Best of primer – concealer – foundation – an unbeatable trio….


….



Hi guys,

(post contains affiliate links/Werbung/Markennennung/Beitrag enthält Affiliate Links-not sponsored)

today´s post is long overdue but I had to try out everything first cause I am never showing stuff I didn´t try before.


I am showing you my favorite make-up products for a fresh and even look on your face. These are my absolute favorites so I am always rotating around these ones. It is all about foundation, primer, concealer and highlighter today.


So let´get this started….

prep and prime

Preparation is everything for a succesful base. I am currently using the L´oréal Hydra Genius face lotion. I don´t need a thick and heavy face lotion for summer to stay hydrated so this is perfect.

After that I am applying this primer called matte face base from Kiko Milano to my face. This is the best primer I have ever tried. It has a super thick consistency when you apply it but that goes away pretty quick and your make-up is staying and important for me it is staying matte. And it smells so good.


Another one I have tried is the Infailable Primer from L´oréal Paris. It is in the same price range. It is not as thick as the Kiko one and the smell isn´t as good but it is alright and it leaves a smooth feel on your skin. 



cover and hide

Next step is to apply my concealer – I know it is highly discussed if you need to apply it first or after make-up, I apply it before but you can do whatever is right for you – the L´oréal Infailable Total Cover palette. It has multiple shades also a green one to erase blemishes. The coverage is pretty good. I can use the first two shade for winter and summer. It goes on pretty smooth. 


 I am also using the Full Coverage Concealer from Kiko. It has kind of a hard consistency so I am using this mostly for under my eyes or for spots I need to cover.

My foundation is currently from Dior. It is the Diorskin Forever foundation in color 030. It is a little pricey but in my opinion it is worth every cent. It has a shine control which I appreciate very much and it also has SPF which is pretty important since I don´t have SPF in my face lotion. The foundation sets in very nice and it is buildable without having a mask effect.

 I also love the Vichy Dermablend foundation so much. I am using the color 25 Nude. The foundation leaves a total matte effect and it lasts pretty long. It is teint correcting which I like very much and you can cove almost everything you want to hide.

I have also been using the HD Liquid Coverage Foundation from Catrice as a back up. It is a low price drug store foundation but in my opinion it is pretty good.


For summer month or when I am on vacation I am only using a BB creme. Mine is the Garnier Miracle Skin BB Creme in the light shade. I had one from Manhattan earlier but I didn´t not like it at all.

To get everything set I am using the 2in1 Perfect Teint Powder from Manhattan in Sunbeige at the moment and in Beige in the winter months. I have been using the like forever and I still like it. It has more coverage than a normal powder cause of the 2in1 which I really need. And it also has a mattifying effect.

define and shine

My favorite blushes are the Maybelline Rouge and Highlighter Palette and the essence Mosaic blush and one of my absolute favorite palette is from Kiko Milano (it smells like white chocolate and also looks like this). 


Two of the highlighters I am using are from Catrice. The Catrice Eyeshadow Highlighter Pen and the Catrice Glow Highlighter Powder. Both of them are very pigmented so you better use them with caution unless you want to be very sparkly and shimmery. 


I also use the face pearls from AVON in the pearly pink shade. This is a mixture between a blush and a highlighter. I really love this one cause you get the perfect mix when you are applying it. 


The third highlighter I am using is the NYX born to glow Illuminator. It is kind of a paste and I first had to get used to it. But now I really like it. I am mostly using it for my eyes.

set and go 
I am always switching between the Kiko Milano setting spray (the smell is so good) and the nyx Matte finish setting spray . They are both pretty equal.

 These are my top make up products I am using over and over again.


Do you have any staple procuts you love ?

Thanks for stopping by. 

Take care. See you.

Hi dolls and happy Monday,

(post contains affiliate links/Werbung/Markennennung/Beitrag enthält Affiliate Links-not sponsored)

since it is so hot everyday and we are swimming so often I thought  would share What I got in my beach bag today.

I got this shopper from bonprix and it makes the best beach bag ever. The stripes and the braided handles and the cute pink anchor print are just perfect. I added this super big and soft towel with anchor prints to my nautical theme.


When we are at the lake or just out swimming I am usually carrying the same things with me. 
A sun protection spray (I love Ambre Solaire from Garnier, the smell is so good and it isn´t sticky at all), of course blotting papers cause I don´t wanna glow that much, a lip balm with spf to protect your lips from drying out, a hand desinfection gel cause we all know how disgusting restrooms can be, my tangle teezer brush to tame my beach hair, a nail file in case of chiping nails and a refreshing water spray which makes a fine mist in a  lime scent.


My cover up is from SheIn and I love it. It is so beautiful.I  have paired it with a pair of shorts here but if you are small like me (1,64 m / ) it fits as a short dress too.


What are your beach favorites to take with you ?


Thanks for stopping by. 


Take care. See you.

To wear or not to wear BLUE lipstick….

….

Hi dolls,
(post contains affiliate links/Werbung/Markennennung/Beitrag enthält Affiliate Links-not sponsored)
a few days ago I was at our local drug store to have a look at new products and to stock up some things for vacation and guess what I found – BLUE LIPSTICKS. Not only one but some more from different brands. I am familiar to black lipstick and I have seen plenty of looks from the fashion week shows for fall and winter trends and I would probably use it for Halloween. I also love wearing a deep purple shade for the darker months and I also wear a lot of dark redish tones but I don´t think I can warm up with the blue tones and let´s be honest I love trends but I don´t want to go after every trend. I want to stay my personal style true so if one trend doesn´t fit I wait for another. 
If you want to check it out I found a “How to wear” from Maybelline. Essence also has a blue lipstick in their current trend edition. MAC also offers a deep Indigo shade.

What are your thoughts on blue lipsticks – trashy or trendy ?

Thanks for stopping by.
