My everyday makeup

 Hey!

I just want to share my recent everyday makeup routine :)

 The first, I never use a foundation as I simply don’t like the feeling of it on my skin. So I go straight to concealers. I use two: Maybelline DreamLumi Touch Highlighting Concealer in the shade 01 Ivory for under my eyes area and I use Catrice Camouflage Cream  in the shade 010 Ivory. I use two because the second one has a high coverage and it’s too heavy for under eyes area and the first one has too light coverage to cover any pimples :) So I firstly I use Maybelline concealer to hide my dark circles and then go ahead with the Catrice one to hide any imperfections all over my face.

Then I set it with Bourjois Healthy Balance Powder in the shade 52 Vanilla. It says “10hrs Matt Finish & Natural Healthy Glow”. I’ll say that it can stay for even longer as most of the days I do my makeup in the morning and gat home only late in the evening so it’s like 12+ hours of wearing makeup and in the end of the day I still don’t get that shinny face as I usually have. So this is one of my favourite powders I’ve ever used :)

 Then I move to my eyes area. I use Maybelline BrowSatin in the shade Dark Blonde. I was such an idiot when I bought it in this shade.. It’s too yellowy for my eyebrows but I like the pencil and that weird sponge end that I use it nevertheless. I just quickly fill my eyebrows in and brush them through with a spoolie.

For a base colour I use my favourite Maybelline Color Tattoo 24 hours in the shade 91 Crème de Rose. I just apply it with my finger all over the eyelid and that’s all :)

Then I use Rimmel Scandaleyes Waterproof Kohl Kajal in the shade 003 Brown. It’s been in my makeup bag for sooooo lond because I never used it for some reason. Now I use it more and more to line my upper lash line. I don’t do any flick as I have vey watering eyes especially when the air is dry and It is dry so I’ll just end up with smudged flicks…

And to finish my eyes I curl my lashes and apply Maybelline(too much Maybelline in this post, hah) The Falsies Push Up Drama Mascara. It’s nice but a little bit watery. I bought it recently so can’t say much. I just like it so far, not too much but do.

 When it comes to lips, I like to scrub them in the morning with Lush The Kiss Lip Scrub. It’s from their St.Valentine’s Day collection. It’s very first time I tried lip scrubs in my life and I really enjoy using it. After the scrub I apply some sort of lip balm. Now I use Nivea Coconut Lip Butter. It’s sooo nice and soft.. And the scent…mmm.. Love it :)

I usually apply any kind of lipstick only right before I leave the house and it can be different. Sometimes I even forget to apply anything at all :)

Then I finish my face with Divage Velvet Blush in the shade #8703. It’s a nice rosy peach shade which I love for spring/summer time. It’s pretty pigmented so I need to be very careful with it or I’ll look like a clown :)

And I started falling into highlighters. I have only one in my Sleek Face Form Palette in the shade Light 373. It’s a very nice and settle highlighter which looks very pretty on cheekbones :)

And that’s it!

Hope you like it :)

Tell my about your everyday makeup routines, I would love to know!

Ciao!

Autumn Emties 2014

Hi, humans!

Ok, I disappered again for a whole month. As usual :)

Anyway, I'm back with another empties post. As you can see I have quite a lot. Let's go through it!

Body/face care:

1. Garnier 2-in-1 Make-up Remover. It's one of those two-layered removers that you need to shake before using. I actually like this concept but I absolutly dislike this particular one. It took forever to remove my eye make up and using it I had to use an eye cream for the first time because my skin was very dry after this. Very disappointed.

2. Eveline 3-in-1 Mecelar water. No, I'm not a fan of multi-tasking thing, this one my mum bought me. I hadn't tried any products from this brand and I don't think I would. Neither work as make-up remover nor tonic. Didn't like it all.

3. Garnier Clear Skin 3-in-1. This think should work as a gel, scrub and mask. I liked it as a gel and scrub but when I tried it as a mask, my skin started to burn! I don't know if it was supposed to act like this but I didn't use it as mask ever again :) But as a scrub it's worked pretty well. I haven't had much problems with my skin recently bt still I felt that my skin felt more refreshed plus I used it at night so it washed off the rest of my make up which is always good :)

4. Nivea Daily Moistrizer. As i remember it's my second pack of this particular cream and I love it. I believe that it's quite natural so it's a huge plus. Also it works very nicely on skin. It absorbs very fast so it's ok to apply before make up. And my skin feels so good after it. Always loved Nivea products and this one is not an exception.

5. Organic Shop Rasberry & Sugar Body Polish. This thing is heaven for your skin! Oh my God, I love it so much and already repurchased it. My skin have never felt so soft before. And the smell.... Oh Gosh, it's sooooooo good. During the summer I used it almost every day because I'm so in love with the smel and soft feeling after it. It's definitely my all time favourite body product!

6. Organic Shop Bath Foam Caribbean Fruit Cocktail. I'm not a bath person but this summer I had some time all alone at home and wanted to relax a little bit and made myself a bath. And I realised that I actually need to take baths from time to time to clear up my mind. And I started trying different products. And I tried this one for some reasons: 1). it's organic(I'm crazy about organic products), 2). it smells really good, 3). it's a foam, what can be good? Anyway I loved it even though it takes quite some time to use it.

7. Wild Siberica Foot Cream. I'm still trying new organic brands that I can find in our stores. This is a new one I've tried and I'm not impressed. To really moistrize foot you need rather a lot of this product so it ran out very fast.

8. Wild Siberica Hand Cream. The same problem as with the foot cream: you need to apply a lot to feel any difference. Don't think I'll buy it ever again.

9. Planeta Organica Organic Oblepikha Hand Cream. It's actually my favourite organic brand I've tried. It's really moistrizing, smells good and it's really cheap. Only pluses :)

10. Planeta Organica Organic Shea Foot Cream. It's my favourite foot crean I've ever tried. Soooo moistrizing, smells sooooo good... Just the best :)

11. Nivea Invisible Antiperspirant 48 hours. I bought and used up 2 packs of this and with the second one I realised that I didn't like it that much as I thought. The first one worked pretty well even though it's not invisible which is very disappointed because I like to wear my "lucky" dress and it's dark blue so I always have those terrible white spots from deodorant and it's so annoying. I'm still looking for a good one. Any suggestions?:)

Hair care:

1. Yves Rocher Volumizing Shampoo with Mallow. I didn't like it at all. I didn't see any volume. Well, maybe it didn't work for my hair because I have dry hair? Who knows. Anyway I didn't like it.

2. Schwarzkopf Gliss Kur Oil Elixir. I've already written about this product over here. If you want, check it there :)

3. Yves Rocher Reparing Conditioner. I totally forgot that I wrote about it in my summer empties post. So read it there :)

Make up:

1. Rimmel Stay Matte Powder. Everybody talk about it all over the internet and I tried it and I love it. I've already bought the second one :) I have the shade 005 Silky Beige, if you're wondering. Great powder that really makes your skin look matte for quite long time. I have oily skin only in the T-zone so I apply powder only there so it took me a year to use up this pack, the new one may take me even longer. The only minus it's the size of a packaging. Not very handy to carry in a small make-up bag. But the rest is great :)

2. Zara Los Angeles Parfum. I love this scent! I used it all summer and I want to buy a big one because it's great, really love it and want to use all yaer around :)

3. MaXfactor Mastertouch Under-eye Concealer. Actually as you can see I haven't used it up completely but I wanted to include it in this post. You see that I don't have it that much rest and it's been only 2 weeks as I'm using it. Can you imagine how fast it goes?! One more week and it's done! Terrible product. It doesn't even have that mush coverage and you need rather a lot to cover at least under-eye dark circles. Don't buy it, I would say. And it's the shade 306 Fair.

4. L'Oreal Alliance Perfect Concealer. This cocealer I liked a lot. It has very nice coverage it lasted 3 months which is great I believe. The consistence is very creamy, gives a very nise feeling. I used the shade 3 Cream. If I have troubles with finding something better, I can always come back to this one.

5. L'Oreal Volume Millions Lashes So Couture Mascara. The lady in shop told me it's a great latest mascara by L'Oreal, one of the best. And I believed her. Don't believe those ladies anymore. Well it's not that bad but also isn't that good. But for some reasons in all shops it's said that it's one of the best you can buy by L'Oreal. So I come back to Rimmel mascaras :) Anyway, it's not the best but nort the worst but it didn't worth the money I paid for it.

Wow, that's a lot of writing. Hope you're not too lazy to read it :)

Hope, you're having a great time. And I'm going to post much more this month. I made a list with posts I want to write so it's gonna be a good month, I hope :)

Ciao!

Empties Summer 2014

Hi, humans!

I don't know about you but I love watching posts and videos about products people have used up. Only ib this case you can know the real opinion about products.

I'm this kind of people who doesn't throw away things they don't like that much. So I have some products I really enjoyed using and some I didn't. Let's begin :)

Let's start with face care products. I don't have much because I often forget to save empty bottles... 

So, the first it's Nivea Cleanser. I love Nivea so much but this product disappointed me so much... I didn't notice any difference using it.. It doesn't wash off the rest of a make up, it doesn't clear pores, I don't even know what it does.... So, I don't recommend that.

Next it's Nivea moistryzer. This stuff is soooooo moisturizing, even way too much. It takes ages to wait until it's finally dry and you can apply your make up. But for night it's really good to repair your skin after sun or make up or any other bad things that can spoil your skin. It depends on what you desire to have. Just keep in mind it's veeeeeery moisturizing, like really, veeeery moisturizing :)

Then, you see two packs of the same moisturizer by Yves Rocher. The first I bought only because of the sticker on top, it's so nice and a little bit vintage. But the cream by itself is not that nice. Like the Nivea one it takes ages to wait until it's dry but it doesn't moisturise that much. I don't understand what's happening but I keep getting disappointed by my favourite brands. I really like Yves Rocher but lately it doen't impress me that much... The second pack I got from my mum on New Year.

Now let's talk about other skin care products.

The first it's Planeta Organica Organic Oblepikha Body Cream. The first I want to mention that before it I haven't used any body creams ot lotions. But this one changed my mind! It's sooooooooo good, the smell is amazing! And it makes my skin so soft. Plus it's organic and I'm a little obsessed with organic skin care products. I'm not sure but I believe it's russian brand that makes me fell a little bit proud :)

Then I have two Yves Rocher creams(my mum gave me a big kit of different Yves Rocher products): hand and foot creams. And it looks weird, I know, but I cat some cream tubes to get the most of the products. I really loved the hand cream! It's really nice, the smell is good, the consistence is pleasant for skin. My hands feel much better and softer :) The foot cream is nice but that's all. Not that impressive. I saw the price for this little tube and I was a little suprised that it's rather expensive but it doesn't worth it, I think. And it's tiny. That's not that convenient.

And the last here it's Nivea Deoderent Powder Effect. The first time I applied it I was a little bit confused by the smell(yes, I talk way too much about smells ans scents :). I felt like I applied some kind of baby powder and I smelled it so strongly, I thought that everybody could smelled it too. But then I got used to it and ended up liking it. It protects from sweating quite well, I have a huge problem with it, very few deodorants help mt but this one does.

Now, hair care. I have only one product I wanted to share with you. It's a Repair Conditioner by Yves Rocher. And Oh My God! That's my love till the rest of my life. I will repurchase it over and over again untill it's in stock. This is a miracle for my hair! They never felt that soft before. Don't even know what to add... Just the best hair product I know so far :)

Time for some make up :)

I've already thrown away the package and I don't remember the exact name of my tone, but it's a MaXfactor Cream Puff powder in shade №41 something beige :) It was the second or the third powder I've ever owned and it's pretty nice. It has a good coverage but rather strong smell... I don't know why.. It's nice but a little bit annoying. I can't say much actually because I started getting into make up only couple months ago and this had been already used up. I remember that it was pretty cheap compare to other MaXfactor's powders. For that money it's a very nice powder.

Mascara time! I'm a little bit crazy about mascaras... As you can see I have three empty bottles :) Let's talk about each one :)

The first it's Bourjois Volume Glamour Max. What can I say... I like the brush, I actually love exactly this type of brushes. But in this case it's not the best... I was disappointed by this mascara... Bourjois is one of the most expensivedrugstore btands and I decided to check out at least their mascara and I'm honestly not sure if I want to try any of its produsts because recentlu I've read a lot of bad reviews about their products. Don't mean that it is a very bad brand but I didn't like that mascara, that's the main over here.

Next it's Rimmel Scandal Eyes Lycra Flex. And I'm in love with it! Rimmel is one of the cheapest drugstore brands and this mascara was one of the heapest in the whole shop and it's one the best I've ever tried. The brush is amazing, it gives a good length, good volume, it separates really nicely. Just everything you need from mascara. Want to buy it again after I use up my current mascara.

The last here is L'Oreal False Lash Papillon. I heard so many good reviews about this mascara and can you imagine how upset I was when it turned out to be one of the worst mascara I've ever tried? Really, why do people compliment it so much? I can't get it. I didn't gat any length, any volume, any separation. My lashes looked so weird after applying it. I didn't expect it. L'Oreal is a quite nice brand, as you know, I love their eyeliner, but this mascara wasn't good for me. Unfortunately.

I guess I've mentioned it in my L'Oreal's eyeliner Review. I used up at least three of them. And it's not because I'm so in love with but because I couldn't find better.And it really annoyed me so much. It's a nice eyeliner but the very end of the applicator dries so fast. I can use it for month or something like this and no more. Then it gets really hard to apply it normally even though there are so much more product inside and it just pisses me off! But in the same time when it's new it's such a nice eyeliner, cheaper then L'Oreal one but still good. I don't have a common opinion about this product.. It's love/hate relationship between this eyeliner and me :)

So that's all I've saved so far :) Hope you enloyed such a long reading :) I don't usually write that much bit I had some inspiration.

Have a nice day :)

Ciao!

Spring(almost summer) Beauty Haul 2014

I love watching diffrient hauls and now I want to share my own :)

The best way to find something new it's to read someone's review and that's why I'm doing it :)

1. Schwarzkopf Gliss Kur Oil Elixir

This stuff is amazing! I have very dry hair even though I don't use any heat at all and this oil helps me a lot. I apply it after I wash my hair and dry it a little bit with a towel and it makes my hair so soft, I absolutely love it! My friend was telling me that it's not natural and gonna spoil my hair but seriously, don't think about it. It works, that's what important :)

2. Nivea Daily Face Moistrurizer

It's the second time I buy this cream and this is so good! It moistens, smells really nice, drys quickly, just very good stuff for your skin and it's Nivea. I personately love this brand, it has a very long history, they know how to take care about your skin and it's not expensive at all. I will repurchase it over and over again :)

3. Figs&Rouge 100% Natural Aloe and Mint Multi-Tasking Lip Balm

I purchased it online on feelunique.com and recieved it only yesterday so I can't say much about it... It's natural, smells very nice, feels good on my lips, the packaging is very nice like vintage and I love it(it was one of the reasons I ordered it ;). It says "Balm for lips, face, hands and body" what is great :)

4. Essie Nail Polish in shade "Lilacism"

Essie it's Essie, very good nail polish as always :) The colour is nice, definitely goona be my favourite of this month :)

These are small palette and face brush for the brand "Just Make-Up". The seller said it's Korean brand bt I'm not sure... Anyway, the eyeshadows are very pigmented  and the brush is sooooo soft, just in love with it. I really want MAC eyeshadows but in the moment I just can't effort it.. So that's a nice alternative :)

Now let's talk about my favourite lipsticks :) Rimmel Lasting Finish by Kate Moss. As you can see I love them. It's the whole new line that I have in my stores and they are amazing. I've been looking foe such colours like forever and found in one place :) I didn't buy them all in the same time, you can notice that I'm currently using shade 32, the peachy one, it's my everyday lipstick right now ;) They are all amazing, no shine, no glitter, just how I love and they are quiet cheap, that's the plus :)

And last but not least, Tanya Burr lipgloss in shade "Picnic in the Park". I'm not a fan of lipglosses, I prefer just a lip balm and somethimes lipstick but I really wanted to try Tanya's collection and I love it! I think I'm gonna use it a lot this summer and maybe order some more from her collection :) Again, I ordered it on feelunique.com. It also has an amazing scent like berries or something like that, it remind's me some sweet from my childhood :) It also says "Super moisturising" and it is! Definitely check them out :)

I hope it'll be usefull for someone :)

Ciao! :)

Drugstore foundation: do I have any problems with my skin or how hard to find a good foundation.

I'm this kind of girl who won't spend a tone of money on make up. But anyway, I like make up. So today I'd like to tell you about a foundation problem. I was trying to find a good new foundation for about 3 years, I guess. The first foundation I've ever tried was Maybelline Affinitone and it was great. Then I bought another pack of the same foundation, but it wasn't good. I decided to find smth new. Here're my last attempts(which I don't know why decided to save):

1. Maxfactor Smooth Effect in shade #55 Buff Beige

2. L'Oreal Alliance Perfect in shade #R3-C3 Rose Beige

3. Rimmel Stay Matte in shade #100 Ivory

4. Garnier BB Cream in shade "Light"

5. Maybelline BB Cream in shade "Light"

1. Maxfactor's foundation is old(I bought it without checking the date), so it's dry, looks and feels terrible on my skin, although the shade is pretty good for my complection. Unfortunately, no.

2. L'oreal's foundation is the best that I have right now. I heard about it on youtube and the girl said that it's pretty close to Bobbi Brown's one, so I went straight to the shop and bought it. I don't know if it's really close to Boobi Brown's one, but it works for me very well. Definitely yes.

3. Rimmel's foundation was good for some time, but then I didn't use any foundation for a month and when I tried this one on my face it looked aweful. I don't know what's happened to my skin, but it became dry, I had even some redness after applying it. After that I haven't use any of Rimmel's products for some time, but now I like this brand. But for foundations, no.

4-5. I definitely don't understand people who love BB creams. Or I have a weird type of skin that doesn't like such things, but I don't see any difference between when I apply BB creams and when I have nothing on my face. I tried these two several times, thinking that something can change, but no. It doesn't work for me. No.

I hope it can be useful for someone. Also, I'm always open for any suggestions :)

Have a good day :)
