My quick and easy pool side make-up look….

and happy Wednesday from Italy. We where exploring the fashion capitol Milan yesterday so after a full day of stylishly exploring and walking around we needed to relax at the pool today.


So I thought why not share my quick and easy poolside make-up favorites.


Since I never dive (I would make an exception to swim with manatees or a whale shark) I always put on make-up while at the pool. It is less and more neutral than usual but I still don´t want to be naked.

As base I am using the Maybelline dream cushion make-up in the color sand. It is a darker shade so it is great if you already have a little tan. 


To cover it up and keep it matt I am applying the L´Oréal Perfect Match translucent powder (also got the matching brush cause who doesn´t love a gorgeous mint shade).


Another summer favorite of mine is the Hoola Bronzer from Benefit. I always have one at home. It is just such a staple which gives your look some depth but is isn´t over the top. And you can apply as much as you want.


To finish my look I am using a waterproof mascara from Manhattan. The no end mascara has been a long time favorite of mine. Also have the normal formula at home. I am sticking to the mascara I love cause for me it really is a pain in the butt to find a good one.


Also who doesn´t love some color. I definitely do. I am very happy that L´Oréal came up with a sheer lip color line – the color riche shine lipstick. I got the color glazed pink and I really love it. Gives your lips a hint of color but isn´t overly pigmented. Just the right amount for the pool.

Also a good idea is too take some blotting papers with you to the pool. This way your make-up stays on and you don´t shine also you don´t have to reapply every couple hours.

And last but not least for a quick refresher I got the Biotherm L´Eau. A scented body mist. This smells so so good. My SIL used it one day we spent together and I immidiately loved it and bought it a few days later (totally forgot to picture it, sorry guys).


After talking this much about the pool we are heading to it right now. Thankfully it is right around the corner.
