My 2013 Favorites

Hello :)

 

Today I'm sharing with you my 2013 beauty and random favorites. 

1. Skincare: My absolute favorite is this Avon Clearskin pore penatrating peeling. I've been using it through the whole year and it has became an irreplaceable product in my skincare routine.

2. Skincare: The L'oreal Hydra Active 3 micelar solution has been a dream for taking off makeup, it is probably the second best thing after the amazing Bioderma H2O.

3. Face: BB creams were big this year too and the Deborah Milano 5 in 1 left a big stamp on me. It is by far one of the best drugstore BB creams I've ever tried. I will keep repurchasing it for sure.

4. Face: Catrice LE Illuminating Base made me fall in love with highlighters and has been my dear companion through this year. We glowed into the night together !

5. Face: I was finally able to try the Collection 2000 concealer. And yes as you all know it is the best ever. I have to get it again. 

6. Eyes: The Sleek Vintage Romance palette found it's way to our hearts with it's goregeus jewel toned eye shadows. This palette has became a must have for a night out. 

7. Eyes: 2013 was the year that the Color Tattoos came to Slovenian drugstores. Since then I don't think there's been a day that I haven't used these as a base or just on their own.

8. Eyes: Maybelline mascaras have always been my favorites, but the Rocket stood out for me this year. It makes my lashes look great. I love that it gives me both length and volume. 

9. Eyes: This was one of the first products I tried from MUA. I love the formulation of this eyeliner. It's creamy and it glides on very well. I love lining my upper lash line for a smokey look.

10. Lips: Another discovery in 2013 were the new Essence lipsticks. I got two shades for now but I'm sure I'll be purchasing more. Very pigmented and very creamy.

11. Face: For pale girls bronzers are extremely hard to find. That is why I opted for this Catrice Multi Colored powder and I use it as a bronzer for a natural sun kissed look. 

12. Nails: In early fall I made my first Essie purchase. This one is in the shade Twin sweater set and it is the perfect all year round red color. It's been my favorite nailpolish ever since I bought it.

13. Nails: In 2013 I discovered the Golden Rose Jolly Jewels glitter nailpolishes. I own 4 of these and I love them all but this rosegold one is by far my favorite. If you have the chance to try them please do, you will be amazed.

14. Random: I love when my room smells nice and cozy, I mean who doesn't :)

I love using this Yankee Candle waxes. I do have a little obsession over them which has turned a shelf of my vanity into a mini wax collection. These are just some that I love. I'm currently burning the rest of my Christmas Memories wax.

15. Food: My breakfast consists of coffee and a bowl of these lovely Flakes. They taste amazing and they aren't the worst thing for your body. I love to eat them with milk or greek yogurt and add some banana to them.

16. Food: I do add honey to my bowl of cereal too. 

This one has been my favorite this year. I've been through so many that I can't even count. I love honey so much and I sweeten everything I can with it. 

17. Drink: My second favorite drink after coffee is tea. And my all time favorite tea has to be this Good Nature - Apple & Cinnamon tea. Those are two of my favorite things combined in a tea. Could life even get better? :)

Those were all the things I loved and enjoyed in 2013 and I'm sure I'll keep enjoying them in 2014. 

Are you familiar with this products and if you are, which are your favorites? 

I'm excited to read your comments.

A Night Out look : Sparkling Champagne

"A night out? A girls night out ?! - Please count me in!"

Yes I love getting all dressed up and dolled up. I'm just a girl that loves to go out with her girlfriends and  talk all night about boys, love, fashion, makeup and all those girly things. And last saturday night turned out to be just that type of nights. 

These are the products I used to achieve my look: 

1. Essence I love stage - eyeshadow base

2. Essence Superfine eyeliner pen

3. Sleek MakeUP palette - 601 Au Naturel

How to get the look: 

Step 1: Prime your eyelids with a primer. I used Essence's I love stage eyeshadow base.

Step 2: Apply a shimmery champagne eyeshadow all over the lid and in the inner corner of the eye. I used the eyeshadow in the color Taupe.

Step 3: Using a blending brush lightly apply a warm beige-brown eyeshadow in the crease to create a base for the darker eyeshadows. I mixed Cappuccino and Toast to get this color.

Step 4: To darken the look use a dark brown eyeshadow with purple undertones. I used the color Regal from the palette.

Step 5: Use any light color as a highlight. For this step I used Nougat.

Step 6: Take an angled brush and a black eyeshadow to line your eyes and flick the wing upwards. For this step I used Noir. 

Step 7: Follow the lines of the black eyeshadow by using a liquid eyeliner over it. I used the Essence Superfine eyeliner. 

Step 8: Top it off with your favorite mascara. Mine at the moment is Maybelline's Collosal Volume Mascara.

Step 9 (optional): Under the lower lash line I used Noir in my outer corner, Taupe in the inner corner and to connect them I used Regal. 

Step 10: Frame your face by doing your brows and choose an eyeshadow that suits you. I mixed up Cappuccino and Bark to get my color.

All the rest is up to you, you can use a bold lip with a pinky blush or just go for a all natural look with a little bronzing powder and a nude lip.

Quick Web Haul + review

Hello there :)
Today I decided to stop procrastinating and finally sit down to write this blog.
A while ago I got a few things from Licila.si .

Products I got :
1. The Sleek limited edition palette - Glory
2. A BYS lipgloss 
3. Everyday Minerals long handle Kabuki brush

Review: 

1. Sleek Glory palette 

I fell in love with this palette the moment I saw it. It has a neutral range of colors and plus a colorful range. 

I love both although I use more the neutral ones. Also the pigmentation of the eyeshadows is great. 

I will do an detailed review with swatches soon.

2. BYS lipgloss

This product came as a gift from the web shop. 

I love the color and all but it is just not my type of lipgloss. It has a lot of sparkle and glitter which is more suitable for a night out look.

3. The Kabuki brush

I don't even know where to begin with this, but I was so excited to find this brush on sale. 
I've been wanting for a while to invest some money into a nice face brush and this was the perfect match for me. For a log time I wanted the Everyday Minerals flat top brush, but this one was on sale at the moment so I went ahead an got it. 

I'm extremely satisfied with the brush. It work amazing with my foundations and I love the finish it gives me. I love that it is a dense and soft brush. I simply love everything about it and I recommend to you to purchase it and try it. 

So that is it for today,
xoxo D.
