and that are your eyelashes. Nobody wants to leave the house voluntary with no mascara on. As you might noticed I love to watch Youtube videos and I saw faffinettex3 talk about the Make up Forever Smokey lash mascara. I thought 'Ohh great for her she loved it' and forgot about it. Untill last week when i walked into the Sephora and saw they had 25% off of all the exclusive brands. I needed a new mascara so I picked this one up, and now I'm thinking why didn't I listened to Aubrey for Faffinettex3. It really makes your eyes look like you have false lashes on. And although it is not waterproof it stays on the whole day. A comparisation picture of no mascara and this one on is comming soon!
As an undereye concealer I use the Benefit erase paste in number 1. It's a brightening concealer that works great for under the eyes. It will make you look more awake in no time. With some powder on top it will stay there untill you rinse it off.
The last thing you really can't forget is your eyebrow pencil. Just like Suze said it creates the whole look. Even if your not wearing any make up because your blessed with great looking skin (wink to Suze :P) make sure your eyebrows look perfect at any time. To make mine look perfect I use the Gosh eyebrow pencil in numer 01, brown. Nothing special to say about this one, only downside is it wears off a little bit at the end of the day. When I end this one I'm definitely gonna search for a better one.
Whow this is getting really long. Sorry you guys, I'm going to try to run through the lip product quikly.
In summer I love wearing simple eye make up and some super bright lips. To create them I use some Burt and bees lip balm, it's the one with the minty smell to it. This is a great base for your lipstick, which is from Mac and is called Pink nouveau. It's a super bright pink colour. So I pet this on very lightly and put on some Laura Mercier lipgloss on called After Hours.
Omg, it's 12:30 at night, I really have to get some sleep! Nighty night you guys!
