Hello everyone!

(Á Íslensku neðar)

Here is part two of my favourite summer products..!

Skin Perfection anti-tiredness day cream by L’Oréal.IMG_1605+

I did a whole post dedicated to this product. It does everything that it promises while hydrating the skin all day. I don’t know if there it has any SPF in it, it doesn’t say on the product. I was working a lot this summer and it made such a difference in my appearance. This is I really good alternative to foundation and is a total must if you have pale skin.

Favourite summer products 2015 pt 1

Hello everyone!

Summer is coming to an end and so the time has come to talk about my favourite products over the last months. These are products that I feel defined my summer. I might do a more detailed review about some of these items later on. Please let me know if you see a product you’d like to know more about. Some of these items are new while others are ones I have repurchased a few times. Most of these items have a really good staying power which I find so important. Since I have so many products to talk about I will be cutting this post into two parts. I did the same with the autumn trends just so someone other than me can actually get through it. Now I’ll get to it!

False Lash Effect Fusion, volume and length by Max Factor.
This mascara is so great and for a good part of the summer was my go to mascara. I don’t feel that it gives great length but it gives amazing volume. It combs each lash individually and it stays put all day every day. This is my third tube(almost empty) and I will be buying it again.

ColorElixir, Color Sensation – in the colour Alluring Coral (400) by Maybelline.
This is summer in a jar. This shade is a bright orange with a pink undertone.(the photos do not do it justice) The colour is so bright that sometimes I think it might glow in the dark. It has a faint pleasant smell to it. It’s very pigmented and shiny. The shine wears off eventually but the stain remains for a long time. It doesn’t crease which I like a lot. It’s just so fabulous.

Color Tattoo by Maybelline

Hello everyone!

(Á Íslensku neðar)

To go deeper into the fall trend about metallic eye shadows I want to talk about yet another Maybelline product (no I’m not sponsored). The Color Tattoo 24HR eyeshadows. These come in a variation of shades, matte, metallic or shiny. I’m going to show you my favourite three colours and tell you a bit about them. They are all beautiful on their own but they are also a great base for eye shadow instead of a primer since they are creamy and grab well to the powder shadows.

Trends for the upcoming autumn 2015 pt 2

Hello everyone

(Á Íslensku neðar)

Today I will be talking about some more autumn trends, as this is part two. What I really like is that bright skin is going to be everywhere. Highlighting and bringing attention to the cheekbones and beautiful healthy skin. Oh yes I am a big fan! Well here is part 2 enjoy!

Graphic and fishtail eyeliner.

What we will be seeing alot is that the cat eyeliner is slowly becoming less populare. This coming season is perfect to try out the fishtail style. If you are very brave you can go for graphic eyeliner which has been spotted a lot on the fall runway shows. Personally I think the fishtail look is pretty with a split wing that it gives you the look of fuller and longer lashes.  It’s relatively easy to master and as always, practise makes perfect.

Skin perfection! No need for foundation anymore?

Hello everyone!

(Á Íslensku neðar)

Today i want to introduce you to something special. It’s advertised as a moisturizer but to me this product is so much more. L’Oréal’s SkinPerfection beautifying day cream. Now the first thing that caught my eye was the packaging. It’s so pretty and bright in neon pink and orange ombre tube with a metalic pink cap. I have to admit that I did no research on this before I bought it. It just looked really cool so I thought I’d give it a chance, since L’Oréal hasn’t let me down. I was on my way to work and I was running a bit late so I didn’t IMG_1463have any makeup on so i grabbed it with me. I tried it as soon as I got to work (wasn‘t late after all) and I have never tried anything like it.

Now as I mentioned in an earlier post, I’ve been lazy with foundation lately. Continue reading “Skin perfection! No need for foundation anymore?”
