My monthly beauty favorites for May and June tested by myself….

…..

Hi guys,

 (post contains affiliate links/Werbung/Markennennung/Beitrag enthält Affilate Links-not sponsored)
I haven´t done a monthly favorites since April so today I am suming up both months for a big beauty favorites post with all the products I had tried in the last two months.

In fact I thought it would have got more items but these are all.

Maybelline color drama lip contour palette
 This is something I was really curious for cause I love love love lipsticks and lipproducts. So when I first saw it (there are two different palettes available) and read that you could create an ombre lip styles I was head over heels. 
This products doesn´t disappoint. You can create some really cool lip styles with this.

L´oréal Hydra Genius Aloe Water face lotion
#drinkforyourskin
This has become my staple face lotion for summer. It really is a must for me. My skin feels hydrated and stays hydrated so I don´t have any dry areas anymore. After applying I don´t have a sticky feeling on my skin so I can apply my make-up right after. It is available for three different skin types. I am using the one for oily and mixed skin.
 
Maybelline Master Blush Kit
This is something I personally would love to get for a vacation. A palette with a few different shades of blush so I am fitted for a few days away without taking my whole make-up with me. I got this cause it has a highligher color in the kit which is matching perfectly with all the other shades in the kit.

Manhattan lipstick
Manhattan has released their summer colors and I am in love with this shade. It is called spicy red and it is kind of an orang redish tone. Perfect for summer in my opinion cause I am wearing a classic red shade all the year round.


L´oréal Paris double extension mascara
Since I am not wearing fake eyelashes every day anymore I am searching for a way to get longer lashes in a short time so I decided to try out this mascara. It has two sides – a white paste with a brush to extend your lashes. After letting the white paste dry you can apply a second layer or you brush it with the black side of the mascara. I like using it but it takes a while to dry but it is effective. 


L´oréal Paris line refine expression kajal
Usually I am not using a kajal pen but I gave this one a try and I am not quite sure til today. It has a really soft tip but the black is not as black as I would like it and I am not as comfortable using it as a thought cause it smudges but that might be cause my eyes tear sometimes.


L´oréal Paris La Nude eyeshadow palette
I purchases this one for traveling cause usually I am using the Coastal Scents 88 Warm Palette but I didn´t want to take such a big one with me when I am only using the same 5 shades I am always using so I got this small one and it is perfect. Not only that it has all the colors you need, the colors have a great pigmentation too. I don´t like the brush which is included but you can switch this one easily.


NoOps kit
I have found this one through conincidence. I just was looking for a super cute beauty bag and that is why I got this. When it arrived and I unpacked it is was so small but after opening it I was impressed. There is so much stuff in it. It is like an beauty SOS kit. It includes a scrunchy, 4 hairpins, a nailfile, blotting paper, tooth picks, a top coat, refreshment sheets, make-up remover wipes, lip balm and a sewing set. It is incredible how full it is packed. You really need this to be prepared.

Thanks for stopping by. 


Take care. See you.

Hi guys,
 (post contains affiliate links/Werbung/Markennennung/Beitrag enthält Affilate Links-not sponsored)
since travel season is in its fullest and we are also on vacation in two weeks I started to get some of the beauty items together I want to take with me. We are going to travel by car so I am not really limited regarding the space or the number of things I am taking with me but lots of you are travelling by plane so I wanted to structure this unitary for everyone. 
So let´s get over to packing. Since last year I am always taking a hair dryer in travel size with me. We had the worst hair dryers even at great hotels (or none) and I just feel more comfortable using my own. I got the Remington on the go hair dryer.

 Another small zipper bag I am taking with me is this one from Douglas. It fits the theme really nice as it says “time to travel”. I am storing all the small stuff we are taking with us like medicine, my dietary supplement, cleaning wipes for glasses, scissors and tweezers etc. 


One more product I found for all the bigger bottles which don´t fit into another case is this one from amazon. It looks like the case of a sleeping bag from the outside but it really fits a lot.

Now we are heading over to the beauty department. I always purchase the products we are using in a travel size. First of all they are not as big and as heavy as the originals and they are super cute. It depends on where you are heading but make sure to take sun-protection with you. This is very important for your skin, you won´t get a sunburn in your vacation. This would be too bad.
When I am on vacation I a not using eyeshadow on a regular base so I am just taking a small palette with some nude shades like the L´oréal Paris The Nudes with me. Speaking of applying eyeshadow, the brushes I need are stored in this beautiful pink brush case.  
For removing my make-up I am taking the Tea Tree Make-up Remover Wipes from The Body Shop with me. They leave your face super clean and with a nice and fresh feeling. Also I am adjusting my face lotion to the climate whether is a dry air or the humidity is very high. To avoid breakouts caused by bacterias I am bringing my own face towels with me cause you never know what products they use for washing. 

What are your go-to products ?
Take care. See you.

Casual Saturday #4….



….



Hello and happy Saturday everybody,

 (post contains affiliate links/Werbung/Markennennung/Beitrag enthält Affilate Links-not sponsored)
We are preparing for mothers day over here so I don´t know where to start cause in fact we didn´t do anything else important.The week was short for both of us. Florian only worked until Tuesday and I did until Thursday. We had several appointments so it was easier to take days off. 
I had line dance on Monday and on Tuesday so nothing else happened there. On Wednesday we where invited to Florian´s cousins birthday party. Thank god it was a warm day and still warm in the evening cause you can´t attend an outside party with bad weather. I got a Coastal Scents Go Cairo palette and a flower bouquet as a present. You can never go wrong with flowers and I knew that she liked make-up and I got her this L´oréal eyeshadow palette in nude beige. The nude shades are a staple for every girls make-up drawer. 

The yearly fun fair started yesterday and I wanted to go so bad because I need to get updated and restocked on new spices. They have a little wooden store where they sell the best spices I have found so far. The problem is that they attend only two times a year so I have to know upfront what I need. 
 I ended up buying a lot. 
 House:
We set up our patio furniture last weekend and I love how it turned out (plannig a separate post about it soon). We got lots of fresh and colorful flowers. Now Summer can finally come. Now the only thing I am still looking are deckchairs. I already have a small table from Polywood. A red one, so I am not quite sure if I take two red or two grey deckchairs.


Food:
I only tried out two new recipes. I was curious about the egg roll in a bowl recipe I have seen so many times all over social media. So I had to try out this one cause who doesn´t love egg rolls.

The second one are baked burritos. I have read about it some time ago and with all the Cinquo de Mayo posts it came back in mind. You fill your burritos with all the ingredients you want to have in them and then you put them into a baking dish. Sprinkle some grated cheese on top (you can also use cheddar but I wanted gouda cheese) and put it into the oven for about 30 minutes (or just how you like it – I want a real crispy cheese crust). Really simple and so so delicious.


Shopping:
I have been eyeing with a few things but I am still not quite sure about it. It would be this bag. I love it but who needs a black one in Summer. 
Another thing I have been thinking about is this pair of studded heels. I already have the baby blue one and I like wearing them so much.

!function(doc,s,id){ var e, p, cb; if(!doc.getElementById(id)) { e = doc.createElement(s); e.id = id; cb = new Date().getTime().toString(); p = ‘//shopsensewidget.shopstyle.com/widget-script.js?cb=1494669596045?cb=’ + cb; e.src = p; doc.body.appendChild(e); } if(typeof window.ss_shopsense === ‘object’){ if(doc.readyState === ‘complete’){ window.ss_shopsense.init(); } } }(document, ‘script’, ‘shopsensewidget-script’);                  

So here is what I ordered this week. A bikini with a palm tree print and I am so looking forward to this. It is the ultimate Summer pattern for me (sorry flamingos) and a beach blanket for our Summer vacation. It is a round one so I am pretty excited how it turns out.
Also two off-the-shoulder dresses, an orange one with short sleeves and a gingham one with long sleeves. 

TV: 
There wasn´t really anything this week I was interested in. I have seen that Game of Thrones is going to be continued in July so there´s this. I have watched Peter Pan (the Disney movie) and I still love it. It is my favorite Disney movie back when I was a child and until now. 


Thanks for stopping by. 

Take care. See you.
