I am obsessed with eye palettes. There is something about having lots of options in one place that just makes me feel good and risking sounding a bit weird – safe.
Makeup Revolution is renowned for having an amazing (and vast) selection of eye palettes to cater to all tastes – without breaking the budget – and the Iconic Pro 2 is no different.
Timeless Beauty is indeed a very appropriate name for Dame’s Joan Collins‘s beauty line, for obvious reasons. At 81, whatever her secret is, I want a piece of it.
Of course, you all know I cannot say no to a red lipstick, so this was a clever move to get me on their side.
Olivia Palermo for Ciaté – image from Elle UK
Nail brand Ciaté’s creative director for 2015 is Olivia Palermo. That means there are some new ail polish shades coming…
Starting with the packaging, it is still Ciaté’s curves rectangle, but it has a luxury feel – a touch of gold and some pretty box.
What a weird name, eh? But the colours are inspired on vintage laundromats, so it’s ok!
The MAC Wash & Dry collection, which is full of vibrant and fresh colours has already launched in the UK – the laundromat is indeed open for business!
More leopard on the blog! Yay! I never tire of that print, but it is nice to get some variation…. so we have lilac!
This mani was still from when I was in Brasil and it is another one from Rosângela, the “family” manicurist. As i emntioend before, she has a huge range of lovely nail art “stickers”; they are actually hand painted by another lady on base coat and plastic, and Rô buys them to apply on to clients’ nails.
The nail polish is a beautiful shade of lilac called Lavanda from Ana Hickmann; it is creamy with some light silvery sheen to it.
Although it is leopard print, I found this quite delicate and discreet, as animal print go. I think applying the design over colour made it stand out less. Love it!
Face masks are fantastic. Not only are they good for your skin, but they are also for your soul: is that moment that you can unwind, relax, treat yourself.
And this Caudalie Glycolic Peel Mask does more than pampering, it exfoliates!
The sun is teasing us – it is actually making appearances but the super chill in the air means my body is still in a wintery mood.
However, my mind is saying GO! to spring!
I am a typical case of dipping energy – I usually feel sleepy until 11am, then perk up fr a few hours only to dip again at around 3pm…
After trying their hand cream, I also found a good friend in the new this works energy bank breathe in, a lovely oil roll-on designed to be applied on the pulses for an aromatic energy boost.
When talking about beauty, I think it is pretty fundamental that we talk about all the accessories.
Washbags are very much essential, as it makes sure you carry your lovely beauty arsenal everywhere.
