My evening skincare routine – holy grail products….

….

Hi guys,

(post contains affiliate links / Werbung/Beitrag enthält Affiliate Links)
this post is a long oderdue one and I wanted to post this so long ago but never came around and there where also some last minute product changes so I wanted to make sure that I like them and want to incorporate them into my daily routine before talking ´bout them on my blog. Cause as you now I always test these kind of items before sharing with you.


Clean:
First of all I make sure my face is clean. I have been using an oil cleaner for a long time but I actually didn´t like it so I went back to my usual face wash from Garnier SkinActive. I got the all-in-1 micellar foaming face wash and also the matching cleansing water. But before I turn on the water on most days I use a make-up remover wipes to get off the main of my leftover make-up (currently using the Comodynes but I also love the Teatree Wipes from The Body Shop). After that I clean with water and my face wash. I use my cleansing water then to remove the lasts rests of make-up and to leave a fresh feel on my skin. 


To get rid of my eye make-up like mascara I am using the Garnier Skin Active 2-in-1 eye make-up remover. It is a two component formula which you have to shake first before applying so the ingredients can mix.

Also on some days I am using the Paula´s Choice Skin Balancing Oil-Reducing Cleanser. If my skin was out of balance and produced a lot of oil this day or if I have really irritated skin with blemishes and also dry spot I am using this product to get it back to normal. It is a huge bottle and in fact I should have taken the smaller one but I didn´t read the size info. So what!


Mask:
Two times a week I am using a mask after I showered. At the moment it is the pure clay clear and comfort mask from L´oreal Paris. For applying the mask I am using a make-up brush. It is way easier, the product lasts longer cause you need less and you don´t get bacterias into the pot by using your fingers. Other masks I am loving the sheet masks from Maskeraide.


Microneedle:
I hopped onto the microneedling train about two months ago and I have been using it ever since. I have the Walberg Beautyroller (similar here). I am using it twice a week (on the days where I am not masking). I roll over my face like the manual says and afterwards I am applying my hyaluronic acid (not pictured above just added this product last weekend) onto my forehead, under my eyes and around my mouth. Afterwards I am adding my Vichy Liftactiv eye creme and the skin perfection serum from L´oreal Paris.
I let this set for about five to ten minutes and then I put on my Kiehl´s Ultra Facial Oil Free Gel Creme. This is the lightest and softest face cream I have ever owned. The gel consistency is awesome. Putting it on if feels like it is melting into your skin.

Care:
Like I said above I am using the Kiehl´s face creme daily and the skin perfecting serum underneath two times a week.

On some days (when I know I might get a hormonal breakout or if I am already feeling something coming up) I am using the Clerasil Deep Treatment Pads before applying my face cream. Also if needed I spot on the Paula´s Choice Skin Perfecting 2% BHA liquid including salisylic acid. 


For eye cream I am currently using the Vichy Liftactiv which I truly love and am using for several month now.


Also I am applying a lip balm on my lips to avoid dryness. 


Do you have any products you have to use and love?

Wedding Wednesday – our engagement photos…

Keine Kommentare

….

Hi guys and happy Wedding Wednesday, 
(post contains affiliate links / Werbung/Beitrag enthält Affiliate Links)
we finally shot our engagement photos two weeks ago and I love how they turned out. Seriously so pretty. The day was perfect. We meet in the morning around nine a.m. with our photographer (the same we shot our Christmas card picutres with). It was already warm and sunny and overall such a nice start of the day.

I know we got engaged in December but I wanted to have my engagement photos with flowers and a springish background and since there was still snow until about 6 weeks ago we couldn´t get them any earlier.

But I am really happy how they turned out. We are such good looking people. Just kidding 😉

I wanted to have a classic wedding related look for my photos so I choose this ivory white etui dress I got from the H&M sale section some time ago. The shoes I am wearing are my actual wedding shoes (read more about my choice here). I paired them with the dress cause they matched perfectly and I also have to break them in by time.

Florian was wearing a black dinner jacket from H&M and a matching button down to my dress from Olymp. We swear by their button downs. They are hands down the best you could get. Affordable, great quality and such a range to choose from. The rest was kept quite simple. Nice black shoes and pair of of dark denim jeans. Such a handsome hubby to be.

Thanks for stopping by.Take care. See you.

Fashion trend – metallic mules….

Hi guys,

isn´t it great that sometimes even basic pieces can be comfortable and even fashionable? It definitely is.

Mules had their comeback last summer but I think they are going to have their high this Spring/Summer. From introducing a new trend until people are fond of it and are going to wear it time flies by but if you have really cool pieces they last more than one season.

I got this pair of silver mules from Tom Tailor and not only are they super cool and en vogue they totally remind me of a high class designer with the horsebit-detail across the front and the shape. 
I paired it with a totally casual and comfortable but not boring look. Got this pair of cropped raw hem jeans in the mail a few weeks ago and it is finally warm enough to wear them.

The cardigan is from the Zara special price section and available in five more colors. Sometimes a basic staple piece can also make an outfit look special.
The lace top I am wearing in this post is from an Italian market at Lago di Garda. A white shirt combined to an all blue look leaves such a fresh touch.

Thanks for stopping by. Take care. See you.

Summer fashion trends with Zaful…

Keine Kommentare

….

Hi guys,

since we are heading to beautiful Lake Garda for our summer vacation in June I am am browsing up and down through the web to find cute pieces and great fashion trends at an affordable price point.

For today´s post I am teaming up with Zaful to share my top 3 summer fashion trends with you.


#1 – yellow
Despite the fact that ultra violet is the color of the year 2018 I really love yellow in the summer. It is such a happy color and immidiately lifts your mood so why not getting a midi dress like the floral slit smocked off shoulder midi dress in this gorgeous hue. This yellow beauty is a dreamy summer dress you can wear at the beach or exploring a city or dress it up for dinner since the material is so light and airy. It has a subtle side slit which makes it even more interesting. The flower print on the yellow is just adorable and the best (at least for me) is that you can wear it off the shoulder. 

#2 – jumpsuit
Jumpsuits are a great alternative to wearing a dress. If you are not comfortable or like wearing dresses try a jumpsuit. They are super chic and can also be worn on so many ocassions. The one I picked would is the slit wide leg stripes floral jumpsuit and would be perfect for a dinner at the beach or for sitting outside a fancy bar enjoying an Aperol Spritz and watching people pass by. Stripes will never go out of style trust me on that so you possibly can´t go wrong on this piece. The back is terrific and I don´t mind that there where added a few flowers to the print either.

#3 – polka dots
Although I am a huge print lover over here I have two or three I am totally adoring and wearing over any other and polka dots are one them. I have never met a polka dot I didn´t like so I got them all. This polka dot cami summer dress (way to short for a dress but perfect lenght as a camisole) is super cute and be dressed in so many ways. You could wear it with a denim skirt and wedges throughout the day or you could wear it with with palazzo pants and heels at night. There is restriction for this print and it is super versatile. Also if you aren´t a fan of red it is available in black and blue too.

I hope I could give you some style inspiration for your next vacation. I am definitely going to get some of the pieces so stay tuned for the full look.

Thanks for stopping by. Take care. See you.
