5 Product Tag

Hello beauties!

Lately I have been seeing the “5-product Tag” post by fellow beauty bloggers and liked it very much and decided to do it myself.



These 5 products that I am going to show you do not change much, between summer and winter because they are my favorite everyday  makeup products all year long.

Let’s start!

    1.  Garnier BB Cream for combination skin in medium



This BB cream was a surprise for me as I have tried other higher end brands and did not suit my skin. But this one is very light, doesn't make me shiny, lasts all day with 1-2 powder touch ups, has a pretty good coverage and hasn't caused me any breakouts. 
I love it. I wear it every day and sometimes, if my skin is ok, even at my going out makeup.
The only thing I do not like is the rather intense alcohol smell once you apply it.

  1. MAC Paint Pot in painterly


Anything I say about this product, it will never be enough. I am in love with it.
I wear it alone to brighten my lids when not wearing any eyeshadows.
I wear it as a base when doing everything else. Day or Night.
This means I wear it every single day. I have other shades as well but this one is my favorite for the variety of its uses.

  1. Maybelline The Falsies Black Drama Mascara


I was loyal to another brand for years but one time I was short of cash and needed mascara asap and  thought I would buy one cheaper just for an emergency.  And I got my hands to this one.
And never looked back.
I like my lashes pretty dramatic when doing eye makeup and this mascara fulfills my wish.
Volume, Length, Intense Color, Drama, Durability. What else is there to ask?

  1. Make Up For Ever Mat Bronzer in #230


I was in the search of a good bronzer for a long time. 
Don’t be fooled. This is not the only bronzer I own but surely is one of my favorite.
I bought it during sales and when starting using it, appeared in patches after a while and caused me a breakout…….and I almost had a breakdown.
As I had irritated skin due to sun and sea, I put it aside and told myself I would try again I a month.
The days passed and I gave it another go. 
It was perfect, long lasting and perfect color match. I love it.

  1. Estee Lauder Cream Blush in 04 berry light  & H&M blush in dazzling peach.


I apologize for putting two products in the same category but it is one of the those that do change during the change of season.
So I have been wearing H&M blush all summer because it as one the most beautiful peachy, with a slight sheen to it, colors I have ever tried. It blends beautifully with the bronzer and has incredible ling lasting power.
In winter I usually wear this beautiful cream blush that gives my cheeks a healthy glow, not shine, and a splash of color. It blends easily though is not very long lasting. 
I love it though because of its dusty pink-mauve shade which is my favorite.

Well, these are my favorite 5 products that I could not live without and use every day.

Is any of them one of your favorite too? Do tell!

As always,

Stay healthy & beautiful

H&M Blushers Review

Hello my beauties!

How are you? How are you handling with this hot weather? I am hoping near the sea!

Today I am going to talk to you about my beloved H&M blushers! I discovered them about a year ago in one of my many visits to the H&M and I loved them. I have many many blushes, as all of you I suppose, but I keep reaching for my H&M blushes. They are very pigmented, blend really well on your skin and last forever! I have MAC blushes which I love but somehowmost of the times I prefer these ones. 
I have already told you about my love for the H&M Bronzer (check review here ) and now it is time to tell you about their blushes. 

I have three of them and I am planning to buy more.

Tawny Rose, Sweet Rose, Dazzling Peach

no flash
All three have a nice shimmer. Tawny Rose has has a metallic finish, Sweet Rose a shimmery finish and Dazzling Peach a sheeny finish.

My Bronzing Powders

Hello my beauties!

I hope you are well even though the temperature is trying to kill us!

Anyway, today I will talk to you about bronzing powders, one of my most favourite items ever since I discovered it.
It is something about the healhy glow that sun gives us, which unfortunately it is the exact opposite, that makes us want to have it all year long. But even in summer when we all get some colour, we always try to intensify it! I am telling you. Bronzing Powders are sent to us by the Sun himself!

Below I will show you the ones in my make up case right now and of course my Bronzing Powders Wish List. Let's start.


1. H&M Bronzing Powder, Face and Body Bronzer


This is the bronzer I reach out first every day. It is hard to believe it as it's a low price cosmetic line from a clothes store but it really works. It is not too intense so you can build it up. It has a staying power that wil surprise you and the colour suites every skintone except from the too dark. 
I have it for almost a year, I use it every day and as you can see it is like it is brand new. It lasts forever. 
I would give it a go if I ere you.
price approx. 6 euros






2. Clinique Superbalanced Powder Bronzer in bronzed 1


The first bronzer I ever got was a Clinique one so when I was sent the new bronzer I was thrilled. 
As you can see it is compressed inside and as soon as you twist it, fresh bronzing powder is released in the amount you need for one time.
As the rest Superbalanced line products, this powder claims to mentain the skin's humidity while controling the excess oil.
The only thing you need to take notice is that you have to apply it carefully and with confident motions as it tends to leave patches otherwise.
price approx. 38.50 euros




3. Face of Australia Blush in Terra



A while ago I took part to a Beauty Swap where we were matched to a beauty blogger from all over the world and we would exchange beauty products from our country. My match was Megan from Australia.
Among the things she sent me, view post here, was this gorgeous blush in a sweet pinkish terracota colour. 
I love it. It fits perfect my fair medium skintone.
The brush picks up a lot of product so I have to be sure that I tap the brush before starting applying.






4. Gosh Bronzing Shimmer Brush in 102

I think you will all agree with me when I say that a shimmer bronzing powder is essential in our make up bag!
Of course I do not use it everyday but when I am doing a special coctail's night out I put on this powder and the whole bar is at my feet! no kidding.
My sister bought this shimmer bronzing powder from her trip in Ireland and I thank her for that. I have to be careful when applying it though as it is tooooo shimmer and the first time I tried it on I looked like a discoball. But as soon as I got the hand of it I became the Disco Queen!


And as for my Bronzing Powders Wish List?



Guerlain Terracotta Light Sheer Bronzing Powder











Chanel Soleil Tan de Chanel Moisturising Bronzing Powder









Physicians Formula Bronze Booster Glow Season to Season Bronzer









So that is all for Bronzing Powders. At least for now!

Which ones are your favourites?
Which ones do you crave?


Stay healthy & beautiful
