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.
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.
I am all about stripes, throughout the whole year but there is something about stripes and summer which brings such an easy and fashionable touch for these kinds of outfits. Summer and stripes make the perfect couple.
I got this polo shirtdress from H&M. It has the typical piqueé fabric a polo shirt has and theses adorable blue and white stripes. A total classic and staple piece for my wardrobe.
I paired it with a jeans jacket and and a pair of white espandrilles for a more casual look.
What do you think about stripes? They have become a real closet staple in my eyes.
usually most people are on vacation during the summer months. Flying to culturel places or laying down by the sea but this is not granted or always possible. Many people can´t go on vacation maybe they won´t get this much time off or there isn´t enough money left for a trip.
So today I am sharing my 5 tips on getting as much summer feeling as possible without laying by the sea at Cabo San Lucas.
1. Wear your summer clothes wherever you go – whether it is to the grocery store, the city or to any kind of appointment. It gives you a different feel when you are wearing a flattering and airy and bright colored summerdress.
2. Get a deckchair and a palmtree for your patio or your balcony and go outside as much as possible. Laying in there with a drink and a straw hat in the sun completely changes your mood.
3. Decorate your home for summer. There are so many cute options with palm prints or flamingo prints. You can read my post about it here.
4. Choose your summer drink. There are new creations every year and at the end of trying there is always one which tastes best. I made this rosé wine with russian wild berry lemonade and raspberries my winner. It is an old recipe from Monika Hibbs´s blog. I just love her creations.
5. Get some cute summer pieces for your wardrobe. I recently ordered this straw hat which says „chasing the sun….“ from ASOS and this palm print bikini from SheIn. These are perfect pieces for you Summer atmosphere and really affordable.
Hope there is something which let´s you forget about the fact that you are at home in your vacation even it is just for a while.
